When both the Dealer and cha Painter make a study of what thel& customer* want, and not what they can make the meet money on for the time-being, and direct their effort* to furnishing what la wanted, there will b* no lack of co-operation. Observation covering u experience of thirty- eight years in the trade has n*ed la the mind of the writer tint a cardinal principle of a suc cessful business Is In giving the people what they want. This, to the long run, not only contribute* I* the upbuilding of a reputation thU constitute* ad Invaluable asset, but affords a larger profit me well. There Is a difference between, a merchant and a trader, and between a painter an a dauber.

Some ``Different" Sales Slaking Methods, EspedaDy In Direct MaDing Work, to Arouse the bidlffetent. ^ Many dealers have built op a profitable paint- business through, the > mailing' of booklets, folders., enclosing slips, and the like. This Is among the least wasteful methods of advertising---IP- your list Is good. The quality ot your Ust la the most Important part of such a direct campaign. Don't overlook the postage bill--stamps cose money. About [ sixty per cent ot the printed matter circulated now-a-days falls Into 'dead hands--people who aren't In the market, have moved, don't ovn f. the property they live In etc., etc. And the dealers who ? finding , ' direct coaU advertising profitable, and who are the loudeet In Its praise f -- aro those who nave 'live*' lists. And they are always adding and 'trilling" names on thet list. By this time you are probably asking r can I get a live Ust?" One way (and sn expensive wsy> is by ,;VcothplHog a list from your city directory, the telephone hook, tax list and trade and special directories. This Is hardly possible Cor dealers in tbs largeet or smallest towns; but these methods fit the average county-seat town. Perhaps the best way anywhere to get a bet-tsr list " la "to begin ta a email way and make every name added to yeurHJsf a real known prospect. During the dull days have one or more your clerks go over a certain district and make a list of the houses, barns and fences needing painting--then find out the owner of the building. ' wreraJly the tenant will co-operAts with you In Influencing the owner ' * to paint now. Keep your clerks working slowly, carefully, and systematieally until all yonr trade territory has been well eovsred. Of course If the clerk ess drop a tittle sales talk on varnish or anything else while he is adding names Co the list, that's good business. The Globe Mtg. Co., "Peoria's Greatest Paint Store," here e "business buggy**-- In which their city salesman calls on sneb prospects and he makes `'trade extension tours** Into the country; thereby getting orders, and names on their mailing Ust. That** a live firm. Mow about the printed matter Itself--pages could be and have bean written about booklets, blotter*, fans letters, folders, enclosing slips, ete. But I do want to say something about getting out printed matter that's "different'*---stuff that Is read, and remembered because it's dif ferent, and yet that tells Its sales story seriously and effectively. Some of the most alert advertisers forget the value of uafqueaeoe In Its ap plication to this direct appeal advertising. Some of these probably think that th offer Itself Is so good, or that tbs price is so low, that that ought to suffice. But It doesn't. Any piece of printed matter should, not only have strong argument, but H should b strong or strik ing or impressive In Its form. Several examples of Just sucb advertising are reproduced here, Bach has a purpose of its own--they're all Intended, to create a buying desire that will persuade tbs reader to buy at the store ndvertleed; , and while that Is the purpose of all local advertising, yet there's a lot IB BLUE STORE Unt W* s aw *,u Kna V Sawn*.

