YES, the motor truck is a necessity, and
the progressive business man of to
day has already purchased motor
trucks or is figuring on them for the very
near future.
But it is not a question of any motor
truck. It is a question of reasonable first
cost, economy of upkeep and operation, and
efficiency in keeping everlastingly at work.
Above all, the motor truck owner de
mands effective, continuous and reasonable
after-sale service. The only assurance of
this lies in purchasing from a responsible

C. M. SCHWAB ON WIVES
The Right Kind Useful; the Nagging
Kind Drags on Success
-In his Itttte'-Twok "Succeeding With
What You Have" (Century Company),
Charles M. Schwab tells something
about his own success and the inner
workings of the Bethlehem Steel
plant. Wo quote an interesting
point on domestic success. Says Mr.
Schwab on Page GO:
"I can never express the wonderful
help Mrs. Schwab has been to me
from the very start. Not long ago u
group of men offered me a large sum,
$t>0,000,000.1 believe, for half of Beth
lehem. 1 told my wife about it that
evening. 'This is a big sum,' 1 said.
'Half of what I have is yours. What
shall we do? If we sell, your share,
invested at 5 per cent, will bring you
an income of over SIOO,OOO a month
for the rest of your life.' 'We wouldn't
sell for five times that,' my wife said.
'What would I do with the money?
And what would you do without your
work'!'
"I have seen more men fail in busi
ness through (he attitude taken by
their wives in their younger clays
than from all the viees put together.
A nagging wife, or one who is not in
sympathy with a man's work, who
expects impossible, things of him, and
is incapable of taking a general in
telligent interest in his work, is one of
the worst handicaps lie could have.
If a man works with his mind clogged
by domestic troubles ho is of no use
to himself, his employer, or the world
at large."
