HOW PROFITS ARE MADE.

There is a well known business or
ganization which has for its motto,
"He profits most who serves best"
One does not need necessarily to be-
long to a club to realize the deep truth
conveyed by this pointed epigram.
Your business is something more
than merely an organization for profit.
Look ng at a store, shop factory or
other business enterprise from the
broad standpoint, we see that its chief
aim is service to the community or to
the nation.
The purpose Of the management OF
such an enterprise should primarily be
that of improving service-of making
a better cheaper article-of providing
more convenient means of distribution
of serving better in whatever field it
may be.
But humanitarian motives are not
the only reasons for such a policy.
He profits most who serves best. Just
as honesty is the best business policy,
so the most profitable business enter
prise is the one which gives the best
service. SO there is a business reason
as well as a moral or ethical one for
endeavoring to serve the public more
efficiently and more satisfactorily.
The company which makes the best
car for the price. sells the most cars
The manufacturer who makes the best
soap. or cracker, or washing machine
at the lowest price-that is gives the
best value and service-sells more
goods and makes more profit
Whether or not you happen to be a
Rotarian, If you want to prosper in
business keep in mind the Rotarar
motto: "He profits most who serves
best" "

ENORMOUS sum AVAILABLE FOR BETTERMENT

Washington, May 16.-Approximately
$4,000 900 is available every working
day during the present year for expen-
diture upon highways of the United
States, according to a statement today
by Professor C. j. Tilden. director Of
the highway and highway transport

The actual sum available from state

per cent greater than the total cost Of
the Panama Canal, according to fig
ures obtained from the bureau of pub
lie records
This point was made by Professor TIL
den in stressing the need for more
courses in highway construction and
economics in colleges and universities.
To spend this amount wisely, he said,
would require the services of more than
10, 900 trained highway engineers. AT
this time, universities are graduating
only about 1000 civil engineers annn.

turn to highway construction. The sup
