GREAT STEEL PRODUCER
STARTED AS IS CLERK

Into his work as a grocery clerk
young Charlie Schwab threw all his
energy, says Boys Life, the Boy
Scouts magazine for June. OF late
years one of his favorite sayings has
been: THE man who has done less
than his best has done nothing"
Back in Braddock, he lived up to
that motto. He gave his best; he stu
died when he could; he laid the
foundation for all that he later ac-
hieved.
The world has a habit of searching
out the doer. One of the customers
of the grocery store was Capt Bill"
James. OF Andrew Carnegies Edgar
Thompson Steel works. Captain Bill
was attracted 10 the grocery clerk
who worked as though work was a
pleasure By the time Charlie Schw-
alb was l8 years old the grocer was
paying him IS a week. Then Capta ain
"B IL offered him 50 week to go
out with a civil engineering gang.
The job was the drudgery OF simply
carrying chains and driving pegs.
But within six months the boy who
gave nothing short of his best was
boss of gang.
Charlie Schwab the doer, had be-
gun to climb. He had begun to make
his mark upon the steel industry OF
the world.
From that time his rise was rapid.
Within another year he was chief
engineer and assistant manager of
the Edgar Thompson steel works.
and at the age OF Is he was superin-
tendent.. of the Homestead steel
works Now he holds office as presi-
dent of the Bethlehem steel corpora
ton, the worlds largest makers OF
steel
In the short space of a few years
the one time boy who had learned 10
do things and do them right had
climbed and scrambled over obsta-
cles, despite brusied shins and in
iured feelings to the very top Of the
country, biggest and richest indus
try. Almost overnight, so to speak,
he had gained the promin, nee of be-
ing the foremost steel" man in the
world

ALBUQUERQUE WATER BOND
ISSUE APPROVED BY COURT

The issue of bonds by the cont
mission government of Albuquerque
in the sum of 100000 for the pur-
pose of purchasing the water distri-
buting system and franchises owned
by A. B. McMillen, attorney and
capitalist of that city, was approved
by the state supreme court Wednes-
day in a decision rendered by JUS
tice Clarence J. Roberts and concur
red in by Justice Parker and Chief
Justice Hanna, in the friendly suit
brought by McMillen against the city
authorities to determine the validity
of their action.
The court says that the officials
who signed over the bonds were de
facto officers and the inference is
that they were competent to perform
this function. The court declines
however to pass on the constitution
ality of the Albuquerque form of
government one of the points raised
in the proceeding. holding that a de-
cision of this kind should properly
follow an action instituted by the
state attorney general to determine
the question.

FLAG ETIQUETTE
HOW AND WHEN
TO PAY RESPECTS
Prepared by the National Commit.
tee Of Patriotic Societies,
Washin rton. ID. C

When the colors are passing. the
spectator, if man, should halt if
walking, arise if sitting and uncov-
er, holding the headdress opposite
the left shoulder with the right hand
A woman should stand at attention
as the flag passes by.
When the Flag is waving from a
stationary flagstaff or pole it is not
saluted with the hand.
In decorating the Flag should new
er be festooned or draped Always
hung flat. If hung with stripes hor-
izontal, Union should be in upper
left corner.. If hung perpendcu
larly. Union should be in upper right
corner
When the Flag is carried in par-
ade, or when crossed with other
flags, the Stars and Stripes should
always be at the right.
Commercial Use Forbidden
The law specifically forbids the
use,. OF and representation of the
Flag in any manner or in any con-
nection with merchandise for sale.
The Flag should be raised at sun
rise and lowered at sunset It
should not be displayed on stormy
days or, except when under fire of
the enemy, lett out over night Al
though there is no authoritative rul-
ing which compels civilians to lower
the Flag at sundown, good taste
should impel them to follow the ira
ditions of the Army and Navy in
this sundown ceremonial. .Primar-
lily the Flag is raised to be seen, and
secondarily, the Flag is something
to be guarded. treasured, and so tra-
dition holds that it shall not be men
aced by the darkness. To leave the
Flag out at night, unattended, is a
proof of shiftlessness, or at least OF
carelessness.
Must Not Touch Ground
On Memorial Day, the Flag hould
be displayed at half-mast from sun
rise until noon, and at the peak from
noon until sunset. 1t should, on be-
ing retired, never be allowed. to
touch the ground.
When the "Star Spangled Banner"
is played. or sung, uncover. stand
and remain standing, IN SILENCE.
until it is finished.
Applause at the conclusion of the
"Star Spangled Banner"a is out of
place.
Worn out and useless flags should
be destroyed by burning.
A Flag torn or frayed by the wind
or weather should never again be
hoisted until it has been repaired.
This is a regulation of both. the
Army and Navy and should also be
followed by all civilians.
