If you spend time in talking piffle or in carrying idle gossip, you are wasting words, killing time—and it is you for a small job, a small salary and a lay- off during the dull season. The man who attempts to monopolize an idea and keep it under cover loses it, be- cause we understand a thing best only when we have written it or when we have given it away. That is to say— we never understand a thing quite so well as when we have just explained it to someone else. Coming down to the work-a-day phase of this problem—u> man can afford to get along or try to «n pus- iness without the readinz habit, and 1o man can afford to surroun?! him- self with employees who do not read. The man who does not read does not care, and he is not concerned to know and understand the best in his field or in his line. If a business concern employs enough men who do not read, who do not keep in touch Wwith the ideas which concern the things they are supposed to do, it is only a matter of time until the rats will gnaw such a business down on their shoulders. In the acquisition of good habits there are the Health Habit and the Reading Habit. The man who has the Health Habit usually acquires the Reading Habit. Oswold tells us “the mind is a flower that requires strong physical stem.” The trouble is, too many men try to succeed with- out the ideas of other men and with- out the assistance of a strong physi- cal body to support a growing and expanding mind. The man who reads, investigates, thinks and looks ahead is always loyal and dependable. He is dependable because hjs mind is open to new ideas, and these ideas are new methods he intends to use in connection with his business, and When put to the test “an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of clever- ness.” The man who has not cultivated the reading habit is dangerous to the interest of good business, because he does not keep in touch with the new- est and best—with ideas that make for economy—his methods are slow and old-fashioned, his ideas are crude, uncertain, unreliable and ex- Densive. Any business concern is largely a composite of the ideas of other business concerns. Any suc- cessful man 18 in a very great degree a composite of other men. There is no such thing as knowing it all. There is no such thing as success without the ideas of others, and no man con know the efficient, practi- cal way of doing things without hav- ing first cultivated the reading habit. Through the reading habit, through “ the exchange of ideas, we have evol- ved more economic methods in every- thing from laying brick to weaving fabries of the finest. silk. = Through the reading habit men are growing rapidly to independence and are which the world has never known until the last few years. Then, the point is, if you employ men and women—in the name of all that is right and just—in the name of all that is worth while—cultivate Tamong these people the habit of read- ing, regardless of how it must be done. Place something of value in their hands, teach them- by sugges- tlon or by example. If necessary, reaching a degree of intelligence | .
