. Hired Help

If you should have in your EN-
|ploy a useless sort of man or boy,
and you're convinced he won't
improve, but plug along the same
old groove, just take him by the
shoulderblade, and tell him, quiet
ly, to fade. Don't jaw or argue
by the day, but shoe the worth
less wight away. If you would
make your business win, you'll
hire the man behind the grin, who
finds pleasure in his work, and
strives to be the model clerk. You
must have teamwork in your
shop, or you will hear some OBJ
ject drop, and you can't work that
splendid scheme, unless all hands
are full of steam. One lazy
crouch around your place, one
frost with gloom upon his face,
one kicker who is always sore,
will give his microbes to a score,
and by his anarchist harangue,
will chill the spirits of the gang.
So when he makes his maudlin
moan, just take him by the collar
bone, and push him gently from
your door, and tell him to return
no more. WALT MASON.

put up the following: President, Clar-
ence e. Weideman: first vice president
Robert e. Tracy; second vice president
Joseph c. McGarraghy: third vice
president. Esther G. Parker: secretary
Kilda b. Malcolm. and treasurer. Ben
