Possible to Haze Too
Many "Irons in Fire"

If this ever comes to the knowledge
of your young TREND in the outer
office, he probably will urge that l pay
more attention to my own business
and less to his. And, in general
way, he will be right. No one ever
lost money, time OF public esteem by
letting the other fellow run his own
works. But l like the young friend.
And he Is toting too big stick, y.
p" writes in the Kansas City Star
"How's your pep?' l asked. And he
said impatiently that his pep was all
right.
"Its gotta be all right" he said.
1--WE got too many irons in the fire
to let down."
AS long as l have known the young
friend he has had an armful Of irons
in the fire, and half the time the fire
wasn't very hot and he had to spend
his spare hours blowing it. He began
as an amateur champion in one Of the
walloping classes. Had kick in each
NIT, his little playmates said, and
might by this time have been fighting
for stakes beyond the dreams of his
youthful avarice If he had been con-
tent to become professional man.
But no. He must 60 into business
He'll get there, too," his friends
say.
Very likely he will. If his wagon
does not break down. AS long as
I've known him he has been the wheel
horse in his Office. He was the one
who did important tricks on Sundays
and holidays. when the rest Of the
force could not be found by blood
hounds. He was always willing to
stay up and get up. II any one had
a Job too much the young friend took
1t over. BY and by he began to branch
out and run businesses on the Side
OF course, he also has indigestion
and his color Is not what It should
be-
There are lots OF arguments favor
ing a modified and conservative lazi-
ness. One has better time and prob
ably lives longer. OF course, the
granite tombstone will not be so tall
as 1t would be II one had consistently
overload ed all his life.