Here's an Idea from Ballou--the Worcester patot pusher. The picture sbowa just bow tbs folder works. The idea 1* a splsndld one, and it Is carried out well. Mr. Ballou gets these in the bands of the proper pdople at tbe timely time--he Isn't one of the Jawn Timmons variety that Joel Blanc talks about in this liana, who advertises lawn furniture paint In January. And this Ballou circular probably sold glassi--certainly It made the people of Worcester confident that Ballou was "on the Job" and that they needn't fear that he'd be "Just out.** Ballou goes after the motorists* trsjle, too. On one of hia blotters which he mailed to all the Worcester auto enthusiasts he advertises bis auto oils, greases and gasolines with this sans argument printed undsrneeth a striking picture ot tbs ''Queen of tbe Hoad":--"Cf we were not sure that our prlcss and roods were attractive to you, Mr. Motorist, we wouldn't address you. One Call convinces YOU--a second convince* UB that you appreciate genuine bargains." The Seevey Hardware Co., Port Wayne, lad., moiled several five hr seven mailing cards to selected lists. One card bore the caption *^The Ladles* Hardware Store/* and each card had a different view ot tpe interior of the store, with a half dosen lloee of sailing talk troderawath. They're Martln-Sesour agents--nave the paint "up lrobtl"to; -- \ In Washington, D. C., there's s firm, the B. J. Murphy Co., that bblleve* In nnlqnsnes whan It gats out printed matter. One of Its ad vertising man's efforts resulted in a little four-pegs folder with "How We Last a Customer--f" and their name and address on the front page. Inside wsa pasted a small slip bordered with a heavy black rule and the two words "H Died.** Ho----that didn't cause s Jam In tbe store---but it did cause comment, end aroused the smites of a whole lot of people who said "that's pretty good." and many of them saved the folder to arouse the smile sod comments of others. That reminds me of a little booklet that Mr. F. A. Farrar, adver tising manager of Adams A Biting Co., circulated during the Peary-Cook controversy. The front bore the title "What I Found st the North Pole*'--aad the pagua inside were blank: NOTHING. Form letters form an Important part of the D. W. M*lln Co.'s campaign. Tbelr manager, Mr. Bolden, has soma good ones, too. Sev eral wars printed lo the "A. P. O, D.'* some time ago. He enclosed an addressed postal card with the letter to the house-owners of Bpringfleld, Mass., which reads:--*1! am Interested In paint materials aad would be pleased to have your representative call," Room is given for signature end address. That's a mighty good Idea, 1 think. "We want to make a hit with these and wake up some sleepy peo ple who need work done. Do you think we will?'* write Schaefer A Wulf, Brooklyn, M.

