Men Who Do Things Are Not Those
Who Have Their Nose Constantly
on Grindstone,
A certain vice president of a great
railroad once remarked that he would
much rather have in his employ a train
dispatcher who had a cigar in his
mouth and his feet cocked up om
the desk than one who kept his nose
too closely to the grindstone. As he
had come up through the ranks the
vice president's opinion was seasoned
with accurate knowledge and experi-
ence. His theory was that the dis
patcher with his feet cocked up had
his road in better shape than the grind-
stone exponent, and could figure out
the moves on the transportation chess-
board better,
An official of probably the largest
corporation in the world was reported
to the head of the corporation by a
Inarge stockholder as continually loaf-
ing and looking out of his office win
low, » The president assured the stock-
holder that the man was not loafing
but thinking, and that his plans had
saved in one year more than his salary
for twenty.
You can go through the office of the
National City bank of New York, the
largest bank ig America, and find men
sitting at glass-topped desks on which
there is not a scrap of paper. Yet the
daily business of this bank would keep
8 dozen country banks busy to
pacity.
You ean pick at random one hundred
of the highest executives of the coun
ting at desks absolutely bare.

of shears—although the use of
word “palr” is correct when one
members that each blade Is an
English “scear,” or cutter—the inven
tor must have been a practical me
chanie. He was, probably,
earliest of Inventors, because
the pictures on the walls of the mes
taba, or tomb, of Ti, at ancient Mem-
wool from sheep and goats. The de-
ceased Ti! must have been a person
of much importance in the Fifth dy-
nasty (2500 B, C.), although he mod-
estly described himself as “Keeper of
the Pyramids.”
Therefore shears were in familiar
use 4500 years ago and their general
form has not been improved upon.
This is due to the true enginee
principle behind the shears.
The invention would appear to have
sprung fell-fledged Into the world, like
Minerva from the brain of Jupiter.
Imagination is required to picture the
admiration with which the first user
of a pair of shears contemplated the
perfection of the service rendered. Al-
though he probably did not recognize
the fact, the efficiency of the shears Is
