Jim's wife needed a tin can, so
she Communicated the one Jim keeps
his oil in. Its contents she pour
ed into jug and placed same in the
cellar. Comes Jim into the story:
where's my oil?
'In the cellar, in a jug. I needed
the can"
Jim finds the jug on the preserve
shelf and loads his oil tank. A
few blocks down the street his mo-
torcycle stops dead and refuses to
respond to all the kinds we are told
to use by the instruction books. Jim
pushes her back home and removes
the cylinders. Nice Taffy. At the
same time Jim's wife is spelling a
nice cake mixture by pouring oil
into it. That's no place to put oil
in molasses jug.

MOST MEN LABELED

EXECUTIVES who make a serious
- study of choosing men for posi-
tions have little difficulty in doing So
Most men are labeled. Whether
they know 1t or not, their ability will
usually come out in. a short converse
ton about the Job they have applied
for.
Inability shows itself in the same
way.
The applicant may make every eff
fort to prove that he can hold job,
but If he can't hold II an able chooser
Of men will find 1T out before he is
hired
The competent man may be shy, he
may lack the instinct Of putting his
best foot forward; lie may be poor
self-booster, awkward in expression.
Yet the label is there, and the execu-
tive who has studied men can read Il.
In the same way the competent
business man can tell the nature Of
the man he is about TO do business
with He may judge by trick of
facial expression. by careless word
or a hasty opinion, by tendency to
boast. or a refusal to boast, but he
can tell.
Mistakes happen, of course. But
they do not happen so often when the
direct method of Judging men is en-
ployed, MS when the method is In
direct.
Many men of only average ability
car answer missionaries. Few can
talk with shrewd prospective EN-
pluyrr without disclosing to very
large degree their uuulness for the
job.
Don't be afraid TO wear your label
II Is there anyway. II will be more
than you can manage to conceal IT,
If 1t is a poor label, you can make
II better. But you cannot make It bet
ter by any conversational flights that
are not backed up by solid ability
II may be that the American people
like to he humbugged, but the Amer
can employer cannot afford to bC
humbugged, and he seldom is.
II he Is bad Judge of men, he Is
able TO hire a good Judge, and he
abldes by that judges decisions.
You must stand or fall by the labe
you wear. All you can do about II |:
to make that label as good as pos
sible, and by hard work to exchange
Il for better one just as soon as pos
sible.
And the very best label is the wa!
you do your work. not the way tina
