DEAR F: I HOPE you will have as | pleasant an outing this summer as the 1,400 women who work in the i Wilson & Co. plant, Chi cago, are now enjoying. These 1,400 women, some of whom arc married andj are mothers of young j babies (the babies are al- j lowed to go with their j mothers), are sent to Camp Wilsonia, located about fifty miles from Chicago on Lake Michigan in the fa mous sand dunes section of Indiana — Where they can bathe at will— Where they sleep on wide, scr'eened-in porches that are con nected with two large dormitories constructed especially for them — where they can roam through i grounds that are beautiful with I wonderful foliage and flowers — i where they dine on the fat of the land—eating Wilson & Oo.'s Certified Food Products— where they have a royal rest and good time— ALL WITHOUT ONE CENT OF EXPENSE TO THEM SELVES— and, in addition, they receive pay whiie away. |This is not charity. It is | merely a mark of apprecia j tion and consideration on i the part,of their employer, j Wilson & Co., who believes I that the health and happi ! ness of its co-workers are i essential <to theirs and to i its business. | The Mutual Service, one of the many constructive sub sidiary organizations con nected with W ilson & Co., plans all the year round to help these 1,400 women workers in every possible way, but one of its greatest services is arranging the details for these summer outings. The talented young women I—COD BLESS THEM who j have charge of the Mutual Serv ice, prefer to do this kind of work to any other in the whole wide world. They say their re ward is greater than if they took positions with commercial an | gles to them only, lit is a great tiling for the hap | pincss of working womanhood j that young women of this type llike to do things for their sis ! ter workers that bring roses to | the cheeks of tired mothers and ' their babies and give them a j chance to sec the moonlight land the starlight and the sun | light unobstructed by tall build ings and narrow streets to give them a chance to hear the birds sing and to inhale the pure air that abounds in Camp Wilsonia —to give them a chance to dig into and to play in the soil of (iod's country. Do you wonder that happiness abounds among the workers in the Wilson & Co. organiza tioris? Don't you sec how these little, thoughtful courtesies help to up hold the spirit of loyalty that is the bed-rock of the Wilson & Co. success, and why there is so much meaning to the slogan, "The Wilson label protects your table?" .
