HbW JOBS ARE LOST.
Man'Who Stole Time is Considered
the Most Striking.
Now and then the letters received
> y the Lost Job editor Indicate thnt
njustlco has been done by employers
n discharging workers unjustly , but
n most cnses It Is clear that jobs are
est because they deserve to be lost ,
snyo the Chicago Tribune. Employes
seem to be shortsighted. Sometimes
they think they nro In line for quick
promotion , when they suddenly got
notice to quit.
A surprising thing , too , about the
lost Jobs , as evidenced by the letters
received , Is thnt most workers who
got fired are not expecting it. The man
Hint's scnred of his job , usually Is nble
to hang on to it. The confident mnn ,
who thinks ho owns his place and that
ho cnn do ns ho pleases , really Is the
ono that Is in danger.
The reasons assigned by the Job los
ers this week nro tabulated as follows ,

. Tlio prize of $5 offered each week
for the best "How I Lost My Job"
story is awarded to C. II. S. , who ad
mits that he was dishonest , Inasmuch
as he stole time from the drra. How
ever , it Is to be feared if nil the work
ers who steal the bosses' time wore
to bo drQd some Saturday night there
would bo n general tleup In business
Monday morning. The account of C.
II. S. Is given In full :
"I am another of the race of 'brend
winners' to ncknowledge thnt I lost
my job though my bread and butter
depended upon It through dishonesty.
There nro several ways of being dis
honest , nnd , though my work consist
ed largely In handling nickels and
dimes , not ono of them over cnmo up
missing ; yet the charge against me ,
literally speaking , was ono of dishon
esty.
"I wns collector for a fnlrly good
drin doing n larfa'e credit business , and
nlso did some work on the books. I
had been behind a desk for throe years
long hours and hard work and when
such a change was made ns to allow
mo some outside work , I am afraid I
was encllned to abuse the privilege ,
for the shopping and visiting habit
soon seemed to get possession of me.
As a result , collections fell off. The
manager sent duns to delinquents , and
when they advised that no ono had
called to collect , as was the custom , I
was cautioned to keep up with the col
lections. I worked faithfully for n
week or so , but the tomptntlon to drop
In for n little visit with this or that
friend wns too much for mo , and it
was on ono of these visits that I fpund
my employer in the odlco. He was
surprised , and nsked If B. & Co. owed
us anything. Of course they did not ,
nnd , while I nm not cxnctly n George
Wnshington , I don't like to Ho , nnd
It was not easy for mo to think of an
excuse.
"When I was told that evening that
my services were no longer needed ,
I realized that I was n thief not a
thief In the general term for I had
carried off no worldly goods but had
been guilty of theft of time. "
