“ W hatever is worth doing at all is
worth doing well,” is an old saving. It
certain ly is a tru th fu l one. T h at piece
of work which is but half done will re­
ceive hut half price in the m arket. I t was
not well done and com m ands a price in
keeping with its production
Instead of doing a half way job it is
wiser to expend ju st a little more tim e
and execute a splendid bit of work. As
a little more tim e on top of a half-w av
job with its half price will tu rn out a fin­
ished product at full price, it should be
easy to see th at the la tte r p art of a job —
the finished p a rt—is the part which pays
th e best. Almost anybody can sta rt a
bit of work, but few there are who can
properly finish it
T hink, too, of the p rid e one has, or
should have, in the know ledge th a t he
has tu rn ed out a fine piece of work. No
m a tte r if you are hired to work for others
you are, nevertheless, working for your­
self. If while em ployed by others you
p u t your h ea rt in to your work you are
daily im proving yourself, in addition to
A M E it IC A N
the salary you receive. At all tim es
cherish a desire to excel, to be consider­
ed a fine w orkm an and to feel th a t you
can live up to a rep u tation tor the sam e.
Feel th a t w hat you have selected for your
life work and yourself are equally hon­
o rab le— be a credit to each other, you and
your work. W ith this sort of sp irit there
is alw ays success— never failure.

P u rsu an t to the schedule for 1910-11
1 uesday evening was given for a m eet­
ing of the in d u strial in structor-, who
met in the chapel with a very satisfac­
tory representation. Previous to the
order of business the gathering was en­
tertain ed by Dr. Fulkreson, who de-
liveied an address upon ‘ M an” and his
associates an i some of the ch aracter­
istics peculi ir to his species. Our doctor’s
discourse was e n tertain in g and pleasing
as well as bewildering. His efforts were
accorded much applause.
1 he ch airm an , Mr. M. W. C.-oper,
called the m eeting to order and explain­
ed the aim s and objects of th e s e g ath er­
ings and after some discussion the rivet­
ing became very helpful and interesting,
and no doubt will prove benefic.al in
the future.
Mr. Sm ith was unan im ausly elected
secretary.
On the whole, this m ust become an
im p o rtan t factor for good results in our
school organization — O ne ok T hem .
