the story of two country boys. one was
ambitious and early left the farm for

ROOM At THE TOP

Don't be afraid that after you have
trained yourself and worked hard i'm
a calling there will be so much over
crowding you cannot get to the top
OF the ladder There is always room
at the top, but IT takes grit to reach
1T. There is no overcrowding there.
Every business concern in the coun-
try has difficulty in finding men to
fill the big places in their establish
ments-the places that pay the big
salaries
There are plenty of mediocre people
standing around waiting to fill these
places, but they won't do The de
mand of the times is for men who
have fitted themselves to fill big
places proficiently-men who do not
need % be told what to do next
but men who have initiative. men who
have ideas, men who are continually
training themselves for tomorrow's
work and for tomorrow's opportuni-
ties.
At business mans banquet i'm one
of the larger cities recently one of
the speakers very prominent man
said that there was deplorable de-
ficiency in thes upply of capable men
men whom the heads of a concern
could trust To carry on their bust
ness were they suddenly called away,
or men who could themselves per
form work i'm the capacity of execu-
tive officers. In illustration. he said
there We're plenty of men capable Of
filling $1,000 jobs. but that the $4,000
ones went on begging tours looking
fAr D,
up and fill them.
The spirit of encouragement has
been abroad in the land for number
of years. set in motion 10y the thought
less and uniformed person who has
ever been ready to declare that all
fields of endeavor were overcrowded
and that competition is So strong that
there is no chance for ambitious men
without influence to get places.
Such statements are both wrong and
vicious They are harmful because
they kill aspirations. and aspiration is
necessary To success
Competition Is strong. Influence is
necessary. but it is not of the good
old-fashioned quality-the influence
OF capacity To- work, ability to per
form and reliability i'm place of trust
and responsibility There are men
who are gotten into god positions
by family or political influence. but to
hold these places they have to prove
themselves worthy. Business Compe-
tition is So strong today that no con-
Germ can afford to keep men in its
employ because they are friends or
the sons Of friends. or the sons Of
some one else's friend. The man must
himself prove worth while. he must
demonstrate that he has all the pc
cular qualities for which the place
calls
Therefore. young man. don't worry
