and all phases of the problem and not conflict with
the existing legal set-un.
"I am reminded of the story about the way uni-

-HP BOTH GOOD MEN
Recently I was talking with thro mechanics. One
of teem has not worked luilf the time tn more than
a year. The other said he hau not lost n day in ten-
| years, except for illness or bad west ter.
"There"—one might exclaim—"you see an illustra-
tion of the pnexplainable workings of fate. One man
is favored, Another not.'' y
Hometimes It does look as if fate plays a beads-
one-wins, tails-anoUier-kKes kind of game. f.
However, there is a definite reason for the differ-
ence in the states of those two men. There is a log-
ical reason why one is busy all the time, and the
other not busy half the tims.l r1, 11 <
And before I give the reason, I want to say that
both men are industrious, both are sober and reliable;
both are good workmen. And. strange as It. mav
seem, the one who saiq he had worked but half time,
is Uir better workman af the two. ■ „ .,;z ..
But here is the distinction between those man:
One is a fast worker; he will do nearly twice as much
work in a day as the other. He knows how (
mentally he is always a Jump ahead of What he is
doing physically; he makes every move count; when
he lays down a tool, he remembers where he put it:
when he next needs it; he does not have to hunt for
it. In him there is no lost motion. Too, he is an eco-
nomist. He knows how to work up material to the
best advantage; he does repair work at the least
exnense. When he 18 on a Job, the man hiring him
instead of wondering why he has done so little. He
is worth much more to an employer than the other
man. That is why he Is kept busy.
In the days when there Is more labor than work,
and moqey is tight, employers are more than ever
"choosey7’. They naturally hire the oerson who will
give them the most for their money.
The employer is not buying time; he is buying re-
sults. If it takes one man four days to paint a roof,
and another does the same job in three days, the
law of economics will determine which of those men
will-get the work. - - . a
There are workmen who deliberately kill time, be-
cause they beheve that makes more work for men.
Perhaps it does; but it does not make more work
for them personally; lor they are the ones to be
eliminated if better men are to be had.
Fur years there has bean plenty of work for-every-
body; almost anyone could sell his labor. But now,
competition is becoming more or less keen in labor
—as in radios, automobiles, and all other commod-
ities. Labor is a commodity; the workman has some-
thing to sell—his labor And he will find poor or
good demand for It, depending on how poor or how
good he is as a workman.
"B,ut,” says one man. “I know I turn out just as
good and just as-quick work as my friend Bfiton. I
have worked right alongside of him many a time. He
has a job always; but sometimes I do and sometimes
I don't. Now how do you figure that?”
That brings out another angle of the question of
getting a job: ‘fine man is a better salesman than
another. One man can always sell himself. Another
cannot.

ANOTHER CENSUS TO GET UNDER WAY
Before the 1990 nations! census commences in
April, Texas eitie* and counties will have complet-
ed. the annual scholastic census. On the basis of
this enumeration of children of school age depends
the amount of State school funds which are allotted
to school superintendents.
It is of utmost importance that every Denton
„ Coigity family make sure that every member of the
faxrity of school age is listed by the enumerator,
ani in case someone is overlooked, a word to any I
eciJool teaehe* *p other school official will rocUfy
