EMPLOYERS LOOKING
FOR EFFICIENT MEN
Labor Troubles Leading to a Better
Understanding Between Men
and Arbitration Prevails.

The efficient man Is the man the en-
ployer is looking for to-day. He wants
the man who can give him the best re-
turn for the money invested. When
he finds the efficient man he will pay
him what he is worth. But efficient men
are not so plentiful
For years the employer and the en-
plOye to a certain extent forgot the COM
mon ground Of efficiency. They went
ahead. working one for the other, with
out much thought Of the efficiency end
of the contract. But times have changed
and are changing still. Doctrines of ef-
ficienCy have been made the subject of
magazine and newspaper articles so that
now nearly every employer OF labor in
this country is thinking of efficient
workmen and how to get and how to
treat them after he gets them.
The National Trades and Workers As
sOciation aims to bring those two to-
Eether-the efficient workman and the
efficient and patroniZing employer. 1t
has contended all along that the best
solution OF the industrial peace problem
lay in the getting together Of the en-
ployer and the emPlOye.
Once they are brought together. discuss
efficiency and other matters of a kindred
interest to both. it is but a short step
to the arbitration table and all disputes
will be settled by "a reasoning together"
That is the idea along which this asso-
citation is working and in nearly, every
instance success has come its way. Eff
ficient men-men who are capable and
who are able to think for themselves-
ii wants for its members. 1t wants enl-
plOycrs to join, tOo-employers who are
not of the old style. Tabid, fighting class,
but who are willing TO meet with this
employe and take an interest in his
work. not only the work he is doing for
the employer, but for others.
Students of economics admit that in a
settlement of labor troubles on peaceful
lines, it is absolutely necessary to have
the cooperation of the employer and
those employed. That is the corner stone
of the entire structure and once that
corner stone is properly set, the building
OF the monument will proceed rapidly.
The average workman who Is efficient
likes to have his efforts given a considera-
ton. He likes TO have his employer
treat him with little bit Of Difference.
We are all human and the workingman
is more human than many of the rest
Of us. He sees things. thinks things,
and does things that other classes might
never dream Of. He Is the man who
must be helped. Once helped, he will
help himself and at the same time, un-
der any plan of cooperation, will help
the employer.
II is 10 the efficient workmen and the
employers who are willing to help bet
ter the condition of the workingman that
the National Trades and Workers Asso-
citation appeals. II wants interested en-
ployers and II wants efficient employees.
An organization built along lines pf
efficiency for the wOTkmen and along
lines of human interest on the part Of
the employer cannot help succeeding.

NEW PATENT WHEELBARROW
Invention Fills a LonE-felt Want
Among Contractors.

The well-recognized difficulties met with
by contractors in handling concrete in
ordinary wheelbarrows, including that OF
placing the concrete mixture Just where
il is wanted, have led to the development
of a patent wheelbarrow. 1t Is called the
Long patent automatic dump concrete
wheeIbaTrow, and is manufactured and
distributed by Miller & Coulson, Diamond
Bank Building, Pittsburg, Pa. Many be-
Iieye that 1t meets a long-felt want Of
concrete workers and handlers of other
building materials who find the ordinary
wheeIbarrUw disadvantageous.
With this wheelbarrow, material may be
easily placed where ii is wanted by di-
recting the single wheel along the plank
to the point desired and pushing down on
the handles, which raises the rear OF the
hopper, dumping the concret in front Of
the wheel or at the side of the wheel
barrow as desired, as they are made to
dump either forward or to the side. The
strength, simplicity, and ease OF opera
ton are some of the strong points claimed.
