THE SPIRIT THAT BUILDS.

A manufacturing concern is ordln-
AIRY, good, or great; according to the
fellow who runs 1.-THE poor ones don
last long enough to be talked about.
Several things enter into the maxi
ing or breaking. One of the determine
ing factors one that does much to
place the concern in one of these class
es-is the spirit of the men in the fac
tory; their mental attitude; the way
they look, at and feel toward the Job.
Men who work for so much money
a day, produce ordinary goods; live
in that way. and feel that way.
Men who work to do the thing I'M
der their hands and eyes. and do it
well, produce good goods; they live
and feel good.
But men who work to produce the
ideal finished product-the great work
or piece of machinery which they vis-
ualize-do great work. 1t goes with
out saying that they also live and feel
that way.
These are the men who do big things
for the concern, and big things for
themselves; the men whose minds
reach out beyond their own particular
job. They enter into the real spirit
Of production; visualize the finished
product; enter into mental partner
ship with the designers and manumac-
turers. and have a sense Of pride in
helping to produce a great work; be
it building. machine, or a book.
, It is the spirit Of the men that
counts. To instill the spirit that makes
for cooperation and the ideal product,
means TO establish the fundamental
upon which great organizations are
built. It requires big, friendly spirit.
Only big fellows can do this; but
only big fellows do all Of the other big
things It's the spirit that builds.
You who are running the concern
a department; or have Others working
for you in any way. Get the better
slant and have them work with you.
Be human, kindly. big.
Be cheerful. Remember that there
IS always some good to counter-bal-
ance the bad. Don't look at things
with half-open mind; don't take on
" a half view Of the other fellows.
Things will go wrong occasionally;
but don't let them worry you or Gre
ate a crouch" There is plenty Of
misery in the world without what you
can create. An infusion Of cheerful
ness helps lot when the other fellow
is inclined to feel miserable. Circu-
late cheerfulness. Get the habit.
The habit Of looking at the bright
side Of things gives you big advan-
tage over the fellow who pampers
crouch and sees little good in Others,
and it also adds to your personality
your mental attitude has also great
deal to do with your looks and general
appearance.
A cheerful attitude makes nature
smile with you 1t lends clearness to
the sky; Balminess to the air; more
beauty to all your surroundings; and
helps materially 10 make Of you big
ger fellow.
L isn't difficult thing to accom-
plish. The trouble lies s-the fact that
most fellows don't try. But you-weII

VTnnrDcADTcN TIrInC
FOR PARENTS
ON THE TRAINING OF A FATHER

(By DR.. David Starr Jordan, ChanceI-
lOr Leland Stanford Junior University
Note: DR.. Jordan. writes in this arti-
Gle about much older children than
this series is connected with, but he
gives such helpful advice that we
feel it should be included.
Fathers are quite as hard to train
as boys. and from experience all along
the line, have come to the conclusion
that fathers and boys alike will most
go their own way, in the long run
getting what is coming to shem."
But 1t is in the power of the father
to help the boy to realize his best in
stead o. his worst tendencies and pos
sibilities. To this end, father should
be sympathetic and patient, helping
the development of whatever natural
taste or genius a boy may have. Vir-
tue is never negative and boy is held
from idleness or vice by giving him
something better to work at. If a boy
has real love for some study or for
some worthy line of work, encourage
it. 1t marks the way out from tempt
alton. A boy needs in his develop
ment sympathy rather than financial
help. His ideals need strengthening,
not his purse. To have money to burn
will ruin all those who burn it. 1t is
hard to raise boy who is rich and
knows that whatever he wants is his
for the asking. He is likely to be
content with what money can buy, and
it cannot buy very much that is worth
having. 1t can help in many things,
but mere aid is not the thing itself.
The father can promote the plain
virtues of sobriety, honesty, tolerance,
and kindness. The most effective
way of teaching these virtues is for
him to illustrate them in himseIf-to
show how righteousness looks when it
is lived. Occasionally a father success
fully proves his point by becoming the
awful example. But that is not the
best way. and right living can be most
effectively taught, not by precept but
by practice. And remember always
that right living is positive thing.
1t is not secured by inhibitions. Don't,
don't, don't" never leads to anything
worth while. Don't say to boys:
Keep off the grass. Keep out of the
dirt. Keep away from the sIums. l"
Rather indicate places it is better to
go to: "This way to citizenship; this
way to science, to art, to worthy
profession.
II is worth while to remember that
the boy is the germ Of what the man
is to be. You cannot change his ma
lure much. but you can develop the
best in him till it overshadows the
worst. The life of man at forty will
be what was in his heart at twenty-one.
And father may say to his boys
something like this, which in one way