In order to do this, utilize the talent that has grown up with the concern. The next question is: How can this be accom-| plished? A business must, of course, he divided into depart-l ments according to the innnner in which the work_ can be best classified. The trusted employees whom you liave trained personally can now be utilized to good advantage by assuming responsibility for details that formerly required your personal supervision. This is usual and neecssary, and also one of the moat critical periods in. the history of any progressive busi ness. Right here is where you should be careful not to separate your business, but unite it more firmly than ever. Do not permit the idea to prevail that ; separate departments are entirely distinct and that the head of each and employees in same are rivals of all I others, each set striving to make the best record from [ a purely selfish standpoint. When you were personally looking after the de tails the business as a whole was considered. To i succeed the policy must continue. A bud can not HyJ with a broken wing; neither can a business prospct| that is conducted only half right. Co-operation should exile between departments 1 such an extent that the welfare of the business as 1 whole will be considered. When you discontinue* looking after the established details of the busmei . you placed the responsibility of performing those d-^ tails properly with two or more persons with definite instructions. If conditions did not change they ought handle those details entirely independent of each other 1 jand work as smoothly as any other machine you can , set in motion. But conditions do change. You relieved yourself of detail work because the business was growing and I Iyou wanted to use your brains to better advantage in J planning for its advancement- Is it nor just as necessary that the men who stepped I into your shoes, as regards detail work, should'use I their brains under changed conditions} And if they 1 took your place how are they going to use Chair brains I intelligently unless they get together and consider! their work from all standpoints, hist as you did when 1 you were in their place. This it what is meant by] co-operative management. If you separate your business into parts with the] sole aim of each to "attend 10 their own business--] InoJliing more and nothing less.** you are placing al premium on stagnation and failing 10 take advantage! o j the latent ability of many an employe* that would be brought out under proper conditions. Co-operative management involves very little change from regular methods os regards the handling of details, but it obtains more enthusiastic service and ] consequently better result*. A system in which every employee is invited to take j an interest removes cause* of unrest and dissatisfac tion and removes carelessness due to ignorance and ] lack of application. When we started our present plan we concluded ? ivc could secure co-operation and maintain a perfect 1 system without coercion, and at the same time over come all prejudice that might, exist between our ecn- | ployees and ourselves. The fact must not be lost sight of that oil advances | must come from the company on the start, and confi dence must be thoroughly established. This can not be done in a moment. You can, however, demon strate your good intentions by your good works, and that can best be done by adopting methods or plans for the comfort, happiness and mental, moral and social condition of those in your employ. In doing this yuu create a boml of sympathy, and as a result the value of your employees' labor will certainly be enhanced. The satisfaction derived from knowing that yp" are making il lives of others happier and more useful is worth much, and alone stamps our plan a success, but when regarded purely front the practical business standpoint of dollars and cents it will be found equally successful, as experience has demonstrated chat more and better goods can be made, with the Vsame expenditure for labor, than under old condi tions. f ass *** ta k?'W*Ss|; 0007-SWP-042944 T 0007-SWP-000126547 0007-SWP-000126548 74 Social Service September Fire Department of the Acme White Lead and Color Works SHOP MNOONPQNRO HE Acme White Lead and Color *T Works, of Detroit, Mich., which company is a Commercial Member of STU VS Sek v t c s , have their own fire company. The members of the com pany are employees of this Arm, and are very proud of their organization. In training and discipline this fire company is the equal of many metropolitan fire companies and the superior of others. The Acme Fire Depart ment of the Acme Lead and Color Works was organized early in the year 1900. Mr. Thomas Neal, Secretary of the Acme White Lead and Color Works, says: "We thought it would be a good thing to have such an organization as an adjunct to other precau tionary measures against fire. So did ur em ployees. They took hold Vint* Tower. with a vim. turning out with alacrity to practice drills, individually and collectively evincing such an interest and willing ness to co-operate as to make the plan a success/' The Chief and Assistant Chief The Acme Fire Department is officered by a Chief and Assistant Chief. They assume the responsibility of maintaining a fire company that is prepared to fight fire anywhere in the Acme works at an instant's warning--night or day. What the Chief and his Assist ant say about fire protection "goes." They make precaution ary rules and regulations, and by these all employees are guided. In the plan of organi zation there is a force of "reg ulars'* and "auxiliary" fire fight ers. They are prepared to do the lighting at whatever point may be indicated by the fire alarm signal--and do it quick. The auxiliaries are a reserve force in constant training, ready to take the place of absent `regulars'* and as sist night watch men m case of emergency. H. O. R. Ellis, Chief, and Lool* Talbot. Assistant Chief Employees Are Organised as Firemen In addition to the "fire fighters*' employees in all departments are organized to cake prompt precautionary measures regarding escape from the buildings and the protection of property. In order to keep the employees in practice they are liable to be startled at any moment by the signal, "fire drill/' when all work is instantly dropped, and the alert and quick way in which the ma chinery is shut down, windows closed, fire ex tinguishers, hose, sand pails and axes are "ready for business" with the employees lined up for a quick and orderly exit is astonishing. In fortyfive seconds from the time the alarm is sounded the "regulars*' have two streams playing on different buildings. This is remarkable when one stops to consider that the men must quit their work and get into their "harness*' of rubber coats, hats and belts before reporting at the fire station, indicated by the alarm. These fire stations are located at different places on the ground and in the works, and each station is supplied with from 100 to 200 feet of hose. Everything in Perfect Trim Ready for Business It is also the duty of the "regulars," who are selected from all the va rious departments of the factories, to examine weekly the condition of 0007-SWP-042946 0007-SWP-000126549 0007-SWP-000126550 igoi Acme fire Department IS alt fire apparatus in every de tall water tower, which automatically assists the partment and make a written pump, should the demand be beyond its capacity. report to the Chief.

The pictures and matter cannot fail to interest every person V jarucipatins- in this outing.

