THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Profit And Money. We regard a profit as the inevitable conclusion of work well done. Money is simply a commodity which wc need just as we need coal and iron. Tf money he otherwise regarded, great, difficulties are inevitable, for then money gets itself ahead of service. And a business that does not serve has no place in our commonwealth. The most common error of confusing money and business comes about through the operation of the stock market. And especially through regarding the prices on the exchange as the “barometer of business.” People, are led to conclude that business is good if there is lively gambling upwards in stocks, and bad if the gamblers happen to be forcing prices down. —Henrv Ford.
