Advertisements of Situations
Wanted are not as correct a ba-
rometer of business conditions
because when there is general
dullness in any line of trade the
workers in that line know they

Help Wanted advertisements in
the daily papers of % leading
cities from the Atlantic to the
Missouri river, for the week be-
ginning March 2, 1913, and the

A Useful Product.

At first wood pulp was used
entirely in making paper, but to-
day it is employed for manifold
purposes. It's use bids fair to be
large for holdings, friction clut-
ches, belt pulleys, gear wheels,
barrels reinforced with Wire),
tubs, pals, washboards, water
pipes, conduits, caskets, bath
tubs, carriage bodies, floor cov-
ering, electric insulators, umbrel-
la stands, furniture, imitation of
leather, cloth, silk, etc. Clearly
the employment of wood pulp is
practically unlimited. The great
consumers of wood pulp today
are the paper manufacturers,
who use nearly ninety per cent
of the entire production. Ac-
cording to the Bureau of Statis-
tics, there are at present about
two hundred and fifty mills that
manufacture wood pulp in this
country. The capacity of those
mills is over $500, 900 tons OF
pulp annually, valued at more
than $32, 100000. In addition tt
this amount, more than 400, OO(
tons are imported from Canadt
and various countries of Europe
The value of the material receiv
: ed from abroad in 1911 was near
ly SIS, 900. 900. These figure
show an increase in the busines
of over 500 per cent in the las
ten years and the same time /
! the future promises even create
strides.

"Ten Commandments"
for Teachers.

/. Poor teachers should not
receive positions as long as there
are better teachers.
2. The more expert teachers
should be given the more difficult
positions,
3. The individual genius of
the teacher should fit the partic-
llar requirements for the posi-
tior.
a. Teachers should be put
where they can do the most good.
5. Change of position is sub
iect to three requirements: (a)
the good of the school the teach
er is leaving; (b) the good OF the
school to which she is going; (c)
the good Of the teacher herself.
6. Personal and political pull
must be eliminated
7. Teachers of equivalent a.
bility should be kept in close com
petition.
8. The method should be such
as brings an upward impetus in
salaries.
g. A teacher should never
t have her own testimonials.
| 10. SuperintendeGts should
r not get rid of "undesirables" by
writing them good testimonials

Being GA Good Fellow


Some years ago one of the poI
ular illustrators drew for a mag
azine a picture entitled, 'Fo
He's a Jolly Good Fellow" |
showed a clubroom; good looking
young men, whose faces v err
| flushed with wine, stood, will
lifted glasses, and sang theil
! toast to one who stood at the
head of the table. He was evi
IDENTIFY greatly gratified. Ht
looked as if he thought it SUI
premely worth while to have his
masculine friends, late in the ev-
ening, so demonstrative over his
social qualities.
But there was another side to
the picture. 1t showed the home
of the good fellow" where his
young wife sat waiting for him.
His house jacket was laid over a
chair. His slippers stood ready
before the fire. He had planned
to spend the evening at home,
and had not been strong enough
to do it. Meanwhile the young
wife had waited, watching the
big clock count the hours. Now
it was past midnight. 1t was not
the first time it had happened, or
the second; it would not be the
last by any means.
1t was not simply the disap-
pointment, the loneliness that
made the young wife lay her
head on the table, sobbing. She
wept because she knew that she
had married a weakling. She
saw that it meant so much to him
to be regarded as a Jolly good
fellow" that he gave up other
things infinitely greater. She
had learned that his good fellow
ship had in it selfshness and
weakness.
It is pleasant to be called a
"good fellow" but it is a shame
full thing if we gain it through
another's needless suffering, OF
at the cost of our own self-respect
and manhood! Youths Compan'
ion.