During the week beginning December 9th the officers and traveling representatives of the Acme White Lead and Color Works. Detroit, Mich., held their annual convention and banquet at Hotel Cadillac. There were present about one hundred per sons. Several days were given to the convention and a number of addresses were made by officers of the company and its repre sentatives from various points. Every one was invited to express hta opinion on the matters in hand, and when It came to the question of the advisability of putting on the market a cheaper grade of goods the sentiment of all was well expressed by Thomas Neal, who said: "We have the name of putting out nothing but high-grade goods, and let us stick-to that Reputation. People would rather buy our high-grade goods titan to bother with any cheap enamel." The banquet itself was a very enjoyable affair. The feast of good things was followed by delightful music and interesting addresses, and the representatives went bark to their work with a stronger determination than ever before to keep "Acme" goods at the front, with the assurance from the company that they will 1 be supplied with the best oi everything in their line. It should be said, by the way, that there is an organization in | connection with this company which, so far as we know, is abso lutely unique, but which might well be imitated. It is called the "Ti-Ki." and is mad* up of the officers, heads of departments and other representatives of the company, the purpose being to bring j the members into closer touch and so facilitate the work oi alL 0007-SWP-042954 ix a a **** 0007-SWP-00012655' firms of ACME WHITE LEAD ft .

IaatnctlTC M *rt Arm; U rf mpicHiHtiint. Condition to-day, 50 far as they apt9 bcsincis, at least, are gradually eaderfo*0* changes. Methods, the loiiKtl world have been ujing lor the ^ wenty yearj, are not adapted to .be present. There is an evolution gnJuS, taking place at the present ,jpn brought about by the Compett- jpt System largely--and whole it may ^r* strange, nevertheless it is a fact g ,, judgment, that the wage earner j the one, who wiB profit to the great- * - * aAMtliimnd. THOJfAS ffCAC. )|j reason for thinking so, is just Ate bis a Hlkvidnt fact tht there * a (rowing demand for, and a better awtesandiig in the public's mind for, i4 is to what constitutes the best nto ia any manufactured article. So, daik seems to me. that a wide awake --htturer from now on, will not otir nrk to buy the best material, from A 10 nuke his product, bat like wise will endeavor to secure the best of talent tor his workshop. In order to do this, lie imut offer inducements of a humane and educations! character, as we are doing:, to not only draw to him the choicest help, but at the same time, to gradually advance their usefulness, by presenting them, opportunities to de velop themselves mentally,morally and physically. This is what wc arc aiming to do, and it is gradually becoming apparent that we shall succeed in out undertak ing. Sometimes the business grows and expands to inch an extent and with such rapidity, that it seems utterly im possible to get the tight land of co operation from the employees. This is largelv due to frietion and personal animosities, that exist between indi viduals. It always puts me in mind of a barky team of horses, when one is willing to go ahead, the other backs up --And so it often happens, with em ployees or departments, when personal prejudices of employees are permitted ro influence their actions to such an extent as to actually interfere with the welfare or progress of the business, to the positive injury of both em ployee and employer. That is an ex perience, most business men have to contend with. It Is an unfortunate cir cumstance, probably not intentional, but simply due to the fact. In my judg ment, that employes are not brought close enough together and that their personal prejudices and dislikes of their co-workers are permitted to influence their actions in the conduct of their work. At least, that is the reason, we assign to it and which we hove set out to overcome. After pursuing the regulation busi ness methods, in our business, for a period of about 15 years, wc concluded that wc could get more co-operation out of our employees and set out to create a self-adjusting system of co operative factory and office manage ment, that would permit our business to expand and grow, to unlimited pro portions, and at the same time give to our employees, an opportunity to as sist in its development and economical administration, the results of which, would warrant us in doing by our em ployees, at we would like to be done by, and so we have adopted our present system of Co-operative Factory and Office Management, with which I as sume, you are all quite familiar. If the employees of the factory caa be enthused with the spirit of good will towards their employers, they, in turn, are going to reap the benefit be cause every dollar that is added to the business, makes it that much more prosperous, especially if the expense does not increase with the business. It makes it seem possible for the manage ment to be more liberal with their em ployees. ' The head, the hand, the feet have common interests. If one member suf fers, all the members suffer with it. All portions of the body are served in common and built tip by the blood, which like money, is the "circulating medium." If one arm does more work than the other, it draws more pay; that is, it draws to itself more blood, with the result that it gets more growing material and hence becomes stronger than the other. Just in proportion as the brain works, it draws to itself and is built up. The more any member spends by its activity, the more is it compensated; so that the body has what might be called a self-a/uisting wage system, which is perfectly equitable. STRIKES THAT RE-ACT. . Now suppose there takes place, what St. Paul ealls "schism in the body/* that is a division. Forgetting that they are mutually dependent, tbaj their inter ests are common, the eye says to the hand, "I hare no need of thee;" or the bead says to the feet, "I have no need of yon;" or hands and feet organize a strike against the head and refuse to feed it How much strength would the muscles get by refusing food to the mouth. Or, we will suppose that the selfadjusting wage system of the body gets out of order, with the result that there arises a dispute between the brain and the limbs as to which Is entitled to most of the "ciicoUdng medium." The limbs say: "Anybody caa see that we are the workers; we produce the results. Let the brain try to swing a pick or dimb a ladder, or plow a fur row, or carry a load without us,`and it will discover that: we do the world's business and create the world's wealth.* Accordingly the members, by some combination succeed in drawing to themselves much of the blood which belongs to the brain. In consequence. _ 0007-SWP-000126572 w xJr OG me n q u e t . viKilsv tt Jdan Entertains Offlca Fore* Concern. dt, traveller sale** tor the Acme White Lead an l Color works of Detroit, cm behalf of hie company, save a banquet last night *t the Hotel Grant to the office force and salesmen of Colburn.

