Why Look For One?

Now, why do you look for a job.
and take one when it comes?
To earn money.
How can you earn more money
than the sum at which you start
in?
BY keeping eVerlastingly at every
one of the things mentioned above.
Take Health. for instance.
Health is an effect that follows a
cause. The cause is made up of
several items. Simple food, pure
water sufficient sleep, deep breath
ing, absolute cleanliness of the body,
a determination to be cheerful and
no bad habits.
Now. when the Boss hires you
he reasonably expects that you will
keep well and be able to do the
work you agree on, He will prob
ably never ask you if you over eat
or drink bad drinks or fail to take
bath every day But he will
know in a flash when you are not
making good on these.

then, the birds had no reason to

showed nothing resembling wings,

ready to snatch their prey.
But the aviators have altered all
that. The monoplane, especially
looks so much like a gigantic bird

the statement that the native in

Take Interest in the work, for
example:
Any job that is worth your time
is worth every minute of it
No job, worth while, has any

Most Jobs look simple on the sur.
face But the success element of A
job is under the surface. Even the
Boss does not know how tar under
1t IS. SO it is your business to
dig 1t up.
A boy, who went into a. factory IA
work, began to count the number of
motions necessary to move things
from place to place. He found out
that too many motions We're being
used. He arranged the material SO
as to reduce the number. The re-
suit was the output increased and
the work paid more profit.
No Boss ever lived that will not
notice a result like that.
What a Girl Did.
A girl who worked at a ribbon
counter studied the demands Of the
stores customers until she knew
just how to arrange the stock on the
shelves SO that she could reach OUT
and get it with the least loss OF
time.
What was the result?
She used fewer motions. Hence
she did not get tired so quickly as
before. Stock called for frequently
was near at hand. Stock called
for once a week was not in tha
way. The customer was served
more quickly. And, finally, more
customers could be served in an

be done.

1t means that you go out

And for this reason:
Whether you work for Yourself or

conducting your own business. You
are your own Boss!
The principal things that go into
making a success of job are sim
