WHY a $4,000 MAN GOT FIRED.

In the July Woman's Home Com
panion is the following story Of how
and why a $4,000 man got fired:
"A big commercial house in the
Middle West raised the salary Of one
of Its officers to $4,000 year.
The officer was greatly pleased.
Now my ambition is satisfied. he
said.
"within two years the concern had
found way to dispense with this Of
ficer's services. It was done cleverly
and smoothly; the man never sus-
pected the real reason why he was re-
leased.
"The head Of the concern had over.
heard his remark. We want no men
in this business whose ambition is sat.
isfied,' he said. When q man is sat.
isfied. when he ceases to plan and
fight for the future. we begin to lose
money on him."
