The Dominant Personality

It is a tragic and pitiful spectacle to watch
an inferior woman drag down big man
but we have all seen it done a thousand times
We have seen an ambitious, and gifted man
who married a clod of woman lose pep
and energy, and slow down in his speed. We
have seen brilliant and scintillating men grow
as dull as the stupid women they are married
to. LIE have seen generous men married to
mean, little women, develop into small soul
ed tightwads themselves. Indeed, If a man
continues to be after marriage what he was
before marriage, 1t Is because he has mar
ried in his own class.
The wife's influence dominates all of
mans social relations. It is even strong
enough to separate him from the mother who
bore him, for If his wife does not like his
mother, she makes it so unpleasant for him
to see her that he follows the line of least
resistance, and Is alienated from her. 1t is
almost invariably the wife's family who fill
up a mans home, and it is her friends who
are perpetually about. Practically every wom-
an regards with suspicion everybody her hus-
band knew before he married her, and she
makes them feel that they have scant well
come in hr home.
The reverse of this is also true, and a
woman's influence for good over her husband
is as potent as it is for evil. Women build
up, as we'll as pull down. We have all seen
ambitions women push commonplace men
with no initiative Of their own, into success.
We have seen clever women polish rough
diamonds into gems. We have seen women
turn Doors into elegant men of the world.
We have seen cultivated women educate il
literate men. We have seen women broaden,
gentle, and humanize, narrow, hard, cold
men,
And we have wondered why women influ-
ence men so much more than men influence
women. Perhaps the reason is that women,
as a rule, are too vain ever to accept cr1t1-
cism in the right spirit, no matter how kindly
it is meant, or how helpful it might be. Es-
pecia1ly does a woman resent criticism from
her husband, because her egotism demands
that he shall think her perfect. 1t is in
tolerable for her to realize that he desires
to improve her. Likewise, the average wom-
an is indolent and lazy. he does not want
to make the exertion Of sloughing off her
old skin and putting on new. So she sticks
to her old ways, her old ideals, and the old
friends who thought her good enough as she
was.
Perhaps women influence men more than
men do women because man exhausts his
energy on his days work, and has none left
to expend on improving his wife. He'd rath-
err be the clay, than the potter, If he has to
fight for the potter job.
But nobody knows why the wife influences
the husband more than the husband influ-
ences the wife. She just does.

DEPENDABILITY WINS
By H. Addington Bruce

BILITY is, of course, an important fac
~ tor in the winning OF business sue
cess. But just as important-often
turning out to be much more important-is
dependability.
I have in mind the typical case Of two &C
quaintances, men Of about the same age, be-
ginning business life under about the same
conditions, but today very differently cir
cumstanced in point of worldly fortune.
One holds an important executive position
in a company with which he has been con-
nected for years, is highly paid, and Is man
Of influence in his community. The other
has no particular community standing, earns
comparatively little, and has made numer-
Gus shifts in employment.
Yet those who know the two are agreed
that the latter is essentially the ADLER. But
he Is, and always has been, far less depend
able than the former. And this, more than
anything else, explains their differing for
tunes
Ten years ago, when they were fellow
workers, they were, without knowing it,
rival candidates to fill an impending vacan-
cy. 1t was post for which both Of them
were we'll fitted by experience, and naturally
the first impulse Of the heads of the firm was
to award the promotion to the more brilliant
man.
But" one of them reminded his asso-
ciates, chow much dependence, after all, can
we place in him?
"He is irregular in the time of his arrival
at the office, he recklessly makes promises
which he knows he cannot carry out, we have
continually to prod him to get his work
done according to schedule.
'We don't have to do that with this other
man. He Is slower thinker, he is not so
likely to astonish us with bright ideas.
Granted. But we can count on his doing ex-
actly what he says he will do, he is on the
job steadily, and he does not keep US worry
ing by carelessness in performance.
'I am inclined to think that he is about
the most dependable man in the place. And
my best Judgment is that the promotion
ought to go to him.
Deliberations much like this are continual
ly taking place in business offices. And
when it becomes question of choosing be-
tween ability and dependability, dependa-
bility nearly always gains the choice.
Your bright man who is not dependable
is always more or less of risk. Again and
again this consideration is the deciding
factor in determining an employer to with
hold omotion-also in determining whom
he shall first let go in a period of business
stress.
Young men starting in business will do
we'll to remember this always. Let them
strive ever to prove that they are depend
able.
If, in addition to being dependable, they
are uncommonly able, SO much the brighter
their prospects. But never let them trust
to ability alone.
Other success-winning qualities they also
must possess. And of these dependability is

Little Sympathy For Old Bachelors

Says Miss Virginia Polhill, editor Of the

But little feminine sympathy is wasted
on old bachelors these days. The young ones
absorb it ALL"
But who said that bachelors are crying

Diamond Strike

What is called the worst crisis in the his
tory of the Witwatersrand gold region in
Transvaal, South Africa, popularity known as
The Rand, developed when the workers in
that mine field walked out after voting, 10
to 1, for strike. The personal intervention
of Premier Jan G. Shuts failed to halt the
walkout.
In view Of the possibility of trouble police
from all parts of the country have been
drafted into the mine fields, and the nation
al defense forces are being held in reserve.
One Of the gravest features of the strike
is that in the event that it continues the
companies plan to enlist 900 native la
borers. AS % per cent of the white popula-
ton of South Africa lives in The Rand and
a. the employment of black mine workers
would mean the removal of the color ban
and the eventual elimination of the white
laborers from the gold fields, the population
is seriously concerned over the future
The strike resulted from the announce
ment of cut in wages. The companies i'm
sist that reduction is made necessary by
the disappearance Of the premium on gold.

decreased even a little bit, but that
by way of good measure, Missionary

Lucky Hour has done everything
asked Of him in training this spring,
and Is sure to be one of the choices
for the classic that his owner may
elect to start him IN. The character
of his recent trials lend the impress
sion that the Preakness Is the goal,
because Of the weight concessions he
will be entitled to. With Norwich In
Kentucky, as his owner has stated
that he will he, Lucky Hours task in
the Preakness would be very much
easier. He wound up last season the
top Of that large division of class Il

right to after his gallant second in

Of either race would reduce the cost

and leave the prospect even brighter
for his winning either the Belmont or
the Champion Stakes later, for II
would still be possible for him to
dodge the winner of the other and

DR.. McCully hasn't said that he
wouldn't take the two colts at the
