DEPENDABILITY
What greater tribute can be paid a man than to
gav he is dependable, for this means that he is reli
able, trustworthy; that confidence may lie placed in
him. That kind of a man is a valuable asset to any
community, business or organization.
We never worry about such a man. We know
that he will do what is expected of him; that he will
be at the right place doing the right thing at the
right time; we need never fear that he will violate a
confidence.
If a man be dependable he is honest, painstak
ing, thorough, thoughtful and strong.
Dean Stanley once said: “Give us a character on
which we can thoroughly depend and it is wonderful
how many . . . brilliant qualities we can safely and
gladly dispense with."
A man might be brilliant, clever, smart and yet
not be dependable.
A dependable man therefore is the kind that is
needed in this strenuous age. Never were depend
able men so necessary as now when everything is
done oil such a large scale and so much depends j
on man power which after all creates, governs and
