How is your office work turned
out? By unhappy drudgery or
Happy efficiency? In other words
do your clerks and bookkeepers do
everything by the longest, hardest
methods? Or have you provided
them with devices and equipment
which eliminates drudgery and, by
making work more interesting and
pleasant, result in greater efhci-
ency?
Office employees come, find the
work monotonous or laborious, and
soon drift on looking for place
where they can use their heads
more than their hands, This is an
expensive system for employers.
Office workers are essentially
not of the laborer type. They are
in the office because they prefer
to work on books and records
where intelligence counts for
more than muscle. Therefore the
most efficient office will be the one
where work smacks least of labor
Does your bookkeeper add long
columns of figures mentally when
he knows a machine will do the
work faster and never make mis-
take? Does your clerk paw through
mess of papers for a bit OF In
formation when she knows visible
index will save all the time and
trouble? Does your stenographer
address five hundred statements
month on a typewriter when an
addressing machine will do it in
one-twentieth of the time, and she
knows it?
If conditions similar to these
hold in any office it will continue
to operate on the wasteful hiring
and firing" system. If your en-
ployes are not happy in their tasks
you will be decidedly unhappy in
the results produced.
| Methods or equipment current
five years ago may have sufficed
when you paid clerk sixty dol
| lars a month. But today you are
paying your office force double or
more than double the salaries of
former years. Compare the pay
rolls of several years ago with
those of today. Has the efficiency
of the office kept pace with the in
crease in salaries? If not you are
not getting value received.
| 1t isn't that employees don't want
to do more. They were probably
doing as much with their hands
for sixty dollars a month as they
can today for one hundred. To
produce more work they need
devices and equipment which re-
duce the time and labor necessary
for present duties and enable them
to take on more.
More production through better
organization is the watchword to-
day; but it is impossible of accom-
plishment with Anticipated meth
DDS. A wise man has said, "Organ-
ization is the logical placing OF
men plus proper equipment"
Aey office can be organized b.
fitting Il out with properly select
ed methods, appliances and equip
ment: after which watch 1t speed
up" in happiness aud efficiency.

"As a matter of fact. right how $3.0o0, 100000 of American cur rency, as basis for credit, would enable the banks to take care of very large proportion of necessary business which is suffering for the lack of adequate financing"
 The responsibility of diverting this vast volume of money into the proper channels of trade rests upon the shoulders of the bankers of the coun- try. declared MT. Ellsworth. The untold millions on silly ana unneces- sary luxuries while hundreds of mill lions ef dollars were invested in gilt-edged get-rich quick securities that have no security" There were countless ways advertised for separat- ing a man from his money and most of this was to be commended; but if it is logical to advertise in order to persuade folks to spend.

Canadian Miners
Come Across Line

The recent advance in wages in
the Occur d'Alene district, coupled
with the depreciation of Canadian
money as compared with United
States currency. is reported to
have had the effect Of bringing
many Canadian miners caross
the line TO work in American
mines. The premium on Ameri-
can money in Canada is said to
he from Is to 20 per cent. which
in practical operation means that
its purchasing power in Canada
is that much greater than Cana
dian money. The wages on this
side are much higher than in
Canada to begin with, and when
to the wage is added the prem
ium or the increased purchasing
power Of the American dollar, it
is evident that our Canadian
cousin is reaping a rich harvest
by earning his money on this side
of the line and spending it on the
other. 1t is stated that quite a
good many men from the mining
camps of British Columbia have
been attracted to the mines of
this district through this favor
able condition. and no doubt
many more will follow when they
understand the advantages offer
ed by the high wages and the dis
parity between the currency Of
Canada and that Of Uncle Sam.

The Amazon-Dixie and the Leslie

matter has been considered and ap-
proved by about 80 per cent of the

statement will soon be issued giving
the details of the proposed consolida-
ton which appears to be to the ad-
vantage Of all concerned. Manager
Everett has long pinned his faith to
the Leslie and expects it to prove to
be the greater mine of the two. When
the shaft is down to the 1900 level. it
is proposed to drift west to cut the
Leslie vein at an approximate dis
lance of 1900 feet and at a depth Of

indebted to the Federal to the extent
Of $4,000 or more for money advanc-

explains the placing of Mr.. Murphy in

Engineer Makes Unexpected Visit t,
the Amazon Dixie.
There is nothing like being ready
for a visit from an expert wher
spending other peoples money in the
development of mine. Among the
stockholders in the Amazon Dixie
company was a Mrs. Arthur of Cleve-
land. who died about a year ago. Her
estate. which included 10000 shares
of Amazon Dixie stock passed into
the hands of the Citizens Bank of
cleveland as trustee When an as
st sment was levied upon the stock.
the bank, with characteristic con-
Iservatism, insisted upon having a re-
port upon the property by a qualified
engineer before parting with any
more MONEY Thereupon c. B. Ar
thur, son of the deceased and one
Of the heirs of the estate. engaged
Charles f. Sturtevant, a mining en-
gineer of Salt Lake City, to visit the
mine and submit a report. Mr.. Ev-
erett. manager of the Amazon Dixie
company, was in the east when Mr..
Sturtevant arrived at the mine and
had no knowledge that the examin-
alton was to be made However. the
representative of Mr. Everett extend
ed the engineer every facility to
make his Investigations Having
completed his task. he promptly wir-
ed Mr.. Arthur to hold his stock and
a few days later sent in his formal
report. This covered the company
surface and underground I
and ore showings in con-
siderable detail, all of which received
favorable comment. The result of
Mr. Sturtevants observations and
are found in the follow
ng paragraphs from his report:
The work done to date has been
we'll done and there is no question of
ioubt the stockholders have been
