What is a specialist?.
Ths good specialist is the man
with a broad geneyal knowledge
who uses his attainments t© de-
velop a single lifte of endeavor.
The generalist never goes far
enough to- settle himself on a
chosen occupation ©r branch of
J occupation. He diffuses his edu-
cational foundation with the in-
evitable result of taking more
from the world thaa he gives in
:retui'n.
We need more specialists.
The specialist improves on
what has gone before. The gen-

The man with a "life work" is-
the best specialist. He has an,-
object in view; and, if lie ham-
mers away at it without devia-

Like the ancient pyramid
builders, it is up to the business
men and industrial workers of
the twentieth century to center
their brain and brawn on a work
which they intend pushing to a-
successful conclusion. The?
world will be better for this.
Determinedness and singleness-
of purpose is the specialist's-
creed. With it he cannot fear
the outcome.
