TALENT AND APPLICATION.
' i It' is a truth that faithfulness brings
its own reward. Such a condition exists in
the mechanical skill displayed by Harry
Joe in 'the garment now being made by
him." Entering the tailor shop in Mar.,
1907,7rom Mrs. Newcomb's building (the
small boys' home), he began as every
other small boy is obliged to do, by light
ing fires and sweeping in his turn, until
he graduated from the buttonhole class,
thn entered the ranks of the trousers
makers. He soon showed a proficiency in
the mastering of detail and in one year
was able to make a very creditable gar
ment. He timidly and under protest took
up coat making and today he has dis
tanced all his fellow apprentices in skill
and conception of detail of similar
length of service.
All this because he is a student of what
he does, and what he does not do,- but
hopes to be able to do much-at-some
fu'ture"time, as a cutter of trousers: -i Hel
is al 'skilled draftsman and at the lead
ing school of design in the United States,
the J rib. J. Mitchel Co. of New York City,
his work-would be accepted as an - evi
dence of being capable of entering as a
cutter -andia tailor so far as he has gone
iro his 'trade!'-
