AN ANONYMOUS LETTER
Once in a V7hile it seems to be a good
plan to break all rules even the very
best of rales. Ordinarily, dLnonymous
letters deserve no Sknsvrer. It is pretty
safe to fonr. the habit of gently drop-
ping unsigned communications into the
waste basket. For the most part, un-
signed letters are sent in a spirit of
malice and are -unsigned because of
such malice.
There is no reason, however, viij the
letter that follows should not have been
signed. It shows that the v/riter does
not ijnderstand all o:f the difficulties
of conducting a large business but there
is no rancor, no threat, no malice. The
writer of the letter had a perfect ri^t
to say vAiat he did, and to ask v*iat he
did. His only mistake was in not sign-
ing it.
'iVe want to answer it, but we see no
way of reaching the author, except by
using the pages of the Kodak L'.agazine
and perhaps it will be just as v,«ell to
answer in print, because there may be a
few others \i4io have been thinking along
the same lines, and v/ho will be helped
to a better understanding of business
problems if they read vdiat we have

There is never a lay-off of men, nev-
er a shortening of hours belov/ the norm-
al except in cases of absolute necessity.
If we were all-wise, if we could tell a
year or tv/o years ahead just v.tiat busi-
ness conditions are to be, and, if busi-
ness always raji along at about the sstme
gait, it would be possible to adjust the
number of employees and the plant output
to such a nicety that there would be a
full day's work for everybody every day.
Indeed, that would be the ideal con-
dition for economical majiufacture, for
the plaint and the force would always be
large enou^ to fill the demand, the
goods would be sold quickly and we would
get our money. On the other hand, the
plant would never be too large, and there-
fore, we would never be obliged to add to
the cost of our goods the overhead of tm-
used machinery and unused factory space.
But general business conditions have
always had their ups and downs, and prob-
ably always will have. At one time,
everybody has a job full time, good
pay. There's a boom on. All looks
rosy. People spend freely, too freely,
to tell the truth, and among the things
to they buy are photographic goods. T.'e are

A Definition: Doctors who furtively

further their ovm private interests.
Fbllow Kodak Employees:
At the close of the second Tcnsil-
^aencid Ciinic on April 17th, there
vrere remaining in the public schools
of Bcchester about 10,000 children who
v;ere in dire need of the tonsil-adenoid
operation. These children had been ex-
amined by the health officers of the
city and included no doubtful cases; on-
ly those flrtio had diseased tonsils that
".vere interfering v/ith their physical
-.Tel fare were included. ?rom three to
five thousand of these children, in my
opinion, have been prevented from re-
ceiving the benefits of the. operation
by doctors who think that the clinic in-
terferes v/ith their opportunities to col-
lect fees for private operations. There
are in the City of Rochester about 400
physicians and surgeons. The great ma-
jority are men with correct ethical 1-
deas, but a;i30ng them there are some who
are v/illing to sacrifice the interests
of the cOEiLunity to further their own,
and who should be classed as above. The
object of this letter is to enable you
to identify them.
The advisability of removing diseased
tonsils such as have been classified by
the examining physicians as IIos. 3 and
i is no longer debatable in good faith
^^ong the doctors of Rochester for the
reason that the competent men have de-
clared themselves over and over again en
the affirmative side. In the prelimin-
ary survey last fall when all the chil-
dren in four typical schools were examin-
ed, it was found that the percentages cf
children needing the operation who had
had the benefit of it were as follows:
Poorest school ISye
liedium school 34/J
Well-to-do school 41J6
Rich private school 97^
This record shows conclusively that,
the poorer the child, the less attention
it has had, and that practically every
child of rich parents needing it in the
(Jity Of Rochester has had the advantage
1:AGAE1ME
of the operation. The object of the
clinic was to give the children of the
people of limited means the same oppor-
tunity as the children of the rich. To
do this a remarkable organization v/as
built up, competent to perform 600 op-
erations per v/eek, divided among the
hospitals. Dental Dispensary, and the
emergency clinic at Convention Hall.
7he co-operation of some of the best
physicians and surgeons in town was se-
cured. The hospitals made Arrangements
(at great inconvenience to then:) to take
care of their quota, and preparations
vrere made to do 1£,000 or 14,000 opera-
tions before the first of July, which
was only about 755b of the known existing
cases neediiig Inmediate attention.
The clinic had to shut dovm v/nen only
a little ever 7,300 cases had been oper-
ated upon. rareuts of the remaining
10,000 could not be convined of the ne-
cessity of this operation. How many cf
this remaining 10,000 had been influenced
against the clinic by their doctors is a
mere guess, but, in my opinion, 3,000 to
5,000 is a fair estimate. It is likely
that the number of doctors v/ho have en-
deavored to prejudice people against tae
clinic is small compared to the total
number of doctors in the City, but the
influence of even a small number of such
men is very great. These men can easily
be identified by their actions. If any
doctor has told you that the operation is
dangerous, that the benefits of the op-
eration are doubtful, or that the phy-
sicians in the clinic are incompetent or
careless, you may mark him down as one
coming .vithin the definition. Bear in
r.ind that doctors are much like other
people. The great bulk of them are hon-
est, but some of them are dishonest, am
such are often v/illing to sacrifice the
interests of their jatients in order to
get money for themselves. Such men are
the most dangerous members of this com-
r.iunity because their v/ork is furtive and
hidden, ana done under an altruistic g".;ise.
If one of your children has been ex-
amined in the school and recommended to
aave the operation, and your physician ad-
vises against it, if he is honsst, he v/iil
be perfectly willing to give his reasons
in writing addressed to Dr. V.'.A. Sawyer,
lledical iJirector of this company. If
 THE KODAK
your ohlld has not been exsuninod, you
should send it to the Dental Dispensary
to be examined. If the child has dis-
eased tonsils and you fail to have them
removed, some day you will almost sure-
ly have cause to regret it, and your
child will have good reason to blame yofu
for yoxir failure to taloe advantage of an
opportiinity which would have saved him,
or her, much suffering and possibly per-
manent disability.
The operation is a simple one, and not
dangerous when performed by skilled men
who make a specialty of the work. Over
13,000 operations have been performed
A MUTUAL AFFAIR
Everything that helps the company
helps you as an employee.
If an improvement is made in a pro-
duct whereby it oan be manufactured at
a less cost or in an iiq>roved way, it
helps you.
If a short cut through some business
routine is devised, thus saving time
and money for the company, it helps you.
Ejqjeriraental departments and e:q)ert6
in business management have no monopoly
on good ideas; they must have the co-
operation of you and me all of us, to
keep our organization In the front rank.
It v/as for this reason that the Sug-
gestion System was established.
The Su(>P«stion System Committee is
the clearing house for ideas, and all
ideas submitted in the form of a sug-
gestion receive prompt and thorough in-
vestigation; there is no chance of their
being lost or pigeon-holed in soxe busy
executive's desk.
Our Suggestion Committee takes its
job seriously; they are sold on the
idea that whatever helps the comx>any
helps each inaividual employee.
In the thousands of suggestions re-
MAGAZINS
in the hospitals, Dental Dispensary, emd
the txfo emergency clinics within toe
past two years, without a single fatal-
ity.
The operation should be performed in
a hospital or clinic where the child con
be kept under skilled observation until
all danger is over. A rich T^J^1^ oan put
his child into a private room at a hos-
pital cad pay for a private operation and
a special nurse, but even then he cannot
secure for it greater skill or better
care than the children receive who go
to the clinics and pay only a nominal
sum.
ceived durinii tae year, a good many
that are seemingly trivial are handed
in. Suggestions of this nature are
not just dismissed with short shrift,
but are carefully and thoroughly in-
vestigated, as are all others, and
turned down only when all the evidence
is overwhelmingly against them.
Son» of you have sent In a suggestion
that was turned down, and tnerefore you
stopped letting your idea faotory work.
That is the wroag way to do. *9 could
mention a number of employees whose first
and sometices second and third sug-
gestions were turned down; this did not
discourage them, and they have since re-
ceived substantial a%-ards.
Get the idea out of your head if
it exists that the Suggestion System
is solely a company plan it is fally
as much yours, a mutual affair all the
way through.
Whatever helps the company helps
you. If you have an Idea you think
—
might be worth v/hile, act on it don't
sleep on it send it In.
And, once more, bear In mind the
fact that "31g Awards for Big Thoughts"
Is a slogan which means just what it
says.

