Headwntere on newspapers used less discre
tion in to p tp u tg th eir story about the sensational
annoiuMNoeot by the president Tuesday, in wjjich
he sail. “ I do not choose to run for president in
1928,” than the reporters at the president’s short
confereBoe did.
'
'
-
While the presidential party reporters rushed
to the totagraph offices after the president said there
was ^pfbang further to add to the statement, the
haadwritgrg added* unsaid words to the president’s
safanent when they wrote such heads as the fol
lowing:
‘‘Coolidge Steps out of G. 0 . P. Race’’—Port
land Telegram. (Did he step outf)
**CoeUdgU -Will Not Choose to Bun”—Grants
Pass Courier. (Be said “ I do not choose to ran,” not
“ I will not choose to run” .)
“ Coolidge Will Not Bun for Re-Election” )—
Klamath Palls Herald. (Who told you he would
notf)
*•
‘‘Coolidge Declares He is Not Candidate for
Presidency Next Year’*—Medford News. (Another
wrong interpretation.!
“ President Coolidge Will Not Bun”—Medford
Mail Tribune. (Somebody else with inside infor-
“ Cal Not to Bun in 1928”—Eugene Guard.
(Too quick on the mental trigger, we say.)
“ Coolidge Vetoes Third Term Idea”—Portland
Oregonian. (The president is good at vetoing, but
we can’t see what makes the Oregonian feel so
certain .about this third term idea.)
And not to leave ourselves out, The Daily
Tidings had this head: “ Coolidge Will Not Be
Candidate in 1928.”
Wiser men than the writer have wondered fu-
tilly fig to What Calvin Coolidge was thinking and
planning, and, while the president’s statement was
possibly made to relieve himself of the re
sponsibility of actually seeking the nomination, The
Daily Tidings still . feeip that, evea though the
paeridrat may “ not choose,” he will still aooept
the nomination if it is offered to him.
Dignity in Business
Too often people going into a place of business
oarry the idea that they are giving the tnerehant
something when they malfie a purchase and pay for
it. They expect the merchant or his clerk to bow
down with gratitude for the largess they have be
stowed.
And too many salespeople do just that thing.
And as some people demand this form of servitude
it becomes almost a custom to give it.
While it is true you do confer a favor upon a
businessman by bringing your custom to him—yon
show your faith ill his trustworthyness. You are
merely making a fair exchange of your money for
merchandise .which is or should be worth every
penny you pay. He makes a profit upon the trans
action bnt it only represents a fair return upon his
investment and pay for his time which he is
entitled to as much as he is to the return of the cost
price of the article sold.
On thé other hand be just a trifle skeptical of
the merchant or other businessman who slops over
in his appreciation ^>f yoor business—maybe yon
are giving him something besides a fair return for
his investment and time.
Courteous, xmobstrusive service characterizes the
store which asks nothing more than a fair exchange
of values and you will not be overcharged in that
establishment.
They are not asking you to give them anything.
Cosmopolitanism
With radio broadcasting and new reels at the
film theatres, It is getting so that people in A
thousand cities and towns witness and hear the
afiune things at the same time. In Ashland we
(toe the same spectacles and hear tlic saiqe sjieechea
abd- music as the folks in New York City. The
fa tu res of-Mayor Walker, of New York, are be
coming as familiar to local theatre goers as they
* e to New Yorkers. It is a common occurrenoe
to hear the voice of the Preaident, -cabinet menfi-
|s n tor other celebrities in ‘Ashland.
We hear the orchestra playing in many of the
great hotels of the country and we hoc most of the
meat parades of the cities.
A score of years ago a New Yorker and a
sknall town citiaen would have found little in common
to talk about—now they have as many common in-
terssts and experiences as (hough they were next
