How To Get A Job I Told by Henry P. Davidson Bank President Financer and Member of the Firm of J. P. Morgan & Go.
 As C. Magazine

The story of how Henry P. Dawson won his first foothold on the New York banking ladder reveals the stuff he is made of. He had quickly risen from office boy to receiving teller in mod est bank at Bridgeport, Conn, when he read in the newspapers that new bank was being formed in New York Young Dawson wanted to go to New York. He wanted to go very badly. In fact, he made up his mind that he must get position in this new bank.
 Armed with a letter from one of his directors who knew the cashier, he took the afternoon train to New York and handed in the letter.
 The cashier treated him most cor dially that the young man left smiling, although without any job.
 His smiles wore off when he got into the train homeward bound and thought matters over
 But he was not to be so easily lickedi Next afternoon, when the bank closed, he again boarded a New York train. The cashier, although some what surprised to see him back again accorded him a very pleasant inter view, but explained that il was out of question to engage an out-of-town man as paying teIler-that was the of flee DaviSon was after. They must have a man with New York experience and of wide acquaintance. The cashier was so frank and sympathetic, how ever. that for the second time it was a smiling youth who left his presence
 The homeward journey, however dis sipated the smiles He would try again
 Next afternoon, for the third time he started for New York, more deter mined than ever to get the place he wanted.
 The cashier has gone fsr the day" was the chilling message he received.
 Where does he live?" asked young Davidson. undaunted.
 :. In half an hour he was inside the cashiers home. A servant explained hat his employer was dressing to 20 put to attend a dinner. All right, the visitor would wait
 On entering the room the cashier burst out laughing. So did Davidson,

tist minister. Others prominently iden- tified with the movement are its na- tional officers, the Hon. John Milhol- land of New York city, president, and Lindley Crawford of Toronto, Canada, vice president who is also president of the Independence Orange lodges and editor of the Toronto Statesman. The secretary is the Rev. Norman Thomas of New York city and the editor of The World Tomorrow. Others among the Protestant clergy are Owen Lovejoy, Charities building, New York city, pastor of the Congregational church; the Rev. William Benjamin Spofford of St. Georges church, Epis- copal of Chicago; Rev. G. A. Lackland of Grace M. E. church. Denver, Colo. i: Rev.

HIGH COST OF TALK

Talk is cheap" observed an indi- vidual back in the time when other things, too, were cheap. But not now Talk is more expensive than it was in grandfather's day Especially is this true of congressional conversation
 Every hour a congressman or sen ator talks he eats up $360 of the peo- ple's money This represents but that portion of the cost which goes into printing the speech in the congres- sional Record, which sets the govern ment back S60 page. The talker's s salary should be included. So should the stenographers and the pages. and the doorkeeper's. and a lot of other items. Probably $500 an hour might be near what we pay for an hours congressional talk. Which wouldn't be so bad if the tallSer said something. So much of what burdens the Con- gressional Record is intended only for the building of political fences back home. and so little for the good of the country.
Arizona republican., 1920-01-18

but only for a moment. He at once got down to brass taoks.
 He began with all the intense earn estness he felt: T know I am the man you want for paying teller. I can help you. I feel embarrassed at having to say this myself, but there is no one to say it for me. Give me the position and I will try to see that you will never regret it"
 The ardor, the sincerity and the per- severance of the young man made such an impression upon the banker that he became convinced the choice would prove wise.
