THE >. work'zO^\ PROFITWjJl/ THE HARDER PROFIT WORKS FOR YOU "Hear a' out the fire in the company warehouse. Toe5 I understand half the stuff we stored there was destroyed." "Tough luck," replied Joe. "But I don't own the company. I just work here." Sound familiar? Unfortunately, yes. So often the employee thinks, "I don't own the company." With a little more thought however, he would realize that he does own the company. It is his! From that company he earns his bread...and cake too. When times are good for the company, times are good for him. Should the company lose money, he too must lose money. And if the company goes out of I : t-- r uusuiess, ne musi una a new company from which to earn his bread and cake. The moral is quite obvious. As an employee, you are part of the company, and along with your fellow employees, you own part of the company. Take care of it and it will take care of you. Abuse your privilege of ownership, waste time and muiviidis, cinw yuu may lose what you have. So think about your job as an investment. And make it pay off in rich dividends by giving that job every ounce of know-how you've got. Keep your company strong. After all. part of it is yours. And if you don't believe that, you don't deserve a good job. TIREMENTS ?ss - Windsor n Mills personalities were hon;s as they retired recently.

H-A^B/ i j HH jSy^ K? w tOTHKwM GOOD HOT TCFK" FFPITVm All \J Good housekeeping! You hear about it at home and at work. Have you ever wondered why all the fuss about good housekeeping? One would think that the stressing of good housekeeping has already lived a long and useful life and is, therefore, no longer needed, or that industry has now outgrown the need for this special emphasis. Nothing, however, could be father from the truth. Good housekeeping still plays a vital role in the accident prevention efforts of industry. Human h*?incr? mionTiwtiarn whether at home or at work, have a tendency to trip over loose objects on floors and stairs, to slip and fall on wet or greasy surfaces, to bump into projecting and poorly placed equipment, and to be in the right place at the right time to be hit bv a falling object. The advantages of good housekeeping are rather obvious in the fire prevention effort. A serious fire can put a firm out of business indefinitely: even so-called "minor" fires can cause major interruptions in operations. Housekeeping means more than just cleanliness. A house is in order when there are no unnecessary things about and when those things that are necessary are in their proper place. Good housekeeping is absolutely essential to a successful accident prevention program. Let's all work toward a common goal: to reduce all types of accidents in an effort to wipe out needless human suffering and loss of life. limb, and property. APRIL, 1967 How To Follow The Interstate Here's something you might like to clip and carry in your glove compartment: ROAD NUMBERING SYSTEM As you travel the interstate highways, remember there is a definite system in the numbering of the routes. This can be a help in orienting yourself as you travel along. The system works like this: The north-south routes bear odd numbers. The east-west X t- ? r? ? routes nave even numoers. rcouies with one or two digits are through routes. Routes with three numbers, when the first number is even, are routes through or around citiesusually beltways. When the first number is odd in a threedigit route, it designates a spur route into the city. Low number interstate highways running north and south begin in the west and proceed across the country with gradually increasing numbers. For the east-west interstate highways, the low numbers are in the south, the higher numbers in the north. i_A t f S "WHO'S WHOSE" j Births Lydia Cloth Johnnie Wesley Son, February 11 Lydia Shop Moses Fleming Son, February 16 Plant No. 2 Weaving Peggy Mundy Son, February 2 riant :\o. 'i spooling Carl D. Craine Son. February 23 And There Was More Light The strangers met in a crowded hotel. They were informed that it was necessary for them to share a room for the night They agreed. One of the strangers requested that the light in the room be left on just a bit longer. Me wanted to finish reading a piece in the Bible. Tin* other stranger asked that he read it aloud. So did J. 11. Nicholson and S. K. Mill meet. And from that meeting came an idea: Why not place Bibles in hotel rooms throughout the land? Thus, with an idea to answer a need, the Society of Gideons was born and millions of Bibles have been placed in hotels, motels, prisons, and hospitals.
