Josephus Daniels, publisher of
the Raleigh News and Observer,
who aecretaried for Woodrow
Wilson's navy, conducts an In
teresting column In his paper
purporting to be reproduced
from the Rhsmkatte Roaster.
The Old Codger, a philosophical
fellow of the old school type,
plays an Important role in the
column In enabling Mr. Daniels
to express his views and opin
ions.
In a recent column Cleveland
county Is referred to as "A Houdlnl
county" by Old Codger, but It would
be best, perhaps, to permit the
Rhamkatte Roaster to do its own
talking: Here goes:
"That county of Cleveland air a
sort of Houdlnl county, ain’t It?”
asked the Old Codger as he came In
this morning with a dozen fresh
eggs sent by his wife to ye editur
“She laid ’em fer you herself as evi

“Yes, that air so," said, the .Old

Democrat In Him
Its getting to be more difficult
than ever to spring a few puns
these days without taking cracks at
Mr. Hoover and his prosperity.
Often this colyum fears that some
of its staunch Republican friends
will resent our continued pickin’
on Mr Hoover. This week,however,
after telling a well known Shelby
Republican another Hoover Joke,
the W. K. Republican staged a
timely come-back.
‘Back when Mr. Hoover was a
candidate you Democrats kept say
ing that lie had always been a
Democrat and that he “must be more
or less Democratic even though he
was the Republican candidate. I
didn’t take much stock In the re
port then”, the Republican friend
sRid, "but after several weeks of
this Hoover prosperity I’m begin
ning to belteve you fellows were
right, and that Mr. Hoover must
have too much Democrat. In him.”
Just for that we’ll have to tell a
few more prosperity Jokes. Last
week, according to William Leslie's
column In the Msrganton News
Herald, a man walked In a store
there and asked for a pair of Hoover
Overalls.
"Whaddaye mean. Hoover over
alls?”, the clerk queried.
“Oh, just an ordinary pair of
overalls,” the customer replied,
“with reenforced, seat and no pock
ets.”
Last week it seems several per
sons were gathered at Mr. Kemp
Kendall’s tailor shop telling pros
perity jokes. Mr. Kendall or some
of those present declared that
Hoover, after ail, was a social fel
low. "He Is so fond of fishing him
self that. It appears as If he wants
us all to enjoy his favorite sport
and has made conditions so that
most of us have nothing to do but,
Hsh". A Republican, it is said, was
a member of the group and the
statement brought a retort from
him: “Say ,what you will about Mr:
Hoover, but I give him credit for do
ing one thing for me,that no other
president or human has ever done
— he's taught me to like cabbage in
the summer time.”
THIS DEPARTMENT, having no
goals or ambitions, and no definite
object or excuse for existing, has de
veloped into a regular clearing
house for recipes, formulas, cures,
and what-not. ' A county mother
after reading about a small child
swallowing a pin sends in a plan
which will remove the pin without
injury or ill effect. Feed the child,
stie says, sweet milk with lint cotton
in it, and shortly its presto-the
pin’s gone. She knows because she
remembers that the removal for
mula worked for a baby which had
swallowed an open safety pin.
AND NOW WE'LL quit for the
day. It wouldn't be such a task to
plug this space If the Rhamkatte
Roaster and Monroe Journal would
keep commenting upon this Hou
dini county’s freaks. And, per
chance. it would be more enjoyable
reading.

i m* picture snow* two type* of conveyor* in use in the Rouge Plant
of the Ford Motor Company.
N ENDLESS chain conveyor,
k three and a halt to four unit 3
■*> long, said to be the longest
in the world, has just been complet
ed at the Rouge Plant of the Ford
Motor Company at Dearborn, Michi
gan. On it parta of Ford tars in the
process of manufacture are traus
ported from one building to another
and completed parts ore carried ,
direct to railroad cars for shipment
to branch assembly plants.
The conveyor, which carries its ;
cargo on suspended hooks, has a,j
daily capacity for 300,000 parts 1
weighing Qj^sr 2,000.000 pounds. It j
supplants freight cars and trucks 1
which have been used for the trans
fer of many parts from one point to
another In the Ford plant.
This longest conveyor of them all
Is a development oT the Ford policy
that nothing should be done by ,
manual labor that could better be !
lone by machine
In the early days of his tnanu ,
’Picturing; career, Mr Ford devised j
he assembly line—a ronying track
ou which cars in the process of as
sembly went to tho workmen in
stead of the workmen carrying parts
to the car. The assembly line, per
fected in many ways, is now used
by automobile manufacturers gen
erally.
, The value of the conveyor in re
ducing physical labor, in savin*
time, in preserving system and in
cutting costs soon became apparent
and its use was exu oded to other
purposes about the plant. Now
there are literally miles of convey
ors of various types iii the Ford
plant. Some of them carry parts
from one building to another and
are carefully synchronized so that
the parts arrive at precisely tho
right' moment and in tho exact spot
where they are needed. Others
transport red hot ingots of steel
weighing nearly a ton each. Still
others move'^outgoing shipments.
If it were not for the conveyors,
according to officials of the Ford
Company, mass production would
not be |-o. iK|o on its present smite.

Welters of Workers
Even in the gigantic mergers
that have taken place within the
last two years there remains more
than ever the necessity for a leader,
an aggressive personality, whose
duty it is to see that basic prin
ciples are not forgotten, that the
rights and privileges of the indi
vidual Workers aud the customers
they serve are as well provided
for as in ;fbe smaller business
units.
It is gratifying to note that our
corporations are giving more and
more concern to the welfare of their
workers. Numerous benefit organ
izations have been formed, oppor
tunities offered for advancement
of education and position, hospital
service established and insurance
and retirement pensions provided.
This general humanitarian move
ment in reality is the outgrowth of
analysis, which hag disclosed the
need of improving the ■well-being
of our individual workers, realizing
at the same time that our insti
tutions will benefit.
PREPAREDNESS
IN BUSINESS
By R. S. HECHT,
American Bankers Association
‘ My observations for many years,
both as an employee and $s an ex
ecutive, have convinced me that the
reason some men and women go
ahead and others do not is that
some keep themselves- constantly
prepared to accept and fulfill larger
duties and responsibilities as they
offer, and some do not.
Grant, as we must, that there is
a certain element of,, luck in the
conditions under which opportunity
for promotion comes to different
men and women, we nevertheless
must also see that it Is each in
dividual's own state of prepared
ness which determines his ability
to seize opportunity if and when it
comes, and having seized it, to
succeed in meeting the greater de
mands which it inevitably places
upon him.
Real advancement never means
going ahead to easier tasks, but al
ways to harder ones. Opportunity
for advancement is worthless un
less in accepting it you are able to
carry with you the abilities and
qualifications that prepare you to
meet the heavier exactions that
are an inherent part ot opportunity.
It is far better to go into action
In the field of enlarged responsibil
ity prepared and qualified, rather
than that you and the institution
you work for shall be exposed to
the hazard of your having to build
up "to new responsibilities after
having assumed them.
The new spirit of all business
seeks to prepare its people in ad
vance through education for the
higher duties it holds in store for
them.
