If you know the location of any
war veterans grave will you be good
enough to call it to the attention of
any comrade of Sussex Post. AS in
past years Sussex Post will decor

come out when the ladies meet with
the Post.

WAKE UP-IF YOU CAN'T SLEEP

Health is one of the best things
that human being has! A lot of
business men who were swatted by
the general economic conditions, or
were caught in the mess of the stock
market smash, have had their noses
so close to the grindstone for the
past few months that many of them
are suffering from that rundown
feeling, which is often misnamed
spring fever. Florida was a long
ways off for many of them, but very
fortunately the mental, nervous and
physical relaxation that is due them,
is to be found nearer by in Atlantic
City, with it's warm sun and mildly
invigorating air. With opportunities
for agreeable, healthful exercise,
and an abundance of wholesome
food, and the rare privilege of liv-
ing in the characterization Hall
most hOme-like and comfortable es-
adjustments ON the Eastern sea-
board, there are all kinds of con-
ditions that carry with them the
greatest possible benefits to be Ce-
rived from a change of scenes and
interests, at good old Atlantic City.
Assuming that winter colds, at
tacks of the grippe, and similar cold
weather ailments are now unseason- |
able. and that the man wrote the |
truth, who said: Insomnia is the |
of people who are asleep
their wakefulness is the only
thing that they are awake to
they are asleep to both the cause
and the cure the cause is usu-
ally over-work the cure is re-
taxation and salt air"-then, the
thing to do is to find the answer.
The same man who wrote the above
cryptic philosophy furnishes it. He
adds: "The man who can't sleep in
-own can't keep awake in Atlantic
City Wake up and go to sleep"

GIFTS--WITH A STRING TO THEM

Advertising that contains an offer
of the words free" and give" and
which are not backed up by mer-
chants as a genuine gratuity are
held to be unfair by the Federal
Trade Commission at Washington,
which has forbidden business con-
Germs from using this class OF ad-
vertising.

TOWNS ALWAYS HAVE people
who have no time to work for pub

ty of it to sit around and tell what
ought to be done.
Milford chronicle., 1930-05-09
CONFUSED BY THE TRAFFIC"

About three-fifths of the automo-
bile fatalities are caused by auto
mobiles striking pedestrians. One
of the commonest reasons given for
such accidents is that the pedes-
trians were confused by the traf-
fic."
Things happen so suddenly in a
street filled with cars, that it is not
surprising that people become con-
fused. They think that the way is
clear for them to cross, but sudden
ly from some unexpected direction
shoots a car coming fast, which they
had not seen. Their minds refuse to
work, and they fail to make the
quick jump that might land them in
safety. Pedestrians should obey
traffic rules, and consider the dan
ger of becoming confused before they
take chances. Automobile drivers
should give the pedestrians a chance,
and consider what hard time they
lave crossing streets in many
crowded places.
Milford chronicle., 1930-05-09
NEW IDEAS

William James, who has been
called the greatest of American psy-
biologists, once said that the ideas
that people gain before they are 25
years old are practically the only
ideas they will ever have, except such
ones as they gain in their own bust
ness. They have lost the power of
assimilating new ideas.
The majority of people keep on
doing the same thing over and over
again in the same way. They may
respond, however, to new ideas in
their own business, because they are
forced to- If customs and fashions
change, they have to adapt them
selves to the changes or lose their
jobs.
The editor of a leading daily news
paper once said that a mans sue
cess in newspaper work depended
largely on the speed with which he
could take ON a new idea. 81 will
go to work in the evening"" he said,
land build up my front page with
the idea that certain piece of news
is the biggest feature of the day.
Along about midnight some much
bigger piece of news will break
loose. If l cling to my previous idea
and still feature the earlier piece of
news as the big thing, the paper will
not seem attractive tomorrow morn
ing. Nearly every night l must re-
adjust my point of view as to what
is the big news of the morning"
1t is still more difficult for people
to take on new ideas outside their
daily work, since they are not forced
to do so by economic pressure. So
people drift into stereotyped habits
of thought, and vote and act the same
as they did years ago.
Some people who take on new
ideas too readily are impressed by |
every new fad of thought. Their
judgment can not be relied upon.
But we need people who without be-
ing tickle, are keeping close watch
Of modern developments, and are
ready to accept new conceptions of
life and work when the same are
verified by practical experience.

NEW BUSINESS .CONCERNS

1t is something of a proposition,
in the sharp competition of modern
business, for a new concern to start
in and draw trade. People have a
tendency to buy goods at certain reg
ular places that have attracted their
attention and support in the past,
and a new concern may find that it
takes quite a long time to acquire
any volume of business.
An attractive window display
will help any concern to win
trade. But there are so many fine
displays in most towns now, that
more than that is called for Ad-
vertising is the means by which any
concern, new or old, can get atten-
tion promptly. People are never too
busy to read notices about the things
thew want to buV

SeS

THE EPIDEMIC OF forest fires il
lower Delaware during the pas
week, has resulted in some trying
conditions for those Immediately in
terested and awakened a general
public interest at times expressed
in a manner calculated to hinder
rather than help the situation.
For example, idle curiosity has at
times cluttered up the highway with
automobiles, creating an unneces-
sary hazard to moving fire appar-
atus and impeding the work of the
fire fighters.
Perhaps the worse phase of this
idle curiosity is it's effect upon the
telephone service. Telephone Com
pany officials say that at times the
curiosity calls have completely
swamped the telephone exchange
making it almost impossible to han
die the real emergency calls which
arise at such times.
The public should realize that the
telephone operators cannot act as a
public information bureau and at
the same time perform the more i'm
portant function of giving telephone
service.
