THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
I) i:c a eased Effici ency. What the Postmaster-General had to say regarding decreased efficiency in the Port and Telegraph service has been .said a good many times over in private businesses. It has been in part consequence of the period of prosperity which followed on the war. We all got slack in quite a variety of ways, and it has not been easy to get back the old sjiirit of energy. The harder times are doing this, however, in most directions. The margin of profit in bu-’uess and industry has in the majority of eases shrunk to such modest dimensions that lack of efficiency nowadays means not merely lessened profits but a balance on the wrong side. It was quite time wo were shaken out of the rut we were getting into. It is unpleasant at first, hut we will he the better for it. -—The “Dominion.”
