The Value Of
Efficient Methods

Efficiency is not new name foI
an old tru'b, so far as 1t relates TO-
industry and to individual success.
1t is an absolutely new point of view
10 the business world.
II is not Expert Accounting, for
the reason that accounting deals
only with rcc,rjs and not with
methods.
1t is not Eaergy. for the reasou
that misdirected saving is oftcn the
most suicidal Of all business policies.
1t is no. EHersy, for the reason
that misdirec,cd saving is tho most
universal Of all industrial wastes.
l, is not Save- driving, for the
reason that TITO most useless and
wasttful actions can be done In the
most systematic way. There can
easily be too much system, but there
can never be TOO IL uch Efficiency.
Efficieooy means more NET. This
little word Of three letters-NEr,
has in recent years become the most
important word in tho vocabulary Of
business. Net mans not how much
money you took in, bu! how much
you have left If you take in three
million dollars and pay out the same
amount; you have no net at all. 1t
IS better to take in Ooe dollar and
have ten cents LEFT, Than to take in
ten dollars ard have only five cents
left.
1t is the NEr that decides whcth-
cr or not We are winning or losing In
;he game OF bueinees Gross receipts
may pile up as high as q mountain,
aud yet at the end .! the year there
may be no residue of profit. 1t is
Dot volume OF buei1cas that makes
net. Neither is it ey ST. N nor energy
Tor rcsources. 1t is eli these, PLUS,
EFFICIENCY.
Consequently, there is no other
