DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Edson R. Waite, Shawnee, Oklahoma
The door-to-door peddler in this country cuts in deep
on the business of local merchants and, incidentally, keeps
the average housewife busy answering the door-bell, but
they have not as yet gone to the extent they have in some
countries.
The Pinang Gazette and Straits Chronicle says that one
of the outstanding characteristics of Pinang and Malanyan
life is the hawking question. Nowhere else in the East is
hawking carried on to such an extent as in that country.
A large proportion of the population in Pinang. as in
other parts of that country, depend entirely on the hawker,
who supplies them with every meal they need from their
first morning meal until the last before they retire. Not
only in the matter of food, but various other necessities of
life also can be had at one's door.
EUCHARISTIC CONGRESS INVITES PRESIDENT
The diplomatic skill of the Catholic church and states
manship among its leaders has accounted in part for its
world influence. An illustration is in the fact that Presi
dent Roosevelt, though not a Catholic, has received a grac
ious invitation to attend the National Eucharistic congress to
be held in Cleveland in September, followed with the after
thought that if the President cannot come he could send Post
Master General James A. Farley to represent him. Mr Far
ley is a good Catholic, who could come on his own account,
but his presence as a representative of the President would
have a greater significance.—Exchange
A smile is an asset—a frown a liability. Believe it or not.
You should boost now. Keep going and do the work
thoroughly.
