56 HASKINS & SELLS July Use of Spare Time NOTHING is more tiring than sitting about without a definite thing to occupy one's mind. Idle time is deadening. It is demoralizing. It is wasteful. Reading is interesting to most persons. Many crave the opportunity and time for it. Study is attractive to a certain type of mind. But reading becomes tiresome after a certain length of time. Study brings drowsiness if the day happens to be warm. With a view to utilizing the time of the men between engagements, while holding the staff together during the least busy season of the year, the firm, through the Department for Professional Training, has instituted a series of staff conferences. These are being held at the Executive Offices, 469 Fifth Avenue. The work is built around a graded and logical collection of material dealing with the theory and practice of accounting, together with such subjects as law, finance, economics, organization and management in their relation to accounting, and the theory, practice, and technique of accountancy, with special reference to the technique of the firm. Lectures by Mr. Wildman and Mr. C. M. Clark are followed by the work of solving and discussing problems correlated with the theory. It is hoped that these conferences will serve not only to occupy to advantage what would otherwise be spare time, but be instrumental in producing a better trained and more effective staff for service during the busy season.
