The Hurnau `r:: rt :l,
I
Recently 1 noticed a diseussion
about the problem cu' the hired m1111
o the farm.
n e
It took me back to the summer that
I spent as a hired man, in a section.
of the country where everybody had
to put in. about a dollar and a quar-
ter's worth of work to get a dollar
out of the soli.
Even though all of us were poor,
there were social distinctions in that
cummunity none the less. The hired
men were in a class by themselves,
and they knew it.
The owners of the farms went to
church, but the hired men didn't go;
they generally congregated Sunday
morning in the sicinity of the livery
stable.
They were not invited much. to
parties, nor did they join the lodge.
They were a real "problem" indeed,
and the fault was partly theirs, and
partly that of the men for whom they
worked.
Since then I have been a hired man
in the city, and I have been an em-
ployer of hired men.
And I have asked myself often:
"What ought a hired man to expeht
from a job? What should work give
to a man if it is to take his active
life in return?"
Two things at least, it seeing to
me: -
The promise of a home of his own
and of ultimate independence.
Progressive concerns in the cities
are more and more recognizing this
as a fundamental truth. One big
company I know whose profit-sharing
system guarantees to any man who
stays with it twenty years enough to
keep himself in comfort after that.
On the farm such a plan is impos-
sible, but the spirit behind the plan
can prevail. The man who works can
be made to feel the job he holds is
not a blind alley leading nowhere,
but a path leading forward to better
things.
Iteeently, the branch manager of a
large company introduced the presi-
dent of the company to a convention
of salesmen.
He said to them something like
this: "Now you can see what a fine
president you have; you van trust
him to take care of you so don't be
forever asking for more money."
The president arose and announced
that he would have to disagree with
the branch manager.
"1 want men around me who are
after more money all the time," he
said. "Tile man who .isn't earning
more every year, and ei:pecting more,
can work for someone elec. I do not
want that kind to work for me."
It ;gems to me if I were running
a farm I would feel somewhat that
,ante way. 1 couldn't raise the wages
I of the hired man beyond a certain
point, bet 1 coald encourage the
young man who was giving me a year
or tw•o of his life to look forward
beyond the place where he would be
a hired man,
I would rather have a year of the
life of a young chap who was on hie
Tway to larger things—to a horn and
1independence—than ten years of the
