DEAR FOLKS

- the Wilson & Co. plants in
| Chicago and in ten other cities
are an American loving group of
citizens with a genuine regard for
American institutions and customs.
A great many of these workers
came to America from foreign
countries and found here an op-
portunity to enjoy liberty of
thought and action-to educate
their children-to acquire COM
Itortable homes-and to live un-
der conditions that bring them
happiness and prosperity.
II VIII astonish you to learn, as
1T did me, that the workers in the
Chlcago plant alone saved ST.
100000 from the first of Nav
until the end of December, 1918.
MS means that every worker
averaged a saving of over S226
during this period-and they are
saving at the same ratio during
1919.
Furthermore, these Wilson work
erS throughout the country are
buying $1,OOO,0OO Of Victory
Liberty Bonds.
Does this not represent substan.
tlal citizenship?
Does it not also Indicate that
Wilson & Co. are standing by
their workers in a helpful, prac.
teal way?
There is another angle about tbI. ibi,s
that want to bring to your attention.
nc workers are engaged in producins
Pure Foods. They buy The foods tbey
produce for use in their own homes
They have learned how to use these
foods in an economical way.
They know that Good, Wholesome.
Honest Food, bought and used careful
", is more sustaining. more nourlshing.
more economical, than the buying and
using OF Indifferent foods.
Quality in food counts for far more
than Quantity.
Workers are enabled to buy the foods
they produce at the retail stores main
'ained In connection with the Wilson
& Co. plant in Chicago.
They buy them at cost, plus the ex-
pense incurred in maintaining a sales
force and setting apart space for the
purpose in tho main building, which,
stands at the entrance to the plant.
The workers are not allowed 10 run
bills or TO buy extravagantIy. They
are advised TO buy only enough 10 nour-

healthy manner-to Mt them for their
work.
Furthermore, the Wilson & Co. plan OF
service 10 their workers includes def
mite and helpful suggestions as TO how
they can use the foods they produce in
The most intelligent and most econom-
lcal way.
These suggestions come from the Do
