DEAR FOLKS V ERY early is my daily trip« through tile Wilson 4 Com¬ pany plant. Chicago, I made it a point to and oat if the women workers were contented. I know by experience that if women look cheerful and act happily it is a ¦Hire lign that all is well.that it .e a very good reflector of the character and heart of a business. I mutt tay I was greatly impressed. ar ? very much pleased aj I visited departments in the Wilson & Com¬ pany plant.particularly those de¬ partments where women stand alongside of the men laborers and do their atrork skillfully and cheer¬ fully. These good women themselves told me that they like their work very much, and they »aid it so earnest¬ ly and frankly that there waj no mistaking tbe uncenty of their words. I have visited many business in¬ stitutions in my lifetime where many women are employed. I Am glad to say that m a great many instances these business in¬ stitutions really desire to make their women workers happy and comfortable, which is greatly to the credit of the men who con¬ duct them. But practically in every institu¬ tion I visited there seemed to be something lacking.something that -.»»trained the happy looks and the laughter I saw and heard in the ranks of the women workers in the Wilson & Company plant. Sie good will, enthusiasm and e fine spirit they show in their work.so unusual in my expe¬ rience.set me to asking ques¬ tions. I felt there was some ex¬ traordinary condition existing that produced such a wave of contentment. And I soon found out. First. I learned that Mr. Wilson himself enjoys a splendid reputa¬ tion among the women workers. They have unbounded faith in him as a man. They appreciate his kindness, sympathy and consid¬ eration. But Mr. Wilson himself cannot do everything. He has to dele¬ gate power to others, but, in choosing those to represent him. he makes sure to find men and women of character and heart and ability and engaging person¬ ality. He found a jewel in a little Bo- hamian young woman.35 years old.on whom he placed the re¬ sponsibility of employing and di¬ recting the women workers in the plant. This voung woman, as I soon «siscoa-taíf»«!, the key that opens the doors to the happy working conditions that prevail. She has a wonderful personality: she keeps in daily touch with her army of women workers.more . than 1,100 of them. She studies "«their comforts. She loves them ¿nd shows that she loves them. They love her and the-, show that they love her. How ttiany women readers of this letter would like to undertake the task of leading over 1,100 women workers and keeping them happy. It is a very big undertaking; but this little woman (she's not much bigger than a pint of cider) loves the work so much that she gets the greatest joy of her life in the doing of it. She does her work because she loves to help others. She feels that she is in a position where, by kind acts, she can help to brighten the lives of a host of women workers; that she can help to teach them our American cus¬ toms and our language; that she can develop in them the love of the beautiful in their home lives; that she can make them as proud to live in America and become American citizens as she herself is proud to live here and to be a loyal, true-blue American citizen.

Swift & Company prove that out of every dollar the retailer pays to the packers for meat, 2 cents is for packers' profit-, 13 cents is for operating expenses, and 85 cents goes to the stock raiser: and that the prices of live stock and meat move up and down together. The live-stock raiser points to rising costs of raising live stock. Labor reminds us that higher wages must go hand in hand with the new cost of living. No one, apparently, is responsible. No one, apparently, is benefited by higher prices and higher income. We are all living on a high-priced scale. One trouble is, that the number of dollars has multiplied faster than the quantity of goods, so that each dollar buys less than formerly. ·>, Swift & Company, U. S. A.

TRANSCRIPT

DEAR FOLKSV ERY early is my daily trip«

through tile Wilson 4 Com¬pany plant. Chicago, I made it a

point to and oat if the women

workers were contented. I knowby experience that if women lookcheerful and act happily it is a

¦Hire lign that all is well.that it.e a very good reflector of thecharacter and heart of a business.

I mutt tay I was greatly impressed.ar ? very much pleased aj I visiteddepartments in the Wilson & Com¬pany plant.particularly those de¬partments where women standalongside of the men laborers anddo their atrork skillfully and cheer¬fully.These good women themselves toldme that they like their work verymuch, and they »aid it so earnest¬ly and frankly that there waj no

mistaking tbe uncenty of theirwords.

I have visited many business in¬stitutions in my lifetime wheremany women are employed. IAm glad to say that m a greatmany instances these business in¬stitutions really desire to maketheir women workers happy andcomfortable, which is greatly tothe credit of the men who con¬duct them.

But practically in every institu¬tion I visited there seemed to besomething lacking.something that-.»»trained the happy looks andthe laughter I saw and heard inthe ranks of the women workersin the Wilson & Company plant.

Sie good will, enthusiasm ande fine spirit they show in their

work.so unusual in my expe¬rience.set me to asking ques¬tions. I felt there was some ex¬

traordinary condition existingthat produced such a wave ofcontentment.

And I soon found out.

First. I learned that Mr. Wilsonhimself enjoys a splendid reputa¬tion among the women workers.They have unbounded faith in himas a man. They appreciate hiskindness, sympathy and consid¬eration.

But Mr. Wilson himself cannotdo everything. He has to dele¬gate power to others, but, inchoosing those to represent him.he makes sure to find men andwomen of character and heartand ability and engaging person¬ality.

He found a jewel in a little Bo-hamian young woman.35 yearsold.on whom he placed the re¬sponsibility of employing and di¬recting the women workers in theplant.This voung woman, as I soon«siscoa-taíf»«!, ?· the key that opensthe doors to the happy workingconditions that prevail. She hasa wonderful personality: shekeeps in daily touch with herarmy of women workers.more

. than 1,100 of them. She studies"«their comforts. She loves them¿nd shows that she loves them.They love her and the-, show thatthey love her.

How ttiany women readers of thisletter would like to undertake thetask of leading over 1,100 womenworkers and keeping them happy.It is a very big undertaking; butthis little woman (she's not muchbigger than a pint of cider) lovesthe work so much that she getsthe greatest joy of her life in thedoing of it.

She does her work because sheloves to help others. She feelsthat she is in a position where,by kind acts, she can help tobrighten the lives of a host ofwomen workers; that she can helpto teach them our American cus¬toms and our language; that shecan develop in them the love ofthe beautiful in their home lives;that she can make them as proudto live in America and becomeAmerican citizens as she herselfis proud to live here and to be aloyal, true-blue American citizen.ITTJaa» «Ovation ef «hr .«..mri.-vtnrkrra«· «hi« .....nit Untarmi..» p a Baal, ?

Who Benefits by High Prices?You feel that retail meat prices are too

high. f

Your retailer says he has to pay higherprices' to the packers.

Swift & Company prove that out ofevery dollar the retailer pays to thepackers for meat, 2 cents is for packers'profit-, 13 cents is for operating expenses,and 85 cents goes to the stock raiser: andthat the prices of live stock and meatmove up and down together.The live-stock raiser points to rising

costs of raising live stock.

Labor reminds us that higher wagesmust go hand in hand with the new costof living.No one, apparently, is responsible. No

one, apparently, is benefited by higherprices and higher income.

We are all living on a high-priced scale.One trouble is, that the number of dollarshas multiplied faster than the quantity ofgoods, so that each dollar buys less thanformerly.
