PACKING HOUSES TO
CDT DOWN OVERTIME
New Wage Scale Granted to
Employes Results in Efforts
to Avoid Long Hours
for Men.
Because of the high wages paid to
packing house employes, brought
about by a recent court decision, the
superintendents and managers of the
local plants have been instructed not
to work the men overtime unless
absolutely necessary.
Unskilled labor now commands 40
cents an hour for an eight-hour day,
50 cents an hour for the next two
hours, and 60 cents an hour for over
10 hours, with double time for bun
days. Beginning May 5, the men will be
worked in eight-hour shifts, with
fewer men in each shift, thus saving
the extra pay for overtime.

The
Plumb
Line
Before the invention of
the plumb line we have every
reason to believe that build
ings were not quite straight
and true, or as the Irishman
insisted, "A little more than
straight," which we think
was about the same thing.
Nowadays there is a
plumb line to most every
thing; a standard of excel
lence or of ethics that com
pels correctness.
When you furnish and
decorate, whether it be a
single room or a brand new
home, do it via the modern
method, that is, through our
Department of Interior
Decoration, then you will
avoid being not quite plumb
or a little more than plumb.
