5. The development of the greatest efficiency should be 

 the aim of all of us, whether in the office or in the field. 

 We are in the midst of a great movement, which is the conser- 

 vation of not only material things, tut of the efforts of man- 

 kind ir. general. As desoiples of conservation, does it not 

 behoove us to make the most of what we have, with the assur- 

 ance that new avenues for the added efficiency we acquire 

 through the exercise of our efforts every day, Trill be gradual- 

 ly opened up. 



Each of us possesses a certain given amount of energy. 

 Our minds and bodies are the plarts in which wo use this energy, 

 frc . ch we manufacture our character end achievements. It 

 requires a good engineer to run this plant in order to bring 

 out its greatest efficiency. Let every man be his own ef- 

 ficiency engineer in such a way as to reduce waste of effort to 

 a minimum and increase effectiveness to a maximum. 



Mr. Taylor amply sums up the whole natter in Ms boolc 

 "The Principles of Scientific Manaseraent", in the following 

 paragraph: 



"The time is fast going by for the great personal or 

 individual achievement of any one man standing alone and with- 



out the help of those around him. And the time is cor.ing 

 all great things will be done by that type of cooperation In 

 which er.ch man performs the function for which he is best 

 suited, each man preserves his own individuality and is supreme 

 in his particular function, and each man at the sane time loses 

 none of his originality and proper personal initiative, and 

 yet is controlled by and must work harmoniously with many other 

 men."