 T H-E KODAK
DON »T BE THE NEXT
Thinlc of this .' One million dol-
lars was taicen out of Rocliester last
year by fake stook salesmen on the
promise of big returns for money in-
vested in their stoolc. Most of us
cannot conceive of any reason why a man
should part with his money without thor-
oxighly investigating the merits of
the stock offered for sale. Yet, it
appears that only the weak arguments of
the salesman are sufficient to make the
unwary part with their hard-earned life
savings.
A representative of the Rochester
Investors Protective Committee, posing
as a wortonan in a factory, placed him-
self in the way of a stock salesman for
the purpose of ascertaining what line
the get-rich-quick promoters use. The
strongest selling point is not the val-
ue of the securities offered, but the
fact tbiat the .worker's employer "had the
aerve to take a chance, make an invest-
ment, and thereby become -ffealthy." The
worker is told he has as good or a bet-
ter chance to become independent by pur-
chasing the stock offered. "The thing,
my boy, is to strike out for yourself",
"clean up in one good investment", and,
"all you need is the nerve to start and
soon you will have others working for
you", are other sellizig arguments.
When one of the salesmen was asked
why his concern had not submitted its

proposition to the Chamber of ConiDeroe
or Rochester banks, the investigator
was told that those institutions "would
knock anything they are not in on them-
selves".
It was subtly hinted to the prospect-
ive investor that he should not be mis-
led by his employers or by capitalists
as it was to the interest of manufactur-
ers, chambers of commerce, and bankers
to "keep the workinjman down".
The strong persistence shov,-n by the
stock salesmen was responsible for many
of their sales, according to the invest-
igator. Once a "prospect" gets into
the hands of these promoters, he is sub-
jected to a third degree inquisition in
which the salesman winds up with a la-
ment that he should have wasted his time
on a man who lacks the initiative and
courage to make quick decisions although
he is sorry he has not been the means of
aiding him to act for himself and ac-
quire a competence.
Employers and their attitude are
made the lure which has been success-
ful in wheedling savings from the
pockets of wage earners. There is
no easier or better way of losing all
your money than by handing it over to
these fake stock salesmen. Don't

paper, I was surpised at the amount of
change I received, and, on questioning
Henry, learned that I had ^jiven him a
five dollar bill the day before, and had
vamoosed before he could dig out some
bills. I hadn't as yet missed the
money but Henry, honest as he is, knew
I would, and he didn't for one minute
forget that necessary requisite for suc-
cess in life integrity.
Integrity draws the highest rate of
interest in the business world. I'oney
may pay five per cent., or more, but
integrity alvrays earns at leapt one
hundred per cent. Squareness is a good
synonym for integrity they both mean
the same. A person of integrity is
alv/ays unselfish. He considers not
alone the profits of today's labor, but
the v/orth of to-morrov/'s good will. De-
ception plays no part.
This matter of Integrity is too of-

overlooked ? Why do so many of us
dismiss the matter as trivial ? In-
tegrity is the corner-stone of success.

HOW TO HELP
fie all of us knov/ toat there is
something wrou^ v/ith things in gener-
al, but many of us fail to see where
we can do anything individually to
help matters; we are inclined to pass
the question to the man higher up for
solution.
?e do not buy many of the things
that we purchased freely in ordinary
tines because we feel that the price
is too high.
In many instances, the cost of raw
material has cor.ie down, but the cost
of production and distribution has not,
and 80, until toese costs have been
proportionately reduced, the higher
price must prevail.
Now, one way to lower production
cost is to produce more in a given
period. Every one of us can do more
per aay than v/e aire doing; every one
of us have it in our power to help
lower production costs, whether we are
employed in the actual manufacture or
not.
VTaat follows may sotmd to you a bit
"preachy" and trite, but it honestly
is worthy of your thoughtful consider-
ation and action because it di-
rectly affects you in the pooket-boolc.
A machine in good order can turn
out more good •Art)rl£ than one out of re-
pair; this is equally true of the hu-
man machine. Keep yourself fit. ?ive
minutes a day wasted by a single indi-
vidual does not seem much; multiply
this by tvrelve thousand, and it runs
into good hard dollars.
An accident, and most accidents
are due to carelessness costs both
tine and money, and this cost must be
added to tae cost of production.
.Vasted and spoiled material, yes,
even lead r«ncils, paper clips, and
rubber bands cost a tidy sum per year;
their cost must be added to the cost
of production.
You have it in your power to help
materially in bringing things back
So, all together, now,
to normal.
let's go !

"Bill is a fine chap," or '".'^ry is

quite frequently you hear some such re-
mark passed regarding someone around
the plant. Again, you may Inquire
about someone, and the reply will be,
"Oh, I guess he's all right, but the
fellows don't seem to care for him much,"
Or else a frank avowal of dislike.
'/le all like to be popular with the
rest Of the people v/e know, for man is
by nature a friendly animal and when
we are not, or think we are not, it is
usually our own fault. But we have
pretty near got to be what the other
fellows think we are; we cannot be sly

folks believe that we are four square

hand, the most unpopular or disagree-
able person that you knov/ aas friends

One man, a really bright chap, lost
many friends by his peculiar jealous
temperament. He Just couldn't seem
to bear to see anyone else but himself
succeed. If some new chap came into
the department, and seerced to be get-
ting a good start, he would go to the
next man to the boss in the department,
and tell him how the new man was trying
to undermine him with the boss, or if
that didn't work, he would try to stir
up dissension some other way. flhen
he felt like it he could be Just the
pleasantest chap imaginable, and then
without warning, or provocation, turn
on someone and "roast" him to a turn.
We all heaved a sigh of relief when
he left for pastures new.
You don't have to be noisy or boist-
erous, and go around slapping the fel-
lows on the back to be popular; or be
what is called a "good mixer," but you
have got to be what you want folks to
think you are if you -.Tant your good
standing to be permanent.
Slouching gives a poor appearance and
oro-wis the lungs. Sit and stand "tall"
at your v/ork, and note the difference in
the length of time before the body tires
of the position.

and then.

