T HINGS run in Cycles oH
Six in the Wilson & Coz
organization.
Six" plays an important part ir6
the business.
There are six letters in the word
WILSON. There are six vices
presidents-hrst aids to Mr.l
Wilson. That started the "Six
idea three years ago this month";
when Mr.. Wilson gave his name
and himself to the business. The
workers considered it a good
omen.
And one of the first things doneA
after Mr.. Wilson took hold was
to adopt a slogan that would
mean something and that would,
keep everybody on their toes tod
live up to it. The slogan select-4
ed was:
The Wilson Label Protects
Your Table"
Please note that there are six.
words i'll this slogan. They are
very important words.
The next thing on the program
was to develop a fine working
spirit in the organization i'll
which all should take part -
workers and officials.
That was done at once. Please
note that there are six letters in
the word spirit"
Now you have had six letters from
me thus far in which / have dwelt
mainly on the spirit that exists in
the Wilson & Company organization.
! think / have proved to you that
the real foundation of successful
business must be built on the heart,
the happiness, the loyalty, the in
tegrity, the enthusiasm and the
pride of it's workers-coupled with
the honest appreciation, recognition
and cooperation of the head of the
business and his official family.
The foundation of the Wilson & Co.
business is built on these six princi-
pies, and that is why its slogan, '"The
Wilson Label Protects Your Table"
means so much to the peoples of
the world.
What would this slogan amount to
If it did not have back of it the hon
est and sincere efforts of the official
family and its twenty-five thousand
loyal, earnest workers?
1t would be a scrap of paper
only-and the world has had
enough of scraps of paper"
People want the real thing now.
In food products they are get
ing it under the Wilson label.
am starting another series of six
etters to-day in which 1 will treat
IN other angles of the Wilson & Co.
l propose to stick to the
SIX idea. Please note that the
word "angles" also consists of six
etters.
What l mean by "angles" is this:
propose to show you, for instance,
hat the workers consider that their
,wn honor is involved in producing
oodstuffS that will justify the Com
,any's Slogan-which should be very
to you when it comes to
,uying Wilson & Co. products.
think it is great, myself. that the
ood, pure things to eat supplied by
wilson & Co. are backed up in their
reduction by twenty-five thousand
workers. who recognize their indi-
idual responsibility and who would
ot, under any circumstances, either
,illfully or deliberately take part in
ending out to their fellow human
eings in all parts of the world, im-
erfect or impure food products.
hey would not have it on their con-
ciences to do such a thing, and L
now, for I have talked with hun
reds of them-many in every de-
artment of the business-and they
re imbued with the spirit to give
} the Company all they have of
kill and care and loyalty and hon
r. Take as an illustration what a
.ussian workman employed in the
ausage Department said to me. L
oticed his enthusiasm and the
witness and skill with which he
'orked and asked him why he was
} interested.
"Oh, like to help make good things
