BFST FOOT FORWARD

The old proverb says, Put the
best foot forward" According to
this idea. if you are going to apply
for a job. or try to please some par
ticularly conspicuous people. you put
on your best clothes and make a
special effort to present a good ap-
pearance.
In accordance with this idea. there
is a special obligation on the part of
people living along the more i'm
portant streets and roads. to keep
their places in fine order, as they
are seen by thousands of strangers.
An ugly spot along these roads gives
these visitors the impression that the
town is run down. The same is true
of back yards bordering on railroad
tracks. If these are a mess of dis
order. what must the traveller think
of the town where such neglect is
shown? All the folks who live i'm
such conspicuous places should take
pride in giving a demonstration of
fine appearance.

sLEEPINe on the nav

As summer comes on a consider
able number of men and boys sleep
in barns and on haystacls. Farmers
and gardeners occasionally uncover
these fellows when they feed their
cattle. The majority of these men
are probably looking for work, and
finding it TO some extent on add
jobs at farming. Many are young
sters who think that by wanderOng
around they can strike some place
where conditions are better than at
home.
1t is a pathetic thing that many
men and boys seem to have lost all
touch with home. and prefer the
uneasy slumbers of the haylOft.
The farmers are not keen to have
their hay piles serve as lodging
places. Usually these intruders get
prompt notice to quit. The most un-
kind of bed in a fellows
home town would seem better than
the Oe usually enjoyed by such way
farers.

DEATH FROM. THE AIR

out OF the clouds in the warning
nations. come messages of death and
horror to the non-combatants of
cities. Women and children. old men
and maidens lie slain by bombs fall
ing in the streets. a CHASTITY sacrifice
to mans cruel hatreds The state
department of our government has
issued a protest against such acts.
Before the world war. agreements
were made to outlaw the more bar
barous practices Of warfare. When
the nations got to fighting, they look
ed at such agreements as kind of
pious wish. not to be taken seriously.
The fighters in China and Spain COM
init still more of these terrible acts.
What can the American people do
about it? Apparently nothing, ex-
cept to say that such thinge are
contrary to all modern civilization.

HOW CATCH KIDNAPPERS!

The nation is again stirred by an
other kidnapping case. and is deeply
sorry for poor little Jimmy Cash of
Princeton. Florida. and his agOnized
family. 1t. seems terrible thing
when honest people have to pay down
great sums of money to get their
children back. and still more terrible
when the child is not promptly re-
turned after such extOrtion.
People who contemplate these foul
deeds should realize that the Ameri-
can people are determined to stop
these crimes. As most kidnappers
have been caught and made to suf-
fer extreme penalties. it is strange
that anyone can be found who dares
attempt such wicked and danger
Gus deed.
Somebody must have information
in such cases that would lead to dis
covery Of the perpetrators. The way
to get that information is to pay
heavily for it. Unless practically all
such attempts are severely punished
they will keep happening.

MEnnLNG CELEBRATORS

Weddings are supposed to present
stately and beautiful picture.
Taste and refinement and culture
make them lovely. The more elab-
crate ones become brilliant spec
tacles. which would draw hearty ap-
plause on the stage of theaters.
The bride and her attendants are
dressed with all the fashion and
taste that the costume artists can
devise. Flowers create back
ground of colorful beauty. The mas
terpieces of the worlds music library
lend their touch of emotion and ro-
nance. The movements of the bridal
party are so praetised as to add the
suggestion of drama. and every mo-
ton is significant toward the gem
eral effect. Even a very quiet and
simple home wedding has its own
distinct charm.
But what say some hilarious
lfteuuS Vi ShCh "NNuAh6 PA'iS'
They are sometimes not so much
concerned whether this or that de-
tail is perfect, as to whether the
bride and groom are given the pro-
per hazing.
The right kind to them may be I
comparable to the limitations once .
imposed on the supposedly fresh col
lege students. Some couples are
subjected to all the embarrassments
and difficulties that inventive wits
can devise.
A certain amount of mild horse
play may he tolerated. but if the
bride gets piece of rice in her eye
and has to go to an Ocuist the first
day of her honeymoon. it is an UNI
fortunate anti-climax. If the pur-
suers tear through the streets too
fast. an accident may happen, with
tragic results.
The celebrators would better go
little slow. A wedding should not
be turned into rOughhOuse. The
bride and groom on the first day of
heir welded journey, should be
given a little peace.

TIMES HARD!

Some people are always com
planning that times are hard. Even
in those periods that are called
prosperous by the rest of the coun-
try. these folks are usually COM
planning. For people of certain
type, times are always hard. Their
services are not much. in demand.
There are many people who are
usually prosperous even through So
called hard times. They have made
their services so useful, that except
under circumstances of special mis-
fortune. they find chances to work or
sell goods. This happy status is Oh
tanned by superiority Of service. by
doing things better than they are
usually done.
Milford chronicle., 1938-06-17
COMPLAINING OF THE OWNER

People who rent houses some
times complain because the owner
does not put in this or that improve
ment which they say is needed. They
want the licing room re-papered or a
new floor put in a sleeping room, or
new tub in the bathroom. When
the landlord says he can't afford
such things. some folks get sore.
The willingness of an owner to
make improvements depends a good
deal on whether the tenant makes
himself desirable or not. II a ten
ant is careless. if he allows his chill
dren to mark up the walls and mar
the floors, he can't expect the owner
to be very enthusiastic about inn
provements. The tenant who pays his
rent promptly. who keeps the grass
nicely moved and plants flowers and
shrubs, makes a reputation as a mod
ell occupant. Owners will go some
distance to please such a desirable
family.

