The Evening Sentinel endorses
the editorial opinion of the Nor-
ristown Times-Herald printed be-
low and wishes to bring it _.to the
attention of every merchant and
resident of .\‘orwalk who is. cry-
ing. "Bad times: Poor business!"
The Norristow‘n (Pa) Times-
lHerald. in an editorial says that
it anticipates good business. Sum-
mer and Fall. 'for the following
reasons:
"Because. in spite of the fact
that'we are going to have a n1.-
tlonal election and in spite of the
fact that Summer months are

“Going to buy food. because
they must eat: buy clothes. lie-
causc they dre‘ss every day; need
furniture: buy automobiles; buy
insurance. because they need
protection in July. as well as in
January: in fact. there are few
needs of “'inter that do not find
their counterpart in Summer."
This newspaper says that the
age-old fallacy that business
must be poor on election years
and that people do not buy in
Summer has been exploded.

Before the dawn of the motor-

up a. farmer who had3never before
seen an automobile. The farmer
was duly impressed and delighted.
To impress him still more, the mot-
orist put his foot on the acceler-
ator and for six or seven miles they
tore along like the wind. Then
something went wrong with the
steerling-gear and they ran into a
tree. The farmer
alighted unhurt on shank of mess.
The car was not damaged.
"That was fine.” said the farmer.
