your mouth with a ceaseless flow Of
words.
When your superior summons you
to ask you a question, answer it as
briefly, pithily and Complementary
as you know how. The more you
know, the mere compact can you make
your reply. (And, incidentally, if you
don't know, say SO without evaslon.)
Learn your job.
Then you will know how to choose
the shortest route to reach desired
result.
And when you know the shortest
route, never choose longer one.
\ Get to the point.
Stick to the point.
Lengthen your knowledge and shor-
ten your verbosity.
Brevity is as much an attribute of
success as of wit
And we all want to succeed.
Therefore, be brief.

Peace for Chicago.

A formal pledge Of Is months
peace in the building industry of Chi
cago, during which there shall be no
iurisdictional strikes, no demands for
higher wages, and no lOafing tolerat
ed by the unions, is a constructive
movement which cannot be overlook
ed This alone will not restore build
ing activity to normal, but it is a great
stride in that direction and a force
which should mean other strides.
The building trades unions are to
be highly commended for their deci-
sion. But the local building trades
are not the only things which figure
in our building activities. Capital and
material are as essential as workmen
in providing new homes, new flat
buildings, new officers, and new fac
tories.
High wages, strike delays, and, in
some cases, q tendency to slipshOd
work have contributed in part to
slackened construction; but high costs
of material, high costs of capital to
finance work, and other factors are
also to blame. Now that the build
ing trades union have shown their ap-
probation of their responsibilities and
their willingness to improve condi-
tions, it is to be hoped that those in
dividuals or organizations who influ-
ence or control the other factors will
show as much.
If men or organizations who con-
troll capital and building materials
will lift or lessen the present restric-
tions, the good intentions of the build
ing trades can work out into reali-
ties. The workers will be rewarded
Immediately for their concessions and
efforts. Capital and supply sources
will be equally rewarded by the ex-

What "Pep'' Is.

Vigor vitality, vim and punch
That's pep!
The courage to act on sudden hunch
That's pep!
The nerve to tackle the hardest thing,
With feet that climb and hands that
cling,
A heart that never forgets to sing
That's pep!
Sand and grit in a concrete base
That's pep!
Friendly smile on an honest face
That's pep!
The spirit that helps when another's
. down,
That knows how to scatter the black
est frown,
That loves it's, neighbor and loves its
town
That's pep!
To say II will"-for you know you
That's pep!
To look for the best in every man
That's pep!
To meet each laundering knockout
blow,
And come back with laugh, because
you know
You'll get the best of the whole big
show
THAT'S PEP!-Exchange.
