A TRUST MAGNATE’S MAXIMS.
[Recently uttered by Charles M. Schwab,
president of the United States Steel cor-

Brains are wanted, not money.
The man with exceptional ability is
the man for whom everybody is seek-
ing.
I think it is possible that so great a
combination might be formed that no
man could be found with the adminis-
trative ability, the brains to manage
it. But that will not happen for many
years.
The great captains of industry are
not looking for money. There is plenty
of that, What they want is brains—
\ specialized brains; brains that are
apable of taking hold and carrying
ut the plans for which they furnish
capital. ;
reat. industrial nAamhnatisns like
the United States Steel corporation
doubtless decrease the chances of the
iron and steel maker with a limited
amount of capital te ms ke his way, but
they give to the men with brains the
greatest opportunity this world has
ever known.

Fresh Air Children.
Mr. J. Hassler Dietrich of New York
has been through here arranging to
have children placed in good homes

York Tribune Fresh Air Fund.
This is a work of charity that ought
to be heartily encouraged by all who
are in position to do so. To be able
to give happiness, and new and higher
life aims to a child in distressing need
of both is not without its reward,even
in thie life. ;
Two things we wish to impress in
the minds of our readers. One is that
the children are respectable but poor
parentage. They do not come from
the slums They are not from the
well-to-do classes, but from that class
that earnestly endeavor to make an
honorable living. The other is, that
the children come clean, and free
from contagious diseases, The latter
is an important consideration, but we
assure our readers that every one sent
out is subjected te a thorough and
rigid medical examination before be<
ing allowed to *‘go to the conntry.”

to make the t
joyment to the

it.
Several who had children last year,
ask us to call for the same ones again
this year and arrange that they can
keep them for four or six instead of
two weeks. This would seem to indi
cate that these children are a pleasure
instead of a care,
