WANT GOOD MEN? ADVERTISE
Arbuckle Gees to Ad Columns of Newspaper When in Need of Able Assistants. Jehn Arbuckle, whose name is fai nfiliar to the wholesale grocery trade, believes in advertising. Consequently, when he found he needed a first, sec-’ ond and third assistant at Salaries of SIO,OOO, $5,000 and $2,500 a year respectively, he spread knowledge of
his need through the advertising columns of New York newspapers. “If you want to get good men to work for you you’ve got to pay money and let them know how much they’re going to get. That’s why I put In the salaries,” said Mr. Arbuckle, who evidently knows human nature. To announce “what the job will pay” at the start Is a good preliminary to negotiations.
hr. Arbuckle has set a good example tp men of big business Interests, says the Chicago Record-Herald. When in need of a man, advertise. In Germany I cities advertise for mayors, lor a German mayor is employed on his merits; in the British colonies many public employes are-sought through newspaper advertisements. Perhaps not every business man could set forth his requirements and the possibilities of his service so humorously and unconventionally, as ‘ Mr. Arbuckle. hut he could say enough to cause ambitious and able men to respond to his advertisemeht. The “help wanted” columns have great possibilities “higher up.”
