INITIATIVE
By J. Ogden Armour
OPPORTUNITY is looking
for the man with initiative.
She needs him even more
than he needs her. And who
is the man with initiative?
Simply the man who cap do
the right thing, at the * right
time, in the right way, with
out beng told. He is the man
who doesn’t wait upon his
“boss” to tell him how, when
and what—to do. He relies
upon his “boss” to aid his
plans, but not to make his
plans.
If you follow instructions,
and follow them well, you are
above the average; there will
always be a place for you in
the world of affairs.
But, if you can exceed your
instructions in doing the things
that ought to be done, then you
are among the chosen minori
ty. Destiny has picked you
for special preferment—you
have initiative.
Iniative is the power to cre
ate, all else is but the ability
to imitate. And for every man
who can create an idea, there
are a thousand who can skill
fully imitate it. For each per
son who can move forward on
his own impulse, there are
scores who can go ahead only
if someone else will supply the
| impluse. This is the same as
! saying that real initiative is
very rare; therefore, it is in
great demand.
We need in this world the
man who can “carry the mes
sage to Garcia,” but still more
do we need the man who can
furnish the message.
Cultivate, therefore, the
habit of being a self-starter,
both in thought and action. I
give you a simple test: think
of one new thing, today, j
which you can do for your,
company’s interests. Then do
it.
That will be initiative; and j
you will find that it is made |
up of about one part superior
ability and three parts su
perior determination. Repeat

Hon. Ed Roddy and Mrs.

The bride is a valuable em
ployee of the Augusta Mercan
tile Co. with whom she has
held a responsible position the
past several years and is held
the test tomorrow, the next
day, and the day after, until it
becomes the habit of your
thought and life to explore
new fields and break down old
ruts. That will make of you
a success as your own task
master, which is the first
great stepping stone to other j
successes beyond.—Success, j

Some Facts About
THE UNIVERSAL CAR
T-Jere are authentic figures from the Ford factory at Detroit.
They show you just how many Ford cars and trucks have been
built each month since January 1, 1921 and how many have been
sold to retail customers in the United States.

Produced Retail Customers

Totcl Production 127,074 Total Retail Sales 207,732
showing that actual sales for the first three months of 1921 ex
ceeded production by 80,658 Ford cars and trucks.
April requisitions already specify 107,719 additional cars and
trucks and the estimated April output of the factory and assembly
plants combined calls for only 90,000.
These facts clearly show that the demand for Ford products
is growing much faster than manufacturing facilities to produce
and were it not for the dealers’ limited stocks, which are now be
ing rapidly depleted, many more customers would have been com
pelled to wait for their cars. It will only be a matter of weeks,
therefore, until a big surplus of orders will prevent anything like
prompt deliveries.
If you would be sure of having your Ford car or truck when
you want it, you should place your order now. Don’t delay.
