but the first thing they know some
thing droCs on them and their bust
ness goes geeflooey. Had Aeschylus
been a modern playwright, he would
have advertised for q full house and
raised the roof"
If we are to be successful in our
business and expect to progress we
must tell the world what we have 20
offer. That's reasonable, isn't It?
If We let the balance of the world
know that we have q progressive
community, we can expect to hear
from thrifty and progressive indivi-
duals seeking to better their condi-
lions. We will hear from manu-
facturers seeking locations in lively
community centers for plant locations
suitable to our conditions. We Will
thus expand and prosper. We can
not afford to stand still. Men and
women will seek to establish homes
where they have a perfect right to
think of the best, and expect the
best of everything in life from pro-
gressive work. That has been the
God-created doctrine since Adam
and Eve. There should be enough
power in any man to settle his prob
lens If he will concentrate and keep
driving himself. We must not rest
on our oars. The slow turtle, In the
fable, passed the hare and won the
race, while the hare was sleeping.
The road to success, with all its won
derful opportunities, Is open. but it
requires extraordinary power and
sometimes genius to achieve real
permanent success. The average man
can be successful and be admired by
his fellows if he will go into the har-
ness and pull his load and there is no
better chance than today. In your
head is placed thinking machine
and your body Is its servant. II your
machine Is working your servant will
be obedient to it's wishes. Success is
perhaps not SO easy for everybody.
II it were. every man would have It.
It requires hard work and the worker
will win. It does seem so queer that
the average man is simply looking for
snap" He has little mind and less
will and so when he dies there Is
nothing to say about him except
Here he lies. Once he was alive, or
half alive-now he is dead"
Now. don't let us be like that. Let

DOLLAR DAY IN WlLM-
INGTON

Wednesday, August 10th,
will mark the premier oppor-
tunity day for securing real,
outstanding bargains in all
kinds of merchandise in Wilm-
ington stores. 1t will be the
semi-annual Dollar Day Of the
series which has been conduct
ed under the auspices Of the
Mercantile Section Of the Will
mington Chamber of Com
MERGE for nineteen years, and
which is famous as a bargain
event all over this country.
Unusual efforts have been
made by the retail merchants
affiliated with the Section to
make this the most outstand-
ing Dollar Day of the long
series, and for weeks purchas-
ing authorities of the stores
have been combing the mark
cts for additions to their
stocks which would give the
visiting purchasers the high
est possible values. Undoubt-
eddy, this event will mark the
highest peak of effort posi-
BILE to insure not only taking
ample care of the crowds which
are sure to take advantage of
it, but to see that they are
thoroughly satisfied with their
purchases and that these pur-
chases represent real bargains.
These semi-annual events
are anticipated with much
pleasure by many thousands of
housewives in the Del-Mar-Va
Peninsula, and the nearby
points in Pennsylvania, Mary
land and New Jersey. Each
year the numbers attending in
crease, and each year more and
more stores are so crowded
with smiling shoppers as to
require the services of "traffic
policemen" to prevent such a
congestion that nobody could
get near the counters.
people nowadays require,
and have a right to expect the
greatest possible return for
their money!" said a promin-
emf Wilmin ptOh retailer in dis
cussing the Dollar Day, "and
the members of the Mercantile
Section propose to see that
none goes home dissatisfied, if
in any way we may prevent it. :"
They will be able to get great
er values than ever before, and
a wider range from which to
choose.
