The $25,000 a year man is more likely to be earning his salary than the $2500 a year man. For he not only earns his own wages, but helps all under him to | earn theirs. If he were not there, getting that $25,000 a year, you would not be earning your $2500, because there | would be no profits to pay you with. Cut out the $25,000 a year man, and you’ll have to cut the $10,000 man to $5000, the $5000 a year man | to $2500, and the $2500 a year man would be pounding the sidewalk loois- ing for a job. There’s just one reason why he gets $25,000 a year; it is because he brings in $50,000 a year or so the man that pays him. The 25,000 a year man does not leave his pick suspended in the air when the 6 o’clock whistle blows and go home. Whatever he is at he finishes. He is not afraid to accept re- sponsibilities. He does not want to be guaranteed an income. He does not belong to any organi- zation the purpose of which is to in- sure him a certain wage and certain working conditions. He does not talk much about his rights. He may not be a good looker, a good dresser, a good mixer, a good ‘ talker, or even a good man, but he gets things done. The trouble with you, that you are all these nice things you fall down on the job. Don’t envy the $25,000 a year man. His women folks are more ant to be fools and keep his nose to th» grindstone than is the. sign painter’s wife or the bricklayer’s. Because they forget they are in the Working Class and try to shine among the Endowed Idle. Hence all manner of woe. Sometimes the $25,000 a year man is a fool, sometimes he’s tyrannical, conceited and disagreeable. But he makes good, he doesn’t stay long. Every - concern keeps a lot of $5 a day men working that are not earning their wages and ought to be fired. No concern keeps a $25,000 a year man on when he begins to soldier. Except he be a nephew or snmethino lire that. And then he is not called an asset, but a liability. 1here are more $25,000 a year op- enings teday than there are $2500 openings. Cheer up. The $25,000 a year is all earned Archibald, is but or 1604 Eo a fosdesfocfocdorporocde dosfrefesi by the man from his chin up. It’s the brain.
