Here's One Way to Give Every year, between Christmas and the New Year, the newspapers are filled with storie: cf gifts and berefactiens and so it was during the recent holiday season. We are intrigued by the benefaction benefac-tion of a paint manufacturer iiv Philadelphia, who paid off every bill owed by his 100 employes. The debts ranged from market bills to mortgages on homes and totalled $100,000. Much mere equitable, it seems to us, is the plan to give bonuses to all employes, based upon length of service and yearly pay, or other factors. To haphazardly pay up all debts of employes might easily be the mean? of penalizing thrifty andl responsible workers in favor cf careless and incempetent laborers. However, no man can complain. Everybody, at least, get something that he did not expect and the fact that another got a larger share is beside the point.
