For the Business Girl.

Never get careless about your work
and imagine that you are Indispensable
No one is Indispensable, so you can't
afford TO do anything but your best.
No matter how small the undertaking,
do II as we'll as you can.
Don't get into the way OF thinking
"Oh. this is so small and unimportant
that it makes no difference how 1 do
ltI'
II you are not reliable in small things
you can't be trusted with big things.
Never be afraid Of doing a little bit
more than you are actually called upon
to do.
1t is through seizing every opportu-
nifty that you will reach higher things.
Be cheerful over your work. II YOU
have TO earn your living, you might
Just as well be happy as grumpy
Put your whole heart and soul into
doing your work well. and treat all
with whom you come in contact cour-
teously-
During business hours attend strictly

hours you can ENJOY yourself with a
clear sense of duty done
Never talk to outsiders about what
goes on In the office.
You are in honor bound 10 look on
your employers business as something
to be kept absolutely secret by you.