 HAWK-EYE
P. R,
BASEBALL
"Camera ^orks is oar favorite
dish" - sounds like our old friend,
A. Mutt, talking, but really there is
no expression which more fittingly
voices the sentiments of the Hawk-Eye
fans. For the two years that the
League has been in existence. Camera
Works and Hawk-Eye have been fighting
out the championship battles down to
the very last game.
It is true that v.e have lost some
fighting blood, in that we are minus
the services of such stars as Fox at
third, Petersen behind the plate, and
Marcille in the box; however. Manager
J. fiussell Craib promises to provide
equally valuable talent to offset the
loss. In tnis, he is aided greatly by
the fact that the Premo and Folmer
Century plants have decided not to
place representative teaioa in the
League this year. Suoh action on
their part brought out a decision from
the directors of the League to the
effect that the Premo and Folmer play-
ers be given an opportxinity to play
with Kodak Office and with Hawk-Eye.
So, fans, you see, Hawk-Eye gains in
that we have secured the services of
such able performers as Petroake,
Drabinskl, Fleming and McCormick to
bolster up our player list.
Petroske's ability to handle
pitchers is one of his greatest assets,
while one neeus no inside "dope" as to
his prowess to manufacture "Hawk-Eye
hits" and run the bases. Prabinski is
a fielder of note, but it is Manager
Craib 's intention to use this star to
fill the shoes of "Mort" Fox at
third. Fleming and iicCormick, as
pitchers, will shine as heavers of the
tantalizing sphere when given the
proper support a la Hawk-Eye. We are
happy indeed to welcome these men in-
to the Hawk-Eye fold.
MEINHARD
Editor
AT HAWK-EYE
And, now, to return to our own
Hawk-Eye players. In addition to the
acquisition of the two Folmer- Century
pitchers, Hawk-Eye has a duo of hurl-
ers in Graham and Meerdink. Graham,
who did such noble work in the second
game of the city championship series,
should prove a sore winner when he is
called upon to take his turn On the
mound, lieerdink, while for the most
part Inexperienced, has demonstrated
in praotice that he has the proper
qualifications to become a first
class twirler and ilanager Craib in-
tends to develop him as the season
progresses.
With three of the four infielders
of last year's champions to guard the
defense in the front yard, and three
veterams doing guard duty in the back
yard, our position is safe from at-
tack. Harry liocre looks better at
first than Fred ilerkle would on the
Hawk-Eye nine. Harry has fully re-
covered from the injuries he re-
ceived in the first game with Art
in Buttons, and is ready to play the
"hero for a day" every Saturday after-
noon. Felerski, after a winter
season divided between basketball and
indoor baseball, is ready for an
eventful session around the keystone
sack, with Ingleby as his help-mate.
"Ing" was one of Hawk-Eye's most
timely hitters last year and we want
that boy, Elmer, to start right in
where he left off. Prentice, the
youngest member of last year's team
will do utility duty this year. "Ch'ook",
as you know, is an all-around athlete
and can take his place in. eight out
of the nine positions on the field.

Of course you have scanned the
suggestion awards for the six months
ending April 30th. Maurice Grouse, of
the Assembling Department, heads the
list with a prize of ^166.06 on a cost-
reduction idea pertaining to the Kodak
Enlarging Outfit. V.lllis Richmond, of
the same department, is next with an
award of $15.00 for a suggestion of
the same nature on the small sizes of
loading fixtures. Joseph Hamy of the
Moulding Department received ^12.00
for bringing forward a new device for
smoothing the brick slabs in the fur-
naces without removing them. Frank
Hanse of the Production Department re-
ceived $10.00 for calling attention to
a serious fire hazard, and the same
amount was awarded to Adolph Nolte of

HAPPENED TO YOU?
and, frequently spoiled tempers, the
Industrial Relations Department has
instituted a Riotographic Class, under
the leadership of Fred W. Brehm.
The first group is now well under
v/ay. Meetings are held after vrorking
hours in the Committee Room, and at
noons in the yard. In order not to
retard those people who have advanced
beyond a preliminary stage, and also
to advance those who progress, the
group is divided into two distinct
classes. There are thirty-six men in
Class A (Advanced) and thirty-nine men
and women in Class B. Those members
who have not their own cameras are
supplied with a Kodak for ten weeks -
the proposed duration of Class B. One
roll of film is allowed each member,
each week.
After the exposures are made an
accurate account of the shutter speed,
q^uality of lens, condition of light,
diaphragm stop and type of camera is
written on the envelope containing the
film. This film is developed in the
Industrial Relations Department and
afterwards judged by Mr. Brehm. The
examination of film and constructive
criticism as to -vihy the pictures are
not a success is a valuable asset to
the amateur photographer. Mr. Brehm
holds office hours for this purpose
on Tuesdays and Fridays from 12:30 to
1:15 o'clock. On fine days the fact-
ory yard is used for demonstrating
photographic facts and all class mem-
bers are urged to attend.
V/hile both classes are under the
directorship of "Fred" Brehm, it is
planned to have the advanced Class
formulate their own schedule. At a
recent meeting, 7/illiam Whincup was
elected as Chairman of Class A. Many
ideas are being put into action, and
competitions covering views, architect-
ure, portraits, and nature studies will
be held in the near future.
Particular attention is being paid
to Class B. members. There is no
question that the numerous failures
among photogi'aphers are due to the
lack of the fundamental principles.
It's so easy to get a camera and film,
locate the subject in the view finder.

How many people can accurately
judge distances? It's very important
to gauge the distance bet-ireen six,
eight, ten, fifteen, and twenty-five
feet. This is y&i&t a focusing scale is
for; each distatnce is conveniently
marked, according to depth of focus,
which assures you clear pictures pro-
viding you use the scale correctly. At
a distajice-guessing competition it was
proven that not ten percent, of the
class had a clear conception of com-
puting a given linear measure. Arthur
Chippendale of Class A proved to be
the most correct, having exactly half
the distances computed rightly. Follow-
ing him was Arthur Santay of Class B.
with forty percent, to his credit, and
Gladys L'.orse, Halph Hand ley and Frank
Schantz running tie for third place.
Another cause of failure is not us-
ing the view-finder correctly. Taking
pictures vertically instead of horizon-
tally or vice versa, axjcoimts for many
a subject being beheaded or walking on
legs Instead of feet.

Pour Kodak Teams under the Wire in Eace for 1921 Pennant
Baseball fans in all six plants of
the company waited eagerly for June 4th
and the 19;il Opening Day of the Eastman
Kodak Baseball League on the Kodak Park
diamond. The league this year has
been formed with four competing teams,
instead of six as in previous seasons.
The rearrangement is expected to make
the Kodak circuit a faster and stronger
aggregation tkian heretofore. Folmer-
Century and Premo will not be represent-
ed by League teams this year. The
players of these plants have, however,
been given the privilege of playing
with either Hawk-Eye or Kodak Office.
An Opening Day Committee, comprised of
Herbert 3. Thorpe, Camera Works, Chair-
man; "Jerry" 'ifelles, Kodak Park, and
Eaymond '.Vail, Hawk-Eye, vras appointed
by H. D. Haight, President of the League.
This Committee made arrangements for the
appearance of officers of the company to
participate in the usual ceremonies just
before the opening game between Hawk-Eye
and Camera '.'/orks.
The season tickets covering admission
to all games have been going rapidly in
all the plants, and the indications are
that attendance records will be broken
this summer at Kodak Park, as well as at
Baseball Park. This is surely goitxg to
be a big year I'or baseball.
The Kodak Park diamond has received
considerable attention from Caretaker
Delos {"Sid") Sidman, who promises to
keep the Lake Avenue field in go If- green
shape throughout the twelve weeks of the
season. Another feature of the League
games this summer v/ill be a big, new
scoreboard.
Sizing up the four contenders as they
start down the stretch this season, they
look about as follows;
!
Hawk-Eye still retains most of last
season's outfit, which, you will remem-
ber, battled its way to the City In-
dustrial Championship. In addition,
they have snared some of the likeliest-
looking talent from the CJraflex team of
1920. The choicest morsel of the Hawk-
Eye haul is by all odds "Pat" Petroske,
who, clouted for an averaige of .608 with
the Century team last season. "Pat" is
a veteran catcher, whose annexation will
do much to fill the gap caused by the
loss of ex-captain Allan Peterson, who
is no longer with the St. Paul Street
plant. Other recruits signed by Hawk-
Eye from the I'olmer teaim are "Jack"
Fleming, a big pitcher formerly v/ith
the General Railway Signal, and "Katt"
llcCormick, who twists them over with
his left wing. With these new players,
Yanager J. Russel Craib expects to coast
right along through to another pennant.
"Doc's" veterans include Harry Koore,
Captain "Stximp" Wiedman, Prentice, ^1-
erski. Van Lare, Ingleby, Levine, and
Graham. Tv/o new faces in the Hawk-Zye
line-up are John V.eerdink, and Raymond
Connell.
Lee Yoder, veteran pilot of the Cam-
era tVorks team, has been plugging away
at the formation of his squad in his
usual aggressive fashion, and is spon-
sor for the claim that Camera V,'orks v/ill
have the best team on record. Yoder
has practically all of his 1920 outfit
to build on, and few changes are looked
for. With four pitchers of the calibre
of Pressley, Kivell, Kline, and Rutan to
call upon, the Camera V/orkers .vill doubt-
less put a crimp in batting- averages.
Yoder, with sagacious modesty, refused
to make any predictions, merely saying:
"Just wait and see."