Rounding Out a BiiImis -- Tbe Sinning Mat In tlvc early stages of a business--the period that might properly be termed "laying the foun dation"--h is both proper and necessary that the person, or persons, most vitally interested in its growth and proper development, should per sonally perform, or closely scan and direct, the numerous details that shape its policy and course. Hus is essential for many reasons, the principal of which are: First,--Economy demands it. Xo matter what amount of capital a company, firm or individual may commence with, the ratio of expense is bound to be high at the beginning, and the strict est economy must be observed, and no one will guard your interest in this particular so well as yourself. Second.--The establishment at proper and sys tematic methods renders it necessary. Those who are molt vitally interested in ihe develop ment of a business are naturally those in the best position to establish details for its proper shaping and handling. The man who has "been through the milt* is better able to instruct others and inculcate those lubits of thrift and systematic attention to de tails that result hi a constant; lowering of the ratio of expense as the business increases in volume. At this stage it is particularly necessary tliat the greatest care should be exercised in the selec tion of assistants, for if your business succeed, the "mere details'' you place in tlwr charge wilt Tm Cwwral yiuagtaentCwattince be transformed in time to "departments*' that will require "executive ability" to regulate property* Integrity, ability and faithfulness are the (hie! attributes you are looking for, and you mutt be able to "mould" these to fit Into your busmen plan to a nicety.

You can afford to do it Give them the greatest possible latitude to help you; you will be astonished at the interest they will take. Ask their advice and listen to their counsel. Place suggestion and complaint boxes about, your plant, and ask your employees to offer sug gestions or report their grievances. The result will astonish you; please you in many cases, and sad. but true, humiliate you in others. Investi gate carefully all suggestions and complaints. Show your employees yon are tit earnest in all you have undertaken, and be prepared to be sur prised at results. Encourage the beautifying of your plant and grounds; it is expensive at the start, but like all good things, economical in die end. Thrifty feet you can do mote, give good hot coffee, in clude soup if you can. and. better still, a good hot lunch- at your expense. Yon take good care of your livestock, you buy good coal for your boilers, why not provide good fuel to your employees? Good food in their stomachs is the same as good fuel under a boiler.

