\ workers in the Wilson
& Co. plants in Chicago and
in ten other cities are an
American loving group Of
citizens with a genuine re-
gard for American institu-
tons and customs.

workers came to America
from foreign countries and
found here an opportunity
to enjoy liberty Of thought
and action-to educate
their children - to acquire
comfortable homes-and to
live under conditions that
bring them happiness and
prosperity.
It will astonish you to
learn, as it did me, that the
workers in the Chica 60
plant alone saved 81, 100000
from the first Of May until
the end Of December, 1918.
This means that every
worker averaged a saving Of
over S226 during this
period, and they are saw
ing at the same ratio during
1919.
Furthermore, these Wilson
workers throughout the
country are buying 81, Co.,
600 of Victory Liberty
Bonds.

Furthermore, the Wilson & Co plan
Of service 10 their workers includes
definite and helpful suggestions as to