games for the film naJcers. Bircher
states that he has twice as many candi-
dates for the team as in any previous
year, and he expects to introduce the
pennant to the sacred confines of Kodailc
Parle before snow flies again.
To Walter Hardy, a former college
player, falls the taslc of selecting a
team to represent Kodak Office. Ko-
dak Office has alv/ays been a dark horse
in the Eastman League, and this year
seems no exception to the rule. "Walt"
v/ill undoubtedly be a playing manager,
holding down the third sack. He can
also take a turn on the mound in a
pinch. Several of last year's team
already seem certain of positions, not-
ably "Dutch" Irwin, the veteran back-
stop, and "loddy" Diehl, the League's
premier striice-out artist. Kanager
Hardy is banking considerably upon the
expected influx of college men who
usually spend their summers under the
shadow of the sixteenth floor. Among
these are the Ogden brothers, and
"Hank" Rohrer. Hardy has also taken
advantage of the invitation rule to be-
speak the services of George Texter,
infielder and catcher from Premo; Sul-
livan and llura, also from the South
Street plant, and Drabinski, Willar,
and Jawer of Folmer-Century.
All in all, these four teams are ex-
ceptionally well matched, and it seems
a safe prediction that the League v/ill
be stronger, competition keener, and
the interest and attendance greater
taan during amy of the two previous
seasons.

There are ether physicians v.ho are
too indifferent, too lazy or too incom-

and v.ho have allov<-ed their patients to

A certain member of our organization
was taken ill with pleurisy, which later
developed into eiapyeiva. He was taken to
a hospital where he reirained for seven
weeks. During this period, he was not
attended by his family physician as he
was a v/ard patient. This, however, is
the usual hospital custom, and his care
was of the best. Eventually, this man
was removed to his hone where he was
visited weekly by one of our staff
nurses who t;as not satisfied with the
progress he was making towards recovery.
At a later date she was informed
that the patient's family phj'sician
had advised tne patient to remain av/ay
from work for at least six months.
The patient's fa^ly physician was
then asked by O-u* n irse if the man was
not suffering: from tuberculcsis and ho

from tuberculosis, was not told^that
he should remain in bed when runnin^;

whatever had been taken to prevent the
spread of the disease in the family
which includes two small children.
Some two years ago, a young v. Oman
in OUT employ was bothered by a more
or less persistent anu irritating cougii.
She consulted her family physician who
prescribed some one of the oommon
remedies lor such ailments; the
cough persisted but at no time was any
real attem^^t made to ascertain if
there v.as any deep-eeated cause.
Finally her fellcv* workers became
alarmea at her condition and the
danger to them from working in close
ported to cur I'.edical department ana
she was requested to submit,, to a
thorough examination. To her dismay,
:
she was found to be sui'ferinf; from a
well-advanced case of tuberculosis.
Both patients should have had a
thorough examination and should have
been tactfully inu'ormed as to their
true condition so that immediate and
proper methods could have oeen insti-
tuted to fight the disease and, if
possible, arrest its pror^ress and
prevent its snread to other members

mild examples of incompetence or

HOW WE MOVE WHAT
AN IMPERSOMIi SKEOXJH
EVEN such comnon household necessi-
ties as salt, sugar, flour, and soap do
not sell themselves, and every manufac-
turer of such products has to have an
aggressive sales department to put them
over.
Our products have a world-wide repu-
tation and distribution, and it would
"be pretty hard to locate a town vdaei-e-
in sonievAiere the familiar "Kodaks" sign
would not be found..
Without question, the hi^ equality
and uniformity of our products has help-
ed in obtaining this world-wide distrib-
ution, but this quality has been backed
always by forceful and never-ending ad.-
ertising and selling cainpaigns.
Our sales depaxtment in Rochester at-
tends to the marketing of our products
in the United States and to a certain
portion of our export trade.
To expedite our viiolesale distribu-
tion, we have branch houses in New
York, Chicago, and San Francisco, but
we do not distribute throu^ vftiolesale
houses, commonly known as jobbers.
There is naturally an excellent rea-
son for this, and that is that sensitiz-
ed goods such as plates, film, and pho-
tographic paper deteriorate if improper-
ly stored and after a certain length of
time.
It is hi^ly important that the con-
sumers receive our products in perfect
condition, and it is for this reason
that we keep our goods imder our con-
trol as far as possible.
Not so m^y years ago, we had practi-
cally only two classes of consvimers, the
professional studio and view photograph-
er, and the amateur.
Today, hov;ever, photography is play-
ing a highly important part in the
sciences, and in research and record
work incident to tha production of a
wide vairiety of things.
Then, too, there is the motion pic-
ture industry; grown to hiige proportions

YOU MAKE
OF OUR SELLING ORGANIZATION
within the last few years; and all of
these concerns looking to us to supply
their wants.
So, today, the staff of our sales
department, both in the office and on
the road., includes a goodly number of
hi^ly-trained specialists,
OTir road force is divided broadly in-
to three groups; one group selling Ko-
daks and other cameras of our manufac-
t\ire, and the multitude of s\mdries used
by the amateur photographer. The sale
of our professional apparatus is in charge
of one man who specializes in this work.
The second group consists of our plate
and portrait film demonstrators——all
highly-skilled n^n, viho call on the pro-
fessional users of these products, and
assist them in every possible way in se-
curing the best possible results. The
third group embraces the paper demon-
strating staff, likewise highly-trained
men vdio visit our professional custom-
ers in the interest of the various pho-
tographic papers manufactured by us.
Vyfe have also other road men who speo-
ialize in the needs of the X-ray, surg-
ical, and research photographers; in
the special wants of those conducting
plants for amateur finishing, and still
another group looking after the motion
picture producers.
Thou^ a distinct, and separately-
managed and maintained organization, our
Advertising Department is in enthusias-
tic and harmonious accord with the Sales
Department in creating new business, and
in the maintaining and increasing of oilr
volume of sales.
You are all more or less familiar
with our magazine and newspaper adver-
tising, and have seen and read many of
the booklets issued by this department,
and encountered the "Picture Ahead"
signs to be found along our picturesque
highv;ays.
In addition to all this creative
future business v/ork, the sales depart-
ment is still further aided by the pub-
lication of four periodicals, the first
of Triaich is the Kodak Trade Circular,
 THE KODAK
which is of a confidential nature, and
sent only to dealers handling our goods.
It contains annoimcements of new
goods, changes in prices and discounts,
Mnf^ other live natter incident to the
sale of our products.
The second is the "Kodak Salesman",
vdiich is sent each month to our dealyrs,
and to such of tlieir employees as the
dealer elects. This publication is
directly in the aid of the man behind
the cotinter. It is carefully and
cheerfully written and edited, and with-
out doubt has much to do with keeping
the retail salesman "sold" on us, and
in wiiat we produce.
It is obvious .that, even v/ith our
large force of road men, we cannot call
on every professional photographer reg-

