When The Incentive Is There It must be confessed that jobs are none too plentiful in this region, nor in any other part of the civilized world, for that matter. However, it is quite apparent that the acquisi tion of a job is not quite as impossible as ijome of our job hunters are inclined to picture it. One is inclined tt> this conclusion by a little in cident which took place right here in Ashland dur ing the week. . A ’young ujan who bad found Ins way. to the police court by reason of too much imbibing of “ canned-heat,’1 was given the information that he would have to either get a job before six o ’clock that night or spend the next ten days in jail. He got the job. It is quite probable that this young man had been walking the streets for,lo these many days, looking for a job, and not finding it for the prin cipal reason that he did not*’Want the job had enough. The ten-days jail' sentence stariAg him in the face provided the necessary incentive that en abled him to land the job. , The noted Dwight L. Moody used to say that “ while it may be tr u e /a s the scriptures' say, that the wicked flee when nox man pursues; they us ually make better time when there is somebody chasing them.” It is more than likely that many a fellow who is bewailing the assumed fact that there is no job for Mm, would Boon be,connected with a job pro vided there was in store for him a worse calamity if he failed to land the job. - One of the chief troubles with many of ¿lie, Job hunters is the fact that thfey «re too .'jUrttcuiar what kind of work they do. They are inclined to look upon some jobs as beneath them, when as a matter of fact there is no type of honest toil which is belitting if the work needs to be done and the worker enters into it in the proper spirit. z Oftimes the first job one can get represents an open road to a good and worthwhile job. This is the way most of the worthwhile jobs are secured—by more than making good on the job one is holding. Faithfulness in the little things is as direct a road to rulerehip in the business world, which is the world of jobs, as it is in the spiritual world as pointed out in the parable of the. talents. * Man’s Helplessness Five minutes is but a short period as time is recorded but in St. Louis it was sufficient to change several sections of that city to a mass of twisted wreckage in the ruins of which were hundreds of injured and many dead. Thursday afternoon thebe sections were well ordered streets bordered by rows of residences when the tornado hit. .When it abat ed the work of years was wiped out and human mis ery and suffering was left in its whlfe. The buildings erected by man were as toys crushed by the wrath of the wind—the beautiful residences of the well-to-do shared the fate of the hovels inhabited by the colored people. The Des troyer played no favorites, but merely dipjied down and swept away a spot in the city. That the de vastated portion wa8.not larger was due only.t<^ the prank of the storm which after dipping for this in terval, suddenly lifted and spent its force elsewhere. Such occurrences set one to wondering what would be the result if the full force of one of these terrible visitations of Nature was to sweep directly through the congested parts of some'of our great cities. Every year many tornadoes sweep over the country, but usually they hit the open country* where their destruction is comparatively small. Occasion ally they strike a portion of some city when the havoc is terrible as in this instance. There is little or nothing, that man can do to provide against this danger as his strongest build ing« arg as matchwood once the terrible force of the tornado hits them. It is impossible to predict these storms and their course is so irregular that no warn ing can be given in advance. Provision can be made against floods and structures can even bo built to withstand ordinary earthquake shocks, but the force o f the tornado is so great that, the wotks of man are puny in comparison. All that can be done is to rush aid to the vic tim s'and rebuild the shattered homes and other buildings and hope that, like lightning, the fury of the wind wiU not strike in the same place twice. / C H AP COU ir ^ M o s E ^ SCM SORBD .. _ tk o *o -e ’gkm eff-_ , T h e “t burglary profession’ in Portland cannot be very p ro fit able at present.
