REASONS BOYS

CHICAGO—Lack of a sense of
nsponsibility. unwillingness to work
hard. lack of thoroughness. false
notions about salary and promotion.
and lack of principle are the the
chief reasons why up per cent. of
ilii- hogs and girls of the l'nitv-d
States lose their first jobs. accord-
ing to a report made to the Chicago
"isolation of Commerce by A. 1).
White. statistician ot Swift and
Mr. “'hite's report noted that 90'
per cent. of the boys and girls lose
their first positions. The report also
shows that in nine cases out of ev-
ery ten. the loss of the position can
be traced to one of the the reasons
noted. -
His report continues:
"Lack of a sense of responsibility
is shown by neglect of work. fail-
ure to put the most important
things first. and the expression of a.
general '1 should worry“ attitude.
“Unwiillngness to work hard. is
shown by being late to work.
stretching the lunch hour. and steal-
ing a few minutes at the end of the
day. watching the clock. and wast-
ing the time by social conversations
hours.
"Lack of thoroughness. is indicat-
ed most frequently by unwillingness
to begin at the bottom and to go
through the drudgery of mastering
each step below going ahead.
"The real secret of promotion lies
in constantly doing more than you
are paid to do. Keep yourself un-
derpaid. As soon as you are ever.
paid you are bound to go backward.
"Lack of principle. is shown by
concealment of mistakes. untrulh-
fulncss. and the constant making of
excuses." .
