THE GOVERNORS CONFERENCE
a new American institution passes
into history to-day. When the last
speech * made in the Governors Con-
ference in Washington and, the last
suggestions for uniform State legisla-
tion has been heard, historians will be
ready to note that the Governors of
the American states. for the first time
in their history, have met by their own
resolution, to discuss problems that
as states.
The necessity forlegislation and the
necessity for uniform legislation both

THE QUALITY OF LEADERSHIP.

Sir Earnest Shackleton, leader
of the "Farthest South" expedition,
furnishes a good study on the quail
ties of leadership. Even in hearing
him lecture, though he is very mod
est as to what he did himself. one
can see the qualities that made the
expedition a success shining through
his personality.
But" one will say, CT do not ex-
pect to head an expedition to dis
cover the South Pole, and so l do not
need the qualities of leadership; and
as for the North Pole, that has been
over-discovered."
But one needs the kualities of lead
ership in many places. The mistress
of the home needs it, if she is to
manage her maids most successfully,
for together they form a party for
the conquest of dust and dirt, for the
proper preparation of food for ac-
complishing al the many other things
essential to well-equipped home.
The qualities of leadership are
necessary in business if one has UNI
der him even so few as two or three
people. And one never knows when
he will be promoted to position
where he will have the management
and direction of many. So it is we'll
to cultivate the qualities that will
make for success.
What then are the qualities that
this intrepid conqueror of the south
ern wastes of snow and ice showed?
He was quick to meet an emer-
gency, to devise ways on the instant
to overcome difficulties. The boat
that was purchased for the expedi-
ton, when loaded, sank below the
line prescribed in England for
this class of ships. He Immediately
converted it into yacht for which
there was no such law. One could
see this ingenuity was ready to meet
any difficulty that turned up.
No matter how long the party
tramped over trackless fields of snow,
how short were the rations, how ut
terly discouraged and exhausted
never let his men know his eXhaus-
ton and encouragement. He might

sympathize with theirs, but he him
self was, in their eyes, always up to
the mark, and by this very seeming
vigor and hopefulness put strength
and heart into them. What he could
endure, they felt they could also.
When long, monotonous days in
camp with nothing to do told upon
the spirits of the men and predis-
posed them to Inconsistencies, he ar.
ranged all sorts of jokes and amuse-
ments from the scanty material at
hand to keep them in good spirits
No doubt he felt as little disposed to
mirth, as homesick as they, but his
keen eye took in the situation and
he knew this state of mind must be
broken up.
These qualities and many more one
could see as he lectured, and one un-
derstood why the men with him were
so faithful and indefatigable.
These same traits will make for
success in the management of the
home in business, as well as in dis
covering an elusive pole. Simmered
down, isn't it a matter of supreme
devotion to the cause in hand and
utter unselfishness. The thing he
was working for had all his heart
and soul. He thought of it and of
his men, but he rarely thought of
himself except to realize that he must
keep his health as far as possible in
order to accomplish his object and
that he must keep a stiff upper lip
to inspire the others. But all selfish
considerations of comfort or easy
work were absolutely put aside. He
didn't pick out the easy jobs for him
self; he wasn't lazy, neglectful, or
self-pitying that such a superhuman
undertaking was on foot.
Every kind of work has certain
special requirements for successful
leadership. But man or woman
can study these out, and by adding
these general qualities, make sue
cess.
