Ourselves

Ebert Hubbard in his Little
Journey to Bamberger's" says:
Business has gotten to a
point now where one-man power
is eliminated. The business of a
big business man is to get others
to do his work-to infuse them
with his own ideals, aspirations
and ambitions. The people in
Bamberger's who make UP the
great Bamberger Family stand
together as a unit. believe il
is a fact that there is less dis
cord, less wrangle, feud and more
harmony, kindness and love in
this institution than in any one
store, perhaps, that could pos
sbly be named anywhere
II is true, the great Bamberger
family DOES stand together.
The French call it esprit de corps
we call il LOYALTY. There is
no friction or discomfort at this
store. Everyone works. Every
one is HAPPY.
