EnaIand,s Great LittIa River.

One could hardly fancy an England
without the Thames. 1t is the source,
the inspiration, the participant, in so
much that distinguishes England's syl-
van beauty. In the centuries that
have lived upon its banks 1t has been
potent factor in the civilization Of
this island kingdom 1t cuts In twain
and laves the burliest city in all the
world. a dark mass Of human struc-
ture impenetrably profound. 1t rides
a vast commerce from London to the
sea, and along its jutting wharves
nights are often made darker with its
tragedies. Years agone kings and
princes and the fairest women In the
land rode upon Its tide in functions Of
state or in the idle pose of pleasure.
Those were the days of the garlanded
barge or the hooded galley foist,
which, gliding stealthily beneath the
Tower portcullis, lost another noble to
the world of politics and intrigue

If the passion for efficiency accom-
plishes nothing more 1t will-indeed, 1t
has already-upset one of the most sa-
cred tenets that altruistic employers
ever put into the constitution and by
laws for the observance of employees.
That tenet is, Don't watch the clock.
1t was hoped, Of course. that If en-
ployees could be made to forget the
clock they might also forget to 20
home at the expiration of the time for
which they were paid.
Efficiency now makes the revolution
airy demand that you should never take
your eyes from the clock. To be a
topnotcher in efficiency you must go
even further. You must get a stop
watch with split second hands and
make sure that each minutest divi-
sion Of time has assigned to 1t a pre-
else and particular action, being or

The Mullinsers and the Hapsburgs.
The Mullingers are one Of those old
Swiss families concerning whom my
friend DIR. Curt, distinguished Swiss
national historian and director of the
Frankfurter Zeitung, recently told me
the following amusing incident, writes
a correspondent.
Years ago Mullinger was one Of
the stan of the Swiss legation at VI
emma. On being presented to the EN-
peror Francis Joseph he bluntly ex.
pressed his pleasure at making the ac-
quaintance Of his majesty, which
pleasure, he added, was all the great

burgs were mere retainers of the Mul-
lingers."
