Many People Have Said They Found It Cooler in This Store Than at Home
Responsibilities Gravitate
Toward Persons Who
Know Most
Young people seem to be unconscious of
this actuality.
Yet it is true thatnn all places where many
are employed there are vacancies constantly
occurring which require the continuous thinking
of chiefs of sections to make choice of the best
qualified and most worthy of promotion.
Sometimes careless employes by their
unsteadiness and foolishness innocently lose a
good chance and do not understand why and
wherefore.
