WHKItK will the defense wu'W '

That Is u question which cannot

I * no better posl-
Rufus T. Strohm lion than he ia
today.
It's as true today as It was 100
years ago, that the man who works
to get ahead is the man who Is
improving himself. He is looking tar
beyond the present Job, and In moat
instances he Is studying some type
of Instruction that will lift him
out of a routine Job into a position
of (reater responsibility
Routine Jobs In factories and
manufacturing plants, ot course, will
pay more daring the next Ave years,
and they are vital to the nation's
defense plana. However, there Is
dsnger tor the Indlvidusl, In that he
may be content to get along with
little thought of advancement. It
means that he will have to drive
tovard the goal even when CV;
future appears dark and uncertain,
out some men—those who will
finish In the key Jobs —will keep
plugging uw':y In fair weather and
