An Old Insurance Man Strikes Easy
Street

There used to be in old W bste ~
county poor insurance man by the
name Of T. K. Wilson. II we mistake
not Mr.. Wilson lived at Sebree. KY.
and wiped up dust and mud from Web
sters roads for several years. He
wrote fire insurance and looked after
the interests Of the Continental Insur-
ance Company in their farm depart
ment and with all made a living. His
business increased not TO his liking.
II increased to such an extent that he
finally had a good opportunity to dis
pose Of his agency which he did TO ad-
vantage. In the final wind up and clean
up Mr.. Wilson fsnked very nearly
s 200. 90 and in March 1905 (about a
year and a half ago) he busted the dirt
from his shoes and started for Tampa.
Florida. Mr.. Wilson stayed there about
a week and saw that for him there WAS
nothing doing.
He then went to st. Petersburg.
Florida. At that time the place had
300 people. Mr.. Wilson looked about.
There was only one bank there and il
was called the First Nationl. He there.
upon organized The National Bank with
S25, 900 capital, selling each big man or
merchant 81, 600 Of the stock. Hekept
5000 stock. That bank now has on
deposit 500, 10000.
The Assistant Cashier gets $50. o.
per month and Mr.. Wilson certainly
gets better salary than that.
In six months this bank declared a
ten per cent dividend.
Mr.. Wilson then went into a rea
estate deal. He bought thirty acres Of
inside property for si4, 900 and paid on.
ly 5000 down. In six weeks he sold
ten acres Of this tract at ST.. 900. ~. Tn,
balance Of the tract was cut up intc
lots and $500 worth Of them wer,
sold. He has ten or twelve ores OF
very desirable residence lots left.
The ten acre plot Of ground was
bought by New York capitalists and
they built thereon the Manhattan Hotel.

A trustee once argued with one Of
his teachers that the 5000 per month 4
which she demanded was out Of all reas-
on; that the $500 which she then re-
ceiyed was really more than her work
merited. She made inquiry and found
that he based his estimate Of the worth
of her work upon the muscular effort
required, taking no thought Of the prep
aration nor the brain work necessary
for the proper discharge Of her duties.
This trustee did not mean to be unjust.
He reasoned that a thing is worth no
more than you pay for il. He had no
difficulty in securing any number Of
able bodied men 10 do the work OF his
farm for $500 per month. they work.
ing twenty-six days per month. while
the teacher worked only twenty. The
farm hands began at sunrise. and quit
only at sunset: whereas the teacher
worked only from eight until four. with
whole hour at noon. The teafher
was something ~ a politician, so she
grew interested in the work II the trus.
tees immense farm. and drew him out
on his methods Of management. and
incidentally regarding the efficiency and
trustworthiness Of the help which he
hired for $500 per month. By acct.
dent, she trapped the trustee into
stating that he would give most any.
thing II he could get a man with in
itiative and with real interest in the
business one who would not demand
every legal holiday II the work were
pressing. and who would have an eye
single TO the best interest Of his en-.
ployer. The teacher then summed up
the result Of the conversation very
much as follows; you say your help
are inefficient; that you must be- pres.
ent In order TO have anything accom-.
plished properly; that they are igno-
rant; that they know little or nothing
Of the work they are expected To do:
that they have no desire 10 increase
their skill or knowledge; that their only
thought Is TO give the least possible
service for the amount Of wage prom.
iscd; that, in short, one Of the men en-.
ployed at sl6.O0 per month does less
than half the amount Of work which
might reasonably be expected Of one
man. Now. since ! have had charge
Of your school. you have never enter.
ed the school RON proving thereby
that you understand that am not only
capable Of doing my work unassiSstcd.

interest in my work IN do 70 without
oversight; Tor the preparation Tor my
work. ! spent many years Of study.
and my father paid out several hun.
dred dollars of hard earned money. l.
my training worth nothing in the mar.
ket Of the word9 Is my trustworthi.
ness no asset in businossl II not. then
get your hired man 10 teach your child
rem" The trustee was taken of his
feet by this reasoning. and bastened to
say, 20. but my hired man does not
know how TO teachl'' To which the
teacher replied, Then pay me $500
for teaching. and s2LOo for knowing
how and will be content" II Is not
to be supposed she gained her point.
Trustees are human: and convinced
against their will. will hold the same
opinion still, according to an old and
true saying.

readily be supposed to have been OF

for weights, was in 1850. The earliest
snrines were not coiled, but only
straight pieces OF steel. Early watches
had only one hand, and, being wound
