SHKKS NITW r-OSITION
As a result of the European war and
the policies of the foreign stockholders and
oftleers, circumstances make It necessary
for the young man to search for position
Accordingly, he to advertising himself,
his own Interests and products, for the first
time In his career. Always heretofore It has
been a product he has advertised and put
across. He has kept himself In the back
ground Even at that, at the request of
his employers, he has written a book on his
speciality, which has been copyrighted. 8ome
of The largest and best-known food con
cerns In the country have ordered copies
of the book and distributed them to their
employes.
Now the man to placing his own brains
and ability on the market to sell them to
business men who need them, and they are
fairly clamoring to get his services. Some
of the concerns are among the best known
In America.
Ills advertisement, written by himself,
has caused considerable comment. When
It was sent In advertising men, who know
good epy when they see It, declared It the
best which had been used In any Philadel
phia newspaper In years. This to but a be
ginning, tor the man, who believes In the
slogan, "It rays to Advertise." has set
aside hundreds of dollars and will cam
paign In Philadelphia, New Torkt' Chicago
and Detroit within the coming six weeks,
until he finds the best market for his wares
himself.
MAKING A GAME FIGHT
When ft reporter went to see him at his
omce this morning, the Immediate Impres
sion given was that of a game man making
a game fight In an up-to-the-minute way.
He Is a stralght-from-the-shoulder business
man, with a keen sense of the value of ad
vertising. He has studied his own prod
ucts. He has all the points at his finger
tips and he knows how to sell them to the
best advantage.
In a. frank manner he told the whole
story of the circumstances which made a
change of position necessary. In spite of the
fact that the concern wants him "to go on
as heretofore." He showed letters from
company officials which left no doubt In
the reporter's mind as to the ability of the
man or the real regret of his former em
ployer that he Is looolng elsewhero for a
position.
letters from the president of the com
pany teem with good will and feeling of
leal sorrow that business circumstances
make It Impossible to pay what tho man
is worth "three times what we can pay
you."
When asked for permission to print the
story, the young man threw back his shoul
ders, set his square Jaw and snapped his
eyes and said, "It would be Impossible If
you mention any names. In the first place,
I would not hurt my old employers and It
would If their QMipetltors knew. In the
second, I do not PW' any jijTnpathy Jacket.
I want my position on my own merits. I
want to get It myself and hold It for face
value. I do not want It for sympatny. I
have given you that facta. If you can use
them without names, all right."
The man has a wife, socially prominent.
and three children. He ltres In an exclu
sive neighborhood and counts among his
friends some of the most Influential busi
ness men of Philadelphia wno have homes
In the finest suburbs. He says some of them
would come forward with positions It they
knew his predicament, but he does not
want ft position given In such a manner.
He saya he believes the losing of his posi
tion Is going to prove a "blessing In dis
guise." for K means he will, through ad
vertising; obtain a much better one with
greater opportunities for advancement.
The advertisement, causing so much
comment and bringing such profitable re
sults which sent ft reporter "hot foot" In
quest of the story, follows!

STATU COLLEGE. Pa., Oct. 12. Exten
sive plans for a.. State-wide reclamation of
wore than 12,00'0,000 acres of only partly
unproductive farm land in Pennsylvania
were outlined today to hundreds of farmers
who went to Snow Shoe tq Inspect the fer
tilizer experiments conducted there by the
Pennsylvania State College. Tho visiting
agriculturists were the guests of the col
lege authorities on .the occasion of the first
annual field day.
Headed by President Sparks, the college
executive, and R. L. Watts, dean of the
agricultural school, a corps of soil-tilling
experts spoke to the farmers on the encour
aging results obtained In the experiments.
Wnllo the experiments have been under
way only eighteen months the achievements
aro considered remarkable. It was an
nounced by Profossor J. W. White, under
whose supervision tho demonstration plots
are handlod, that the field experiments, to
gether with preliminary pot tests of similar
soils at the college laboratories, show be
yond n question tho possibility of reclaim.
Ing the waste land at a cost of a few dollars
to the acre. The soli In question consti
tutes almost one-half the surface of the
Stato of Pennsylvania, and Is technically
known as Dekalb soil.
According to Professor White, these ex
periments have for their object a study of
the economic methods of building up this
type of soil. He told the farmers how the
State college waa operating to give them an
object lesson In the proper handling of acid
soils, this being a condition that marks the
territory around Snow Shoe.
