TO try to make that same man buy

When l say that a young man
must specialize. don't think that I
mean that he must close his eyes to
all the other branches Of the bust
ness in which he may be. In fact,
the more Ls can pick up about ths
various departments the more valu-
able he may be in a place Of i'm
portance later on. And it is in this
particular that a good many of the
young men who come to this coun-
try from Scotland and England
have the advantage Of our American
boys.
You ask. how do young foreign
The Washington times., 1906-12-02

Il do not wish TO detract from
the good reputation which the boys
OF Washington have made in the
business world. for many Of them
have gone far and viii 90 farther
before they are through. But I am
always glad to see country boys
come here for employment. Per
haps It is because / was a coun-
try boy myself once. And when 1
came to the city TO begin work
had a salary Of $3.50 a week.
There's another country boy" said
Mr.. Woodward, pointing to a your
man standing at a desk a few feet
away. He started here with us
at 81 a week, and now his salary
is over $4,000 a year. Yes, be
heve IN country boys. I believe
in their ability to work. But don't
misunderstood me. A boy need not
necessarily be a country boy to
succeed here.

Not Crowded Out By Girls.

Not a bit Of it." he replied in
stantly. There has been lots Of
talk about women entering mans
field OF work But in my opinion
there is room for both the men and
women workers in Washington, and
I haven't a doubt but what this is
largely true elsewhere. We en-
ploy nearly as any young women
as We do young men. with the
ratio slightly in favor Of the men.
AS far as their respective abilities
are concerned. I'd rather withhold
my opinion, Mr. Woodward smiled.
1T would never do TO stir up a
controversy Of that kind. But
will say that the girls have held
their own in many instances We
were the first firm in the country
10 employ women as buyers. That
was twenty-five years ago. They
proved a great success. and why
not? The women OF the household
do most of the buying for the fam
lily. Is It not reasonable TO sup
pose, therefore, that women can
select the things for other women
TO buy?"
Women in places Of responsi-
bility? Yes, they frequently hold
places of responsibility. and they
have done as well as the men.

eTs compare with the home product?
That is a question which is rarely
raised in Washington, for the sim
pie reason that there are very few
young men employed in business
Louses here who are foreign born.
I should say that 80 per cent of the
young men whom we employ in all
departments are American born,
and the great majority OF them are
