There is no point in "knocking yourself out" if you can complete a job without a lot of fuss and fury. All right, then! What is the easiest way to get any job done? The answer to that question is simple. The easiest way to get any job done is to DO it! Too often too many of us have a job to do?but all we do is hem and haw?and never get right down to doing it. Then, we fall behind . . . we get upset . . . we begin to worry . . . and then a job becomes a hundred times as hard as it was orginallv. If you have a job to do. the easiest way to get it done is to get right down to it?and do it. When you "dig in" to any iob . . . when you don't wasie nme, dui get it done as quickly as possible . . . then you have selected the easiest way of doing your work. On the other hand, the easiest job becomes tremendously difficult if we simply sit around?and don't do it. There is no harder task than to try to catch up on a group of easy jobs, each of which would have been a cinch if it had been done on time. w v> * THOMAS Tullis is the stepson of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lewis of the Clinton Mills.
