Yes, there‘s room for five thousand. Now that Canada is celebrating her 60th Anniversary as a nation, and singe she is rapidly becoming one of the great industrial powers of the world, it is interesting to note that ghe is also in the forefront in providâ€" ing ideal working conditions in many of her great industrial enterprises. Thousands of people every year inâ€" spect the ‘‘Salada"‘ buildings. They are typical of what is now being done along these lines. This is very noticeable in industriâ€" al plants. The terrible working conâ€" ditions portrayed in some of Dicken‘s books have never been duplicated in Canada. _ Large _ employers, _ with vision, have however, realized the wisâ€" dom of creating the best. possible working conditions for_ their emâ€" ployees. Nowhere is this better exemplified than by the Salada Tea Company. It was the idea of the Hon. P. C. harkin, the founder of the Company, and now the Canadian High Commissioner in London, to create an «atmosphere of order, ('lo inliness and beauty in his huge warehouses that would react on the workers, make them want to work well, and give them greater satisfacâ€" tion out of life. His ideal has been admirably accomplished, we were told by on‘e of the officials of the company. Some of the employees welfare features adopted by the Salada Tea Company are followed "by many other firms. Some are unique. The Salada Tea Company, in each of their wareâ€" houses, has a large and artistically furnished employees clubroom, and a spotlessly clean and efficient dining room. _ The community dining room and rest room create a tamlly atmosâ€" phere among the workers which makes for better coâ€"operation, contentment and a higher standard of work. All employees can also benefit by an exâ€" ceedingly cheap group insuranee plan. There are beautiful gardens behind the Toronto plant on King St., near Spadina Ave., where the employees bowl in the summertime, and shower baths are supplied in the basement. Many people do not realize that we are living in a new industrial era. You hear much talk about the freeâ€" dom of the younger generation, exâ€" pressed by bobbed hair, short skirts, the discard of chaperones, ete., but few realize that this is a huge wave of rebellion at conditions of life that thwart humanâ€" happpiness and the right to live one‘s own life that is slowly undermining and completely altering many of our institutions.
