lies, the expense to be borne by the
company without any expense to
those benefited. The Lalancec-Gros
jean Manufacturing Company was
the first large Industrial plant se
cured for Harrisburg by the original
Board of Trade, and the free insur
ance to be inaugurated here has been
tried out with success at the Wood
haven plant of the company.
The protection is in''addition to
any compensation to which employes
might be entitled under the work
men's compensation act.
llcncHts tip to sl,ooo
The plan insures all employes who
have been in th e service of the com
pany for three months or more, and
will take effect January 1, 1919. The
I death benefits ar e S6OO, for more
than one year in the service, S6OO,
and SIOO for each additional year of
service to the maximum amount of
SI,OOO.
Th e announcement to the em
ployes this morning was made by
John Grey, manager of the Harris
burg branch of the company. Pre
vious to the meeting this morning
in front of the mill office, notices
had been posted about the plant re
questing that all employes without
exception meet at the specified time,
and that an important announce
ment htat would directly affect the
future welfare of all employes and
their families would be made. Fol
lowing the posting of the notices,
speculation as to the nature of the
announcement was rife among the
men at the plant. All varieties of
theories were advanced as to just
what was in stor e for each employe,
but none guessed tho real surprise
that was coming.
Good Feeling
In concluding the announcement,
Manager Grey expressed the hope
that the year 1919 would further •
cement the good feeling between th e I
company and its employes. The an- ;
nouncement was greeted with ap- j
plausc from tho men. Then each !
man who had been in the service of
the Harrisburg plant for three
months or more, was handed or large j
decorated Christmas greeting folder
containing an application blank and I
greetings signed by J. H. Wnlbridge, I
president of the company. A reso
lution of thanks to the company and
its president for their interest in the
Harrisburg employes, was drawn up
and adopted by the men present.
The motion for the thanks resolu
tion was made by Olfe Wagner, a
roller and one of the veterans of the
Harrisburg mill, and was seconded
by C. E. Land is, the cashier of the
local brancji of the company. At
this evening's meeting of tli e La
lance-Grosjean's Employes' Bene
ficial Society, in West End hall, 1930
Wood street, th e annual dividend
will be paid out to the membership.
Although this organization was hard
hit by the Influenza epidemic, it lias
not failed to return to the tnembers
a portion of the dues paid during
the year.
