.‘No. MY boy. the world will not stop
revolving when wo die. We may be
very useful, but no one of us is indiz'
l pensable,“ said Mayor Becker, of
llutl‘alo, N. 11, to a reporter who found
him in a contemplative mode the other
day. “For twentyyears I worked on
the theory that I was the hub in my
business wheel. and that. if the hub
dropped out the spokes and rim would
go to pieces. Early and late I was at
the desk, the holidays were not marked
on my calendar, and my entire life was
compassed by the lines of trade. I
have grown wiser since then. One
after another prominent business man
has passed away, and I hare seen the
enterprises of which they were head
and mute: successfully conducted by
. other heads. This has led me to the
; conclusion that the details of a well
i established business can be intrusted
in a considerable degree to intelligent
‘ and faithful employes. Nowadays. with
more business on hand than at any przs
. \‘ious period in my life. I find plenty oi
' time for social life and an occasional
. opportunity to go a-fishmg."
