FROM OFFICE BOY 10
PRESIDENT OF RAILWAY.

From office boy to president Of the
Louisville & Nashville Railway is the
journey made by While L. Mapother.
He reached the high Office when but
48 years OF age. When he took his
first employment. he lacked social
prestige and financial influence to aid
him. He had carved out his own
career. He learned to depend on him
self, learned that promotion came to
those who mastered new duties, who
did each task promptly and well. He
followed that line OF action and he
ID winner.
Albert H.. Smith, chairman Of the
board of the New York Central Lines,
began his wor kas Office boy in Cleye-
land. He had neither friends nor in
fluence to help. He had to help him
self. His predecessor as president was
W. C. Brown, who started as tele-
graph operator in Iowa. The railway
world has many men who fought out
their way to the top. Robert e. Nc
Carly, general manager Of the Penn
sylvania at pittsburgh, was employed
by that company first as night opera
tor at the little town Of Bowerstown,
and Thomas B. Hamilton, general su-
perintendent of the Pennsylvania at
Chicago, did his first railroad work
carrying a chain for surveyors at
Denison. Each system has its men
who began early, worked hard,
learned how, stuck to the task and
climbed the ladder.
The same is true in other lines Of
business, where men are content to
remain with good employers, contri-
butte their success of the business and
win prominence by good work and
right results. There are many who
seek promotion through pull land in
fluence. 1t fails In most cases, as it
should. There are those who love to
prate about decreased opportunities
in these days fbig business In the
world. Their claims are false There
are scores of places waiting to be
filled, waiting for the man who knows
how, who is willing and able to meet
the demands. Men promote themselves
by good service and that opens the
doors to every man who is competent
and willing to pay the price of pro-
motion. What these men did others
are doing, others may do Opportuni-
ties never were better or more numer-
out. The great untitled demand is for
talent that can manage and direct.
Business is hunting for brains all the
time-Ohio State Journal.
