Mr. Chairman: It givee^mc pleasure to We able to be with tonight, and to assist in the de tiqn of this home of the Y Men's Christian Association < town of Spencer. An organ iz working along the lines laid < by the Divine Master and yet side the jurisdiction of all del nations, the Young Men's Chri Association, from its organism has been an effective agency f< propagation of the cardinal p pies of practical Christianity, great aim has been to develop acter while allowing each indi\ jH-rfect freedom as to the cho his creed. This building wi the center from which the in! ces of the Association will ri in Spencer, and, with its pic accomodations for rest and n tion, I am suie that it will att constantly growing mem Ik and that it is destined to be a portant factor in mouldiim character of men of this town ~ interests of whom, as Rresid< the Southern Railway Coinpa have so much at heart. ' I am not only ghul t?? parti< ^ in the drilieation of this huil hut I am ghul to meet so ma my eo-workers in the empl< ^ the Southern Railway, ami to ^ an opportunity to taik with y JS* topic that interest us all? ol W and employes?alike.^ A modern railway is a great. Q in ss institution which vuii on); eeed if it is conducted on Iah principles and if every ollieial 7.. employee devotes all his ener assuring its success. Its organi/ into departments is such as to I ^ all it soperations under the g< supervision of its otlicials, hu magnitude and variety of its , 37 ities are such that immediate < vfi liotl must he delegated to hea< o departments and their suhordit n,* ami us general oniecrs an > to mine into personal contact V many of the men upon whon V success of the enterprise he; y except on occasions such as It is proper, therefore, tli should speak hrielly to you to on matters of special interest t ? I in your relation as employees < " n ipreSs^ i them^?Tinttt"een the railway *1# | puny and its employees. ' highest success of the company E business institution and the ut Hp development of its ability to P| form its important function as a < y mon carrier require that each of and employee should serve i fef elliciently as possible. On BB | other hand, each employee is ii Pi j ested in company attaining y i highest, possible degree of pros ^ i ity, for upon this depends || ability to give permanent emp PI I inent and to pay adequate wage IB I The management of the Soutl IH Railway recognized this identity ! interests. It recognizes that la ! wages of all employees should H reasonable, and the employees, gl I turn, should be guided by con __ , v.xiviwn.<s en reasonableness in p| , conferences affecting wages or 9 | conditions of employment, ffl ; fortunes of each employee a bound up with those of the ci H i |I The company owes to each of I employees full recompense for M ' services in accordance with 9 terms of his employment, a f| every employee, having accept I employment from the compai owes to it his undivided allegiai 9 and his most effective service a fully as do the president and otl ffl officials. 1 As every employee has a vit 1 interest in the success of the roa l he must appreciate the importan ? not only to the railway compai ' hut so himself, of the devotion v his energies to a thorough undc I ; standing of his duties and to tl | proper performance of them, wha j | ever they may be. The duties of , a flagman at a street crossing ai 1 just as important in his sphere i i are the duties of the president i his. The .... . mi nncy oi the roa depenels ujxiii tlx- efficiency of indi vielnals, eaeh in his own capacity The re must he distribution of sec vices and of responsibilities anion the president, the executive officer i and tint employees in all de-part ments, and each must pe-rfeirin hi: , own duties. The president can ne nie>re- perform ve>ur duties than yoi _ can do his, and unle-ss the work e>f individuals in all departine-nts is perforine-el preiperly, successful administration is impossible. The e-IHe-iene-y of individual effort will avail little-, however, without intellige-nt aelministration and theI eo-orelination e?f the work of all , departments. In other words, co^ f NLEY operation throughout the w organization is of supreme Rail- P?r*an(T its success, for, if M p have this, we shall have indivl ^ loyalty and earnestness of efl DWial In eVcry <lepartment there must ilding what I may term intelligent t work?each individual co-opera with every other for the l>est eral results.

In all matters incidi ,in to the purchase and delivery wbl- transportation the buyer should a" i treated with consideration a courtesy by every official and e 1 be | ployee of the road with whom ar,; conies into contact. Too oft ,in; when the buyer of transportation transacting business w ith the ro 'V1 or is making inquiries as to t bis delivery of transportation that tb?', has Uiught or as to the perfori n(11 ance of service for which he h XM' paid there is a failure to rccogni his interest in the matter, and 1 U'H j is treated with eurtness and ii as difference. Every such transacts l('r : has two sides and the side of tl shipper or traveler is just as in j portant to him as the side of tl railway is to it. For the very ref ce! son that the buyer of transports, Wltion is often forced to deal with | particular seller it is importar r* j that he should be treated with eve more consideration than is th buyer of other commodities wh a csin select the seller with whom h r*' may wish to do business and win can transfer his patronage to a rivn n :t - u uc is not satisfied. The Southeri V i Railway employee who comes inb l" contact with the public can liest i bring himself to the favorabh ! notice of the management by hav^ ing a record free from well-founded s ; complaints as to his treatment of those transacting business with the s road. * Not only is the efficiency and at1 tention b> the interests of the public ' and of the railway company to the ' advantage of the. employee in his present sphere of duties, but it has a most important bearing on his j future prospect as well.
