THE CHRONICLE OF THE WEEK
i . . , i j i .1 w.iiiim in jjiii-j " ? -
Things are looking brighter?Uncle
Sam may not have accomplished, as
yet, all that he set out to do last
March, but hie sleeves are rolled up,
and there's a smile on his face.
"Are we downhearted ?< No!"
For Instance, when wo boarded the
Seaboard'* Now York-iFlorida Limited
for Camden last week, we were
informed that there were fourteen
curs on the train leaving New York
and in the Seaboard Pullman in which
we travelled the number of our
fellow-passengers made it look more
like mid-season than the first part of
October,
Tulking to a man the next morning
while rolling through North Carolina,
the good news was given that more
horses are expected in Camden this
season than ev^r before-. -And more
horses mean more people, more business
for the hotels and stores of
j Camden, more sales of oats, hay mid
straw by people here, more doing |
generally.
Take, just one.pther instance. m
A litflo whilo ago we w4re in the
sales room of the Huyek Mills, across
the Hudson from Albany, N. V.J
There were so many customer* in the J
place, not , people just "shopping j
around" but "cash customers"- men
buying suits and overcoats for the
Fall and Winter and ladies purchasing
blankets and materials for suits
?so many people buying in fact that
we commented on it to a saleswoman.
"Why," said she, "it's been this way
with us for the last two months; it
mak.es us think of the days before
1929!"
Business is what we make it.
Let's make it good!
