Someone has divided mankind into
four classes-those Who consistently
do less than Is expssted OF them;
those who do what Is expected OF them
but no more; those who do things
without having TO be told. and finally,
those who have the magnetic power of
others TO do things.
All the failures In this world are
recruited from the first class. The
second class comprises those who
scrape along In some form OF drudgery
or hackwork Men OF the third class
are always In great demand In the fac
tory and I'm the office, but the fourth
class represents the highest rung In
the ladder OF success.
