DEAR FOLKS:
THE workman I met
the oftenest at the
Wilson & Co. plant,
Chicago, vas the day
watchman. He is the Sen
tinel on fcuard and he. is
an active, intelligent, happy
and proud Sentinel. Do'
you know why? I'll tell
you.
Up to three years ago, this
watchman looked upon
himself as a mere machine.
He felt that he occupied a
menial position because he
'was treated as a menial!
Nobody apparently thought
him worth while. Every
day was the same to him.
Nothing happened between
sunrise and sunset to -relieve
the monotony of his
life. He was discouraged
as most workers are who do
not get kind words or at
tention. i
But a new hold on life came to
,him three years ago this month
and it was all brought about?
through a little act of kindness..
My, How a small courtesy
clmnges things for all of ite ! It
dispels clouds and floods, our
pathway with sunlight. Let me
tell ou what the watchman
told me.
"The day that Mr. Wilson came
I here to take charge of the busi
i ness which had been given his
name, what do you suppose was
the first thing he did? Why he
came to my shanty, shook
'hands with me and said, 'John,
I want you to know that I think
!you are holding a very impor
I taut position.) I look to you to
i watch things very carefully.
So much depends on you. If
1 you will put your heart in your
i work and help me all you can
I will be very grateful. From
i now on you 'are going to be a.
right arm to this business. I
' need your help to make it a
i success. I hope we will be good',
: friend. What do you say?'
And, of course, I said, 'I'll help,
and I thank you so much forf
I thinking that I can hefp you.f
1 From that time on, I have been'
' very happy. I am very proud ,
j of the position I hold. Mr. Wil
son always speaks to me and,
shows that he likes me. I am
' incf t-Vio uvorQiTO Vinmnn liolrin
and when a man respects me
and treats me right, it makes
an awful lot of difference in my
view-point of life. I feel that
I am now a real man doing
work that is necessary and
helpful."
John and 1 got along fina to
gether during my daily visits to
Wilson & Company plant cover
ing a period of five weeks. We'
had many a chummy chat. He'
introduced me to many of the
workers, all of'whom respect
him. He dresses in a blue uni
form and stands guard with as
much pride as the Commander
of a U. S. Warship stands on
the bridge of his ship. This is',
the sort of spirit that .makes!
a business prosper.
Another worker this one a .youngi
woman told me that the courfesyj
shown th.e watchman oy air. wnson
was witnessed by hundreds of woik-'
eis who were standing at the win-f
dows of the big office building
watching for his coming. She said:
"I can't describe to you the wave of
satisfaction that immediately struck
us all. Instantly the word went all
through the planf; that Mr. Wilson's,
fnst act was to visit the watchman,
and the cry went up in all depart. Q
ments: 'A real man-has come to lead
us; now we can put heart in our I
work; now we are sure of apprecia- i
tion; nowve know we will get a
square deal.'' You have no idea what
a change was brought about at once.
We went to our work with lighter
hearts than we had ever had. Wo
went to our work with the feeling
hat we must do it well from then
in and we have been doing it well
or since. Mr. Wilson visited all
of us later on and let us know in his
Uindlv way that he wanted us to
help him and that he would appre
ciate it very much if we gave him
our loyalty and enthusiasm. It 'was'
new to us to be talked to in- thli
fripn4lv way. You can imagine how
happy it made us all feel."
Don't tell me that little things do
not onake up the sum of life, for'
they do. Don't you recall the old
saying, "Little things, aye little
things make up the sum of life; a
word, a look, a single tone may lead
to calm or strife."
The words, the looks, the tones in,
Wilson & Co. plant lead to calm and
Imnniness. In mv next letter which
will appear in this newspaper one
wpk from today. I'll tell you other
I things that prove, how Heart In workf
j lends to contentment and suciejs. t
Sincerely, William C. Freeman?