Do these things voluntarily and you will find the -walking delegates'* of labor unions will have a for field of labor in your plant, but on the other hand, you will gain the good will of tabor advocates. Encourage the organization of a mutual beneftr association among your employees, contribute something at the start to help swell the treasury. It is along these lines the labor problem will be solved, at least such is my opinion. The eleva tion of the conditions surrounding employees-- their recognition as human beings who have their cherished ideals and plans, the advancement pos sible to them through self-culture and interest in their work. These things will bring about the solution of problems the labor unions cannot fathom. The Change at Flrat May Be Startling At the sun the change wilt be so radical your employees will become bewildered. They will probably start off enthusiastically, be greatly in terested, and need little, if any. urging. Then possibly friction wilt arise and some of the en thusiasm wane. Do not let that discourage you; the seed will have been sown, and the harvest wilt come in rime. Each individual mind will be aroused and gradually interest trill begin to awaken. Men in your employ you never heard of, and do not even know by name, will begin to use the suggestion boxes. The competition for prises is one of the most fruitful sources of encourage ment to employees. Offer liberal rewards for suggestions. Some of your oldest employees, those you expected the most of. will be the slowest in awakening to new* conditions. Probably because they are perfectly contented now*. But that con dition win not last long: in time they will became just as earnest and enthusiastic as others. A change of this kind may even create friction or jealousy. This will not last long, but will wear away naturally. Some of your employees may even doabt your good intentions. You must ex pect that, but do not let it discourage yon. It wit! be more than offset by ihe consciousness that you are doing right, and for every soul so small as to harbor a thought of that kind, you will have hundreds who will be enthusiastically apprecia tive and grateful. Never forget that you have determined to win the confidence of your employees. You must do this by acts of simple justice and consideration. Dallas f Gwplayee Te Eo^leyer What X have said &o far bas been directed along (lie line that should be pursued by employer in the treatment of anployee. and now I shall say a few words regarding the duties of employee to employer. Always remember this: ' If your employers conclude to adopt and make this new system a part of your business organization, it will be your fault if success is not attained. Grasp the opportunity if it comes to you. because it means happiness, opportunities of self-culture, more beautiful surroundings, and. we hope, greater prosperity, all of which will contribute to make you better citizen*. with higher ambitions and greater opportunities for advancement. And now I think 1 hear you ask: "How are we to go about it in order to establish such a system?** This is not an easy question for me to answer, because I am not sufficiently familiar with (tie details of your present organization to advise intelligently, so I win simply explain the method under which we work, assuming that it may be of assistance in formulating a plan of your own. The Committee System We hare adopted the Committee System, and I will briefly explain its formation and the titles and duties of the various committees. - In the first place, the active management of our Company is delegated by tlie Board of Directors to two officers of the Company, the President and Secretary*. It remained for them, therefore^' to organise to suit our particular business and requirements. After one or more trials the following committees were formed and are in operation: Executive Camalllcs Composed of: The President and Secretary of the Company. The Manager of the sales and advertising de partments. The Manager of the credit and purchasing de partments. 1 The General Supervisor of Factories. This Committee meets at lunch every day and reviews and passes upon matters of business policy. Details and ideas are carried out through the next named Committee.

