SPCED VS. QUALITY. Nutcr t'oiiililrr Kmt-Dnlnc of tor Im. IMtrtMlire Tlisn M'rlt.lltiliiv. Many persona seem to think that spoisl lu work Is a higher accomplish ment than utiality of work. If sikhsI Is of tho tint Importance, then It may bo an apology for jsor quality. If quality , Is of tho llrst itnsrtatire, then It may I lie an nMlogy for want of eist. One ! says: "1 want to lenru to wrlto fait." Another says: "I write this very hiirrlisllyi please, excuse nrasunis." ' Would such writers or workersrather , bo thought quick than accurate? Do they place the writing abovo the writ- ten? Kven a shorthand writer ought net to write faster than he can write well. Spoisl follows quality; quality never follow spent. It Is a good thing to do gtHsl work fast. Hut It Is a bid thing to do fast work badly and that Is the way It generally Is done when tho Ustslolng Is held abovo tho woll-dolng. Had work had ls'tler Ui dono so slowly that It never gets dene at all. Tlie only w ay to attain to high spoisl Is to work for something better than speed. S, S.
