ACTIVITY AND SUCCESS

Eternal vigilance is called the
price of liberty. The saying was
originated by John Philpot Curran,
an Irish statesman of century ago.
1t fits so completely into any demo-
cratic form of government, that it
has become one of our most quoted
maxims. If the citizens of a country
do not keep actively at work to pre-
serve their liberties, these liberties
disappear.
One could make a companion
piece to that aphorism, applicable
to our results in business and in
dustry, by saying that eternal ac-
tivity is the price of success. Peo-
pie can never rest on their past sue
cesses. They can't stop and say that
they have done well so far and can
now afford to slack up on their eff
forts. If they do, they find what
they have achieved slipping away
away from them, and more active
people getting ahead of them.
That principle applies particular
ly in the field of retail distribution.
A business concern has to keep &C
lively at work in order to attain any
success or hold that success after it
is attained. The competition is no
where more severe. A lot of con-
Germs have to quit because they do
not maintain a sufficient degree of
activity.
That activity consists not merely
in buying goods carefully, and serv-
ing the needs of customers faithful
ly, but there needs to be a very ac-
tive campaign to solicit the interest
of the public. A concern that just
adopts passive policy of waiting
until business comes to it, fails to
give that impression of activity. 1t
seems to lack an element of vigorous
push, and people are not attracted
to it as they might be.
Newspaper advertising provides
the means by which this activity OBJ
tains results. Any concern that
uses it impresses the public that it
has the active, enterprising, pushing
spirit that people demand of modern
business.

Milford, Friday, February 2S, 1880

THE FIVE DAY PERIOD Of abb
normal high temperature for Febru-
airy weather reached its highest rec
ord last Tuesday, February rs, when
the mercury climbed to 70 degrees
above zero. For five consecutive
days it climbed steadily. Homes
were opened for air circulation both
day and night, as if it were. sum-
mer.
The spring flowers in gardens
and along protected roadsides,
bloomed. The "crocus," the 'jon-
quils," dandelions and yellow jas
mine, were found everywhere in this
part Of Delaware.
A warm south wind prevailed
most of the time, with but a light
rainfall to supply a warm moisture.
Many folks sat on porches with
out coats, or wraps and found the
sunshine soothing.
Those who visited the bayshore at
Slaughter Beach and other resorts,
found the sun and sand soothing
and a relaxation from the former
winter cold; while children enjoy
ed the visits as if summer was at
hand.
On Wednesday the wind came
from the east and sent the mercury
down to about so degrees; but, make
no mistake, winter and cold winds
will be with this part of Delaware
for two or more weeks, before
spring weather will be with US for
its seasonable period.

THE TELEPHONE INDUSTRY
has made an amazing record in i'm
proving and broadening its service
to the public, and at the same time
lowering rates.
Within three years four major re-
auctions have been made in long dis
lance rates which are saving the
public almost $15,OOO,OOO annually.
The last Of these reductions went in
to effect January list.
Thus the industry lives up to its
motto: To provide the best possible
service at the lowest possible cost.
Today we can talk to almost any
great country in the world. Long
distance calls from one corner OF the
United States to another are COM
monplace. In fraction of a second
a voice is carried thousands of miles,
unaffected by any physical obstacle.
The telephone has made social and
diplomatic, as well as industrial his
tory.

EQUAL TREATMENT FOR ALL

EQUAL TREATMENT FOR ALL
The prolonged debate in the SEN
ate over the tariff has brought out
bitter feeling between the different
sections and industrial interests. 1t
is charged by one element that the
districts depending upon factory in
dustries have neglected and discrim-
mated against the interests of the
farmers. On the other hand it is
charged that the agricultural dis
tricts are concerned only with their
own interests, and ignore the trou-
bles of the manufacturing indust-
ries.
Any congressman who looks only
to the welfare of his own state, and
neglects the welfare of other sec
tions, is pursuing a course that is
bound to create trouble for the whole
country. 1t will destroy business in
ceartain localities, and thus tend to
create widespread depression.
1t takes a big man to hold fairly
the balance between sections, and to
feel just as keenly the needs of dis
tricts far distant from his own, as
those Of his own immediate locality.
The political party that is able to
take the broadcast national view of
these questions, is the one that will
rule the country. The country as a
whole will not tolerate any party or
that seeks only the welfare
of limited sections or limited inter-
ests.
The statesmen should be urged to
study the needs of all sections with
full impartiality. They need to read
the newspapers, and to study the adj
dresses of politicians and business
leaders from all over the country, so
as to get this national point of view. |
To reconcile all elements and Sec
tons of our great nation requires |
more craftsmanship and breadth of |
view than it does to produce har-
nony and unity in smaller countries
ike those of Europe.
