The Golden Rule in Business,

All the newspapers and magazines
in the country are discussing the
fundamental causes of the present in
dustrial unrest. Every public speaker,
every writer and thinker has a differ
ent solution for the problem. Otto
Kahn in an address before the Car
negie Institute in Pittsburgh has about
the best solution and it's not as i'm
practical as some might think. He
says in part: "The principle on which
all concerned should deal with the
labor question is the principle of the
Golden Rule. think the formula
should be that, first, labor is entitled
to a living wage; after that capital is
entitled to living wage; what is left
over belongs to both capital and la
Dor, in such proportions as fairness
and equity and reason shall deter
mine in all cases."
You will find that many employers
know that it doubly pays them to con-
slider their employees in the light Of
the Golden Rule.
First, they consider them as indi-
viduals with Individual tastes and am
billions. They give them the work
that interests them.
Secondly, they give them a comfort
able wage so that they can do their
best work and not be troubled by the
worry of sickness and debt.
This is the application of the Golden
Rule-and very practical rule it will
be found in all lines of work.

keep it out of the paper" is the
cry which the local newspaper pub
Usher daily hears. To oblige often
costs considerable, though the party
who makes the request thinks the
granting hardly worth saying thank
you" for. A newspaper is a peculiar
thing in the eye of the public. The
newsgatherer is stormed at because
he gets hold of one item and is abus-
ed because he does not get another.
Young men, and often young women,
as well as older persons, perform acts
which become legitimate items for
publication and then rush to the news
paper Office and beg the editor not to
notice their escapades. The next day
they condemn the same paper for not
having published an item about an
other party doing the same thing they
were guilty of, forgetting apparently
their late visit to the printing office.

Private, First Glass, Co. A, 356th

Private Johnston was awarded the
Distinguished Service Cross for con-
spicuous gallantry, near Peuilly,
France, November 9, 1918. When in
formation was desired as to the en-
emy's position on the opposite side of
the river Mouse, Private Johnston,
with another soldier, volunteered with
out hesitation, and swan the river
to reconnoiter the exact location of
the enemy. He succeeded in reaching
the opposite bank, despite the evident
determination of the enemy to prevent
q crossing. Having obtained the in
formation, he again entered the water
for his return This was accomplished
after a severe struggle, which so ex-
hausted him that he had to be as
sisted from the water, after which he
rendered his report of the exploit. His
mother, Mrs. Belle Renshaw, lives in
Denver, Colo.

There is no such thing as bad boy.
The worst boy is probably better than
the best man, and if rightly treated
will show noble traits of character
that have been stunted through wrong
and unfair treatment Before you con-
denim boy, try to get his viewpoint,
and then decide what you would do
if you were in his place, with his sur
roundings and temptations. What is
condemned as wicked in a boys con-
duct is often merely his mischievous
spirit, which has taken the wrong
path through ignorance and lack Of
mature judgment.

Many girls fail to get very far in
this world because they lack good
foundation. This is, in word, gen.
>ral education. Now a general educa-
ton doesn't mean a college education,
not by any means. A college educa-
ton is indeed a fine thing but if you
can't have one the next best thing is
to educate yourself. Keep posted on
current events; form your own idea
Of Things. Read editorials and good
magazines and good books. Don't sit
around and wish you were man so
you could do great things. Through
reading and study make your service
of value to someone and great things
will come to you too.

A contemporary says that news
paper subscriptions are infallible
tests of mans honesty. They will
sooner or later discover the man. If
he is dishonest he will cheat the
printer some way; say he has a re-
ceipt some where, or sent the money
and it was lost in the mail, or he will
take the paper and not pay for it
on the ground that he did not sub
srribe for it, or move away, leaving
it to come to the office he left. Thous-
ands of professed christians are dis
honest in this particular at least, and
the printers book will tell fearful
tales in the final judgment.
