Its lines were somewhat like those
of the earlier 'leather" chair, but the
upper part Of the back, instead of being
upholstered. had a number Of turned
spindles. Not only were the front legs
and front stretcher turned, but also
the other stretchers and the back legs as
well. Likewise the backposts (the two
uprights supporting the back) were

How Automatic Machinery Affects
Skilled Labor

So much has been said of the won.
ders performed by automatic machinery
that at least one disadvantage has been
largely overlooked. The machine has
replaced the man, for today the skilled
far as the man at the machine is con
the engineering board that lays out the
work. The mechanic who formerly was
paid for his skill in making some
thing" no longer finds demand for his
talents. lie does not even have to
know what the machine does. All that
Is required Of him today is to see tina.
whatever Is being fed into the machine
is being fed into 1t regularly and that
whatever Is being thrown out as com
pleted article or process is being re-
moved automatically. He pulls lever
one way and the machine performs some
wonderful operations; he pulls the same
lever another way and the machine does
something else. The automatic machine
has destroyed the need for apprentices.
The son Of the man who has spent years
learning how to make a part Of an auto
mobile accurately can do all his father
ever did by moving lever.
The son OF skilled mechanic does
the work OF his father without knowing
how simply by performing certain phys.
ical movements over and over, without
taking or having to take any interest in
his work. Generally he is not interested
in it. He earns more than his skilled
mechanic father ever did and this at an
age when judgment has not as yet de-
yeloped to any extent. The danger in
automatic machinery lies in the fact
that the operator cannot grow mentally
through his work. Unless his tendencies
during his leisure moments can be
turned to mental growth his occupation
Is a menace.

Selling Immediate and Future Benefits

Selling Immediate and Future Benefits
Every salesman Of life insurance
knows that there Is a certain type Of
person more concerned with the imme.
dlate prospect Of the rate than with the
ultimate benefits of the insurance.
Again. there are some men to whom
the idea Of profits at some period in the
future does not look nearly 30 attractive
as q policy which will mature or be
paid up quickly.
With the varied forms OF policies on
the market today the agent at best has
hard time fishing around to find out
just what premium and benefit com.
bination has the greatest appeal for his
prospect. and he will often lose out to n
competitor who Is no better able to fiji
the mans needs than he is, simply
because he did not happen to offer him
Just the combination that appealed.
To know whether to talk present or
future to a man. see IL his head !s
noticeably longer or shorter than aver
age. Pay no attention to width. but
do observe height. II he is short
headed. keep yonr talk in terms of the
present or near future. If he is low.
headed az we'll as short headed, rive
him the cheapest premium possible. hut
IL he Is high headed and short headed,
talk to him first Of policies which
mature quickly or are paid up quickly.
II he Is long headed, talk to him Of
the profits and advantages In those
ferns Of policies which mature in the
distant future. Talk to the short head
of the dangers OF sudden death; to the
long head on the wisdom OF looking out
for his old age. Granting the two men
are equally able to carry the polices
offered to them, you will find that this
works.
