AS SOON as / got to the office this
"A morning, Perry called me to his
desk
"You needn't bother to leave with Sid
dons this morning" tSiddons is my new
crew manager.) II am going to fire you
when you are through our campaign
here"
NV heart sank. why? What have l
done wrong"
Then he laughed mot thing. young
man. But, just the same. l am going to
fire you unless you get another job in
the meantime. I don't think It Is fair to
have you ducking around the country
when your heart is set on something
better I don't blame you. for | know
you want to make good. BY the bye, did
you see this ad in the Tines"
He passed over clipping which said:
"a young man CT good appearance
and education can secure with an i'm
portant business house an opening the
future of which is limited only by his
ability. Only hard workers with plenty
of s,ick-to-it-iveness need apply. Room

turned the "ad" over in my fingers
and asked do you think it is any
good?"
II don't know" said Perry, but can
tell you how to find out
"How?"
put on your hat and beat it down to
the Magnitude Building. Go and see
what they have to say and then john
your crew l will give you the couple
OF hours off necessary to do It,"
That was pretty decent of old Perry,
wasn't It?
The Magnitude BUILDING Is downtown,
near Brooklyn Bridge. 1t is huge af-

Company. which has its principal offices
there The rest of the offices are rented
principally by lawyers. Room II was
on the seventh floor, and when ! got off
the elevator l didn't have to ask whicfi
was II, for there was quite few fell
lows already there waiting. Some of
them were the old type of buns who
answered Perry's "ad" in Boston and
some looked like the Smart Aleck book

was with him.

| as had filed out the blank. that it was
an insurance business. My first thought
was to leave there and then, because
