SALES AND SERVICE

The old idea of retail trade was
to make sales anyway. 1t did not
make so much difference whether
the goods were right or not, pro-
vided sales were made.
But unfortunately some of those
goods passed over the counters did
not stay passed. The customers
would discover that they were not
right. and the goods would come
bounding back. In other cases. the
goods were used. but the customers
did not like them, and conceived a
prejudice against the store. That
kind of sale is considered no good
now. at least II is so considered in
the stores of Milford and most stores
in Delaware. Merchants do not care
to have goods go out of the store
unless they feel sure that the Gus
toner is going to be pleased and

HANDY MEN NEEDED

DR.. Viteles of the University O
Pennsylvania predicts that during th'
next 10 years. 100000 white col
lar men will have to learn to do man
ual labor. while 15.000,O00 manua
workers will have to take up lines
of work different from that for which
they have been trained.
The invention of machinery has
! turned the industries upside down
A man may feel confident that he has
good permanent trade which will
support him through life. but some
machine may be invented which will
do the work of 100 men including
himself. and he is thrown out on
the street.
Many men are completely helpless
when they lose their jobs. If they
always performed certain process
on certain machine. they can't
imagine themselves doing anything
different. A change in that trade
leaves them as bewildered as if they
had been through an earthquake.
The old-time American pioneer
was extremely ingenious. If any
thing broke down in his shop or
home. he just had to mend it him
self. or get along without it. That
resourcefulness built up a marvel
Gus race of inventive people. but
that old-fashioned "gumption" has
largely disappeared. The modern
boy is not equipped for life unless
he can use both his hands and his
brains. People must become more
handy. skilful. observant. and re-
and be prepared at short
notice to turn from one thing to an
other.
White collar workers will still be
necessary in the modern world, as
stores and Offices must be manned

ants. But the number of boys pre-
pairing to be white collar workers
has been twice the number of white
collar jobs. The opportunities are
as good for the man who handles a
hammer as for the one who yields
a pen. provided the hammer man
uses his eyes and his brains.

PERSUASIVE POWER

Young people who have a business
job. ask how they can sell more
goods? They seem to think it is a
matter of persuasive talk. some trick
of craftsmanship.
That power lies more in the pos
session of full information. The
buyer wants to know facts. He does
not care to listen TO a salesman's
fast moving tongue But he wants
to know whether this article is bet
ter than that article. and why it is
better, and what results it will get
that some other article does not get.
That information is not to be had by
guesswork. 1t takes long study Of
merchandise. and much conversation
with people who have used these
articles The good salesman is a
good listener. all the time looking
for information which he can supply
when it is needed
Milford chronicle., 1934-06-01
THE MORLn,S Rad MEN

The Bureau of Investigation of the
L. s. Department OF Justice is the
largest center of criminal informa-
ton in the world. More than g.
100000 records are contained in
these fields about the worlds bad
men. One reason why the federal
detectives have been so successful
in pursuit of crime. is that they have
those complete records to fall back
on.
The youth who gets away with a
crime, feels that he is smarter than
the law. But the story of that crime
has gone on the records of the po-
lice. When several crimes have the
same characteristics, the police can
make fairly good guess who COM
mitted them. When the identity of
a criminal is surmised. his haunts
and associates are watched, and in
due time he drops some clue that
lands him where he belongs.

DATES

The old folks may laugh at the
eagerness with which the young peo-
pie seek dates" but 1t is serious
business to young man or woman
who feels a natural desire for So
ciety OF the other sex. but does not
know how to obtain it. AT Brooklyn
College, the seniors have set up a
bureau which will provide these
much desired dates, and bring young
men and young women together.
They have a card index OF the date
seekers. with information and per-
sonal description.
Many popular youngsters have
more dates than is good for them,
and neglect work and study while
they fulfill social and sentimental
appointments. Meanwhile many re-
served boys and girls need more
dates. as they lament in solitary
loneliness. Perhaps date bureau
will solve some of these personal
problems.
Milford chronicle., 1934-06-01
SCHOOL DEBATERS

1t is often said that young Amer
lea is only interested in sports. Yet
that is not true of all our youth, as
has just been proved at the national
high school debating competitions
at Topeka, Kansas. 1t is a pleasure
to learn that so many young peo-
pie are as keen in developing their
wits and exercising their brains, as
others are in pitching baseballs and
kicking footballs.
The young people who excel in
school debates will not have their
pictures printed so often as those
who make the home runs. But they
are producing winning brains. The
prizes of life go to such ones. who
know what is going on in the world,
who are able to think, and express
their thoughts.

TNTAMED NATCRE

Old Ma Nature says she is not to
be drilled under any NRA code, or
any AAA So our government de-
vises its well meant schemes. to
stop over-production of farm staples.
Then Manure comes along. and so
handles her majestic forces that the
rains do not fall, and the growing
plants suffer, and production of
various crops will come below nor
NAL.
Agriculture can never be regulat-
ed as other industrial operations
may be. The forces of wind and
weather are affected by vast powers
beyond our vision. Man has to take
his chances on these forces, and
agriculture will always be more or
less of a hazard, alternating from
feasting to famine

