The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1917-06-21

The Ford Motor Company is one of
the foremost, and largest companies
in the country who has successfully
demonstrated the value of paying
workers a portion of the profits OF
the business, and the Notwithstanding
Club" is based upon the same idea.
The Herald proposes to organize
club of fifteen solicitors who agree to
spend whatever time they have during
the coming six weeks soliciting for
new subscriptions and collecting ar
rearages.
Each member of the club of solicit
tors will be paid salary of Sis, for
whatever time they can devote to the
work, and in addition the Herald of
fers five merchandise and cash bon
uses, the cash equivalent of which is
$625. The members of the profit
Sharing Club" are allowed to compete
for the five big bonuses and the mem
bers producing the greatest number
Of subscription credits will receive the
bonuses as additional pay for their
time.
Earning the bonuses depends abso-
lutely upon the amount of work done
and the solicitors receiving the bon
uses will be paid the SIS salary just
the same as every other member OF
the club.
The Herald has been most liberal in
offering 1917 model Ford touring
car as the first merchandise bonus,
and the person who does sufficient
work to earn the Ford will have re-
ceived excellent pay for six weeks
work. The second bonus offered is in
the form of gold and the amount is
$3.50. 1t would seem that almost ev-
eryone in the vicinity of Sank Cen
ter would be more than pleased to
have such an opportunity, and NO
doubt there will be great many mere
want to be made member of the
"Profit-Sharing Club" than the mem
bership limit of fifteen will permit.
But there are three more bonuses
included in the big pay list for the
Profit Sharing Club. members. The
third cash bonus will be gold $50
bank note, or $50 government lib
erty Loan" bond, if the solicitor who
earns that bonus prefers. The fourth
and fifth bonuses will be $25 and 81,
in gold and they will be paid to the
solicitors who secure the fourth anG
fifth largest number Of profit-shar
ing credits. The club member who
earns the smallest cash bonus will re-
ceive $50 for his or her services in the
campaign. The $50 include the sal
airy of $15 which every solicitor who
continues throughout the campaign
will receive.
The advantage of entering the cam
paign now will be realized by all who
know what good start means in any
business proposition where there is
keen competition. The "Profit- Shar-
ing" campaign is now open and any
lady, or gentleman living in Stearns
Todd, Pope or Douglas counties is
eligible to enter. All that is neces-
