One Vivid Sidelight

One vivid sidelight on the re-
doubled interest and efforts OF
workers is furnished by happen
ings in plants having suggestion
boxes. Far more suggestions have
been forthcoming since Pearl Har.
Dor. Specific cases:
One large company, Puifrnans
Standard Car Manufacturing,
states that. in the three months
following December /. il received
as many suggestions as were ten.
dered during the whole OF 1910.
Not only so, but the suggestions
were unprecedentedly helpful
Consequently. a greater sum than
ever before was distributed.
Another enterprise. Bausch d
Lomb (which last year earned the
prize Navy e., reports that Its
men have proffered greater
number Of suggestions, Of greater
merit. than in its long history. For
one idea, Karl kraemer t3D, has
been presented with $1,000 and
has been promoted from tse ranks
to an assistant foremanship. He
showed how production of binocu-
lars. for which the navy has been
appealing 10 the public. could be
speeded up. The unique interest
exhibited has inspired the COM
pany 10 offer double awards" for
suggestions during what IL has
termed Macarthur Month" q
total of 5000 10 be distributed.
General Electric last year paid
employees $95. 203 for 12,453 sug.
gestions adopted from a total OF
40.s34 submitted.
One Westinghouse ploye.
John F. Carlson. has had no fewer
than l55 suggestions accepted
since he joined the company.
IT'S Different Today
After ALL highly intelligent men
engaged on a job are more likely
than any one else TO be able 20
figure out improved production
methods. Too often they have
not received adequate inducement
IN don their thinking caps and TO
make available the fruits Of their
ingenious thinking.
'Tis different today. Not only,
are more companies. big and
little, enlisting the help of their
workers 10 expedite output by Of
fering rewards, but many wage
earners have been prompted to
contribute useful ideas from
purely patriotic motives.
Donald NJ. Nelson's recommen-
dation that combined management
and labor committees be organ
lied in war plants is already
bearing valuable fruit, not only in
eliciting labor-saving suggestions.
but in intensifying the -eagerness
of workers TO eclipse all former
output records.
Such facts are not calculated
to provide comfort for Hitler.

than the dominion, the plan
might be even more suitable for
this country.
f. G. Burton, administrator Of
retail trade on the Canadian
wartime prices and trade board,
told me:
81 am sure that, although we
have many complicated situa-
tions TO solve, the overall price
ceiling Is working out better
than most of us could have
hoped. We all feel that the
most difficult period lies ahead ;
nevertheless, 1 do not believe
that II we were starting out all
over again, we should change
our method Of approach to this
very complicated problem"

Hot Lunch Program.

The Sturgeon Lake school started its
not lunch program recently with Ellis
Whiting as cook in charge, under the
supervision of Mrs. Ann Okerberg of Mi
laca, who has charge of all hot lunches
in this county.
The hot lunch program is a WPA pro-
Ject and is supervised according to rules
and regulations which carry a high STAN
dard of nutrition, sanitation and economy
of operation.
A cooking institute held recently at
county, was conducted by Mrs. Ann Oker-
as it dealt with the many duties and
problems of those in charge of the school
lunch program.
Ellis Whiting, Sturgeon Lake: Chas
Thompson and Mrs. Frank Laughenburg,
Willow River: Mrs Petee, Finlayson, and
Mrs. Emil Glaser, Sandstone, were among
those at the meeting both days.
At Sturgeon Lake the county sponsors
the school district and PIT. A. are giving
the program fine support. AS there was
no garden last year, it is expected that
a small fee will be collected from each
child to help make up what is needed.
The hot lunch calls for at least one
hot dish each day. and is made up so that
it is nouriShing and substantial. The
new school building is equipped with
trio stove. dish cupboard and work table.
