THE NECESSITY FOR TEAM WORK.

Mr. Henry Sutcliffe Smith, Pre sident of the Bradford Chamber of Commerce, recently wrote to a Bradford contemporary -

We want a spirit of comradeship, the spirit that helped us to win the war, and above all, sympathy, the sympathy that recognises the right of the employer to his share of what is.. worth whil in this world, and which endeavours to help him to attain it.

The employer who, like Abou Ben Adhem in Leigh Hunt's beautiful

the workers and wage-earners. We are too apt to say that if the working classes were more efficient, Increased output, that high produc- tivity which is described as the only way out, would be assured.

The greater efficiency is not only desirable, but possible among the masses of our population may be taken for granted.

The eye or hand or brain raised to its highest power, is one of the scar cest things in the world. There is always room for improvement, and the greater the skill the higher one's conception of skill becomes.

PUT A CURB ON THE TONGUE.. Tennyson says "The tongue is a fire." Probably the poet borrowed it from the Bible, which speaks of how great a fire a little spark kindles. In any case both sayings are true, and there is nothing more important to-day than that masters and men. should check, by every means and in every interest, the tendency to say things, that inevitably cause miscon ception, acrimony and strife.

These are crucial times. I quote the old formula, we want the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth" and bias destroys truth; is often, indeed, more dan

WIFE'S WRONG-DOING.

DIVORCE JUDGE'S DEFINITION

OF "CONE ONATION.”

In the Divorce Court on February, 27, Mr. Justice McCardie gave an Important judgment on the plea of condonation fn matrimonial offences. John Edward Cramp, a stud groom, asked for the dissolution of is marriage on the ground of his wife's misconduct during his absence in the Army, with the corespondent, Henry Freeman, a "farmer, and a former friend. Miconduct was not denied, but the wife alleged that her husband had condoned the offence. Petitioner denied condonation.

His Lordship said he accepted the evidence of the wife as to cohabita tion, but the question arose as to whether there had been condonation. Condonation was generally described as a conditional forgiveness of a known matrimonial offence-an im. plied condition that no further matrimonial offence shall be commit ted. By the matrimonial law of this country, if condonation took place the record was not blotted out, but over it, so to speak, was placed a

event of a new matrimonial offence the injured spouse may lawfully raise the veil and point to the record which had previously been hidden. This, however, was not the Christian doctrine of forgiveness.

RED TAPE IN BUSINESS. In fact it is not too much to say that the inefficient master rebs the efficient workman of the just fruit of his toil.

He depresses production by lack of foresight, by unbusinesslike method, by bad organisation, by in .sufficient and inefficient mechanical aide to production, by repetition and duplication.

There is red tape in business as

To-day it is up to every owner of machinery for the making of goods to see that his machinery is doing its utmost, in other words, to make in- creased production as easy as possible For the workers.

Someone has said: "Sweet the machinery and not the man" It is "a good saying and carries far...

The manufacturer who keeps ob- solete and inefficient machinery in his factory, mill or workshop to-day, is not only his own worst handicap, but is doing his work people a deep injustice and his country a disservice.

opposition. And, after all, are we not thinking and talking far too much of wages and profits and devoting far too little attention to, and taking too little interest in, the quality, the excellence, and the workmanship of the goods we turn out.

UNITY IS STRENGTH.. We want unity in our workshops most of all, singleness of purpose, the spirit of the trenches.

The spirit of the trenches. Yes, but in these days of peace let us rather say, the spirit or the football field, where every man, be he goal keeper, forward or back, plays for the team.

It seemed to him (the Judge) vital to remember that the forgiveness of condonation might be a wholly different thing from the forgiveness spoken of ordinary men and women. A true definition of con- donation was that it was a condi. tional waiver of Vì right of an injured spouse to take matrimonial proceedings, and was not forgiveness in the ordinary sense.

What was the doctrine of condona. Each man is as keen for the gen- tion? A man could not exercise the eral success of the team as for his rights of a husband and claim the own, and that very keenness is his discontinuance of the marriage bond. best contribution both to his own Therefore a man who had relations honour and his team's glory.
