The originator of the plan, John
Leitch, an efficiency engineer, start
ed it among 500 employees of a Fort
Wayne piano factory. It's basis was
the constitution of the United States.
The factory was administered by a
senate, a house of representatives and
a cabinet corresponding to the aids
and advisors of the president. Its
success is said to have been immed-
late and permanent. Yale University,
the National Council of Defense and
the National Association of manufac-
turers are said to be a few of the
bodies that are investigating the mer-
its of the plan.
b. Edmund Davis, head of the silk
manufacturing corporation in Pater-
son, N. j., who was instrumental in
introducing the system in his factory
in that city about a year ago, ex-
pressed today the keenest satisfaction
at the results attained and said he

adopted which was to guide manage

CONFIDENCE AND ABILITY.

Confidence in oneself and ones ability is nee
essary to any success. Whatever business
may be, in some way it must be related to other
people, and we cannot expect to gain the conf
dence of others unless we have confidence our
selves.
But we must not forget that there is differ
ence between self-confidence and self-conceit.
Confidence must necessarily be based on ones
reliance on ones self. Self-conceit has no basis
except in egotism.
We hear and read a great deal about this nee
essity of having confidence in ourselves and our
abilities and the need of impressing these quail
ties on other people in order to insure our sue
cess. And this is true, as far as it goes, but,
strange to say, many of us overlook the fact that
we cannot impress our abilities upon others I'M
less we possess those abilities.
No matter how successful may wish to be,
no matter how ambitious, how determined how
sure of ourselves, unless our confidence is based
upon something within us that demands our own
respect as well as the respect of others, we must
eventually fail.
How can we have confidence in our own ability
unless we possess ability? 1t is as foolish as to
talk about confidence in oneslf, unless one has
something to be confident about, as it is to ex-
press personality unless one has a personality
worth expressing.
The thing for to do is to build up our ability
and self-confidence by doing our level best at all
times and in all places-so shall be build char
acter as well as ability.

IDEAL HEALTH PROGRAM.

For those who like to figure problems in money
terms will present this. At the present time
we have educational plants which cost certain
amounts to construct and maintain. We know
that the children who attend these schools are
not physically efficient. We cannot place the
estimate higher than 80 per cent of what it
should be. AS definite proof of this any school
examiner teacher will tell you that the more
backward group of children the more physical
defects are found. Is it good business to at
tempt to turn out good product from inferior
material when the raw material could be made
better?
1t is stated that rural children are less healthy
and therefore handicapped by i'll health
than city children even including those from the
slums. There are many reasons why this is so
and it all comes back to health supervision on
the part of all concerned. Even local figures
agree in this direction 1t is observable that the
percentage of eye troubles, like "granulated
lids" (trachona), is less in the city than country
children. Many of these more favored children
have come from other parts of the country where
school supervision is more complete. At the
same time in the schools of this city even the
teaching organization has been better built so
that more and better experienced teachers have
kept sharper lookout.
1t would seem that the combination or Tree
schools and compulsory education would be the
creative force for the great opportunity of health
education. The cooperation of the home and
the school should be fostered by the centralized
health department. The home and school should
embody the practical lessons of sanitation and
wholesomness. Health habits would then be il
Illustrated and not preached. Furthermore, if
parents and teachers would learn the early COM
mon symptoms of contagious diseases and the
proper action to take even before the school doc
tor found them there would need be
fear of school epidemics These happen now be-
cause the newly sick are allowed to mingle with
the well. This is done generally through ig-
norance. But there are yet too many instances
where exposure to contagion of young children
is made by parents so that they will "have it and
be over with it." Some day such things will not
be done.
Our aim and final goal then is an ideal health
program carried into effect among the portion
of our population of school age. Such health
program which lies before this, as other COM
munities, is a complex It involves the
operation of parents and teachers with the school
ties. The amount of work which needs to be
done may well seem discouragng But with a
permanent group of earnest spirits the task of
making better class of men and women for the
near future from the child life of today need not
be considered impossible. What is being done
elsewhere can be made an accomplished fact in

now that she is married and has house
of her own, she knows how to take care
of it.
GO, YOU see, there's hope for that
Ogirl who can't go to college. There's
something beyond those four years.
There's nothing finer in the world for
girl than college education and college
life-if she can afford it. But IL she
cant there's no reason for her to feel
that her life is blighted. She can still
hope to be success in the business,
literary, artistic or just plain every
day world, if she just plays up that
talent that she has. She may be gifted
with a singing voice, a painting hand, a
writing mind, business head, or q
home making heart. A college educa-
tion would help all of these gifts. But
they can get along without it if they
have to.
Don't be discouraged IL you cant
have those glorious four years. Your
teachers may be disappointed in you
now, but If you stick to it and win out,
and come through with a good position,
just about the time the girls who went
to college are starting in at their first
"iobs," those teachers will be proud OF
you and your success and the person
you work for, or the man you marry
will find you just as satisfactory as IL
you had been through college.

which she cannot, it wouldn't be fair
to steal those years from the living that
she must start to earn as soon as she

She's unhappy. She is fond of her
work and the life with her classmates,

life that she wants but can never have.

What TO DO
BY CYNTHIA
That For You, "old Bachelor!

fSI tOtt WV SoS'S'S'
Dear Cynth hia---1n answer to the letter
signed "Old Bachelor" in the evening
paper, I would like to say a few words.
Old Bachelor, you say that you are
going to devote your leisure hours to
getting in crowded cars just to watch
women stand in the nisle. Well, just
you remember this: that most of these
hard working women are supporting
n family, and after working all day,
many go home to work again. After
last years epidemic and the men lost
Mt war, you will find many women
working for living and remember, too,
"Old Bachelor" that you had a
mother; perhaps she wasn't forced to
work to keep you, but if she had been,
son, you would not have liked the
thought that some strong young fellow
like you, who signs old to your name,
would have held on to seat and let
her stand.
SO don't let little things embitter
you toward others who don't deserve
unkindness again. Perhaps you de-
served what you got from this girl.
You say you sent her money from
France. Well, if you could have af-
forded to do this, why did you not
make her your wife and then no one
could have had her, so you see that
YOU were in the wrong.

UE7vERYTHING is about the same,

" wv ER1 lhlNb Is ABOUT tne same,
IL said Miss Tully after moment S
silence. She was not particularly cor
dial. in fact, she was annoyed at Julia ;
she felt that the girl was being fooliShly
conscientious. But if Julia noticed any
thing at all it did not bother her par
ticularly. Often when she had been at
work in the hospital Miss Tully had
treated her brusQuely. Always when
anything had gone wrong the nurses
VERT treated with unusual intolerance,
their faults were exaggerated. their eff
forts misunderstood.
How about Grace Merritt and DR..
NugentE'
Miss Tully shrugged her shoulders
Grace Merritt's S a fool, was her curt
observation.
Julia laughed. and then at brief
knock at the door her heart leaped
to her throat. She held her breath for
minute as the door opened and then
Dick Nugent himself, resplendent in
white duck. came into the room. He
stared at Julia as if she had been a
ghost.
