accomplishments from the Midwest
Refining company and they beckoned
him down to Denver to become the
head OF the legal department. In
this environment he legalized to his
hearts content IND the great joy of
the company for quite some time,
trudging daily between his happy
home and his daily toll with his din
ner pail gripped firmly in his hand.
One sultry ~forenocn early In July
1919 the board held a smoker and 10.
when the blue haze had cleared away
our old friend Robert was proclaimed
vice president in charge OF produc-
ton and requested 10 pack his doll
rags and tin dishes and Journey TO
Casper, which own was rapidly out
growing Denver and had a nice
healthy location on the banks Of the
North Platte and was busy spread
Ing all owe contiguous territory.
Robert came and has been here ever
since. He is located In a nice roomy
office with velvet carpet on the floor
and nice tall brass cuspidors standing
about, ideal receptacles for cigar
ashes.
He has lived among us long enough
to learn something about his charac-
ter and habits and not even the sew
ing circle will say anything to his
dlscredit.
He is an accomplished horseman
and rides as gracefully as the chief
Of the roundup and always owns a
good horse. He is an Expert rifle
hot n can plug the bull's-eye at
all distances without varying a hairs
breadth. lie don't play gois. He Is
automobile shy. and don't drive a
Ear and does not know the main
points OF difference between n Ford
bug and a Rolls-Royce and don't care
to know. He is a book lover and. a
student and has a fine library, where
he retires and devours literature
whenever he pleases. And that is
quite often.
SO much for his character. His
reputation is remarkably free Of dark
spots.
We have already said that M. Ell
lison is a student. He is all of that.
We know o. no mar who has greater
faculty for digging right in and learn
ing things from the ground up. When
he went into the business Of oil pro
duction and refining he applied hirt-
self. He moi only applied but lie
learned. He didn't do anything else
until he learned all there was to
learn about production and refining.
He has this knowledge safely stored
in pigeon holes In the back Of his
head; m he can reach back there
any old. time and hand you out the
dope Just as fast-as you can grab it.
Don't WORRY about that.
Having been born. as we told you
in the beginning, on the line dividing
the oil belt from tho literary belt in
Indiana. IT is not strange that Robert
Ellison is devoted 10 both these great
interests. No being able to decide
as to whicti inclination to pursue. he
pursued them both. Therefore he is
mostly an expert In producing and
refining oil and equally a student and
devotee OF literature. Early environ
ment has its influence upon the after
life and Mr.. Ellison IS a living ex-
ample.

Modem Leaders

"A TENTATIVE list was recently compiled of
u the twelve greatest living American women, :
observes the Minneapolis Journal. This was in
evitably followed by a similar list of the twelve
greatest men of this nation and this day. Thomas
A. Edison received the largest number of votes.
while among others taking high rank were Charles
W. Eliot, Henry Ford, Herbert Hoover, John j.
Pershing, EHhu Root, John D. Rockefeller, John S.
Sargent and Booth Harrington.
"Those casual attempts indicate that hero wor-
ship is not dead in this country. American lead
es may at times feel discourage d with their work,
but their influence reaches farther than they real
Dc. This in a sense is true of every person.
Women. too, have left the seculsion of the past
and arc taking on a large investment of influence.
If not heroes, they can be heroines of progress. The
doors of opportunity are open to them as never be-
fore.
Significant also is the character of the lists
presented They are typical of the modern age, an
anyone can see who will compare the modern lead
ers named with earlier heroes. If the Seventh cen
tury had been called upon to place its hero in a
hall of fame, it would undoubtedly have picked
Gregory, the church stateman. The Tenth century
would likely have selected Alfred. a great king
TO represent ii. Likewise, the Sixteenth century

Two Sides of Turnover

to create consumer demand and
consumer preference. With this de-
mand as fact all selling plans have
a chance to succeed. Without it they
fail. The only chance for salesman
ship to succeed without an existing
demand is for craftsmanship to assume
the task that belongs to advertising
the task of creating demand.
If the present efforts that are being
put into selling were amply supported
by corresponding effort to create
consumer demand through Advertis-
ing, the business conditions of this
country would be rapidly changed
into an era of great prosperity--in
spite of Old World conditions and
everything else.
The proof of this is in the fact
that right now, under these very con-
ditions, the manufacturers who are
putting proper emphasis on creating
a demand for their product, as well as
selling it, are doing big Business and
are actually getting the high turnover
that others are trying so sirenuousIy
to get through intensive selling.
