nounced at Banquet Arouses
Interest Among Employes
Store owners and employes alike are
diBCUssinK today tho new plan of co
operation which has been introduced
among the 4000 members of the Glmbel
store family, which was announced at
the nunivcrsary banquet on Saturduy

all looking to tho future advancement of
the worker nnd tho Increase In his per
sonal happlnciw ns well ns his ef
ficiency in business, contain elcmente
coiiflderably mora far-reaching than
most systeina hitherto evolved.
In announcing the establishment of
the scheme, Bopert II, Preston, man
ager of tho Philadelphia store, until :
"Wq realise what the lack of houses
iu Philadelphia means to our employes.
Perhaps the biggest part of this plan Is
to take euro at this situation for our
people. When employes are confronted
with the alternative of vacating their
hqmes o buring them money will be
loaned them to purchase their home..
"The future, leaders of our orgnni
tatiun must cotne from the youth of our
ranks. To stimulate ambition and en
courago talent, fifty ucholnrshlps will be
placed nt the successful employes'
cholco, cither at Teraplo University, the
Philadelphia Textile School or the
wnarum bcuooi nt ino university 01
Pennsylvania. Mvcry employe is eligible
for these scholarships, the winner each
year to be picked from the previous
twelve months' record of productive
efficiency,
"Pensions ore. to bo nt the following
rato nnd based upon the average salury
earnings for tho previous ten years:
Thirty-live per cent for employes hav
ing served twenty -Ave yeurs, 40 per
cent nftcr thirty years, 4(i per cent
after thirty-rive years and 50 per cent
after forty years.
"Sufficient funds are being added to
tho Present fnml whlrli will Increase
tho weekly nllowanco for sick b?ncflt
by nt least 40 por cent.
Besides tho usual two weeks summer
vacation with full pay for employe who
linvo served more than two years, mem
bers of the Quarter-Century Club will
receive nn nddUionnl week in the winter.
For mothers wlio nrc carrying the wage
earner's, burden, In nddition to tha ir
renJnreablo mother's care, the plan pro
vides free vacations, not just n stay-ot-home
vacation, but n real rest, with
money enough to take all the children
awny so that thero shall bo no worryr-'
no anxiety to mac tho full benefit of
tho vacation.
"And for any employe, In case, of
emergency, thero will ho nvallablo Uie
same loan fund, established ten years
no, to protect employes from 'loan
sharks.' No security and no interest
will be necessary to get a Joan,"
"Wo ore Just trying to put a heart
in business," was the tere way Jacob

Furniture Values That Help
Thousands to Increase the
Comforts of the Winter Home
Right in line with the economical trend of the times, when the great
Furniture values of this wonderful Autumn Exhibit are more convincing than
words, we invito comparisons with the thousands of Suites and Pieces we are
offering at prices that are as low as it is possible for Furniture of high quality
to be, anywhere.
The great things we have been doing in the Furniture world for nearly
forty years speak with more emphasis ana economy now, when wo are hewing
the margin of profit closer to the costs of production, than at any time since the
war began. Doing more, in fact, than our full share in the country-wide effort
to bring Furniture costs down to figures that make living easier and homes
happier.
There is additional proof of this in the thousands of dollars'
worth of Suites and Pieces special lots coming- to us unsolicited
from leading man
ufacturers in need
of ready money
that are marked
still lower than the
low prices that
have advanced
this Great Store to
its commanding
position in the
Furniture World.