A considerable portion of these
young people will probably keep on

they see no other way to occupy
their time. That at least is better
than sitting around and knocking
the world because it gives them
nothing to do.
A good part of the 1.42O,00O have

CONTEMPT FOR THE HOME TOWN

Some people seem to take pleasure
in running down their home sur
roundings. They seem to have the
feeling that it makes them appear
superior and used to better condi-
tions of living. if they speak dis
paragingly of the business and the
life of the places where they live.
There are plenty of faults in every
community. and folks who want to
find defects can always do so. That
spirit has a most depressing effect on
town. It makes people feel that
il isn't much use TO try to make it
any better. The first essential for
progress is to make them so proud
of their home town and its reputa
tion. that they aren't satisfied with
that is below standard, and
are willing to work to remove these
faults.

RUSINESS COTRAGE


When business is below normal. it
is customary to say that business
lacks confidence. Is that the fault
of the people who carry on bust
ness. or the public with whom they
do business?
The lack of confidence never
seemed to be a factor in the early
history of this country. 1t took un-
limited COINCIDENCE for the first set
tiers to cross a stormy ocean in Il
little creakng ship. II toOw as
much at a later date TO venture out
on the prairies among the wild and
hostile Indians. and clear off forests
and build homes. The descendants
of all these brave pioneers should
not lack the courage that created
our marvellous development.
Yet you can't blame person with
capital. if he declines to risk it on
uncertain ventures. If as the result
of hard work and economical living.
he has saved money. he does not
want to lose the result of all this
thrift and toll. If people say he
should be content with some very
small profit. and not expect to earn
much on that money. he asks what
motive he has for carrying on bust
ness. The management of such an
enterprise calls for intense effort
and much anxiety.
If anyone can earn no more in his
business than he can by investing in
government and city bonds, what
motive exists for him to employ labor
and take the risks? People should
not crowd the business man so hard
that he has no motive to do bust
ness.
If people are always looking on
the dark side of things, the world
will make little progress. One good
way to make money is to buy things
when prices are low and, the outlook
is cloudy, and to sell them when
times are good. If business people
in Delaware fear political changes
and new laws. they should consider
that the American people never yet
tolerated anything very long that in
terfered with the employment of the
people. and the progress of the ma

A SERPLTS OF CATS

A news dispatch tells of a Cat
Club formed in Surry county. n. c.,
the purpose of which is to provide
homes for unclaimed cats and kit
tens. A stray cat is a truly pitiable
object. and kind people will be glad
to have homes found for such wan
derers.
In the so-called food old days
the problem of surplus cats never
bothered people much. It was usu-
ally somebody's business to escort
any unwanted kitten to the washtub,
where the mewing creature was put
into "A bag and sunk beneath the

If the country ever fets into an
other war, everybody will have to

BEST DEPRESSION REMOVER

If the business people of the
United States should next week start
i'm to double the amount of money
they had been spending on advertis-
ing. what would be the result? Our
guess would he a great volume of
new business. A lot of people who
had been holding onto their money
would hear of exceptionally favor
able chances to buy. They would
realize that goods are being offered
at prices that will not probably last,
hence that it would be a sound idea
to stock up while these prices are
offered.
The result would he big wave of
new business. Probably nothing that
the government or the people could
do would do more to chase the clouds
away.

GRADnATE TH0nGnrs

On graduation day in schools ant
colleges. it was once customary
when the departing seniors SAID
their final words of farewell, to de-
liver orations and essays in which
they expressed the most noble pur-
poses. mot for ourselves alone. 81
was one favorite motto adopted by
many graduating classes. They ex-
pressed generous and unselfish hopes
of rendering service to the world.
Also they had ideas as to how the
world could be reformed. They took
the hoary old sinner Humanity" and
told him how he could change his
ways. and attain happiness.
That type of oration was fire.
quently laughed at You don't so
often hear it now. The modern
youth is usually anxious to seem
sophisticated. He wants 30 be con-
sidered familiar with the ways of the
world, and does not usually like to
seem too much shocked by existing
conditions. He commonly proposes
to take the world about as he finds
it, and he has little hope of changing
it.
A great deal can be said in favor
of the unselfish and intelligent
thoughts that have been presented in /
graduating essays of the |
older type referred to. The graduate /
was laughed at for telling the world /
how it could mend its ways. but !
what he said was perfectly
true, If the world would take the
counsels of its educated people. and
act in a sensible manner, it would
be infinitely happier.
The graduates of today do not so
,ften tell the world what to do.
They have learned that it does not

very bright type of people. and if

ONLY ONE COUNTRY PAYS

The U. S. government recently
sent. notices to all the countries
which owe money to the United
States treasury. that a regulasS in
stalment would be due June Is. A
total of 1881 100000 is due on that
date. The government of Finland
sent word that it would pay the
$161 900 which it owes. No other
one of these debtors is likely to do
so.
If these countries want to bor-
row more money in future, it will
not be so easy. When people are
asked to lend, they inquire how well
the borrower paid up before. Our
people will say that when nations
borrow money to carry on wars, the
chances of getting It back are not
too good.
