There is general feeling of a de.

EFFICIENCY.

Even the machine needs oil: the
man Graves a word of praise. Il
takes heat to hatch an egg. The
warmth of enthusiasm is required
for the birth of an idea. The EN-.
ployees who are enthusiastic use
their brains to the best advantage.
If you are cold, don't expect ideas
from your force.
If you show your heart to your
employees they will put their heart
in their work. A pleasant word
of concentration from you may
cause an idea to terminate in an
employers brain, for the brain is
reached through the heart. The
driven force is not the efficient
force. Goodness shrivels iniative.
Be warm with the warmth of en-
thusiasm, and with the sunshine
OF your disposition cultivate your
employees. In this way efficiency
will grow.

EXPLOSION ENT0MBS
SCORES OF MINERS
Hundred and Thirty-six Trapped
in English Co||iery.

Manchester, Eng, May 13.-An ex-
plosion in the Wellington coal mine
at White Haven cut off the exit from
the 1875 miners who were working be-
low the surface.
Rescue parties succeeded in saving
four men who had been working at the
bottom of the shaft, but were prevent
ed by the gas from penetrating to a
point where the main body of men is
imprisoned.
Every indication is that the inner
workings of the mine are afre and
there is the gravest apprehension re-
garding the entombed men.
Distracted crowds of relatives sur
round the pit head and the scene is
distressing.
The colliery is owned by the Earl Of
Lonsdale and it's workings extend four
or five miles beneath the sea.
The spot where the eighty-five hew-
ers and some fifty odd shiftmen, still
imprisoned, were working at the time
of the explosion is about three miles
from the snaft exit. The rescuers d.
rected their efforts to tunneling road
through the accumulations blocking
the passage way and have reached a
point within a mile of their goal. Their
progress, however, was slow, as dan
gerous fumes filled the workings.
