"A (JOOD LOOKER"
Ajijiearaiices    have   much   to   tlo   with success in Buainess.
"Send me a good looker. 1 tion't mean pretty, you know, but one who knows how to iiress—-the tailor-made kind, who visits the hair dresser and the manicure. Of course, I know it costs, but we are willing to pay for it." This was a telephone message received by a large employment bureau from a business man who required the services of a young woman book¬ keeper and general office assistant.
A shabby necktie or soiled linen or a cheap, well worn hat may cost you very dear, for it may be a turning point in some one's mind who has been thniking of patronizing'you. Business men are keen eyed, very sharp and of¬ ten influenced by little things. Many a worthy youth has been sent away when applying for a situation because <if some tell-tale in his dress or manner which made a bad impre.ssion.
Young men rnay so far emphasize the matter of dress that their good appear¬ ance is about ail there is to them. At the same time appearances have much to do with one's advancement,.»eapec- ially in  large cities.     In New   York it
he ever stoop to it. The sons of half- starved teacher.s, lawyers, traders and others, who are unsuccessful in their overtrowded tailings, are turning their attention to our cheaper lantls, sure to find there what they nor their jiarents have know^i lu'ver before ¦ truly intle- j/endent homes.
Big Hauls of Cod F'ish The season for codfishing in this .section has been one of the best ex- jierienced in man.y years b.y those who follow the vocation, and some remark¬ able catches have been made. _ One of these occurred Friday last, when Caji¬ tain Oliver Herbert and his son took 2(i.'i line speiimens from the waters of the -'Atlantic with hook and line in about four hours.
There is practically no market for the fish iu the city, according to re¬ port, the price offered being so low that it does not jiay local fishermen to make shipments. Many of them are dis}iosiiig of the fish to local trade, antl others are salting them down for family use or until the market be¬ comes more [irofitable. The jireva- lence of warm weather is thought to be the cause of the cod ruiming so Jilentiful ly and so near shore, most of the catches ot-curing just outsitle the bar.
Four Generations Represented Thank.sgiving Day was the occasion of a hajipy family reunion at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Taft, Raynor Street, when four generations met, and from the  great-grandfather,   Capt. E.
D. Taft, of Brooklyn, down to his little six-nionths-old great granddaughter, all had a happy time. Capt. P^lijah I). Taft, of 4li2 Bainbridge street, is 87 years of age and for many years has been a Brooklynite. One of his sons was Andrew E. Taft,who married Miss Annie Seaman and settled in this place. Three boys were the result of their marriage, Samuel E., Edgar C. and Ly¬ man W. Taft, all of whom married and moved away except F^dgar, who resides in this village. Lyman W. Taft, the youngest    son,   married    Miss    Mabel
E. Post tif Seaford, two years ago, and about si.x months since a young daugh¬ ter came to their home, which com¬ pletes the four generations. Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Taft re.side at Inwood. Ba¬ by Marie ,vas six months oltl on Wed¬ nesdav.