You wilt notice that here the officers of the Company drop out of the active management, thus placing greater responsibility upon their chief assistants, who arc expected and encouraged to manage the business, so far as carrying one the genera] policy (previously outlined by the Execu tive Committee) is concerned, according to their best judgment. It ie the combined judgment of three trained men. If they are not unanimous on any subject before them, they bring the proposi tion to the Executive Committee and ask their judgment. All other Committees-are subordinate to them. Factory Snpervlsian Ceamlttes Composed of: The General Supervisor and three assistant supervisors. They meet only occasionally to take action on subjects referred (o them by the general man agement committee. Maid( Coawtttce Composed of: Supervisors, chemist and foremen, or heads of departments in the factories. They conduct experimental work; maintain a strict supervision and watchfulness over the product; look after the investigation of com plaints. and attend to suggestions concerning the manufacture of goods. They meet each day and rr^ort to the General Management Committee. addition to the foregoing we have Commftms selected from the `Managers, supervisors, foremen and employees, i the rank and file, the appointments being made according to the fitness of the individuals to serve on such Committees. Their duties arc probably sufficiently defined by the titles. They report to the General Manage ment Committee: Office detail, mechanical and building, advertis ing, fire department, repairs, music, advance and educational, cleanliness and sanitation, accident and relief, packing, shipping and receiving. CemattHee System Is Staple This Committee System is so simple, and at the same time so effective, that we have no licsitancy In recommending any one contemplating the adoption of a method of management similar to ours, to work on about the sonic lines as we do. If entered into with a determination to carry out the work as outlined, die plan is so reasonable and practical, so considerate and fair, chat it must be apparent to anyone that nothing can flop its progress, not even the jealousies of individuals, or cheques of workmen, or scarcely any com bination of circumstances you can think of. For any one workman, nr several for that matter, to oppose its onward course, would he like a man with a broom attempting to sweep back an in coming lirte. I repeat, the plan is so considerate and fair that it makes the mass of employees loyal to their employers, whom they know to be their friends, and I cannot emphasize the fact too strongly, that the strength of the structure is based upon a foundation that will never let it topple, or fall. It is the opportunity offered to the individual employee to develops to the fullest extent. It assures him, or her, equal justice and liberty, and co the individual with ambition and brains, an opportunity for advancement. WM Secretary Acme White Lx-J and Color ^orka, Detroit, Michigan.

He Is doing the same thing today, with a groat manyvari ations, and ha will continue to do so with a still greater number ol variations. He is telling not only that his good* are ready for the consumer, but Is telling of their virtues, and Inducing con sumption of his product by every argument at his ;disposal that will create a favorable Impression and bring the desired response in the form of consump* Ton. ft may have been sufficient for the original man- 'feoturar lo announce to his neighbors that his ;Varan were ready, and be satisfied with the sales jhn made based on their wants or requirements. ftWhen the "other fellow" developed, however, he lfMad that aelf prelection required some greater effort on hta pen# It was then he made his first bow to the power to whom, In this day, we make Iall obeisance--theconsumer. He found that it was accessary to gain the good will and conffdtnee el consumers. His rival was making a betterartiste thenhe was--the fact was advertised by tboee who bought or Investigated--and he must improve Ms wares or go out of business. - If the article of hfa rival possessed no advantage fa the way of quality ovar hi* own product, too fact remained that he waa losing custom by sharing the trade with his competitor, and that some ad vantage was offered that Induced trade to drift rway from Mm. for there Isncaeas for every effect. *"d the cause in ibis case may simply have been more courteous treatment.

The affair was not due to the fact that people yet buy the results of brush and U on esnvxs. nor that many of society'* "100" every- | where continue to invest Id rouge. It was because the exterior and interior of all buildings in this enlightened age must be painted for durability as well f; .'

Mr. Pulfer acted as toastmaster, and this ti not the first time he has figured in the news t Louisville during the PM week. As the manager of the credit and purchasing department of the Acme works. Mr. Puirer attended the Credit Men's National Convention 1m Louisville and was unanimously elected vice president for the ensuing year. He proved a happy ''head of the table.*' After the menu had been served. Mr. Putter. as an Introduction to (be talks that were > to follow, made a short speech on the co-operative management lsn In force at the plant of the Acme ?riiitt Lead and Color Work*. He ex plained In detail the composition and duties of their Executive Committee. General Management Committee, Su pervisors Committee. Making Commit tee. Entertainment Committee and He ller Association. He told about tin "atiggesUon'bexea'* which are placed in every department to receive any sug gestions employee might be able to make that would be of Interest or value to the business. 'These suggestion boxes are cleared dally.** said Mr. Fulfer. "and prises are distributed semi-ajULttaUy to the em ploye making the most valuable tag. gestlon*. This not only represents a cash consideration, but likewise, pro vides a means whereby each and every employe's personality may be brought prominently before the management. Through that medium several promo tions have already been made, which, under conditions ordinarily existing In factories, would not have been devel oped." Mr. Palter also explained about the officers and office force nieeiinp il l h o o h *ch day and taking lunch together ih* company providing the necessary place and the service for an attractive noon day lunch. "Teaand coffee are also distributed to all the factory employee." continued the speaker, "and In the near future the feature of providing a lunch will be carried out. so that everybody in the plant will be taken care of.

