fore he will promote him to
greater things7 Not a faithful and
meticulous performance Of those
routine duties which fall to his
lot. Such virtues are common
place and merely insure that
their possessor shall stay where
he is. To rise. the subordinate
must show q power of original
ity-ths capacity to throw a new
light on a situation-a refusal to
be absolutely limited In his method
to do all that Is customary and
commonplace. His way of tack
ling his Job has got to be a new
way and not a mere repetition OF
old methods. What is needed is
the mind Of the originator-the
talent for discovery.
ORIGINALITY.
But Is not this mind q gift
which no man can create by TAX
ing forethought? Like all other
mental gifts, its foundation must
be there: but It may be so neg
lected or so developed as to be
practically under the command
Of the conscious will-power of The
man. For the secret of tnis
power is not confined to the ca
pacity for spinning out of ones
own inner consciousness some
daring plan, some absolutely
original method of which man
has never dreamed. That Is the
prerogattve of genius, and must
Of necessity be rare. For the or
dinary man originality is some
thing much more akin to the
power Of imitation: II may even
take the form Of initiating and
adapting the method of the
genius. 1t is that plastic and re-
ceptive mentality which takes in
all that is going on In the world
around.
BY taking thought a man can
make himself eagerly aware Of
all the notions which are fer
menting around him, and can
borrow from quite other bust
nesses or lines Of inquiry the
notion that he wants and apply
II with startling and sudden sue
cess to his own affairs. The in
Prospective mind let's the current
Of ideas pour into it--absorbs and
digests a hundred details of con-
ceptions. and from these and not
from a void flashes out into nc-
ton. A subordinate Of this type
cannot be kept down. He will
rise inevitably to the greatest
positions Of responsibility and
control
And It is at this very moment
Of his success that he will run
the gravest danger Of his life.
Hitherto he has been asked to be
fertile in conception-to pour out,
shall we say. a great number of
q alternative plans for dealing with
a situation. But the final choice
Of method-the ultimate RESPONSE
bility for action-has not been
his but a superior's. The re-
straint of the judgment Of q
higher authority is suddenly
lifted, and he breaks free from
all the controls of prudence.

seek for salvation from within.
Canadians are fast learning the
lesson that progress cannot be
made by scaling the hilltops of
European intrigue, but by develop
ing the vast resources that a
bountiful Providence has placed
within their grasp.
II Is to New York. not to Lon.

inequalities and industrial organi-
zations turn for the financial aid
necessary to repair the wastase of

The large loans recently raised
in the American market evidence
the economic ties that bind Can
ada to the United States. What
part the Canadian Budget-which
will be presented before this sees
the light-will play In marking
the lines Of reciprocity between
the two countries remains to be
seen.
The power to make Of Canada
and the United States an eco
nomic, as well as q geographical
unit. rests with American legis-
lators. The foundations have
been laid In Canada of detach-
ment from European politics. but
this cannot survive economic
pressure against her vital neces-
stiles, directed by legislation from
within the American geographical
unit.
II the declaration of the Amer
lean Bankers Association means
that Americans are discovering
the potential value Of Canada in
q League of American peoples.
and her value as an asset In the
scheme Of economic normality on
this continent. no time should
be lost in adjusting the view
point of the United States to the
changed conditions in Canada
The Dominion no longer stands
where It did. when Mr.. Balfour,
as chairman Of the Empire dele
nation at Washington. spoke for
al the British Empire in giving
assent to the pacts made thereat.
CANADA ALOOF.
At Genoa, Canada stood aloof
from the British Imperial Gov
ernment In the discussion OF
European political problems. thus
marking a fresh advance and a
definite departure from the
Meighen Government.
Americans are slow to grasp the
subtle changes In the relations be-
tween Canada and the empire. and
are too prone to think Of the Do
minion in terms Of British Imperi-
al policy. They cannot shake them
selves loose from the theories OF
British Imperial governmental In
stitutions to be found in text books.
II there be any virtue In a union
Of English. speaking peoples, th'
experiment should begin with an
entente between Canada and tn
United States. Here are to be found
the ingredients that coalesce most
favorably and naturally.
Those who seek wider union
of the United States with the Brit
ish Empire, as the line Of approach
between Canada and her neighbor
either take no account Of the po-
Iitical and economic differences
that separate Canada from Europe
or as seems more likely. would
subordinate the legitimate inter
ests Of Canada in vain endeavor
to maintain European influence on
the American continent.
Canadians will follow with keen
interest the development In the
sphere Of practical politics Of the
ideas Of the American Bankers
Association.

Personally I do not believe in

I would divide the habits and
qualities which make for a rapid
upward advance in two groups.
First come the nonessentials.

to come into play. Second comes
the real business power itself and
the means by which IL can be

DANGER SEEN IN
SHORT CORN CROP
SITUATION ALARMING

What is characterized as the
most alarming situation with
wnich the South his been confront
ed in years has resulted this year
from the failure of farmers to
plant sufficient corn and feed crops
to produce the food and feed nee
essarv to run their farms another
wear, saws the Commercial Appeal.
A survey of the situation his
Just been completed by DR.. E. R.
Lloyd and C. w. Watson. experts
of the local farm development
bureau. They do not mince words
in expressing the actual condition
which prevails im the south, and
especially in the Memphis terri
tory.
These gentlemen find that farm
ers have planted about one acre
of corn for every five acres devoted
to cotton. Other crop ratios are
even smaller, the number of acres
devoted to peas and similar crops
being almost negligible.
IF the boil weevil takes our
cotton, and the odds are in his
favor" the experts declare, "and
withou, hay, corn, ETC., we may
face very disastrous situation
this fall"
Mr.. Watson has just completed
a tour of Fayette County. Tenn.
He says what he found in that
county may be taken as a fair
example of the situation all over
the territory.
81 travelled II miles in Fayette
County," says Mr.. Watson, land
I counted three corn fields during
the trip. There were large fields
of cotton, but little corn could be
seen from the road. We visited
81 cotton farms in the county and
found weevils in 81 of them. That
is a bad situation, and should be
remedied. We did not find farm
er in The county who had increased
his corn acreage, but we found
that all of them had increased
their cotton acreage"
Will Not Grow Enough Feed.
From their study of the sltua-
tion the experts have reached the
conclusion that the Memphis
territory will not grow enough
feed this year to make the 1928
crop.
Farmers of the territory are
urged to plant corn and sorghum
during the next three weeks so as
to insure a feed crop. The experts
see visions of 81 corn next spring
and declare that farmers cannot
afford to take the chance of rails
ing enough boil weevil cotton to
buy their 1923 feed supply.
The promise of a high price
for cotton and cheap corn at plant
ing time has completely turned
the heads of our farmers, and we
are almost sure to find ourselves
without food and feed crops an
ether year." declare DR.. Lloyd and
Mr.. Watson. at is yet time to
plant corn and sorghum. and on
the best lands with an early ma
turin variety we have from now
until July 10. or perhaps later, to
make up the deficiency. Such va
rieties as Mexican June corn may
be planted, and every farmer
should avail himself of this oppor-
tunity Of having yet a. corn and
sorghum crop.
"The banker and supply
merchant may hesitate to furnish
a farmer next year who fails to
have corn and hay. The boil
weevil situation is alarming at
this time and we have not assur-
ace of normal crop"
