1t has been wisely observed that
most operations CARRIE more efficiently
performed by drawing them along
through their proper course than by at
tempting TO push and jam them
through. just as it is much easier to
pull rope than it is to push it. There
are probably not many persons who
have tried to push a rope. but very
many have attempted things almost as
perverse. In many manufacturing es-
adjustments, for example, there may
be seen numerous examples of men
wasting a large part of their energy
endeavoring TO move heavy pieces Of
work upon, small trucks, pushing and
laboring in the eXertion OF effort, Il
small fraction of which goes TO cause
the actual progression. Even when
such an effective aid to transport as an
industrial railway is installed it is Of
ten used at less than its proper eth-
cheney because there 10 too much push
ing and not enough pulling.-Cassiers
