Performing Your Work as Labor of Love Only Way to Attain Success BY MARTHA LEE* i V*NE of the most important duties of life is to find work I vJ| that you are fitted for and then do it with all of your might. You have absolutely no chance for success unless you love what you do. Interest is the great driving force which pushes us toward success. ' Some form of creative or interesting work and a 'satisfactory love life are the two things necessary for a full life, and in
my opinion they run neck and neck in importance. Work for the work’s sake, and not for pay or applause. That will follow inevitably. A person who has done a piece of work that is satisfactory to himself does not care one'whit for the plaudits of the multitude. When he is not satisfied with his work, applause boosts up his faltering ego and makes him feel better. The person who makes a big success in the world loves his work and does it because he cannot help himself. He could not stop if he tried. Interest is a radiating force, and the employe who feels it seldom fails to attract the attention of the boss. Does Not Like Job Dear Martha Lee: There are hypocrites in the office where I work. We have three pets. Very much so. One of these is so scared of his job that he "soft soaps” around and licks the boss’ hand; the second "soft soaps” too, and takes a great deal of interest in the boss’ interests; the third, not having much to do, conceals a magazine in her desk drawer and when the boss isn’t looking, she reads. But by some hodk or crook these three people have so influenced the boss that/ he can not see any one but them. I give them credit for getting by with the stuff, but the man who cannot see just as good work and service in the other employes, and will not give them helD and a hearty greeting occasionally, is a dirty dog. NUMBER TWENTY-FOUR. I am very much worried about your state of mind. If these conditions exist in your office, you must

find another job, for you will never, never make good with your present attitude. But while you are looking for another place to work, why don’t you try to see what you can do with the problem at hand. Do not despise “soft soap.” Like many other ingredients, it has its uses, if properly applied. One of the strongest characteristics of the human race is the craving for approbation. And after all something good can be said about nearly everybody. If a person is crosseyed, he is hardly ever knockedj kneed too, and when you have the time, you might mention how nice and straight his knees are. Never use “soft soap” insincerely, ,but do make a point of telling people the pleasant things about themselves. Wants Another Job - Dear Miss Lee: X w’ork in an office and wanted to get a better job. In looking for a position, I was asked several times if I “step out.” and as I said no, X lost the chance of that job. The business man of today demands friendship from an office girl. Twenty per cent in this city are paying that price if they hold out. I, and several other girls wrote you along the above lines in another letter and you failed to answer. Now, Miss Lee. do you think a girl can go straight in an office? I say no, not if she wishes to hoid a Job. I have heard hundreds of girls say the same thing. ONE WHO KNOWS. My dear little girl, you have bumped up against one phase of life and thought that it was representative of all of life. It is not. There are thousands of “straight” girls working for these men. No doubt the conditions you describe exist. Early records show us that evil is not peculiar to our own day and time, but is almost as old as time itself. What distresses me is that you have not seen the other 80 per cent. Please explain your problem to | the Indianapolis Employment Bu- ! reau, or the Y. W. C. A. They will | help you find work in an office | where conditions are different from those which you have seen. Do not | let your mind be poisoned by your j experience. And do not shut your ! eyes to the beautiful. It is just as I real as ugliness.
Say It With Canned Food
With an eye to the fact that “civilized man can not live without cooks,” friends giving showers for the bride-to-be have sometimes presented her a cook book or perhaps a set of prized recipes; but a sorority in Washington, D. C., a few days ago did something just a little more practical. The members of the sorority knew that the young couple were fond of good things to eat. A kitchen shower had already provided pots, pans,-kettles and -other cooking equipment. China, silver and linen showers had gone far toward prqviding for the dining room. Almost everything was at hand, except the actual things to eat. Then a happy idea came to one girl, and she immediately announced a canned food shower. It was something new, something Practical, and it “took.” Dozens of cans of soups, vegetables, fruits, sea foods, condiments and jellies, made up the shower. To avoid duplication the bride’s friends compared notes before selecting their gift and the result was a collection of canned foods that included not only the well-known staples, but many varieties with which the ordinary cook Is none too familiar. The Beta Delphian Club gave a president’s day luncheon Thursday at the home of Mrs. Simdn Reisler, 5749 E. New York St. The house was decorated with dahlias and asters and the club colors of black and gold predominated. Mrs. Reisler, the outgoing president, and Mrs. Charles Warfel, incoming president, each gave short talks. The American Legion Auxiliary Glee Club gave several numbers and Mrs. T. N. Siersdorfer gave a reading.
TWO HOMES MADE HAPPY By Women Who Used Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound f, T have taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I think it
is the most wonderful medicine I ever tried,” is the statement made by Mrs. Goldie Shoup of St. Joseph, Illinois. She declares that after taking the Compound she is in better health than before. Mrs. J. Storms
immF wgm .Ml ' A :
of 29 Lane Street, Paterson, N. J., writes: “I can not speak too highly of your medicine and I recommend it to all my friends.” These statements were taken from two enthusiastic letters which tell of the help that has been received from using the Vegetable Compound. Both Mrs. Shoup and Mrs. Storms were in a run-down condition which caused them much unhappiness. When women are suffering from lack of strength and from weakness, their own life and th#t of their family is affected. When they feel well and strong and are able to do their housework easily, happy homes are the result. Are you on the Sunlit Road to Better Health?
