Viii Germany Repudiate
Her Ww-Mad Atrocities?

"Will Germany reinstate h6rself?"
asks the New York Medical Journal
editorially. SIS Germany to occupy
again the place once accorded to her
in the world of science and learning,
particularly as it concerns us in the
field of medicine, where she has con-
tributed much? 1t rests with Ger
many herself whether this shall be.
AT present there attaches to her too
Ill a savor, the too recent memory of
her exaggerated frightfulness to per-
nit those /who would otherwise do so
to welcome her collaboration in the
fields in which she once mutually en-
gagged with the other nations.
The crimes of which she has been
guilty now overshadow such work, and
she alone can change this. Those with
in her borders whose vision is broader
than national boundaries, those whose
interest is really concerned with the
progress of the work that make for
humanity and in the sharing of their
own country in such work-and there
must exist these men and women still
have upon them task which they dare
not shirk. It is their duty to their
nation and to humanity and its progress
that they arise and repudiate the out
rageous brutality with which Germany's
name has been deeply dyed. The testi-
mony of the savants of Lille. men who
speak with the accustomed calmness and
deliberation of thought and speech
wnlch belong to professional circles,
brings again certain facts to the front
with which the world has grown too
familiar. They are facts which wiring
the heart of humanity, first with pro-
found sympathy and sorrow for those
VINO have suffered at Germany's hands,
then with deeper pain and a vicarious
shame that such things should have been
permitted and encouraged by any repre-
sentative body of the German people.

THEPROBLEM OF THE PROFIT.
SHARING PLAN
Theory Versus Practice


IT'S one thing to sit at desk and
l. plan beautiful theories, but it is quite
another story when you bump up
against actual conditions.
Before I went to work at the Magnus
Brothers / had evolved profit-sharing
plan that 1 was sure would succeed
when I had rubbed shoulders with the
fellows i'm, the warehouse I changed
radically my ideals.
I thought that profit-sharing plan
paid in proportion to salary would be
proper and that the cheaper help should
get their bonus money every month,
while the more important help should
get it every year. Then I was going
to suggest a monthly meeting at which
every one should be present. The fel-
lows who get monthly premium should
have their check then-the fellows who
only got it every year should be told
how much they had to their credit.
I planned to have a list of bonuses
posted up for all to see so that every
one COulQ kilo" IL was aii Ai >
above board.
At each monthly meeting enough fig
ures prepared by the accountant should
be given SO that all could see that the
business was paying all it should.

began work as an order clerk on the
Monday following the visit OF the
Magnus brothers.
So as to make it possible for me to
work there without raising the sus-
picions of the force, ! applied for
Job on the previous Friday and was
''hlred" by Charles Magnus for $12
week.
The warehouse manager was fellow
named George" One youngster called
him "Mr. George"-everybody else called
him George" He worked there ever
since old man Mangus started the busi-
ness and was sort of privileged in con-
sequence.
He knew the stock from one end to
the other, was a walking memory ma
chine so far as prices. makers and stock
were concerned. Charles Mangus told me
that they had tried to retire George
several times on account of his age-he
was over seventy-but although he was
to receive pension equal to his salary
he positively refused to be thrown to
the rubbish heap" as he expressed it
The result was that he was there
loved by nearly everybody, and any one
who ever dared to say a harsh word
against him was decidedly "in bad" with
everybody else-even the Magauses
looked up to George, for did he not teach
them their first lessons in hardware
when they began work for their father
twenty-odd years ago?
George never heard what his other
name was-personally showed me
around the place. Then he showed me
