Now he cm put the whole outfit in his pocket. - George Eastman, president of the Eastman Kodak Co., tells in Systkm for October the story of those early days; and describes the growth of the great business of which he is the head; how it grew, and why. Inventive genius step by step developed the modern kodak; but sound business methods and far-seeing policies- gave the inventive genius a chance. Mr. Eastman found "the big idea" in his business and worked toward it. There's a big idea in every business. Whether you've found it in yours, or not, ypu'll enjoy reading Eastman's views about his big idea, and the way he worked it out. Buy SYSTEM for October YOU'LL want to read "How big should a busi ness grow?" by one of the big men in one of the world's biggest businesses, John J. Raskob, vice-president, E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. A prominent sales manager discusses "Commission, salary, bonus; which is. best?" He gives manyin stances of the advantages and disadvantages of each. A. B. Farquhar in "My 64 years of business," .tells of the time when he met Abraham Lincoln. There are other articles on finance, exporting, open ing up new trade, building good-will at home, letters that inspire and office management. You'll find something for you in many of them. On the news-stands now, October System is 25 cents; or send $3 for a year's subscription. What George Eastman says about "the big idea" Eastman began with the makingv of dry plates; he says in October System: "The idea gradually dawned on mc that what wc were doing was not merely mak ing dry plates, but wc were, starting out to make photography an everyday affair. "Two distinct policies thus presented themselves. One was to consider myself a manufacturer of dry plates, and perfect them as an end in itself. The other was to take the whole art of photography, and starting with dry plates, set "out to make the camera as easy a recorder as the pencil, "Such a choice comes to nearly everyone. .... One may make a thing and make it" well, and consider his business as pri marily the makingof things. Oronc may set upanidcalandconsidcrthosethings which he makes only as steps toward the ideal. "The first method ... is a journey with nothing but money as a destination. I adopted the second because,with an ideal, the journey's end is never reached; there is always the experiment, the hazard of going beyond where anyone else has gone. It holds as great a measure of fascination as did the search for the poles " Read the whole story in SYSTEM for October Mr. Eastman discusses his important policies: (i)The firm holding of an ideal; (2) The guarantee -at any cost of what ever is sold; (3) Keeping out of avoidable debt, for capital purposes; (4) Control the alternative, that is, have a second way of doing everything; (5) Make the highest grade of product before attempt ing a lower; (6) Avoid over-organization. gssusa v r2fie Magazine of Business PuMUhsd br A.W. 8HAW COMPANY, Chicuo, New Yo.k, London.
