HOW BUSINESS MEN

reports. -
McCready Sykes of Commerce and
Finance has made an interesting
analysis of how the average business
man used his time.
We will condense the figures as
much as possible.
First of all, we will cut out Sun
days and Saturday afternoon. This
leaves 28'7 full working days. Then
we will drop nine holidays, leavip
278 days. The two weeks', vacation
eliminates eleven more days, bring
ing us down to 267.
- The eight-hour day gives us a to
tal of 2,136 working hours out of
the 8,760 hours which the full yeai
provides. "
An eight-hour sleeping schedule
accounts for 2,920 hours, leaving 3,

third of the population. .
Of course, I know that the bram
of our . modern successful man is
working every hour of the day! That
(if true )is a reason for hope, for u
is during so-called hours of leisure
that the best thinking is done.
Too many are using their leisure
in activities that do not mean any
thing: joy-riding, jazz and dancing.
This is true: That civilization is
usually measured in terms or leisure.
There was no civilization until men
located in the valley of the Nile river.
Ancient man had to work sixteen
hours a day to scrape together
enough food to keep him alive. He
had no time to think of grand plans
for human advancement.
But the Nile overflowed its banks
with such thoughtful r-Jtularity that
it did the work of a million men, ir
rigating and fertilizing vast stretches
of land in which bounteous crops
could be grown.
Thus, for the first time In the his
tory of the human race, men had lei
sure and this leisure was used to
think out problems and to build a
civilization which is still the admira
tion of the world.
Greece was the next center of cul
tnrp. and here again the marvelous
accomplishments of this grea? people
were possible only because they had
ample leisure which they used to im
prove themselves and their fellow
men.
At my home we have a cog, and.
as dogs go, he is a prince. Whenever
he has nothing else to do he lies
down and goes to sleep. , In this re
spect he reminds one of some people,
who use their leisure to sleep or to
carouse. They are little setter than
dogs and will never amount to much
more than dogs.
A hnman being should do better
than that. Money talks today, and
so I will make my final statement
in terms of money, anc. put it this
way: Any man who will use his lei
sure time for self-improvement can
double his income in three years.

"On Saturday, . May 27, I met
vith a drove of men and women who
agreed one month ago at my sugges
tion to renovate a country grave
yard on that day. One hundred and
forty men, women, boys and girls
met, and I never saw such coopera
tive work. This was in mountain
section where I never could arouse
any kind of interest in any agricul
tural movement. I found this the
keynote to the situation.

you say. Try the wheel yourself. Then
compare it with any other car, even at two
or three times its price, and you will appre
ciate howmuch more you get for your
money in a Big-Six than you can find
anywhere else.
The price of the Big-Six was reduced at a
time' when Studebaker had unfilled orders
on hand for more than 15,000 cars. The
first seveiti months of this year were the
biggest in' Studebaker's 70 years' history.
Capacity production lowers costs and
Studebaker believes that its manufactur
ing savings should be shared with the
customer. Hence the new low price of
the Big-Six-
Rain-proof, one-piece windshield; windshield wiper; courtesy light on the driver's
side which promotes safety in passing other cars at night; tonneau lamp with long
extension cord; cowl parking lights; cowl ventilator; eight-day clock; thief-proof
transmission lock; tool compartment in the left front door; shock absorbers.
YOU can buy a Studebaker Big -Six
Touring Car today for $1650. This is
the lowest price ever asked for a car of its
sterling high quality:
Wways a matchless value, the Big-Six
stands out today more strikingly than ever
in the field of fine cars. V.
The seven-passenger Big -Six is not a
"volume" motor- car, but you get it at
a volume price because the Studebaker
organization produces and sells three sepa
rate models with only one overhead. ,
