s) Do You Fit Your Job? Character Analyst Kibby Will Help You Decide To Give Evening World Readers Benefit of His Experience. In Series of Articles Will Analyze Each Vocation, Giv- ing Necessary Qualifications of Person Who Should Follow It, and One Who Is Unsuited to It. By John Cutting. Copyright, 1921, by the Prem Publishing Co, (The New York Rveuiug Wort.) Eighty per cent. of American business men do not find their work.” William Judson Kibby. HIS startling remark was made to me yesterday by Mr. Kibby, a character analyst of thirteen years’ experience in analyzing the ohar- acter of executives in scores of industrial and commercial corpora- ions in a dozen of the big cities of the United States. When a big concern pontemplates a reorganization of its, personnel, invariably the first move to call in Kibby. Some of Mr. Kibby's clients are the United States ubber Compamy, @he Irving National Bank, the Guaranty Trust Company, ‘oss & Brown, the Diamond Match Company, the General Electric Com- ms, paint manufacturers; J. Walter Thompson Com- Defense ny, Sherwin & W , advertising agents, and the ng Island City, r, Kitbby is going to tell Bvening forid readers whether or not they United States Gas Plant at ) fitted for the vocations they are ow following. Beginning next Mon- y, there will be one article each eek giving the necessary qualifica- ons for a score of the commonest tions. Mr. Kibby will analyze ach vocation, He will also prepare chart which should prove invalu- le to the readers in determining hether they are capable of develop- the maximum of efficiency in hat vocation. The writer had heard so much of he uncanny analyses which Mr Kibby had made of men totally un- jown to him, and which proved 90 cent, correct, according to friends of the men analyzed and the admis- sions of the men who were put through the test, that after he had been talking to Mr. Kitbby for ten minutes, he himself asked for an analysis. ‘The character analyst quietly took irom his pocket three crayons—black, ‘olue and red. He began checking on }@ printed chart, containing eight classifications and seventy-five sub- divisions, He did not ask me a single . question, but in fifteen minutes hand- €d ‘back the chart and explained the blue should be cultivated, and blac! was O. K. So far as the writer ha been able to analyze himself, Mr. Kibby’s chart was 99 per cent. cor- rect. For the benefit of Evening World readers who may be interested in knowing what qualifications are con- sidered in making application for a job with a big concern, Mr, Kibby’s confidential chart is hereby repro- duced. Study it closely and find your own weak points. There are four gtades for checking the element of strength—or lack of it—high, strong, medium and small. Below is repro- duced Mr, Kibby’s confidential chart which the industrial analyst uses. This chart has been responsible tor diverting bank clerks to steel mill and bookkeepers to landscape far deners. Here is the chart, with the general classifications and the score: of sub-divisions in the order of thei significance: Personal Appearance. Carriage, cleanliness, dress, portly, stout, medium, thin. Temperament. Adaptability, cheerfulness, aggres- aive, ee oeativor conscientious, critical, directness, enthusiasm or interes nervousness, excitability or temper, good listener, impulsive, deliberate, ¢adustrious, loyalty, optimism, pains- ‘taking, paticnce, persistent.

Some of the principles that Mr. Kibby uses in making his analyses are startling, and yet, if space would permit in this article, the reader would wonder why such simple observations of the analyst and dozens of true-to- form rules of psychology have proved almost infallible in the thousands of men whom Mr. Kibby has “charted.” After giving thoughtful considera- tion to Mr. Kibby’s future vocational analysis (of course you MUST be absolutely honest with yourself), it should prove an easy task to deter- mine what trade or profession you would best be fitted for, If you ure already employed, the vocational chart of vital questions will soon con- vince you that you are in the right job—or that you are a square peg tying to fit in a round hole.

I know if I went to the expense of hiring a taxicab I would have waited till the guests began to arrive and pretended to have forgotten my card of admission. Coming nicely dressed in a taxicab that way one might have slipped into the church in the confusion. “Miss Hickett did not leave scene after being put out of church?” asked Mr. Jarr. “She did not,” said Mrs. Jarr “She clung to the railings outside with a lot of the other women, Out the police pried their hands loose and didn't seem to care how much they hurt any one—brutes!"" “But what has that to do with Miss Hickett's brother?

AL THE TELEPHONE.—Whcn the receiver goes into the hands of lovely woman you get a free sample of eternity. She gives a longer performance with one ring than Barnum did with three. A dame can consume thirty-five minutes ordering a can of salmon. Social conversations leave on the half-hour, making connections with friends, acquaintances, hussies and points West. The evening sessions with pay-station Romeos is the modern reason why girls don’t leave home, When a wren starts looking up telephone num- bers there are no blanks, Any number will do. Central isn’t lying when she says the line is busy. It’s only some debutante telling a pal what she had on at the dance. And {t takes her fifty-five minutes to describe two square yards of chiffon, a pair of sik stockings and some satin pumps. A telephone number !s a valuable asset, but when a jane’s on the line just try and get it! And it’s the woman that pays and pays and pays when she starts on a pay-station call.

There is oniy one right way to reduce, and that is to use a diet that is reducing, but is nour- ishing at the same time, and also to remember that lack of ambition, too much sleep and no physical exercise must enter into the consideration.
