AND 48TH PL. WHERE THE SEARCH CEASES Demand for the FInt-Rate Man, So Marked In Commerce and Indut- try, Not Extended to Polities. In recent years our periodical liter- rature has devoted much space to discussions of problems of efficiency, writes Meredith Nicholson In the Atlantic. We have heard repeatedly of the demand, not for two-thousand-dollar men, but for ten and twenty and flfty-thousand-dollar men In the great Industries. The efficiency engineer has sprung into being; In my own city severnl hundred employees'of an automobile company are organized Into a class of which a professor of psychology Is the leader, the purpose being the promotion of Individual and corporate efficiency.

The first-rate man is in demand, as a buyer, a salesman, a foreman, a manager. One of the largest corporations in America pays its employees bonuses apportioned on a basis of their value us displayed from month to month. The minutest economies are a matter of daily study in every manufacturing and commercial house; the hunt for the first-rate man is unceasing. Executive ability, a special genius for buying and selling, need never go unrecognized. Recently a New York bank spent months searching for a bondseller, and finally chose au obscure young man from a western town who fell by chance under the eye of a 'scout' sent out to look for talent.

But this eager search for the first-rate mnn, so marked in commerce and industry, only rarely touches our politics. It is only in politics that the second-rate man finds the broadest field for the exercise of his talents. fluburn Park, Grcsham Braincrd and Ibe South The night schools will open Mon-i diiy, September 25. airs.

Curious liberties have been taken by the scholars of one country with the history of another, the distortion being, of course, due in many instances to "policy." A striking example is found in a Russian text-book edited by a great Russian scholar, IloviUski: "Louis XVI was good and peaceful king. After a long and fnmoua reign, in which he waa most happy In his choice of minister of finance, he died quietly in Paris, beloved by all his people. His death was cfiused by a hemorrhage. "The successor of Louis XVI was his son, Louis XVII.

During his reign the brave, royal army, commanded by Gen. Napoleon Bonaparte, captured the largest part of the European continent for the French crown. But the faithless Napoleon showed tendencies toward misusing his power, and was suspected of harboring dishonest designs against the legitimate ruler. With the help of his majesty the emperor and autocrat of all the Russians, his plans were frustrated, and he was deprived of all his possessions, honors and rights to a pension. He was then exiled to the island of St.

Helena, where he died." Mamilton fcark anbficlb House Xcxt Wcilncsilny the priinuvios wil tn licld IIIK! cvcryoiiu should txcrcis his or her privilege find vole.

The ordinary shingle roof is tremendous fire hazard which is not fully appreciated by most persons. After a shingle has been exposed to the weather for a time It becomes so inflammable that it will burn as quickly as paper, and they arc so light that nn ordinary wind will carry these burn- Ing brands from one building to nr other some distance away.

This was learly demonstrated at the conflagra- on which took place a short time ago Paris, Ky. Of the total number of ,440 buildings destroyed, over l.QOO ad shingle roofs. Perhaps no more onvlncing example of the danger in iie use of untreated wooden shingles a closely built up community could found than that furnished by this atcst conflagration. Practically the nly residence In the path of the flames which was but little damaged was oofed with incombustible material. In he reconstruction of the city the use wooden shingles without fire-retardant treatment should be absolutely prohibited.
