EVERYDAY COUNSELOR What a joy it is to find a man or woman who is willing to work and is more interested in his job and his employer than five o’clock, pay day and Saturdays off. You employers who read this will know what I am talking about. One of these came to see me the other day and requested my assistance in securing em ployment. I am recommending her most highly. In addition to these qualities she has no home ties to divide her mind. He who secures her services is going to be fortunate. Another came for some coun seling help. I was willing to go all out with him, too, because he is the same kind—industrious, thrifty, hard-working, cheerful. Such are hard to find. I recall the early business ex perience of a successful business friend of mine. He was the same kind of person. When he graduat ed from college he took a job as school teacher at $40 a month. He then decided that he would like to go into the business world and commenced to search for a business in which he would like to enter. He selected a certain business establishment, secured an interview with the president, and asked for employment. He told the president that he admir ed him personally as well as wishing to become a part of his firm. The president of the company was impressed with his forth rightness, told him he would like to have him, but the only job open at that time was that of shipping clerk at $40 a month. At that time the salary of a school teacher and a shipping clerk was about on the same level. The lot of the school teach er has improved since. My friend replied that h e would take the job, as that was all he was making on his school teaching job, if he would be given a chance at the next job which opened at a higher brack et. While he was working as a shipping clerk he noticed that the lights were often burning in the office at night. He wont in, introduced himself to the comp- YOU’VE DONE IT . . . WE WISH YOU GREAT SUCCESS. CAROLINA SERVICE STATION troller, an elderly man, and of fered to help him at night on his own time without compensation. This continued for some months. Shortly thereafter the comptrol ler resigned because of age and took retirement. My friend went to the president and asked to be considered for the position. The president objected that this was a big job for which he wasn’t prepared. Then my friend told him what he had been doing with his nights during the past several months, after work hours, while the ma jority of his associates had been following their own devices. He got the job and has continued to climb the ladder of success since. He succeeded because he wasn't looking at the hours, hut at the job and the future. Sometimes I am actually frightened when I see how many people have so little thought for the future, being only interested in the present. Their philosophy is, What’s in it for me? What are the hours? What is the pay? This selfish, greedy attitude on the part of so many workers is discouraging enterprising busi nessmen from investing further capital or enlarging their busi ness. There is no royal road to suc cess in any field except by way of hard wort, long hours, and even suffering. Mark that down, especially if you are one of those whs worts with one eye on the clock Sho the other on the pay check. f— Patronize The Chronicle Advertisers Let no one slight yon because you are a youth, but set the believers an example of speech, behaviour, love, faith, and purity. (I Timothy 4:12. MOFFATT.) The cadets in a military academy put on an impressive precis ion drill for review by several important visitors. Afterward one of them asked the superintnedent: "In exhibition drills like this, do you include your newer men or only those who have had the advantage of a year or more of training?” "We use them all every time,” was the reply. "Then how do you achieve such perfection?” the visitor per sisted. The suerintendent replied, "Those who are good make those who are poor do better.” In the life of the world, Christians have the duty to help others fo accept Christ and live in His spirit. When we least expect it, somebody is watcing us and being influenced by our example. As Christians, let us heed the admonition: "Walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called.” When we follow Christ’s ex ample, we may lead others closer to Him. PRATER We thamk Thee, Father, for the responsibilities as well as for the privileges of following Jesus. Use our lives to inspire godliness in others. In the Redeemer’s name we humbly pray. Amen. THOUGHT FOB THE DAY We need to be careful how we live, for we may be the only Bible some person will ever read. Seth Hannon, Writer (New Jersey) Cross Hfl Nows MRS.
