In the past few months, she

known as The Land.
She plans to visit in Lon

months, leaving in early Sep
TENDER and remaining there
through Christmas.
Mrs. Wing submitted her
resignation in a letter to Mrs

sales embodies the success
story of Miss Catherine l..
O'Brien.
During the depression we
had to be shrewd to get by.
We had to get our moneys
worth" said this motherly
looking president of a company
that is unique because its sales
staff is composed 80 per cent
of women.
Miss O'Brien is here for a
meeting at the Sheraton-Park
Hotel of unit managers of the
Stanley Home Products Com
pany of Westfield Mass
which she co-founded Is years
ago with the late Frank STAN
ley Beverldge.
Mr.. Beverldge was former
vice president of a nationally
known brush firm and Miss
O'Brien was his secretary.
They both decided that house
hold chemicals would bring a
better sales turnover than
brushes which last a lifetime.
A tobacco shed served as the
first plant, and soon Miss
OBrien found herself a COM
bination assembly line worker,
production manager and ac-
countant and treasurer for the
young firm.

of humor and of proportion

She has made duty challenging

SUCCESS RECIPE
Woman Executive Says
Make Do, Do Without

When Miss O'Brien
gives a speech on her many
field trips to visit the COM
pany's farflung units prod
ucts are sold in Hawaii and
Alaska as we'll as the 48
States she is fond of quoting
the old New England saying:
Eat it up, wear it out. make
it do, do without" to illustrate
why the company is doing so
well.
Perhaps due to the memory
of those depression days the
determining factor in Miss
O'Brien's thinking is thrift.
Expansion programs are
never undertaken until there
are enough profits to plough
back into the company. She's
proud of the fact that we've
never used capital and we
don't owe anyone
The five-feet tall executive
gives more than equal credit
to her women sales representa-
tives for the success she has
achieved.
Most of them are house
wives who want to make a
little extra money either to
help their families or to fill
spare time.
The first year, Miss O'Brien
engaged women sales rep
reSentatives, sales showed an
increase of 1863 per cent. That
convinced her that women
are better statesmen than
men"
And just to keep her hand
in, this company executive
goes out one month of the
year and does some door-to-
door selling herself.
