BY the way, kid, | shall nave TO
give you little fatherly advice.
When dad and | were at the bank
getting a Wad to travel with, / asked
one of the clerks how it was that the
bank dispensed with your services.
after you had been there nearly q
year, and ! got your salary up TO Sou
a month, and were just becoming
worth your salt. He said you got
too fresh that every new responsl-
bility that was put upon. you caused
your chest to swell, and that you
walked around as though you were
prasident of the bank, and that you
got ashamed to carry your lunch to
the bank, to eat in the back room,
but went out to restaurant ana Or
dered the things to eat that came
under the Is cent list, whether you
liked the food or not. just to show off;
and instead of quietly eating the
wholesome lunch your mother put
up for you, and being good natured,
YOU eat the restaurant refuse, and got
cross, and all for style, showing that
YOU had got the big head; and that
you demanded an increase of salary
like a walking delegate, and got fired,
as you ought to have been; and now
YOU are walking on your upperS, ana
are ashamed to look into the bank.
which you think is going to fail be-
cause you have withdrawn your sup
port [ arranged with the managers
to take you back on probation, so you
go and report for duty just as though
YOU had been OFT on vacation, ana
then try and have some sense. Get
to the bank before you are expectd,
and stay a little while after it is time
to quit and don't watch the CLOCK
and get your coat on before II strikes
and don't make a center rush TOR the
door, as though YOU were escaping
from Jail Let those above YOU see
that there is not enough for YOU 10
do. and that YOU are anxious to help
all around the lace. Look upon a
bale = money just as you would look
upon a bale of hay if you were work
ing i'm a feed store. and don't look
covetous upon a pile of bills, and
wonder how much there is in it, anu
think how much you could buy with
it if it were yours. IT is Just a part or
the business. that pile of money IS,
and it is not your place TO Drood over
it with venom in your eyes, or some
day YOU will reach out and take
little, and look putty, and if they
don't find you out, you will take big
ger slice next time, and go on and
blow yourself for clothes as good as
the president of the bank wears, and
some night you will open small bot
tie of wine. and put your thumbs in
the arm-holes of vour vest, and i'm
agine you are it, and when YOU fash
your roll to pay the score, the quiet

ness. Tboy who is always looking
for another job is the one that never
finds one that suits him. The two
boys out of the twenty will seem to
look Il little rustier each year as to
clothes but their round, rosy faces will
change from year to year. the jaws be-
gin to show strength, the eyes get to
working.
THE successful boys out of the
bunch remind me of an automatic re-
peating rifle, that you put ten car
tridges in and pull the trigger and
shoot ten times with your eyes shut,
if you want to, and it hits where you
point it. Every time an employer
pulls the tri~~er on a successful bu
ness boy, and "a good idea of, business
is fired, the recoil puts new idea into
the chamber, and you pull again, and
500 on until the magazine of the bralny
boy is emptied, when you load him up
again, and he is ready for business,
and the employer wouldn't be with
out him, and would not go back to
the old-fashioned one-idea boy that
goes off half-cocked when not pointed
at anything in particular, and whose
ideas get stuck in the barrel and have
to be pulled mt with a Wormer, and
primed With borrowed powder, and
touched off by the neighbors, most
or WnOm get powder IN Inelf eyes.
unless they look the other way when
the useless employee goes off, for
anything in the world So. chum, you
go back to the bank and become an
automatic repeater in business, with
ideas to distribute to others, instead of
borrowing ideas, and you will own the
bank some day.
