The! garment-making industry f immense importance to the prosperity of the Metropolis. It affords employment to thousands of persons who would have difficulty getting started in other lines. It | tures immense quantities of goods to be sold elsewhere and it draws! trade to New York from all parts of the country. This industry in former years was scattered through many outside communities, but gradually it was attracted to and established in New York. If employers find that they can no longer operate hore because of the instability of labor, they will certainly move their plants to other cities where better conditions prevail. ‘I'here will be left behind empty buildings, workers without jobs, families without money and neighborhood stores without patronage, Public opinion of New York is always on the side of the oppressed and the downtrodden. It gives aympathy to the poor and the hard- working in their attempts’ to obtain better wages, better hours, better conditions. But when a strike has been won, when agreements have been signed, New York has no more sympathy to give, no more help to lend to foolish extremists who repudiate all that has been gained for them because some things do not meet with their radical demands. ——_ 7 ____—— AGAIN THE PILLAGERS. 00 pretends that the $81,000,000 net earnings of the N United States Steel Corporation in the past three months Tepresent profits made from exporte end munitions of war eold to fighting Europe.

E all come to see that we must develop a code of ethics of salesmanship that will be in- flexible as to broad application but flexible as to individual. This is the rock on which every profession is built if it endures and enjoys the re- spect and esteem of mankind, and to this basio principle I earnestly and wholeheartedly direct your best thoughts and your best endeavor. one might say trades have customs, and professions have ethics, I have indicated to you what I con- ceived to be the necessary foundation stones upon which a structure must be erected, if it 1s to endure. On this substructure of fair dealing may be built a fair tower of honest effort. Let the man who wants to be ethical in the best sense hold his self-respect and force by his bearing proper con- sideration of the interests he repre- sents. Let him extend respect to his Which {# Because He Doth Not WANT To!

I was on my way to a city in Northern Indiana, and I bh intended making’ @ small purcha: aud ~as recom- ded to a certain store. As wo approached the town I eaw a big bill- board with the name of this store on it and the legend, “Tho great under- selling store.” Now that legend les- sened my idea of the value of my friend’s recommendation and it oc- curred to me that @ store that had ta advertise itself purely on the ground that it could undersell ita competitorr was lacking something tn force, or, to make a direct application, something in_ethics. I have emphasized, I hope, to suMcient extent the three cardinal principles of a true code of ethics as I seo them, that és to say, loyalty, direct speech and honesty growing out of true vision. By a proper exer- cise of these principles I feel that we any of the force which is a necessary element in practical results. In other words, while we must justify our existence as salesmen, we must have proper vision; 60 conducting ourselves competitors, both as good form and as good business, Let him never make the mistake of cheapening his goods, his firm or himeelf.

The aimplest and clearest explana- tion of the atmospheric condition was rhaps that given vy Prof. William Piimpnreys, the meteorologist of the United States Weather Bureau at Washington. As the result of a series of experiments, Prof. Humphreys demonstrated that the generation of an electrical disturbance was due to the convection or vertical transfer- ence of hot, humid air into an upper and therefore cooler region, Hence during the early forenoon of @ thun- der storm Gay oe bumidity is pretty ertain to eh. .
