here year and less than two years
will be entitled to one weeks vaca-
ton with pay. Employees who have
been here to years more Will be en-
titled to two weeks vacation with pay
Leave of absence will be granted at
any time between April 1st. and Sep
TENDER 1st.''
This announcement which appears on
the bulletin blackboard in the Gibson
hundred clerks all of who will be en-
titled to either week or two weeks
vacation with pay.
That this consideration on the part
of the company Is appreciated goes
without saying. The custom is not new
but the employees were doing consid-
cradle guessing before the announce
ment. was made as to just what the
rule would be this year. Not only this
but the officials have provided passes
for their employees where possible and
this of course makes the vacation
doubly worth while.
Both employer and employees can
testify from past experience that the
expense of a vacation for the clerks
is after all a god investment. While
a week or two Of time Is lost, mind
and body are refreshed and strength
ened for a new years work and both
parties are the winners in the long
run.
