Our Industrial Community
THE INDUSTRIALIST SAYS

ing and the boosting of prices 70
meet the cost Of labor cannot go on
Indefinitely. The day of reckoning
is coming and it rests with US all
to say whether we shall meet It
squarely or permit it to take us ua-
awares.
A Few Rules For Making Good
l. Learn to like your job. No
man ever made good unless he liked
his work.
2. Be interested in everything yoa
do The thing that isn't worthy OF
intelest isn't worthy doing.
3. Remember that everyone you
meet at work has some bearing on
your success-will either help 20
push you up or pull you down
There is no such thing as standing
still.
4. Work with your head as well
as with your hands and feet.
B. Be ambitious. There is no
limit to what the ambitious person
may accomplish if he observes these
first four rules.
6. Know why you should do thing
before you do it--have a reason for
every move. Some people do things
because they're told to do them
that's their reason. This may lie
reason enough for the small man
but the big man studies causes.
I. BE able TO stamp your work
with seal of personal appro 1al.
Be oDle TO truthfulIy say, That's as
well done as L can do it today but
todays practice will help me to 90 t
better tomorrow"
s. Know that the way you do
your work affects not only you but
it affects others, just the way Others
do their work affects you.
9. Be loyal to yourself. The man
who is loyal to himself cannot be
disloyal to any living thing.
The Success Family
The father of success is work.
The mother of success is ambition.
The oldest son is common sense.
Some of the other boys are per-
severance, honesty, thoroughness,
foresight, enthusiasm and coopera-
ton.
The oldest daughter is character.
Some of her sisters are cheerful
ness, loyalty, courtesy, care, econ
omy. sincerity and harmony.
The baby is opportunity.
Get acquainted with the "old
man" and you will be able TO get
along pretty well with the rest of
the family.

..The Best Eriend'

After all, a good Job is man s
best friend. 1t keeps MIN busy and
away from mischief. It feeds.
clothes and shelters him and uis
family. 1t offers him an opportun-
ity to save and thus provide for a
rainy day.
1T is better to hold on to a good
job, to acquire the habit of industry
and thrift and to be able to look
calmly to the future than to shift
about to seek new jobs every 50
often, to squander all savings and
always live hand to mouth exist
ence.
Find a job which suits you.
which fits your qualifications and
your disposition; a job which you
like and which likes you and stick
to it faithfully, studying, learning,
advancing. A good job is your best
friend
This advice should be considered
by every worker who is forming
the habit of drifting ainlessly from
job to job.
The drifter gets nowhere.
The way to prosperity, usefulness 20
the nation and finest citizenship is
to become a valuable and perna-
nent member of the community
where you are profitably employed l.
Don't drift. Stay aboard the
good ship. Have q Steady Job"
and gets somewhere.
Honest Labor
A trouble which faces every en-
ployer today. whether on the farm
or in the factory, or in the home,
for that matter, is to secure an hon
est days labor. The cry not long
since was, IAN honest days pay for
an honest days labor!" The slogan
might now very well be turned
about with the accent on the giving
OF an honest day of service No
employer, unless it be the govern
ment, can afford to pay So day for
labor which nets him but $3.50
There is no longer any dispute
over the need for greater produc
ton. Demand is in excess of the
supply in so many of the commod
tiles required in every day life that
only greater production can restore
the balance. The destruction and
waste of the war cannot be made
good if workers of the world ''lie

Casey at the Bat.

Nothing has pleased yours truly
so much in many moons as to be
called to bat ON the Villas County
News as pinch hitter. ''Yu' see
I-yu' see, it's this way" as Harry
Lauder says, when the first of May
comes and with it the opening of
trout fishing, the editor thinks he
must report for duty on the Isaac
Walton Club. Now, that |. w.
Zone w. please) club is made up
lnclusively of many-worded gentle
men; lawyers, preachers and ed
itors. Those fellahs can describe
in poetical with apologies to- the
north-woods poet, Mr.. Hayward
language the exciting experiences
of the club among the speckled
tribe of the finny creatures that
inhabit the ripping waters of the
north woods. Whether they be-
come table acquaintance or not,
they know how to describe the
taste, too, of these palatable den
liens of the brooks. If listener
is not careful these wordy descrip-
lions will be so vivid that his an
petite will be satisfied with the
recital and he'll be robbed of the
desire to hook some for his own
plate.
Anyhow, here we are at bat
whether we will strike out or
make a hit is hard to determine.
Yu' see, it takes longer than it
does on the baseball field, because
the umpire sits on his front porch
and yu' can't tell what his de-
cision is until the breezes blow it
in.
But being at bat gives one the
sensation of being the center of
attraction and that is why it
pleases us. Gee, but it's great to
be a Casey even if we don't make
a hit.
