The Wink That Cost a Lot of Votes Tt is told of a candidate for public office that, in the course of an address which was winning him loud applausy, fe was seen to tura and wink at a friend seated near him on the platform. From the moment of this wink his address fell comparatively flat. THe wondered at the audience's changed attitude. He wondered still more when election day came and he was soundly beaten at the pella Yet the explanation was simplicity itself. Rightly or wrongly, his audience of voters had interpreted that wink as a sign of insincerity, And the balloting was consequently certain to fo against the winking one, if for no other reason than that people will knowingly intrust an insincere man with the conduct of public affairs. It i the same tn af) profeasions, fr all walke of If Inatncerity repels, sincerity attracts, And the insincere are soon or late relegated to the obscurity and ignominy they deserve Nor does one have to betray his insincerity by winks er nods or shrugs of the shoulder, It shows itself subtly thru hia face, his words, his general bearing, no matter how guarded he may be. Quickly suspicion crystallizes into certainty. The spoken or unspoken so long as he ‘gets there.’ Look out ‘for him.” ‘The very handshake of the insincere ts enough to put others on quant.

Unload Freight Cars Speedily One day the Memphis Press printed an editorial urging more speed tn the loading and unloading of freight cars. The etitorial was addressed to “Freight Car Users,” and urged tus measure as a relief for car - | congestion. “Unquestionably editoriala of this kind will do a great deal of good.” wrote C. N. Mabie, agent of the Rock Island lines, to the editor. “Your editorial has had effect on the situation,” wrote B. E. Buchanan, division freight agent of the Frisco lines. “It will have its good effect toward relieving the present congestion,” wrote C. C. Johnson, freight agent of the Loulrvilie & Nashville railroad “Advice is cheap,” somebody once said. But that is no good reason for disregarding it. ‘The advice to shippers to load and unload as quickly a possible conta the shippers nothing. It cosets the readers of this newspaper nothing But it means more cars for the shippers, and faster freight service for It means that because many shippers accepted the advice contained tn that editorial more people have food to eat, clothes to wear, building material, fuel, and other things than they otherwise would have. Consider well advice before you reject tt, be it printed word or spoken.
