"But Pm actually dumb!" A ship -
Ping clerk who held this low opinion
nt hiraseld was told, to stare as vac-
antly as he liked atethe boxes that
left his department every day. tht
Monday he was to ' keep thinking,
"How could they be .nuit.dP to leek bet -

simplified?" On Wednesday, "Could
they be made todo something' that
they tktigt do now?" On Thursday
the shipping tolerk'sedmagination be-

thinking about all the people who han-
dle the boxes before they axe finally
chopped up for kindling. I thought
that we could just as easily :print a
teneword selting talk on the side along
with our name. Then alt the men
who .handle the boxes will know not
only what we make but how good it
is; it will' remind the wholesaler of
the reason why our ettuff is easy to
sell; and the selling talk an the box
will be a reminder, also, to the peo-
ple itt bhe stores that sell our line.
Finally the box is chopped up and the
fellow with the axe learns about us,
tea Or maybe be sense kid makes
the box into a hod/ for his cart and
thus displays the selling talk all over
town."
The shipping clerk's idea was Egeb
and perfectly sound, The $10,000
stales manager admitted that be should'
have thought of it himself. And the
shipping clerk decided that he had
been dumb by choice and not by tie

e iMposellele. Out in California, an
patient fruit grower was. visiting
ne nursery after another to secure
,000 prune trees. As though the or -
✓ itself were not staggering en -

elivered ready for planting within
aasonths. "Impossible," saki one

be started immediately, but prunes

anted almonds, which could be
arted then. He .had to cover the

cevery, every mechanical invention,
every new business method. opens a
gate to other pastures. Today more
than ever we must cultivate new ideas
if we are' to make any kind of living
and derive any real satisfaction from
our, work.
In tbe long run the best ideas come
only in that activity which arouses
our greatest enthusiasm. And com-
mon Geese tells us that the more we
!mow about a, subject the richer our
ideas will be about it. This brings
home more sharply the need to know
just what we want to do. A profes-
sor in an eastern college advises stu-
dents) to select their vocations with-
out regard to economic coneidera-
gone. One student disregarded this
advice and tried to make a living as
a woollen salesman. He was cliscoze
tented and befow par in health. One
day the professor's counsel comeback
to him and, he mentioned it to his
wife. "Well," she asked, "what would
you like to do most?" He felt almost
ashamed of his, answer—but he
thought that nothing would make him
happier than true:king reproduetions of
choice, pieces of Colonial furniture.
Today that is his occupation and he
is earning far more money than he
ever did at salessnaaship.
