WEARING THE GREEN.
'St. Patrick's Day Observed In Nor
folk.
Tuesday a fair portion of Norfolk's
population , Irish and otherwise , paid
homage to the pation saint of the
Kmerald Isle. But Norfolk people who
delight to Ily a bit of green ribbon
though their name has no tinge of
Irish can Hud cheer In St. Patrick's
uluy for It Is known that that good
man was half Scotch , half French , with
no drop of Irish blood. The story of
the man whom the world knows ban
ished snakes from Ireland Is wrapped
in a good deal of mystery and dispute
but the day formally set aside for the
celebration of his birth anniversary
gives Norfolk with the rest of the
world a chance to turn a dark lantern
onto ancient family history In the
hopes of finding some trace of Irish
lineage. Norfolk's good citizens who
have the advantage of being truly Irish
imule the most of the day.

THE MERCHANTS WHO WALK.
The Pedestrians Get There By and
By But Not so Fast.
A little while ago Mr. Edward Pay-
ion Weston , the pedestrian , walked
'rom ' Portland , Maine to Chicago in
ibout thirty days. It was a great
cat of endurance and grit , as all the
vorld knows.
But It ought not to make it n pop-
ilar way for people to get from Port-
and to Chicago. And it will not.
While Mr. Weston was trudging on
ils weary way the history of the world
might have been changed ships have
circled the seas express trains have
jxplored the remotest parts of a con-
inent business successes have been
made and unmade.
Mr. Weston beat his own record of
an average llfo-tlmo ago but ho
could not make It either wise or pop-
ilar for people to walk from Portland
o Chicago.
The Portland man who started to
Chicago by express train on the same
lay that Mr. Weston started afoot
reached there transacted his busl
ess , went home , took a trip to Europe
on business , and arrived homo again
from London on the day Mr. Weston
reached Chicago.
The contrast shows a phrase of
modern business life. An occasional
merchant tries , figuratively , to walk
from Portland to Chicago to compete
on foot with express trains. He tries
Lo "walk" his store to success by ,
perhaps , a Httlo of the sort of "adver
tising" which is afforded by fence-
signs and dead-wall posters. Or , he
takes the "local train" by planning
a great many "stops" in his newspaper
abvertlslng. In this case while his
store will eventually "arrive , " it will
have failed to match the pace set by
the stores that adopt the express-train
idea of modern aggressive newspaper
advertising pace-making publicity
with few If any stops on the sched
ule.
Incldently , it costs moro In money
as well as In time , to walk from Port
land to Chicago than It does to travel
In a Pullman car.
And It costs more In money to
make a store "walk , " than to have U
ride on the publicity special main
tained by this newspaper. Figure It
out you're "good at figures ! "

COMMERCIAL CLUB CONSIDERS
PROPOSITION FAVORABLY.
MEETING HELD HERE IN JULY
Club Agrees to Guarantee the Sale of
Five Hundred Tickets But Declines
to Furnish , Light and Police the
Grounds.
A cliautauqua will all probability
lie held in Norfolk next July for the
ton days beginning Jury 21 , the date
being advanced a week to avoid bringIng -
Ing the cliautauqua and the race moot
ing too close together.
The directors of the Commercial
club Tuesday afternoon by a unani
mous vote agreed to sell 500 season
tickets at | 2 apleco for the cliautauqua
If It was brought to Norfolk. The
directors objected to certain parts of
the contract presented to them , be
lieving that they would bo required to
furnish , light and police the cliautau
qua grounds. This they declined to
do. A communication from W. B.
Swygard of Albion has since stated
that the people of Norfolk would bo
asked simply to have a suitable piece
of ground for the chautauo.ua manage
ment to rent.
The cliautauqua project has been
quite favorably received In Norfolk )
this time and the Indications are that
the chautauqua will be brought here.
The place offered Norfolk In the chau
tauqua circuit was held last year by
Wayne but the train connections be
ing poor between Wayne and Albion.1
it was proposed to substitute Norfolk.
A muii' ' who harbors malice Is liable
to commit murder. A man who hates
another a long time is sure to get into
a fight with him sooner or later ,
nnd when the fight finally comes
there is likely to be mischief done.
Mon wait for years for the first blow ,
and the first blow is liable to bo
with a deadly Instrument. Don't
waste your energy in hating people ;
such a course will make you wretched
and finally get you Into trouble.
