Obtaining A Raise
Or Advanci ment
'CHE advantages of analyzing
A yourself beforehand are never
greater than when ab< nt to inter
view your employer in the hope of
obtaining a raise or advancement.
Know exactly' why you think you
should have a better job or more
money, and before you step into
your employer’s office have all the
points you want to make mar
shalled in their logical order.
“What are you prepared to do
that is better than you are doing
now? What assets do you possess
that make you capable of handling
a more responsible job, or that
make you worth more money to me
than 1 am paying you?” These are
questions that are certain to be in
your employer’s mind. It is up to
you to have the answers.
It all boils down to selling your
employer on you, just as you had
to do when you originally got the
job. You must make him realize the
benefit and profit to him that you
can offer in return for a salary
increase.
If you have figured out before
hand just what you can deliver, how
you can measure up to the more
exacting requirements you will be
expected to meet, you will have the
self-confidence that banishes nerv
ousness and hesitation. And that,
self-confidence may be the most
telling argument in your favor, for
self-confidence based on ability is a
quality that every employer values
highly in an employee.

A LTHOUGH pineapple juice is
ordinarily chilled in the tin be
fore serving, many persons suffer
ing with intestinal disorders, find
tho juice more to their liking if it
is warmed, or slightly heated, espe
cially when drunk at breakfast time.
The chilled juice is much preferred
as an eye opener, or an appetizer,
but an excellent hot beverage for
winter evenings is mulled pineapple
juice. Here is the recipe: Tie an
inch of stick cinnamon; 3 whole
cloves; !4 teaspoon ground allspice;
H teaspoon grated nutmeg in a
small piece ot cheesecloth. Add to
one quart of Hawaiian pineapple
juice and bring to boiling point.
Add a little salt, and serve with

The CCC young man that hap
pened to be present at Governor
lalmadge s Cartersville speech
on July 17th, whom it is thought
that Talmadge mistook for an
engineer, furnished a lot of
aughter to those present, when
he interrupted the Governor. The
Governor s reply to the young
man was that if you don’t watch
out I 11 have you engineering the
i ear end of mule before we get
through with it.’’ The Governor
apparently could not think at the
moment ot anything worse than
plowing a mule. The “wool hat
l boys, he so much delights in
' referring to in his speeches are
I the ones he referred to when be
I struck back at the young CCC
boy. They are the lifesavers of
the country, yet Talmadge deep
down in his soul feels toward
them as expressed to this young
I: man.