I MPROV I NG YOUR
Play Safe Before Paying the Contractor
You and the lady to whom you turn
over your pay envelope, are pretty
proud of your new home, but you feel
that a oonorete walk to the back door
would Improve things a lot.
So you look vcp a walk contractor and
make arrangements the men oome and put
;
down the walk, the work is satisfactory
and you pay the contractor for the Job^
A few evenings later there comes a
ring at the bell, and you find on the
steps one of the men who laid your new
walk. He informs you that he worked
three days on the Job and hasn't been
paid, and that the contractor has left
town, or has refused to pay him for hia
work.
You remark plaasajitly that you sure
are sorry, but it really isn't any of
your concern as all your dealings were
with the contractor who hired him and
that you hold his receipted bill for
the Job.
"Well, be that as it may," he re-
sponds, "but if I don't get my money,
I'll file a mechanics lien against your
property.
And, under the circumstances, can
he do this, and collect? He most cer-
tainly can. Here is Section 3 of the
Lien Law of the State of New York.
"Mechanics Lien on Heal Property."
"A contractor, sub-contractor, lab-
orer, or material man, who performs
labor or furnishes materials for the
improvement of real property with the
consent, or at the request, of the owner
thereof, or of his agent, contractor or
Bub-oontraotor, shall have a lien for
the principal and interest of the value,
or the agreed price, of such labor or
materials upon the real projierty im-
proved or to be improved and upon such
improvement from the time of filing a
notice of such lien as prescribed in
this article.
This being the law, the laborer would
have a lien on the property regardless
of whether or not his employer or con-
tractor has been paid by the owner, the
only limitations are that the work must
MAGAZINE
PROPERTY
be in the nature of am improvement to
real estate and mast be done at the re-
quest or with the consent of the owner.
Even though the owner pays the con-
tractor in full for the job, the labor-
er who works for the contractor may, if
his boss neglects to 'pay him, obtain a
lien upon the property.
This same law will apply in case
you had your home painted, re-shingled
or re-deccrated, or if you erected a
garage or bam on the property, or any
other Improvement
The way to protect yourself is ob-
vious. Before jjaying the contractor,
have him produce, or obtain them your-
self, signed statements from all the
men who have worked on the Job, stating
that they have been paid in full. , If
the Job is a large one, the owner may
protect himself by requiring the con-
tractor to put up a bond with adequate
security to indemnify the owner against
mechanics liens. This method, however,
is not very practical for small Jobs.
If a notice of lien is actually filed
against the property, the owner's best
course, if he cannot get the contractor
to pay the laborer, is to pay the
laborer himself and then bring suit
against the contractor. If the laborer
is not paid, he may foreclose his lien
in a manner similar to the manner of
the foreclosure of a mortgage, and may
force a sale of tue property and take
from tne proceeds of such sale, enough
money to satisfy his lien.
Naturally this difficulty for the
owner will only arise \men the con-
tractor fails to pay his help ajid this
can, of course, be largely avoided by
dealing with reputable contractors of
sufficient financial responsibility.
If at any time you are about to en-
gage in some x^roposition embracing the
expenditure of a considerable sum, or
if any problem similar to the foregoing
confronts you, do not fail to consult

sei^ice.

HOW TO REVIVE A SUFFOCATED PERSON
By W. A. Sawyer, M. D. , Medical Director
Eastman Kodak Compaxiy
Of late there has heen a tendency in
cases of suffocation to ignore the old
TnaTTuqi methods of producing artificial
respiration, and to use the vario\is ira-
ohines recently put upon the marloet for
this piirpose.
I am told upon good authority that
many city police departments have pur-
chased these machines, and it has been
made a part of their regulations that
the machine be used in preference to
the manual method, and in one or two
instances of ^ich I Icnow, the manual
method was not permitted even vdiile wait-
ing for the machine to arrive.
The Conference Board of Ihysicians in
Industry is making an effort to bring
this matter before varidus organizations
connected with industry, so that the
facts of the matter may be made Imown to
all. Without a doubt, some of the ma-
chines are excellent so far as they go,
but none have the ease amd speed of oper-
ation that is contained in those agents
Tdiich we always have with us, n ame ly,
our hands.
In industries ii^ere they have the

INSPIRATION: PRESSURE OFF
MAGAZINE
S^affocatioa or asjiyxiation is an ua-
conscious condition due to ttie inability
to get ozygea into the lungs. This may
be due to a number of oausesj first of
all, drowning. Secondly, from some form
of asphyxiation from gas, and third, par-
alysis of the breathing centers following
severe electric shoclc.
Treatment in Cases of Drowning
Lay individual with face down; arms
extended forward above his head. Turn
his face to one side. Remove false
teeth, tobacco, or any other contents of
the mouth, and draw tongue forwsird.
Loosen ti^t clothing about the neck.
Step astride of the subject, and with
hands grasped under the abdomen, lift
about 18 inches above tlie ground and
allow the water to run out of his air
I»LSsages and stomach. Following this,
wipe out his mouth and nostrils so as
to be sure that air may pass in ^ttI out
freely.
Kneel straddling patient's thighs, as
shown in illustration, facing his head
and resting your hands on his lowest ribs.
Swing forward and gradvially bring v/ei^t

If there is anyone present; to assist

warn., either by rubbing the limbs vig-
orously toward the heart, or by apply-
ing heat in some form to the feet. Two
hours is not too long for a life, and
respiration has often been restored af-
ter this length of time.
There is a tendency to conduct this
method, of respiration too rapidly, not
allowing the lungs a sufficient length
of time to expand after pressure has
been made upon the:n, so that twelve res-
pirations to the minute is sufficient.
A3 soon as possible, without interfer-
ing with breathing, get the patient un-
der cover and v/anr. v/ith hot water bot-
tles, hot bricks, hot stove lids or vig-
orous rubbing.
Do not attempt to give anything to
drinic bymouth 'until breathing has been
well established.
The prone-presL-ure method is preferred
to the Sylvester method in v±iich the sub-
ject is placed upon his back, because it
enables one person to conduct it, and at
the same time keeps the tongue from chok-
ing up the throat, and also permits any
liq.uids or other rriatter to flow froir. the
lungs cr stomach, thus preventing chok-
ing.
One very good v;ay to control the rate
of respirations is to co-ur.t "one", as
you mai.e the pressure upon the lower
KAGA.2IKE
ribs; release your pressure when count-
ing "two," and then count up to five when
you again start over and mtJce pressure
upon the ribs. Even thouj^i one counts
rapidly, this will keep the rate so.-re-
viiere near normal.
In performing the prone-pressure meth-
od, there is a tendency at first to feel
that you are not accomplishing anything
because tJiere cee-is to be little "give"

pressure, but, despite the apparent Inef-
fectiveness of this method, it 7/ill do
its work, ani can be persisted in for a
great length of time without fatigue on
the part of the operator.
This sa'ue method can be used in any
form of suffocation, following much the

The second annual outing of the

A lengthy and highly entertaining

side of him and a plate of the same in
his lap.

to curtail some of the more expensive
and less entertaining (from the point
of the number of persons affected)
activities in order to keep up the more
popular sports or those giving enter-
tainment to the greater numiier of per-

that very few of the activities are

The officers and directors have th-

direct tne course of activities along

actual touch with all phases of the

are far from discouraged. Only six of

McG-rady, one of these, is on the injur-
ed list v.ith a bad knee. It is expected,
however, that he will be back in the
game v. i thin a couple of weeks and will
be a big help. The other veterans are

GOLF TOORI^AIIEWT
Last year, as an experiment, golf
Mfas included as part of the activity
of the K.P.A.A, and proved such a de-
cided sxiccess that this season a real
honest-to-goodness tournament is to be
held.
Persons v/ishing to comjiete are askeu
to submit their names and to turn in a
signed score card each month during
June, July and August, showing their
best score daring this period. Based
on these scores, using the modified
Calkins Handicap System, ratings will
be arrived at for proper position in
the tournament which is to be held
during Jeiitember and October. As the

