the time of the rail. Mr.. Pharaoh said:
The whole trouble was started by three

who were discharged because they were
carbuncles on the neck OF a prosperous
organization. They were engaged TO sell
stock on a salary and commission basis.
They sold a little stock, but they did not
show themselves capable of the work they
claimed they could do.
