Mr.. Scott that I would be glad to
enter his service. I was; I saw
chance to better myself.
The salary was s35 a month, $40
more than I had been getting. There
is never a boy or a man employed
whose chance doesn't come to him.
The thing is to know it and seize it.
Determined to Get On

termination from the first to get on
in the world. There is a great deal
more in feeling that way than most
people think. There was another
determination that l formed in my
boyhood in Pittsburgh which I have
been able to carry out. A gentleman
named Colonel Anderson let it be
known to the working boys that he
could always be found in his library
Saturday afternoons and would be
glad to see them there. | went as

he was consistent Radical. And I
might have become a weaver but for
something that happened when I
was ten years old and had already
been going to school for two years.
One evening l heard my father
tell my mother that steam looms
were coming into the trade and
bothering him. The steam ma
chinery, he said, was best handled
in big factories, which made it bad
for the independent master weavers.
His work was falling off. He was
not getting so many orders from the
merchants who had been in the habit
Of sending him the raw material to
be woven up.
Not very long after-it was in
1847-he came in one day from de-
livering some finished damask, looked
at me quizzically and said:

to him almost as a father. | went
wherever he went, travelled with
him, slept in the same room with
him, and could not help feeling, from
his attachment to me, almost de-
pendence on me, that I had won his
affection.
One day Mr.. Scott asked me if l
could get $500 to invest. | didn't
have the money and l didn't know
where to get it, but l wasn't going to
throw away the chance of my life
the opportunity of investing with my
chief.
"Oh yes, SIR" 1 answered him, Il
can get it,"

you can. In fact, $500 is the amount
needed, and l can help you out lit

life, my chance to become inde-

slavery of salary to the independ-
ence of competence. And for the
means to accomplish this l turned to
my one unfailing, faithful friend,
my mother. I knew she could get the
money! didn't think there was
anything she could rot do. also felt
that if Mr.. Scott had known how
utterly out of the question it was for
me or my family to have $500 on
hand he would have advanced tha
whole sum for me. But my Scotch
pride would never have permitted ME
to tell anybody how poor we were.

ally put into our home. The best IN

mother said yes unhesitatingly.
What is more, she said she would
get the money for me, and she did,

Where should we go? The same

where else in Scotland. But we re-
membered that we had relatives who
had crossed the Atlantic and settled
hear Pittsburgh.
We'll go there, too," said my
mother. Its best for the boys to
begin life in new country"
We reached Allegheny City in
lS48. l was only eleven years old,
but my heart was big for the future.
I was determined to make my way
in this new country.
My father went to work in a cot
ton factory and I followed him as
bobbin boy. From sunrise to sunset
| worked, glad to feel that each day
added 20 cents to my credit on the
book. Saturday noon I drew S1.20
with a feeling not SO much Of pride
as of JOY to have money to take
home.
Six days a week l breakfasted by
candlelight and five days a week
got home after dark. But nothing
could have induced me to give this
up, except an offer for better work
This | soon got from a good Scotch
friend of ours, John Hay, who had a
bobbin factory. l was set to firing
the boilers with wood chips and to
tend the engine. Responsible work,
too, for a boy of thirteen, not big for
his age. Gradually l grew nervous
under the strain Of minding the en-
gine and working all alone down in
Hays cellar. l would wake up
nights, sitting bolt upright in bed,
hands clenched, brows knitted, from
dreams about trying the steam
gauges and finding them wrong.
Mr.. Hay needed a clerk upstairs
in the Office. He knew could write
a good hand and he offered me this
place. After filling this position for
some time | heard that boys were
wanted in the Ohio telegraph office
in Pittsburgh. l felt as though my
fortune would be made if / could get
into that office, so my father went
with me and persuaded the superin-
tendent, James D. Reid, to employ
me. Mr.. Reid often told me in after
years that he remembered exactly
how / looked that morning in my
little blue jacket with my white hair.

Now that I had got my joo at
$3.50 per week l was on thorns for
fear couldn't keep it. knew moth
ing about the streets of Pittsburgh
and the business houses to which |
had to deliver messages. So l
started in and learned all the
addresses by heart, up one side
of Wood Street and down the
other. Then / learned the other
business streets in the same way.
Then I felt safe. How pleasant it
was to me to work now in a clean,
bright Office, with desks and paper