Park links, all scores submitted must
be made on this course.
Attention is called to the Park ral
that all placers wear their button. It
ma;,' also be of interest to know tiiat
the course at Durand -East man Park is in
condition and should offer much induce-
ment to tne pla^yers in view of the fact
that it is considered one of the sport-
iest in tnis section.
The K.P.A.A, will endeavor to keep
on hand all during the season, a supply
of standard make of golf balls which
may be purchased at discount prices by
members of the Association. Those wish-
ing to purchase other eouipment are in-
vited to consult Edward Goodridge, who
can possibly arrange for a reduction on
these articles.

the balance of the games, Tao-box, who
is showing up well, will be used. The
pitching staff is composed mostly of
new men who will need praotioe and ei-
'perience. Gallagher is to be used aa

valuable in view of his ability
to
play any position on the field.
Kodak Park rooters are urged to at-
tend the games played every Saturday
afternoon at Kodak Park and by way of
encouragement and support, help us win
games.
DR&FTSI.IEN FORM CHESS CLL©
About twenty employees of the Draft-
ing Department got together recently
and organized what is to be known as
the Kodak Park Chess Club. The fact
that there are quite a number of per-
sons at the Park who are interested in
this game, is responsible for the or-
ganization of the Club, and it is plan-
ned to have these twenty form a nucleus
for a much larger body.
An effort is to be made during- the
summer, to enroll all interested per-
sons, and in the fall, a general laeet-
ing is to be held at which officers will
be elected, plans mapped out for the
winter, and activities in gwneral got-
ten 'under way. Anyone wishing to become

COURT FIENDS HARD AT
Considerable work was done on the
K.P.A.A. tennis courts this spring,
such as re-surf aoing, new wire and
improved locker room facilities, mak-
ing the Park outfit one of the most
complete and up-to-date in the city.
Fred vailis of Building No. 35 has
again been appointed manager for 1921,
and is at work rounding up his players.
All of last year's team are available
with the exception of Harry Smith, but
prospects are nuite enoooraging. The
usual tournament will be run again this
year, under the direction of Dr. F. E.
Ross, and cups given the winners as in
the past.
Kodak Park has again entered the
Rochester Tennis League, composed of
Rochester Tennis Club, Llelville Ten-
nis Club, Dewey Avenue Club and Kodak
Perk.
In addition to the League matches,
other independent clubs not affiliated
with the League will be played. An in-
vitation is extended to all persons
wishing to try for a position on the
team to report to Ilanager V/illis, and
evei*y consideration will be shown them.
It is the object of the K.P.A.A. to

A G A Z I N E
IT
On June 15th, a new rule went into
effect relative to the use of the
courts. Since this date, each member
is charged five cents per hour for the
use of the courts during the following
hours. Week days except Saturday, from
5:30 P.M. until dark; Saturdays from
18:30 P.M. until dark, and Sundays and
holidays all day. The reason for this
rule is tiiat this year no money was
appropriated to pay for an attendant
at the courts outside of working hours.
At first it was thought that we could
get along without one, but this did not
prove satisfactory and several com-
plaints were received about outsiders
playing, members monopolizing the
courts, playing singles v/hen others were
waiting, and so forth. For these reasons,
it was decided to have an attendant. The
Board of Trustees decided that the fair-
est way to raise the money to pay him was
to put a very small charge on the use of
the courts. All of the money raised in
this way will be used for this purpose
and for the up-keep of the courts.
Following are the matches to be
played in the Rochester Tennis League.

 THE
ON PAY DAY
Perhaps some of us have eiperienoed
quite a little confusion in the manner
of obtaining our pay on Fridays in the
past. A suggestion has been adopted to
facilitate the method of handling the
number who assemble on this day. Form
in line according to yoor pass number
in the main lobby on the first floor.
There are to be two lines, one for the
employees of the Assembly department
to be formed on the south side of the
lobby and the other for all other de-
partments, on the north side. V.ith
your co-operation in this better
method, much time and confusion may be
saved.
"DO HOT PARK HERE I"
Auto owners are requested for the
matter of safety, not to park their
oars on Capron Street. A great deal of
trubklng is done on this narrow street,
especially by the R.T.Ford Construction
Company. A truck conveying long steel
girders must make a wide sv/ing to enter
the street and if your car is parked in
the street, it stands a fair chance of
being side-8v;iped and Jammed. Then, too,
a string of cars blocking the exit on

OTHER PRI2E WINMERS
Last month's issue of the Kodak
i-zine contained the first prize
essay submitted by Philip Voelckel
for the Prize Eaeay Contest on the
subject "WTiat Does the Kodak Magazine
Mean to Me?". Here are the second and
third prize winning essays which,
owing to the lack of space, we were
unable to rxni last month.

I thought that tlie Kodak Llagazine meant

zines arrive from the printer's? And,
why do I read it the minute I get it
KODAK 14AGAZ INE 19
(if the "Boss" Isn't around, or, if he
is feeling especially good-natured)?
V.ell, first, this little book has a
lot of news in it; some of it I already
know, and some is entirely new to me»
It serves as a sort of newspaper, keep-
ing me posted on all the latest KodaJc
events and activities, and it also
pleases me by bringing to my mind
memories of good times, good "eats",
good fun, and good friends. I like to
look at the pictures and cartoons; who
doesn't? And, vhere else can you find
such good cartoons, and suoh good like-
nesses of your friends and acquaintan-
ces? The fact that I often see car-
toons and photographs by two Premo
friends of mine increases m^ appreci-
ation of them.
The Magazine causes me to feel more
friendly towards the people here in
my own factory, and in the other East-
man plants, too. It produces a sort
of "get-together" feeling, and, as a
consequence of this, I do my work
better, am more contented, do not get
discouraged so often, and have more
fun and real companionship with my
fellow workers. It sort of softens
up the whole bunch of us and makes xis
more human, not just machines doing
oar appointed work and nothing more.
The general articles in the front
of the booklet about the origin and
progress of the Kodak, the making of
lenses, the work of the Patent Depart-
ment, the explanation of the Eastmen
Savings and Loan Association, etc., are
both interesting and instructive. In-
terspered with all this are practical
bits of advice v.hioh v-ould prove use-
ful to me if I only followed them up.
V/hile I don't take an active part
in athletics, still the section on
athletics interests me veiry much, as
I like to read about others who cover
themselves with glory, and especially
anyone from Prerao.
For these reasons, I like the Kodak
Magazine, and I am thankful that I work
for a company that publishes such a
lively Magazine, and gives it to every
employee free of charge.

SNAPSHOTS
We read In last month's Kodak Maga-
zine of v.hat happened to John and Mary,
and Bill ajid Helen who were so dis-
appointed when they found out their
picnic pictures had failed to "register",
and we outlined why so many people fail-
ed to get photographic results.
The need of pnotographic education,
especially to beginners, is amply proved
by the remarkable advancement shown by
the members of the olass, whose nega-
tives, after only five weeks of very
limited instruction, show a vast im-
provement •
llr. Brehm has gone to a great deal
of trouble to illustrate the frequent
mistakes which amateurs make, and has
also shown remedies to overcome unusiial
conditions. He has made dozens of lan-
tern slides exemplifying the "mysteries"
of focal length of lens, and, while ack-
nowledging the value of printed matter
on the rudiments of photography, there
is no question that an illustrated talk
covers the subject far better. The value
of personal contact is daily proved by
members asking why was this negative
marked "fair" or "good" or whatever the
case may be.
As each roll of film is developed in
the Industrial Relations Department and
personally Judged by Ltr.Brehm, the mem-
bers appreciate this sejrvice which saves
a great many spoiled films aaid dis-
appointed people.
An excellent medium of illustration
is used by showing enlarged drawings of
the parts of the camera that are fre-
quently misunderstood, such as the
view finder, the focusing scale, the
diaphragm scale, the shutter pointer
scale, etc. Possibly the most interest-
ing of the noon hour, lectures were
those given in the covered part of the
Court Yard. A screen was hong and chairs

