News of the Ring Game

During the last few weeks the fight crit
les throughout the country have been Sc
verely roasting Johnny Coulon, the ban
tamWeight champion, for not giving Kid
Williams. the Baltimore cyclone, a crack
at the title.
The real facts in the case, however.
are that Johnny has not been in the best
of health lately and the loss of his father,
who was the best pal the little fellow ever
had, has not left him in the best of spirits.
Coulon is feeling some better now and
will begin light training soon. When he
is back in shape a match between he and
Williams would be the best that could be
had in the country.
Williams, by hard and persistent work,
has fought himself up to where he is the
only real contender for the bantamweight
crown and should he and Coulon meet the
Baltimore Kid will give Johnny the bat
tie of his life.
Jim Jeffres has announced his intention
to re-enter the ring. Mr. Thomas Sharkev
will now step forth from behind the Wet Wet

Both boys realize that they have
a heap to gain if they win and lots
to lose if beaten. The winner has
practically been promised bout
with Leach Cross at the Audi
torium- Armory a week or ten days

New Orleans tonight and will stop

over Cross would put either O'Keefe

II HERE are three kinds of en-
ployes:
First, those who shirk,
clock men, who are sorry OF be-
gin and glad to get through. They
never get anywhere to stay there.
Secondly, the faithful-the "on-
timers"-who do what they are told
to do and do it we'll, but who lack
ambition, who can't or won't take
the initiative, and who are satisfied
with mere duty doing. They don't
lag; they don't squirt.
Thirdly, those who have all the
virtues of the second class, but add
to them, and intensity them, with
an unquenchable desire, not only to
accomplish the work in hand, but
TO be of continuous use to their
employer. His interest is always
on their mind. They are willing
and anxious to do something,
whether it be much or little, which
will make it easier for those above
them and be prhotable for the bust
ness.
These are the men who succeed,
who eventually enter business for
themselves, who never stay on the
bottom rung of the ladder of ac-
cumplishment, but are more than
halfway up TO the top, and some
OF them are at the top.
They get somewhere, because
they are interested in everything
which pertains to their work. They
become familiar with the character
iStics OF their employers, treating
those above them as if they were
profitable customers, properly cater
ing to them and meeting their lit
tie or large wants.
They not only know themselves,
but they know those for whom they
work.
They are students of human ma
turc, and arc able to diagnose, with

some degree of correctness, their
employers likes and dislikes, and
methods of doing business.
They are not mere workers.
They are a great deal more. While
low in the business scale, they are
working upward for themselves,
and, at the same time, they are ac-
ceptable and faithful employees.
They get down to "rock-bottom'
and learn the construction of the
house of business from the founds-
ton stones to the topmost pinnacles.
No matter how subordinate their
positions may be, they look up into
the heights of accomplishment, at
the same time keeping their feet
firmly planted upon the ground of
circumstances.
While they are a part of the
great business engine, and are
obliged 20 work automatically at
times, they think while they work,
and do the insignificant things so
well that, sooner or later, they are
able to do better things.
While in the ranks they work as
common soldiers of business, but
they watch their officers, and study
them, that they may be able, when
the time comes. to meet promotion
successfully. While carrying the
gun. they familiarize themselves
with the WELDING of the sword.
Their superior officers or employ.
ers are their teachers. They look
up to them, and emulate them, so
far as they can without sacrifice of
individuality.
Every profitable employe, profit
able to himself and to the man for
whom he works, is not only in
business, but he is at school; and,
no matter how tedious and unin-
teresting his work may be, he does
not consider the office or the fac
tory a treadmlll, but an institution
OF learning, in which he is to fit
himself for the sterncr responsible
ities of life.
