•THE BREAKING POINT OF 1 TRUTH" REACHED BY I TREATY CRITICS 1 It is stretching things beyond the t breaking point of truth to say thatjj I Articles I and II are as mischievous | , . as Article X in their power to in- p volve the United States in entang* j ] ling alliances" of the sort warned 1 i against by George Washington. j] Article X of the covenant would i have committed the United States to : respect and help "preserve" as : against attack from without the pol- : itacal independence and territorial in- ' ; tegrity of all members of the league I . — now some two score or more in j , number. Included in these score are]political units and institutions in j : Central Europe and elsewhere that |: are not in favor in the United States ■ • because other provisions of the treaty j of Versailles looked to be and have) become seeds and sources of apparently endless trouble. Strictly speaking, the United States has no politic- . I al intertSt in the squabbles of Cen- 1 R tral Europe, and it has only an in- j direct economic interest therein. j The proposed treaty has to do on-

with rights bearing on the insular lj possessions and dominions of the four contracting powers in Pacific regions. S United States has possessions f< there- It has political rights and di- e j rect economic interests there. Its n i rights and interests unquestionably!" | would suffer in some degree by a ti I physical clash" in that part of the world, even if they were only in the j posture analagous to that of the "initio cent bystander." The United i States thus has a substantial equity , i , in the preservation of peace in the . ■ J Pacific and a very live interest in the j i adjustment of all possible controver- , ijsies affecting these four great pow- , i ere by amicable means. To procure j ! I that kind of adjustment through ij frank statement and friendly under- : j standing is the motive underlying the i [treaty which the Senate now will be ■ asked to ratify. ! If any legal or moral commitment j - ; of the United States to use force is .j - 1 to be read into the treaty at all, itjl - . is a commitment of the earning out 1 1 -I of which will be in preservation of!| - American rights as well as the rights i I of others, and. a commitment that; - can be vitalized in any given case on- j

ft Why Hibernate? | i ■ Have you heard a man asking: "How do you find ^ y Business?" H This is the answer: "By going after it." p! • MR. MERCHANT ^ H Cape May is a summer resort and during the summer is so overcrowded V? ^ -3^ that business is just pushed into your doors by the throng. So much so, [£ I. perhaps, that you have all that you and your clerks can do. That's when ft to business is good and you advertise. YOU don't find business then. It finds — § ■ But when summer is gone and the rush is over, what then? Do you 11' decide business is going to be poor, stop your advertising and hibernate? ' H f Possibly you will say, "I don't need to advertise- I've been in this town for 'a. & ten years and everybody knows me." g " Probably they do, but did you ever stop to think of the sales you lose B | because your fellow competitor advertises, or of how much more business ft you would do if you did advertise? Everybody may know you and what ■ i business you are in, but everybody needs reminding continually that you '• ' & have something to sell that they need. V _■ Advertising today, especially- in newspapers, is the greatest business 0 ■ getter there is. This is acknowledged by men who know; people read ad- X XC vertisements in newspapers- They have been educated to do so. ^yery i* I I merchant and business man in Cape May ought to advertise- It will increase their business and build up the city from a summer resort to a year round town. V u You remember the story of John Wana maker. The first day he was in business his receipts were $24.64. He kepf the 64 cents and spent the $24 M ( the next day for advertising. We can't all duplicate that performance beA cause we can't all be John Wanamakers, but according to the best statistics \ • three per cent qf gross sales should be put into advertising. ■ Results will be sure if we all advertise in proportion to our business, and advertise honestly and give service. A newspaper can bring people to [If | your store or other place of busings, but it can't make people buy your goods- Yon or your clerks must do that and it depends on the service you • 5 ® give as to how successful your business will be ,and what results you will P ■L I derive from your advertising. y ' What is done in the big cities can be done right here in Cape May if 1 ■■ you will show the pep, give service and Adevrtise.

BHCAL AUTHORITIES ADYO- ■ VOCATE WINTER USE OF f FANS ai Br- Firic medical director of -the fc K> Extension Institute, says in a oi Irer.t bulletin of the Institute; h fTh' business man should have his n bee properly ventilated and heated S Id not a poor imitation of a tarirish \ fth He should not let the temper- a :^re run above 70 degrees and if g tare any deficiency in the pro visins for automatic ventilation as ( [We usually is, he should start an metric fan to kep the air moving .think it is more often needed in linte than in summer, since in win|r c'n«ed doors and windows often suit in humid or stagnant air. , Confining the use of electric fans the hot days of summer is largely matter* of sheer custom. The pub- • should be educated to use them in ntc: as well.
