After you have chosen your vacation land and made your reservations for those “two weeks away with pay,” you immedi- ately begin to enjoy your vacation. What do we mean? Why, your an- ticipation of the good times to come bouys-up your spirits and brightens your disposition.; Then,' the happy days arrive and.you depart to breathe the ozone of the seashore, or the bracing mountain air.

Until he was sixteen years old John Fritz worked on his father’s farm, picking up a knowledge of everything that came his way., Then he decided that the steam engine was going to be the great factor in the building up of America and made up his mind that he was going to take part in that development. So he set himself to learn the smith and ma- chinist trade. For eight years he worked as an apprentice in a-machinist shop near his: home, picking up all the odds. and ends of the trade and a good deal more besides. After. he learned all there was to be found here he cast about for a new field of know- ledge. So he put the little money he had saved up during the years: of his apprenticeship into his pocket and went to Norristown and asked for work at the Norristown Works, He was started as machi helper. found: ont that Fritz knew about the machinists trade and, with that John Fritz I'Jetune a full fledged machin- ist. Immediately he began the master- ing of the iron trade, woking by day and studying by night. One morning, about a year aftér he had entered the works, he was. called to the office. The shrewd old: Quaker who owned the works told the young man how he had been. watching him as he worked day and night trying to. master: the iron business. He now wanted him to. take the position of night superintendent. Six months. later, Fritz was in charge of the whole works. ! When he left Norristown it was to take a position at Lancaster, where he could .gain _practical experience in rail making. He became. possess- ed of the idea that England was making too many of the rails. used on American railroads. He master- ed the business of making rails and then sought another position where he could learn all about blast furn- aces. With this his education in the fundamentals of the iron business was completed, after thirteen years of incessant work. It was in 1854 that he began to put his knowledge to use. David Reeves had made him superintedent of the Cambria Iron Works, = -and Fritz at once began to cast about to improve things. He reconstructed the entire rolling plant from ideas he had picked up in his experience, His work gained him a wide reputa.. tion as ap organizer and manager of men and in 1860 he was: selected -to build the plant of the Bethlehem Iron; Company: Here it was that he worked out the -probleni of the Bes- semer process. Later he was selec- ted by the government'to build the first armor plate plant in America. In 1902 the captains of industry celebrated John Fritzs eightieth birthday with a banquet at the Wal- dorf-Astoria in New York, The ban- quet also signalized the successful founding of the John Fritz gold medal for achievement in industrial sciences to be awarded annually by a committee of the American Society of Civil Engincers.

Most manufaeturers appreciate the importance of good will.on the part of the dealer, and count it one of their greatest assets. But many of them need to consider more thor- oughly in what good will consists. The final test of good will is the sa!abi]ity of the product—the con- sumer demand. The dealer may be willing to concede the high standing and prestige of the manufacturer. He acknowledges freely that it is one of the foremost concerns in the business, that it is backed by men who have a solid reputation in their industry, and that its relations with the ‘dealer are business-like and’ -pleasant.