from the numerous lantern slides
which were made for that purpose.
June 17th proved to be a red letter
day by way of attendance, when moving
pictures, loaned to us by the Adver-
tising Department, were shown.
V.e trust that the Management will
see fit to further this idea of noon
day "movies", not only as a means of
recreation, but from an educational
standpoint. The boundaries of motion
pictures are almost unlimited in re-
gard to illustrating the "whys" and
"v.hereforso"of photography.
It is being planned to make prints
from three negatives taken by each
member of the photographic class, the
prints being mounted on large display
cards, and the collection to be shown
throughout the factory.
V/e are sorry that space will not
permit a full review of the many bene-
fits tnat have been derived from
studying with the photographic class.Suf-
fice it to say that the next olass,
which is not schedule to start for
some weeks, is rapidly filling, and
the present meetings are proving to
be as successful as any organization
of employees formed in the Camera Works.
Did you send in a suggestion during
1920? Out of 291 suggestions received,
125 were adopted and the suggestors
were awarded a total of |;600.85.
Give us the idea for anything which
may result in an improvement of the
product, reduction in costs, lessening
of the accident or fire hazard, as well
as the suggestions- for general mainten-
ance or convenience. Why net try it and

A POPULAR ATHLETE
Hail to that all-around good fellow,
Charles Kivell We boast of many ath-
letes in the Camera Works, but it is a
safe bet that Charlie is a top-notcher.
Whether it be baseball or basketball,
he is at home with either. We have a
fine picture of Charlie in action at
the opening ball game, "graflexed" by
"Jimmie" Estes, but the Gods decreed a
oompositors' strike which prevents our
regular edition of the magazine being
printed, v/hich in turn prevents the
publication of the photograph. The
marvel to us is that Kivel manages to
escape the lures of matrimony. But
there, he probably is as good a "dodger"
as he is a"hitter".

22 THE KODAK
ARE YOJ GOING TO }QXH1BIT?
Gardeners, how are the orops ooming?
Are you planning to get some of the
"easy money" from our September exhibit?
Instead of holding a gardening in-
spection competition this year, we have
decided to concentrate all our efforts
on the fall exhibit, which will be held
on Saturday, the third day of September.
The Recreation Club has voted a con-
siderable sum of money for prizes, and
everybody will have a chance to compete,
either in the single or oplleotive class.
It seems almost futile for us to give
to the members of the gardening associ-
ation any advice relative to growing
vegetables, for we are now so well es-
tablished. We have learned, during
the six years of our existence as a business down pat I
gardening club, that individual con-
tact is more effective than group meet-
ings and, in consequence, members are
urged to bring their own problems to
the Secretary, in the Industrial Re-
lations Department, between the hours
of two and four.
The sale of seeds. aiid garden tools
has been quite large this year, and,
altogether, affairs warrant a success-
ful season. In raising vegetables for
exhibition purposes, don't forget that
it is not th» five largest specimens
that necessarily win the prize, but
rather those of a uniform and standard
size.
We hope to hold one group meeting
before our exhibition, when lantern
slides will be shown illustrating how
to select specimens for exhibiting and
also how to prepare them for the judge's
keen eye.

Have you ever considered how vitally
important your particular Job is in the
Kodak organization?
There is just one way to get the
goods on the top rung of the sales
ladder; that is, by man olac taring an
article which meets all the require-
ments of the public.
Having reached that desirable posit-
ion, the great object is to stay there.
How? By reason of three things.
First, maintaining quality; second, ad-
vertising; third, salesmanship.
It's a foregone conclusion that the

tation v/hich the company has given us.

idea is by no means the monopoly of the

we must keep our goods on the aforesaid

.\LUMINUIM—AND ITS USP: IX KODAKS

Charles M. Hall, an American
INlad1886,
of twenty-two, discovered what
scientists all over the world had
trj^ing for the greater part of two cent-
uries to learn —a commercially practicable
method for the isolation of aluminum.
Aluminum (or, as the English call
aluminium) is defined as "a light, bluish-
white, malleable and ductile metallic ele-
ment which does not oxidize or tarnish, is
lighter than glass, and by hammering and
rolling becomes hard as iron." Com-
pounds of this metal have been known
since the earliest days of history when
such compoimds played a i)art in the
dyeing of cloth. Beginning in 170''2,
however, various scientists, both in Eu-
rope and in America, began work on the
problem of separating pure alumininn
from its compounds. Their best efforts
served only to get them aluminum as an
alloy with such elements as potassium,
iron, and platinum. During the nine-
teenth century, experiments j)rogressed
rapidly, and, by 1857, aluminum could be
produced in an almost pure state, but at
the prohibitive cost of about $'-25.00 per
pound. was Charles M. Hall, an Ohio

Yes, now you're probably asking how
it, in the world so much of this metal can
possibly be used at Camera Works. That's
an easy one.
First of all, on every Folding Pocket
Kodak that goes out, the backs, beds, bed
covers, walls, and wall light guards are all
made of aluminum. There go a few
thousand pounds, right there. In ad-

for these same parts on all of our Juniors,
and most of the Specials. Stereos like-

The familiar little Vest Pocket Kodak

top and bottom of this well-known in-
strument are made of die-cast metal.
Even the Panorams are not complete
without a little aluminum, for here the

Every suggestion received is carefully
recorded and indexed and is then referred
to the department head and others in the
department with which it has to do.
Without exception the department
heads give every suggestion careful and
thorough consideration as they are natur-
ally most anxious to increase efficiency or
lower costs.
Whenthe suggestion has been reported
on, returned to the Secretary of the
it is
Committee who at stated intervals calls
meetings of the Committee to consider all
suggestions received and recommend as to
their disposal and the amount of the
award if adopted.
The members of the Suggestion Com-
mittee are men having a wide experience
in the affairs of the company, and when
they are not absolutely positive as to the
merits of the suggestion, it is returned to
the Secretary for further investigation.
This accounts in a good many instances
for the seeming delay in the consideration
of suggestions.
Without every suggestor is

Quite frequently suggestions are re-
ceived for improvement of product which
call for an expenditure out of proportion
to the benefits to be gained, or when the
improvement of one part would work to
the detriment of some other part.
Regarding simplification of office forms
is with and records, many suggestions are adopted
but sometimes it is found that while the
suggestion would simplify the work of one
employee or one department, it would add
to the work of some other person or de-
partment to an extent exceeding the bene-
fit derived if adopted.
Suggestions regarding the selling or
advertising policy of the company liave
only in rare instances been adopted
because they have been considered before,
used previously, or would conflict with a
definite company policy. Suggestions
along these lines are nevertheless welcome
and will always receive consideration.
There is the suggestion which ])oints out
the obvious thing to do, such, for instance,
as moving a set of scales from one end of a
bench to the other, or installing a lamp to
light up a dark corner or correcting a
typographical error in a previous edition
of a catalogue. Such as these can
scarcely be considered for awards.
and in all likelihood
It has hap])ened,

rejected by the committee has later been
put into operation without the knowledge
of the committee. In such case, the
suggestor has but to call the matter to the
attention of the Secretary of the Com-
mittee and it will be investigated and
taken up at a committee meeting.
Being the Secretary of a suggestion
committee is no snap; being a member of
the committee calls for hard work and
close attention, and as all its members are
human they may sometimes make an
error —
but when they do, you will find
them mighty glad to correct it. So send
in your suggestions and help keep up
our high record for suggestions adopted.

