SOAP KING DIES
Continued from Pace One)

turer had taken definite shape in his
mind, and soon he had a little fac
tory of his own. His romantic rise
dated from that moment. 1t was a
fight, and hard one, to make for
tune smile, but gradually she did.
and before many years had passed
his wealth had grown to such pro-
portions that 1t actually disturbed
him.
Part Of it was spent in creating
his model works and model town of
Port Sunlight. With its quaint old
English style houses, red tiled roofs
and latticed windows, its gardens
and tree-lined streets, Port Sunlight
is one of the marvels of industrial
England. The houses are rented to
employees of the factory for ~ q
month.
Lord Leverhulme was the first
great British employer to introduce
prof1t-sharing schemes and indus
trial co-partnership. The only
question of success, he frequently
said, is "Will you pay the price of
self -sacrifice?" William Lever was q
model for the question.
He favored a six hour working
day for his employees, but never
worked less than 16 hours a day
himself. He was often described as
q human dynamo-intense, high
powered, swift-moving and direct.
He had a thorough grasp OF princi-
pies, and with it a complete mastery
of detail. He was an organizer with
all the ruthlessness that goes with
organization, yet he was gentle and
kindly.
His system Of co-partnership was
started in 1901, and never has been
changed.
"Work six hours a day at your
maximum power of production" he
would say to his employees. study and
improve yourselves two hours a day,
and I can afford to pay you for
eight hours of work."
An interesting sidelight on the
character of Lord I.everhulme de-
veloped in 1921, when he employed
famous artist to paint his portrait.
The completed canvas was too large
for a safe in which Leverhulme
wished to deposit 1t. so he cut out the
head and discarded the rest Of the
painting. The artist brought suit,
contending that the canvas should
not have been mutilated without his
consent, while are students all over
the world denounced the rich manu-
facturer for his action in carving up
art like leg of mutton"
Lord Leverhulme was born in 1851,
at Bolton. Lancashire, and in 1874
married Elizabeth Hume, who died
in 1913. They had one son. w. H.
Lever, who is the only heir to his
fathers vast fortune--Lord Lever
hume was elevated to the peerage in
1917. taking his own name combined
with the maiden name Of his wife.
