Quint A Cumin:cis Sionr.—Any one happen
ing,intothe fifth story of Oak Ball last Monday morn
ing, at about eight o'clock. would have looked upon a
strange steno; There; at `-along table. - extending
across the room, were five doctors, with all thit para.
phertialia of their profession, and, attending them,
as many clerks With pen in hand busily at work on a
pile of papetwppread out before them. About this
group were gathered * host of men, the emPlovtia of
the establishment; some hundred or more: in nuMber.
with Mr. Wanamaker himself in their midst. They
were of all ages and sizes, from little Milton,
Wanamaker 'a messenger, up so gray-haired old men
already, past three score. It was evident enough that
all were interested.in what was transacting, and their
smiling faces and frequent laughter showed that ,they
were not more interested than Pleased. '
The impresaion most apt to be given at first sight
was that we were back again in war times, and that
all these were volunteers eager to enter the service,
and now being examined as to their physical fitness by
the Board of Medical Examiners. And the first Inti
mation of the real character of tbe business came
from seeing Mr. C. B. McLean, the manager far "The
American Life Insurance Company," busy amon g th e
men,eiidently superintending "aJob," while Mr. John
S. Wilson, the Company's enterprising Secretary and
Treasurer, smiled upon thescene with evident statis
t-fiction.
" WO this chre,tho explanation of the scene was easy
enough. Christmas is at hand, and it is the habit of
wanamsher & Brown to make Christmas presents to
their employes. Casting about for something that
would be of real Value and eatisfaetion to the Men, Mr.
Wanamaker, with his usual, practical-appreciation of
thar want?, had hit upon a policy of Life Instirance is
"The American" of this city, as the very best gift that
he could place in their t ands.
he idea was a most excellent one, and was acted
upon immediately. A single conference with Mr.
McLean, on Saturday last, sufficed for the full ma
turing of the arrangement of the plan, nd on Monday
morning, as We have seen. "The American" took fall
poesersion of the immense clothing house at Sixth and
Market streets, and in the space of six hours had made
out •One Hundred and Thirty-three applications. for
amounts ranging from one thousand to fifteen thou
sand dollars each. and amounting In all to nearly Two
Hundred. 'Ttionsturd "Dams.
Oa these applications policies were immediately
made out, the Premiums paid by the firm, and cm
Chrlatmas day each ealesmtur, cutte.r and tailor in the
employ of our "Largest Clothing Rouse" will have on
his life an insurance of at least one thousand dollars;
a sure • provision •against his family being left, In any
event, entirely destitute. .
It took a generous heart to conceive the gigantic
beriefaction, and a will accustomed to prompt and re
solute action to execute it ;fur any one at all aztquamted
with the rates of Life Insurance knows that it is no
trifle to • assume it one jump the premiums of nearly
Two Rundred Thousand Rollers. --
These policies'are all non-forfeitable after two or
4' three payments, and eo very soon assume a real
money value; but, so far as that is concerned, Mr.
Wanamaker 1111 already negotiating with "The Ameri
can" to assume himself the renewal of all these poli
cies for eo long as the men may continue in his em
ploy.
It was a grand'day's work for "The American," a
pleasing surnriee and welcome present to the men,and
a noble deed on the part or Mr. Wanamaker, worthy
the imitation of other of our leading and. most enter
prising business houses. .
