will be solidified tomorrow. This
Is the hour for shaping destiny.
Democracy in the Making
That was a great period for then
undreamed of world when the He
Drew refugees from Egypt were be-
ing consolidated into a nation. They
were safely across the Red Sea.
Pharaoh and his hosts had been en-
gulfed. Victory had sbeen achieved
over new-found local enemies. Moses
had come to be accepted-and criti-
Lcised - as leader, law-giver and
priest. Things were taking shape
fol, the exiles.
One day there came upon the
| scene the wife and two sons and
father-in-law of Moses. That was
glad reunion for the lonely man
who had sacrificed home ties for the
sake of his people. We seldom give
| thought to the price that men pay
for public service: their long ab-
| sences from dear ones, their depriva-
ton of home joys, their overtaxing
engrossment in the cause to which
they have dedicated themselves. At
| the spectacle of his joy, let us pause
| for moment to be sorry for Moses
the leader, that he missed the quiet
delights of family. life, which he had
known when meditative shepherd
| amid the hills of Sinai.
Wise old Jethro,a ripe sheikh,
with the maturity of understanding
which books cannot give, at once
perceived, as he watched the weary
throngs waiting to take counsel
with Moses, that his son-in-law had
not organized his task well. He
was attempting to do too much
alone, to the hurt of both, himself
and the people. This desert philoso-
pher knew that it is better to set
ten men at work than to do ten
mems work. The new nation was
beginning wrong: the hour was one
for cooperation in the common
tasks by distributing them widely
among all the efficient. Jethro was
for the democratic method; Moses,
all unconsciously, was setting out
in the autocratic way.
The Strong Mans Weakness
Every man who has confidence in
himself is likely to fall into the
Moses blunder. We see 1t all about
us. Recently I was in the office OF
the head of an important depart
ment of a national business organi-
zation. His position and authority
are such that I expected him to be
secluded in high state in an inner
OluC0. 4hSLCdNf ONCh tiO oAAASO 49, -
and every casual caller, could dis
tract him, and two stenographers
and an assistant sat writing beside
his over-crowded desk while he ans
wered telephone calls about ques-
tions large and small. The man Is
doing work that belongs to his
clerks. He is not big enough to let
go. Nobody can be greatly efficient
whose mind and time and desk are
so cluttered up as his. AS I came
home on the train that day, the
incident was recalled by the words
of a friend, now himself success
full businessman, who said. When
I was first given an executive posi-
ton my employer said to me, If
you ALLOW yourself to get too busy
to have time for thinking things over
you are not the man for this place"
That same. Jethro-type of message
had come to me two days before,
from a famous publicist. who de-
