THE gentleman who comes into
= your office, when he knows you
are busy, and sits down for friend
ly little chat must be got rid of.
II he is intelligent, you can get
rid of him without hurting his feelings.
If he is stupid, it will be necessary
to hurt his feelings.
But get rid of him you must,
whethefsh his feelings are hurt or not
Efficiency experts could figure, no
doubt, that many thousands of work
ing hours go to waste every year be-
cause busy people are too good ma
tured to invite idlers to get out of
their offices.
Most Of the precautions taken by the
due to their haughtiness, but to their
knowledge of the value of time.
If every small business man could
surround himself with inner and outer
guards, to keep pests from bothering
him, he might soon cease to be small
business man, and become big one.
In most offices the clerical force
and the general employees are not to
be seen during business hours. 1t re-
quires very intrusive person to get

But the boss or the manager has
always some friend he hates to Of
fend who will drop in during bust
ness hours, and consume several dol
lars worth of time without blush.
The victim of these gentlemen would
far rather they would come to his
house unlimited, and consume his
food unlimited, than to come unlimited
to his Office, and consume his most
valuable commodity which is time

Something to Think About

herself? The body which encases self
is all that can be seen, yet who doubts
that self, the image of Goas1~ists?
Who questions the truthfulness Of
the Bible, the origin of man. or the
omnipotence of Him who created the
heaven and the earth?
Is 1t for the atom of dust to deny;
$50 God created man In His own
image, in the image Of God created
He him; male and female created He
them"
Let us not go out Of our way to seek
the dark places, whose mysteries must
forever battle human understanding.
There is more JOY in the sunshine,
more happiness in useful effort, more
pleasure in the acceptance of exist
ence as it is, more delight in self-ab-
negation and In doing good to others,
than in the painstaking avoidance of
childish faith,
1t is not for US to become crazed
about frisky monkeys, nor for us to
try to make monkeys of ourselves.
But 1t Is for us to work. to think
good thoughts, to put unbelief and
doubt far behind us and make our
selves more worthy of the infinite love,
the only anchor which will hold secure
In this life and In the life to come.

DARWINIAN THEORY

Kentucky, famed for its blue grass, its
blooded horses, beautiful women and
chivalrous men. is deep in the study
of its involved perplexities.
All the way from school houses
to the Kentucky senate, the ques-
ton of mans relationship with monkey
Is being discussed with fervor.
The world is pricking up its ears,
arching its eyebrows and looking
askance upon the creatures, who, &C
cording to the Scriptures, were created
In Gods image.
Just how will all this controversy
benefit you and me?

women, elevate our minds to high

for usefulness?
Power gravitates to those who can
use 1t, not to the wavering nor the

faith. who believe as child and ac-

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
..pIN.MoNEy.

nURING the Sixteenth and
- Seventeenth centuries pins
were so extremely expensive
that only the wealthy could af-
ford them. BY a curious law,
the manufacturers of pins were
permitted to sell them on only
two days each year-January l
and 2-and when those days
came around the women whose
husbands could afford the ex-
penditure secured "pin-money"
from them for their purchases.
While savages have, for ages,
used thorns and splinters for
the purpose of Joining bits of
hide or making garments of
leaves, pins-as we know them
today-did not come into use
until the early part of the Four
teenth century. They were in
PRODUCED into England in 1910
but 1t was not until 1924 that
an American named Might in
vented a machine for manufac-
turing pins very rapidly, and
now more than 1900 tons of
iron and brass are annually con-
verified into pins In the United
States alone, condition which
renders entirely obsolete the
original meaning of the phrase
''pin money" which, however,
still persists as synonym for
