Wwm1 % Public relations is a vitally important part of business today. Good public relations makes friends for the company. It is more than merely making the company and its products known. Good publicrelations conveys to the people who have contacts ol any kind with the company an appreciation of the company's character ? its attitudes. integrity, and its problems in operating as an asset to the community. Good public relations not only helps to increase sales, but also to establish the kind of faith in the company that forms a foundation for growth and expansion and future job security. :%!WUBZL MARC1 CLINTON Andrew Baggett?Carding William Bull?Carding Wesley E.

Everybody in the company, in fact, is part of public relations. Each piece of quality work turned out ... every letter typed, every phone call handled . . . every meeting with plant visitors . . . has its effect on public relations. Whenever you speak, write, or act as a company employee ?whether the contact is persona! or indirect?you influence the public's opinion of the company. To those who meet you, or know your work, you are the company. 1959 f MILLS Ivy L. Longshore?Weaving Barth F.

'Vr "Has your husband any hobbies?" asked the new neighbor who was calling. "No," said Mrs. Newlywed. 'He has rheumatism a good deal and shingles now and then, but he ain't never had no hobbies." Thic hncKnnrl'c nlirfV?l ic typical of many Americans who, through the evolution of labor, have been given many hours of free time which are without definite direction. With the decrease in the length of the work day and week, the problem arises of how to occupy themselves to advantage during these times of leisures. The hobbv. at least in part, is the answer, for it provides something in which you can submerge yourself completely, independently of your job. If you don't have a hobby, a few pointers in outline form may* help you in selecting one. FOLLOW YOUR OWN INCLINATIONS. Don't let a friend "sell" you a hobbv which doesn't fit your particular need. Undoubtedly the most famous hobbyist of to day is Winston Churchill, who several years ago took up painting for his own personal pleasure. To the amazement of himself and friends, a number of his pictures were of such outstanding oualitv that they found places in the great salons of Paris and other art centers. TRY HARD TO GIVE IT A PERSONAL TWIST. Don't be afraid to create a foolish one of your own. There is simplv no accounting for the strange choice of hobby material made by some individuals. One of the Rothehild brothers spent tnousands on the collecion of various kinds of fleas. Shelley, the groat English poet, spent his leisure moments sailing tov boats in the Sernentino of London. BE SURE YOU HAVE A YEARROUND HOBBY. Have one which you can follow in anv season, or if it's fishing, golf or some other sport, decolor) another iO take up the slack in the off season. YOIT CON ADOPT A HOBBY AT ANY AGE. All of us recall what a wonderful time we had filling our pockets with odds and ends, and having a great interest in tinkering. We were expected to outgrow this "collecting" nature by the time we were of high school age.

The collecting of postage stamps will teach you something of art, printing, history, and even politics. Start a garden and you are bound to learn something about the chemistry of the soil, about botany, about the evolution of plant life, about plant enemies and how to fight them. Make a few wooden gadgets and you are aware of a new beauty about you in the common sights you once viewed with unseeing eyes. ' FIND A HOBBY THAT SUITS YOUR INCOME. Some people still regard hobbies as the accompaniments of wealth. This is not true as they may be expensive or inexpensive, just as one chooses. The majority of collectors soon learn that the r unique and rare things of f, other days are beyond their f* means, and therefore become interested in items of their c generation, in most cases art- s icles of little value at the ii moment. And so toothpicks, c snuff boxes, wishbones, tomb- y stone epitaphs, and a host of n queer objects have come to be collectors' items.
