This is con ! elusive evidence that fighting has At the recent conference of execu tives; on human relations in industry, several speakers emphasized the nec essity of continuous education in and for business. As a rule, leaders in the essentially modern movement for adult education dwell on the cul tural and liberal aspects of their cause. It may be well to remind them that business, like the professions, the arts and the sciences demands continuous education. No one graduates in business. In itial preparation is indispensable but insufficient. Constant adjustments are necessary to resonable success in industry or commerce. The world in the family metaphor, is becoming smaller and smaller as distance is annihilated by aviation and radio. The business man's markets may be international, and he may have to study the tastes and manners of hun dreds of classes of potential consum ers. Invention is a factor always to be kept in view. Standards change, new demand follow technical im provements and, despite mergers and combinations, competition is keen, al beit in novel forms. Truly, in the words of Prof. Ful mer of Nebraska, business has no mercy on misfits and bunglers, and "foresight is being substituted for bunches, information for opinion, knowledge for gossip, and hard, cold facts for tradition." There have been momentous im provements in the ethics of business and in the relations between em ployers and employed. To recognize these and to promote further progress in business, one must march abreast of the spirit of the age, assimilate valuable ideas, try hopeful experi ments. In short, continuous adult educa tion has become one of the basic conditions of business success. :o: Girls are more cultured than boys today, declared Dr. Josiah Oldfield, prominent European physician, be cause the girls are always anxious to be ladies, while are boys are too often satisfied to be louts.
