fenses in the northern and eastern
sides of Port Arthur, has failed, ac-
cording to advices brought by two
junks which arrived here today. A

Making an impression.

have applied for a position in a
dozen newspaper Offices and half that
many stores," said the young man
who was standing at the desk. "No
one will listen to me. I can't get a
hearing. 1 need work very badly.
The best 1 have been able to get is:
"We have nothing for you; good morn
ing I'm discourage"
And hereis what the m an behind the
desk said. 1t was not the essence OF
wisdom, just simple, hard sense:
'You came IN with your hat on,
and you keep it on. You didn't even
show the man at the desk the court
esy of throwing away the butt of the
cigarette that you had been smoking.
You ask for place in the literary
department, which showed that you
had made no investigation of the Office
you desire to enter. When question
ed you had the most hazv idea of the
position you desire to fill, and you
gave the impression that you were
looking for soft job-that you were
born tired. You really asked for
charity, for in no way did you show
or attempt to show that you expected
to earn any salary that might be paid
you.
"If you want to work and grow
and be somebody, tell the next man
so. Tell him that you will gladly
take humble position and that the
hours and the salary are of small
moments. when compared with the
opportunity. Make him feel that
you are in earnest. Take off your
hat and cut out the cigarette. And
if you don't get place in the first
time, try again and keep on trying.
"Some' day, after you have landed
near the top and the fellows are COM
ing to you for situations, you can tell
them this, that you will have learned
by years of experience:
at always pays the young fellow
who is seeking something, to show
humanity that he is every inch man

S. Shattuck and County Clerk Fred

The letting of contract for the con-
struction of the Ellinwood bridge,
was the main matter before the
Board. Nine bids, ranging from
s3495 the lowest, to $4,000 the high
est, were made. The committee of
Comanche township citizens, c. H.
Christensen, Louis Hagen, Martin
Sessler and Chas. Willms, expressed
their preference for the Interstate
Bridge Co., and as all the cost of
said bridge, excepting the $4,000 ap-
propriated by the Board on the part
of the county, is to be betrayed by
the funds furnished by the citizens of
Comanche township, their wishes
prevailed, and contract was entered
into with the Interstate Bridge Co.
After providing for an additional
line of 4 inch by IA inch joists, wings
at each end and an additional 100 #

were required in the bids made) the
