A lessen For Young Mcs nayaf- . The following from the Spartanburg Journal shows what a yoiui^ nmti with energy may accomplish find we produce it with the hope that it will inspire some of our hoys to greater things: Young man, you say you haven't been given a fair chance in life to make something of yourself-? Look at William K Gorey, who has just been elected president of the U. M. Steel Corporation at a salary that would make a man rich in ai year. Do you think he had a ' ?'pull?" He did. Fifteen years ago Gorey was pushing a wheelbarrow in the yards of one of Carnegie's mills at IJrnddoek. And this was his "pull" He wheeled so much more iron in a day tbun the men at his elbow ! that ho was soon made foroiimn ! over them. Tn other words, Corey wax n't afraid to ''do $2 worth oi work for n dollar," n fear that be sets many young men today. When Corey became foreman it , was noticed that ho got twice as much work out of his men an the other foreman. Ho didn't swear | fit his men. They never grumbled jit their boss. They respected , him. Carnegie began promoting Corey, And Corey worked hard. He had only a fair common school education. Ho studied at night. He took up a course in a correspondence school. In time ho !>?>camp 0% expert chemist. Hy and by he was an authority on armor plate. Tie knew moie of armor plate than any one in the mills. { There was only one thing for Cargenie to d?x He made Corey superintendent of that department Corey increased the output. That's j all. Only much more iron than viic iiiiu at Ins elbow."
