THE MAN AND HIS JOB.

Are you making use Of every one
Of the 600, 900, 600 cells in your brain ?
Or are most Of them plugged up with
stupid laziness? Each one Of those
cells represents unit Of work. just
AZ each cell in the honey-comb means
a certain amount of labor for the bee.
The bee hive cells are filled with
honey and the cells Of your brain are
filled with protoplasm. This proto-
plasm may be dead, useful stuff, or it
may be the active, wide-awake kind.
Is the protoplasm in your brain
dead or alive? If most of it is dead, |,
then wake it up. Stimulate 1t with
some good old-fashioned hard-headed
thinking. Don't be afraid to think
hard. If you are not required to
think constantly in your present posi-
tion, get job where you will have
to use all your brains.
The average weight for the human
brain is 800 grams. The monkey 3
brain weighs 100 grams. II you are
using only half your brains, then you
are no better off than the monkey,
and who wants to be monkey?
When you accept position with u
concern you are selling your brains
all of them. Be fair in the matter.
Be fair with your employer and be
fair with yourself. Give him all you
have. Let the convolutions in your
gray matter grow deeper. Get tile
benefit of every one of the 600, 900. 600

all under the personal supervision OF

The dam and intake for the irriga-

Beaver empties into tho Arkansas.
The dam is 32 feet high and 22 feet
