If no timn U a prophet In hi. own country oelther li the y)iniiter, with whom we piay a lini, generally conceded to have money making tralU or cnpubllltlee above our own. That wai the caae In !ockport when It became known that Johnny Itankob bud written to the owner of an Ohio city atreet rail- may company for a Job a secretary, estimating hla value at a figure that icemed almurd to thone with whom he hud been rained. , Hut John KuNkob got the Job and at his own price. The man who hired him wai I'lerre S. Du Punt, then own er of the traction system In Lorain, Ohio. Lockport resident! thought thut the youth was lucky In landing auch plum. Before he left Lxport young Itask- ob had been making $30 a mouth. He bad asked for a raise to $10 a week, ttlieo this wai refused hlra be decided that his tulenta were not appreciated. He made op bis mind to aeek field! In whlcn be would receive better rewards. 80 be wrote to a friend, a young draughtsman. Sterling II. Bunnell by name, asking him If there was any opening for him In Lorain. He re ceived a reply thnt I'lerre S. Da Pont was seeking the right sort of a young man to act as his secretary and aid In the street railway business. When John Raskob told bis friends that be had applied for the Job and bad asked for a salary of $1,000 a year they thought at first that he was fooling. When they were convinced by the earnest young man that be actually bad asked for such pay they were certain that he wouldn't get a reply even. But they were wrong and John Itaskob was right lie Invariably bus beea on financial matters ever since. The boy who surprised his Lock port companions In the matter of get ting such a big salary was born In that up state New York city In 1S79. His father, a solid and substantial citizen, was In the tobacco business. John was an average student in school His quick smile and pleasant maimer made him popular. He early showed a liking for business and an aptitude for figures. Ills father died when John was In high school. Mrs, Raskob was left with four children, The future chairman of the finance committee of General Motors didn't try to complete his education by work lng In hli spare time, lie decided that the sooner he got a real Job the bet ter. He realized that he needed spe cial equipment to get ahead In the business world. He left high school and took a com merclal course In stenography and bookkeeping. He buckled dowa to his studies and soon qualified to tuke dictation and to keep a set of books. He got a Job at $3 a week. That was considered fair wages for a beginner In Lockport in those days. After six months he asked for an In crease to $7.50 a week. His employer agreed to give It to him, but it was some months before the raise ma teriallzed. Following two years' work during which he became an expert stenographer, an excellent typist and a first class bookkeeper, he asked for $10 a week. His employer didn't think the youngster was worth such wages to him. Thut was the turning point in John Raskoh's life. He wrote to Pierre Du Pont and went to work for him In 1000. The next year he represented hla employer us treasurer of a street car line In Dallas, Texas. His sal ary had been raised to 1,000 a year, proving to skeptical Lockport friends that he hadn't thought too well of his earning capacity after all. He went to Wilmington, Del., In 100'J, as assistant treasurer of the K. I. Du Pont de Nemours company. Later he becume treasurer and then vice president of the big chemical concern. Mr. Du Pont Joined him In buying Uenerul Motors Block and John Raskob soon became the directing n nauclal genius of. that vast corpora tlon and one of the country's outstand lng business leaders.

" There are other millions, uomlnully literate, who yet read so little and with such pain, that to them books are as an Instrument npon which they have not learned to play. Prof. Charles H. Judd. of the Uni versity of Chicago, emphasized this In speaking on adult ediicntion at the convocation of the University of the State of New York: "Until pco plo are ready to cultivate reading as they would cultivate the ability to piny a musical Instrument or to play golf, they will never be able to use the best sources of Information with readiness and full advantage." Reading aloud Is recognized as an art, but reading to one's own mind is also an art, which can be devel oped, as other arts, by Incessant practice. If be were to give as mucti attention to the cultivation of this skill as the musician gives to his art, the artisan with leisure and a li brary would be richer than the man whose profession or vocation leaves hi in no time to read swiftly and thoughtfully In tne literature which Is "the organ of the race mind" and whose chief function Is the fusion of nations and the "enfranchisement of the soul" of the individual.