SCHOOL CLOSING EVENTS

II is great day for parents, when
their Tommy Of Mary is perched up
on some platform at a school or col
lege. to read an essay, speak a
piece" or go through the motions
of a graduating event. Even il the
class is only finishing the work of
some neighborhood school of gram
mar grade, it is the most notable
event of that child's life so far, and
the parents heart almost bursts with
pride.
Examination day" in the old-time
district school was once grand
event. 1t was a breathless moment
when the black coated school com
mittee entered the room, which was
filled with a hushed gathering of
anxious pupils and admiring par
ents. The simple songs and recita-
tions seemed to constitute in those
times marvellous display of learn
ing and skill. When the chairman
of the School Board rose for his an
nual speech. it was like Demosthenes
addressing his ancient Greek audi
ence.
Today when the youngster grad
yates from a school or college, it
is always a momentous event. The
child has climbed long hill, and
is about to enter a new road of I'M
known experience.
If he has climbed well and faith
fully, he is entitled to feel pride.
Where many dropped out. he has
shown ability to pull the load up hill.
Any boy or girl who graduates with
a good standing from good school
or college has won one of the most
significant battles of life.
Graduation day in all grades of
schools is an advertisement of edu-
cation. 1t teaches the children that
the world values knowledge. The
hOnOrs given at that time convince
many an Indifferent youth that it is
lime for him to settle down to work. |
and learn the things which the world |
says are necessary.
Milford chronicle., 1934-06-01
NRA UNDER SCRUTINY

What Is the eject OF the MIRA on
business and industry? These ques-
, tions are warmly discussed in the
report on the NRA made by Clarence
barrow and his associates of the Ma
tional Recovery Review Board, and
in the reply to this report made by
MIRA officials. According to the
Review Board, the MIRA tends to-
ward monopoly and injustice to the
small business concern, while the
MIRA officials warmly defend their
work.
"There is no hope for the small
business man or for complete re-
covery. in enforced restriction of
production" says the barrow re-
port Theoretically. there seems
much truth in that statement. At
time when a multitude of people
lack the things they need, there
seems something inherently wrong
in trying to force people to produce
less. In former years we emerged
from depression by producing more.
not by producing less.
The country may be said to be
between the devil and the deep sea.
If the government let's business
alone. harsh practices like child
labor. excessively low wages, and
prolonged hours of labor, will occur.
And if the government regulates
business closely, then there is the
danger of driving many people into
bankruptcy through strict rules with
which they can't comply.
II is a most difficult thing to reg
ulate the business of this vast coun-
try. Most men find it about all they
can do to regulate their own bust
ness. Where are those supermen
whose all embracing wisdom shall |
enable them to regulate all business? /
Well. the government must do the !
best it can. All the evils complained |
of can not be abolished all at once. /
We must give up partisan preiudices.
and if we have patience. and do not
expect too much in a hurry, we shall
gradually remove the worst evils of
industry.

THE CAMPING HABIT

Five hundred thousand people
used the free camping privileges pro-
vided in New York State last year
Other states could show great num-
bers who use these facilities each
summer. Enormous crowds of camp
ers 60 to the national parks or other
famous scenes. The camping habit
solves the vacation problem for mil
lions.
These folks take the little old bus,
pack tent, cooking apparatus. and
heaps of other baggage on it, and
start on their travels. 1t looks like
real work to the people indolently
sitting on some luxurious hotel
porch. But these wanderers see
states and sections they never ex-
pected to enter. they grow fat and
healthy. They need no dress suits
nor party clothes.
They have their sad moments.
They remember one day when they
located themselves in corner Of a
farmers field After they had their
tent set up. the wood collected for
fire. water drawn. and a beginning
made on supper, down came an
angry and perspiring farmer. ac-
companied by dog which uttered
ri nd
dered off the land. Considering that
some last year campers may have set
his woodland afire. you can't blame
the farmer so much.
Not all the wandering campers are
the kind you want for bosom friends.
Some look like a modernized version
of an old-fashioned tramp. Some
will say it is better policy, in run
ming public camp grounds, to make
small charge, to exclude undesir-
able elements.
Hotels, tourist homes, lunchrooms, |
etc. feel the competition of the camp |
sites. But the majority of these
campers would never leave home If
they had to pay regular board bills.
1t used to be thought you had to have
a wad of money to enjoy vacation,
but modern camping and camp
grounds open that privilege to any
crowd that can chip in enough silver
to buy the gasoline.

MEMORIES OF A HERO

President Roosevelt. the United
States Congress, the United States
Supreme Court, and other high dig
nitaries have just celebrated with
impressive ceremonies the Tooth an
niversary of the death of Marquis
de Lafayette. who contributed so
largely to the success of the Amer
lean Revolution.
The story of the aid which this
young Frenchman brought to this
country reads like a romance. He
had no selfish motive for mixing in
the movement for the independence
of our colonies. step which prom
ised to abolish old evils under which
humanity had grOaned for centuries.
So he offered his life in that cause,
hoping for no reward for himself.
When he organized his first expe-
dition of aid to our patriot fathers,
he was only 10 years of age 1t is
not time of life when most young
men are capable of great RESPONSE
bilities. But he soon demonstrated
such loyalty. such ability to arouse
enthusiasm, such military skill, that
Washington placed great confidence
in his capacity.
When Lord CORVALLIS landed in
Virginia near the close of the war.
he set out in pursuit of Lafayette
and his army. THE boy can't
escape me-" said the English gen
eral. But the boy" and the troops
under his astute leadership. got out
of the way so fast, that they soon
escaped the net set for them.
The influence of this brilliant
young Frenchman had much to do
with inducing the French govern
ment to send military aid to this
country. The independence of the
United States might not have been
achieved had it not been for this as
sistanCe. We should all say Amen
to the ceremonies in which the heads
of our government have commence
rated this noble youth.
