THE "oIL sLINeER" MACHINE.

More than half of my life ago the
cashier of n bank tapped on the win
dow as | was passing and motioned
me in. lie was n stockholder in a
factory and offered me Il place l had
been seeking. That was Thursday
afternoon and the last day of high
school for me. The next morning at
seven o'clock stood by big chuck
as one of seventy workers. My cloth
ing was not suitable for any machine
and the chuck machine was the worst
one on clothing. The boys smiled and
predicted n change in my appearance
very soon. My work was to knurl the
head OF the long screw which moves
the jaw of monkey wrench. In
those days the chuck had to be stop
ped and started for each screw: az
it started up the oil began to fly and
the faster the chuck revolyed the
greater the penetrating power Of the
oil when 1t hit me. In order to do the
work had to get in the way OF the
oil; did the work but traced the oil
from my clothing to the chuck and
the screw which came to me loaded
with 1t. The oil was secured in the
thread cutting machine where
steady stream ran on the die; some
would have seen all this at first
glance without thinking. but l did
not, even studied the bearings as
the source of the trouble, before find
ing it on the screws. When did find
the place of the trouble put bunch
of waste there and laid the screws on
it before putting them in the chuck;
the waste drew the oil on and the
machine lost its name. The machine
lost It's name because ] was dissatis-
fed with conditions. began tracing
the trouble and found the remedy
When former workman at that
chuck visited the factory and asked
where oil had gone to, on being told
the plan he opened his eyes and said
nothing. He may have been thinking
about the amount of oil he had taken
home on his clothing There are both
big and little opportunities in every
shop and factory for better methods
and originality, mutually useful to en-
ploycr and cmploye.

Just a little baby blossom. It grew and

Just as happy in the rain-time as
when skies were bright and blue;
And the rain that bathed its petals
was as kindly as the sun.
And the wind was just as kindly
when the daylight all was DONE
This was how the blossom viewed it,

So 1t smiled and grew the sweeter
with every passing hour:
And all the little faries. in moonlight.

Rejoiced and sang around II OH the

Just suppose, dear children. that the

That all kinds of times are needed
