It's a darned poor politician that
can't please somebody. I've noticed
that when they're runnin' for a
second term or for another office
they point with pride to some of
the wonderful things they're ac-
Complished during their last term.
1t reminds me of Aunt Boo brag-
gin about Uncle Uni. She said
He's the handieSt man around the
house l ever knew. He took a top
off a table. sawed the legs off the
washstand and took panel out of

The Times watches over Selfridge's g

one Of the Stairs own leader writer's.
They keep him advised as to matters
Of libel and sometimes call him on the
telephone to make suggestions.
Once the Times thought . piece
complimenting an obscure public Of
fetal was not worth the prominence
the 400 words gave the individual, but
when Mr.. Selfridge insisted that ii
was the obscure, faithful, small worker
that he was attempting to glorify
nothing more was said about it.
Although Mr.. Selfridge has become q
| British subject in late years, he has
not abandoned his American ideas OF
work and merchandising.
When the clock strikes in the
morning. he is at his desk. He puts
wit and humor into his contacts with
his far-fiung business.

HAMILTON GAINS FAME
AS PORT OF BEAUTY
Sunrise Arrival by Ship Ranks
Among Striking Scenes
Travellers Discover.

HAMILTON. Bermuda, July 16-
The scenic city OF Hamilton, capital
OF the Bermuda Islands, presents one
OF the most beautiful views In the
world to the arriving traveller. Naples
has its blue bay crowned by Vesuvius,
Rio its Sugar Loaf rising in the har-
Dor, but Bermuda has its chain Of
rainbow-shaded islands set on rain
bow-shaped waters centered by the
lovely capital city Of Hamilton, built
against the background Of q hill.
A sunrise arrival in Hamilton Har-
Dor is an unforgettable memory. The
stately tower of the cathedral in
Hamilton commands the skyline and
the sun rising over the starboard bow
of the ship gilds the tower and the
waters of the harbor with brilliant
effects. Customs and immigra ton
formalities are rapidly completed on
arrival and bona fde visitors from
Canada, Great Britain and the United
States are relieved of the necessity
for bearing passports.
Vessels making regular calls at
Hamilton warp in alongside the fine
wharves and enable those on board
to pass down a gangway to the sheds
that front the principal shopping
street in Hamilton. Large cruise
liners anchor of the naval dockyard,
tourists being brought ashore in COM
Portable tenders.

totle to get him a good scribe who
would put the proper slant on the
conqueror's campaigns. Aristotle sent
his own nephew, Callisthenes, who
wrote glowing picture of everything
Alexander did until the two Of them
fell in love with the same woman
but that is another story.
At Heart Newspaperman.
While the world knows the ruddy,
white-thatched head of the House
OF Selfridge as a merchant, at heart
he is also newspaperman.
AS lad of II, in Jackson, Mich,
he got his first taste of printers ink on
the Will O. the Wisp a monthly publi-
cation which he produced with his
cousin.
1t was neighborhood affair and
1t had a short life. Mr.. Selfridge
handled the business end of it. The
knowledge of type and advertising
picked up as boy clung to him at
Marshall Fields, where he launched
MS great career as a stock boy and
finished as partner.
His constant suggestions about ad-
Vertising caused Marshall Field to
turn the advertising end of the vast
Chicago business over to him in 1885
Callisthenes often devotes himself
to inspirational and uplift copy.

BY WALTER M. HARRISON.

LONDON R).-"Callisthenes," who
signs the editorials appearing over the
name of Selfridge d Co., Ltd, Is Harry
Gordon Selfridge himself.
Although he has passed his 74th
birthday anniversary, the caliph of
Oxford street works over ideas for
his leaders" today just as eagerly
as he did 80 years ago when he
launched his career as a merchant in
London and audaoiously started out
to change Sritish opinion.
The idea OF great store buying
space entirely removed from the COL
umns reserved for the advertising of
merchandise, in which to air editorial
opinion, is original with the Ameri-
can-born Selfridge.
He made q reputation and q for
tune with Marshall Field in Chicago
before he was As, retired and returned
to active life in London with a store
that crashed British custom and has
become one Of the outstanding sue
cesses Of Europe.
400-WOrd Daily Comment.
Every day in the London Times, in
the upper right-hand corner of an
inside page, appears the 400 word
comment of Callisthenes. This article
is duplicated in the Manchester Guar
dian, the Yorkshire Post, the New
York and Paris editions of the New
York Herald Tribune and the Paris
edition of the London Daily Mail.

SPORT FISH SEASON
SHORTENED IN QUEBEC

QUEBEC, July l6-Shortening of
open seasons and the reduction Of
size and catch limits for several vari-
cites Of sport fish have been an
nounced for the Province of Quebec.
The new law sets the season on
speckled trout, lake trout and land
locked salmon from May l to Sep
tember 80. Trout less than 7 inches
must be returned to the water and
the catch limit is Is pounds for one
day or not more than 40 fish in two
days.
A 12-inch size limit and catch
limit Of Is pounds plus one fish a
day or 10 fish in two days have been
established for land-locked salmon.
New dates for black bass are June
16 to October Is and represent con-
siderable reduction in length of sea-
son. Catch limits are the same As
for land-locied salmon. Regulations
remain unchanged for wall-eyed pike,
great northern pike, pickerel, perch,
smelts, eel, sturgeon and white fish.

The fact that merchandising was
a third-class business when Mr.. Self
ridge broke into it in London is the
basic reason behind his editorial CAM
paign. He wanted to give retailing
the dignity and standing 1t had in
the United States.
He laughed in recalling his early
conceit, but thinks his campaign has
accomplished something. Mr.. Self
ridge is not satisfied, but he believes
the great stores have achieved dignity
and that the people of the British
Isles have real affection for them.
The Selfridge editorial was born in
the Standard in 1910. That news
paper had been pressing him to use
more space. He told the advertising
manager that he would buy more If
they would move their editorial over
a column and give him the upper
right-hand corner of the editorial page.
Much to the amazement of Mr.
Selfridge, the Standard accepted his
proposition and "Callisthenes" was
born.
If you remember your Greek, you
will identify Callisthenes as the first
press agent.

Remote From Modern Times.
Although Chincoteague Island and
its pony pennings is now within few
hours travel of New York, Philadel-
phia or Washington, it Is still 20 re-
mote from the modern tempo that 1t
would seem as II time, weary OF cease

1t can be reached by auto via An
napolis to Matapeake, where one fol-
lows Route 404 to Pocomoke City, Md,
and then takes Delaware Route 13. At
quaint little church between New
Church and Oak Hall, the motorist
turns left.
Then, one continues by means of a
good hard" road fashioned from q
base Of marsh silt and oyster shells,
drained by parallel canals, and a
bridge over its winding salt water
channels, on Chincoteague Island.
The names of such bridged lover
channels such as Queens Sound, Black
Narrows. Wide Narrows, Little Mar
rows, are strangely intriguing in them
selves. Even the rattle of the boards
over the bridge floor adds to the in
terest in reaching Chincoteague, espe-
cially If one finishes his journey with
the setting sun detected in a final
glory of Venetian colorings over the
lush green marshes and the sea blue
waters all about.
