A railroad company of Long Island has issued a booklet on courtesy for the benefit of its employes. The book contains lots of good' suggestionsr of which these are examples: “In handling the public we must all take the public as it la and not as it should be. “Those of us who come in contact with the public do much toward educating it by example of what the public should be. "We can never make the public better by imitating it. "It is only the boy amateur who flies into a rage at resistance and pounds up that which he is attempting. “Every man has ambition enough. “Every man in every position wants to mount higher, but merely wanting does not get him higher. “It is performance of the immediate Job that gets him higher. “Our colleges today are turning out a great many *civU engineers,’ but we find there is a much greater demand for ‘civil conductors.’ ”
