Salary Increase Comes
With Promotion

CHICAGO, Sept. 2S.-After a
careful survey of the entire labor
situation extending from office boy
to president, indications are that
positions showing increases in sal
aries require experienced help.
Consulting the president of one
of our largest industries, the writ
err inquired regarding the rapid
success of a certain young man who
had become general manager, and
who a few years ago was but office
boy: his answer was, Brown start
ed as office boy, the lowest salaried
position in our office, he was am
bilious and managed to purchase a
ty e'vriter on small monthly pay
ments and after three weeks of
practice at home he was promoted
to bill clerk, which position gave
him knowledge of the selling price
of all merchandise. His next ad-
vance was that of typist, which
taught him the numerous forms of
letter-writing and enabled him to
hold stenographic position, CIV

rotary, bringing him into contact
with all business details and quail
fled him for the general managers

The same opportunity awaits ev-
cry young man and woman. Educa-
ton or age have nothing to do with
operating so simple a machine as
the type writer. We are informed
that a great piece of benevolent
work is being carried on by large

He shrugged his shoulders. poor

she said, incoherently. Il re-