It is conducted upon very definite principles. We believe thoroughly in the commercial possibilities i-iibjSSi of good goods, and we aim to make better paints, varnishes and enamels than anyone else makes. There were plenty of cheap brands of paint when , the Acme White Lead and Color Works entered . | the field, and it seemed as though the one method 1 that lay open to us was that of making products that could compete with them in price. We be lieved, however, that it was better business policy in compete with them in quality, and to depend upon more effective ways of marketing our prod uct than upon cheaper ways of manufacturing. Good paint is the most economical in the tong run. as is every good commodity. Tilings are always worth what one can afford to pay for ihem--and one can Always afford the best. Con sequently, our products are as high-priced as ' I any in the market, we have persistently main! tained our standards in the knowledge that the [ age of shoddy is passing, depending upon the public to buy the best that we can produce, pay ing die price that we ask, and the results have been simply marvelous. The one essential to marketing good goods is that you convince peo ple of their value. We have done this by active introduction of our goods and by advertising in a modest way. "In advertising Neal's enamels we use general mediums to attract readers and induce them to test our commodity. Just now we are using the Dditvator, Mtmsr/s, MtCtnrPs, Rsvicw of Rcvurju and youth's Companion. Our ada arc keyed, and readers are asked to send ten cents m stamps {or a small can of the enamel. This trial can contains enough to coat a chair or a large picture frame, and so practical a test that try nearly all who send for it ultimately go to local dealers ior larger quantities. This^ method of selling sampies to those who answer ads is becoming genI end, and is much more satisfactory than that of sending expensive booklets upon request I am sure. It sorts out the curious. We send booklets and sample colors with each can, or send them when a request comes without the dime, but the mooey is sent in the vast majority of instances, and we find that readers who are interested in your goods and really desirous of tearing (hem will seldom balk at making a small investment for the purpose. Then, when they purchase the j sample, they do not fed under obligations to you. This line'of advertising has been followed four years, and is so satisfactory that we would very quickly extend it to other products hod we die facilities for keeping op with the demand for them. Our ads are quarter-page, usually, and we run them steadily through nine months of the year.

To suffer front chronic or intermit tent discontent is unwise ami unneces sary--an act or injustice to yourself and your associates. It acts upon your life as a brake to a wheel, ever retarding your progress. It replaces sunshine with gloom, ambition with lethargy, cheerfulness with unhappiness--blights one's whole life. It is unwise, not alone because of the reasons given, but because of the fact that it is absolute ly unnecessary, a voluntary act of the one atllicteij.

Here the women employes leave the factory five minutes before the men, thus being enabled to reach the cars without the inevitable crowding which would otherwise occur. One ol the novel features of their work is the regular summer outing day given by the company to its employes, when all are conveyed by chartered steamer to some point along the river or lak^shore. Everyone^ is allowed lull pay on this occasion. Suggestion boxes are placed throughout the factory, wherein employes may deposit suggestions or complaints in any line of work. T <i Prises are given for the best suggestions sent in. All through the factory an earnest endeavor is made to insure good light and fresh air. Of the many remaining good features, we note the following: A recreation room wherein is a piano, reading table, easy chairs, settees, etc. A free library of 1,800 volumes with the latest magazines on file. A relief association which gives benefits in case ol sickness and a liberal protection lor a very small outlay on the part of its members. Shower baths.
