woman-I give it up, for it mas been my
duty to engage hundreds of young women
starting out and so utterly impossible is
1t for me to comprehend what their real
object IN life is that have long ago stopped
guessing
But l will venture the opinion that I
never yet engaged young woman who
hoped to become a member of our board
of directors, and I am sure that most of our
young men actually hope some day to be
president OF the company.
VI course. one pays the price of success.
Just SO long as women continue to be a
sex of bargain hunters they will not cut
much figure in business.
PLEASURE BEFORE BUSINESS
The woman who is hurrying through her
business duties In order to keep an engage
ment; whose mind is upon the dress she is
going to wear at some particular function;
whose head actually becomes dizzy at the
privilege of standing the side-lines of
society and applauding will be about as
succes ! in business as the man who plays
the stock market and calls his broker up
on the telephone every half hour while the
market Is open.
So few women appreciate that it is not
their mere presence in the office that makes
for success that it Is not the regularity
with which the time clock Is punched that
brings advancement, but clear-headedness,
thorough thought and concentration upon
and love of work.
The woman for whom the working hours
are too long will never climb up. 1t is the
woman who regrets the shortness of the day
that masters business.
No one ever enjoyed parties or wanted
the fun, excitement and association of young
folks more than /, but the question 1 in
variably asked myself when an invitation
pre- nted itself was, What are my duties
sos .he next day?"
~ne must learn to say mo" to the entic-
ing cocktail the additional glass of wine and
the extra helpings of food if one would have
clear head in ~ morning. Above every
thing else, "sun lodging" is no part of the
program of a successful business woman.
There Is no short cut to business success
as there is success upon the stage The
successful business man may be angel" for
stage beauty, but If he is a business man.
he Keeps his angels on the stage. where he
can at least limit the losses from their de-
ficiencies.
Out of the most difficult as we'll as ono
or the most amusing features of NV busi
ness career has been the the slowness with
which most men comprehend that I am
actually treasurer OF the company. an officer
and member of the board of directors.