situated west of the Ridge Road and

Just as the Statue of Liberty greets the
foreigner previous to his entry to x\merica
by way of the Port of New York, so do
the two chimneys at Kodak Park attract
a stranger's eye on a clear day. But
soon there will be another "giant"" domi-
nating the Park and the landscape for
miles around, for, at Kodak Park West,
there is nearing com])letion a stack that
will rival the two 366 footers. The new
power house will be one-half the size of
the one at Kodak Park East.
Our chemical industry has grown by
leaps and bounds. In fact, there is no
more space at Kodak Park East that can
be given over to the manufacture of
chemicals. The only alternative is to
move the chemical industry to Kodak
Park West and consequently the buildings
—
to be constructed at the new location, are
to house this branch of manufacturing.
The departments that will eventually be
located at Kodak Park West are the Cot-
ton Storage, Nitrating, Flash Powder,
Synthetic Chemicals and others relative
to them. Quite a change!
A Service Building, with a dining room
for the yardmen and mechanics, has
already been built. ^Sleals, cooked at the

The classification yard, where all cars
destined for Kodak Park East and Kodak

of the new area, adjoining the Buffalo,

We Kodakers are again looking to the

session of your faculties. Most of the
wills which are overthrown or attacked
in the courts on the ground of undue
influence or mental incapacity are made
by persons who have begun to suffer from
the effects of old age. The making of a
will is an act requiring careful and
thoughtful effort which good health alone
can afford.
What Should A Will Contain ?
Of course, the contents of a will depend
upon the needs of the individual case.
Generally speaking, the more simple a will
is, the better. The prime purpose is the
distribution of the property to the family
in a way that will be most equitable and
wise under the particular circumstances.
In the case of a man having a wife and
small children, ordinarily the best course
is to leave all the property to the wife and
appoint her as executrix. She is the
person upon whom the responsibility of
caring for the children w411 rest and if she
has shown herself to be a capable woman,
she should have all the assets there are to
help her in her struggle aufl should not be
hampered by trusts or any other "strings"
attached to the property which would
make it difficult for her to use it at the
time and in the manner which her best
judgment would dictate.
You should be careful even though you
are leaving all your property to your wife
to provide that she, as executrix, shall
have the power to sell the real estate, as,
otherwise, if a child should ])c lioru after
the making of the will and you should
neglect to change it after the birth, your
wife could not sell the real estate without
going through the legal proceeding pre-
viouslv referred to.
11
A J]'ill May Be Changed
Perhaps one of the reasons why people
delay in the matter of drawing their wills
is the fear that they may change their
minds after the will is drawn and they,
therefore, desire to wait until they are
,,
sure of what they want to do. It is w^ell
to bear in mind that a will does not take
effect until the time of the death of the
person who makes it (called the testator),
and, therefore, a will may be revoked and
a new will made at any time, or a will may
be changed by adding to it by what is
called a Codicil. The proper course to
pursue is to decide upon what you want
to do under existing conditions, have your
will drawn based upon those conditions,
and, in case such a change occurs in the
conditions as makes a new will or a codicil
advisable, to make that change without
delay.
Two events entering into the testator's
life affect automatically a will previously
made, namely the birth of a child, (2)
(1)
marriage. The such birth and
effect of
marriage is substantially the same. Unless
the surviving child or the husband or wife,
as the case may be, is provided for or in
some way mentioned in the will or is
provided for by a separate settlement,
such child or husband or wife takes the
same share in the estate as though no will
had been made. The will, however, still
governs the distribution of the remainder
of the property. Care should be taken,
therefore, in case either of these events
happens, to make a new will at once.
Where a new will is made, the old one
should not be left lying around, but
usually should be entirely and totally
destroyed. The reason for this is that if,
after the testator's death, the new will
cannot be located, the old will may be
probated and thus the testator's intentions
fail of being carried out.
Danger of A "Home-Made" Will
The law requires that a will be executed

Although Folmer-Century is not represented in
the Kodak League this year by a plant team, sev-

race. The Hawk-Eye team, last year's champs, is
counting heavily on the services of "Pat" Petroske,
"Herbie" Graf, McCormack and Fleming. With
the Main Office, one finds Perrin at first base and
Drabinski in the outfield. Gawer and Chernis have
also played with the Office team. Petroske, Perrin

About eighty members of the department motored
to the grounds where dinner was served at one
o'clock.
Haywood G. DeMey presided over the festiAities
at the dinner. Mrs. Howard R. Patterson rendered
several piano solos that were much appreciated.
Ralph H. Smith scored heavily with his vocal solos.
After the dinner, a ball game between the
Engineers and Draftsmen was staged, the Engineers
winning, twenty to nineteen, after nine innings of
wild baseball. For seven innings the Draftsmen
led by a large margin but following the retirement
from the game of their chief draftsman their chances
went glimmering. Captain Hands, umpire in chief,
was forced to call several conferences on close
decisions. Admiral Dewey and Skipper John Jones
always agreeing that the Drafting Room was at
fault. The Engineers felt much elated as this was
first victory over the Draftsmen and particularly
delighted that they defeated Julius C. Voss, who
stood them on their heads at the last two outings.
George Kingston was captain of the Engineers while
Lee Hastings directed the Drafting outfit.

AUGUST THIRTEENTH, THE DATE
Remember the Foremen's Club Outing at Cobourg
last September? If you attended, you can't forget
it. If you didn't, you heard plenty about it for
weeks after.
This year another trip is to be made to the .same
place. The date is Saturday, August l.'Uh, and the
General Committee has been working on arrange-
ments since the 1st of June. Nothing is being
overlooked and every effort is being made to outdo
last season's outing if j)ossible.
The larger of the two boats has been chartered for
the day. The boat train will leave the B. R. & P.

convenience of the wives and children living up
town. For the convenience of the members this
train will stop at Uptonville. Ridge Road at 12:20

KOD.\K PARK TENNIS TEAM
HARD PRESSED
Despite the fact that Kodak Park is playing very
good tennis we have not won a single match to date.
This is due entirely to the high caliber of the other
teams in the League. The Rochester Tennis Club
has a team composed of players of exceptional
ability, many of whom are nationally known, as also
the Melville Club. Dewey Avenue, although de-
feated in its first matches with the above-men-
tioned teams, was able to win from Kodak Park
by several points, showing that it too is a fast
aggregation.
Conditions regulating the eligibility of players
however are different at Kodak Park than with the
others. The other three clubs are organizations
devoted entirely to tennis and are aVjle to secure
members and players from where they will, whereas
Kodak Park uses only men who are emplo>ed at the
Works. This in a sense limits our possibilities and
it is probable that our place is in the industrial field
where all teams would be on an equal footing.
Manager Willis, however, is not discouraged and
feels confident that with a little more practice our
team will round out into shape to take a match or
two from the other contenders. Thompson and
Wilson are both improving and from now on should
account for wins in the remainder of the schedule.
Any player of ability not now playing on the team
is requested to get in touch with Manager Willis and
he will be given an opportunity to try out for a
position.

WANTED
Although the Kodak Park baseball team this
season is not all that it might be under more favor-
able conditions, nevertheless, it is felt that the lack
of support on the part of employees is to some
extent, at least, responsible for the showing made to

be built in one year. The Kodak Park line-up

CARNIVAL AND RACES BIG HIT

9th. Although the attendance was not as large as
anticipated those who were present returned well
satisfied with the affair from start to finish. The
carnival spirit prevailed, various types of costumes,
colored hats and other grotesque articles of apparel
being in evidence in all parts of the grounds. One
of the most popular spots was the "Gypsy" tent
where Mary Mahan told fortunes to those inquisi-
tive as to their future.
The sports and races were run off on the la-mi in
front of the dance pavilion, the most amusing of the
events being the Needle, Tnread, and Cigarette Race.
The attempts of the men to thread the needles and
the girls to light the cigarettes held in the lips of their
partners resulted in some amusing antics. This
event was won by Susan LaDine and "Don"

awarded to Mary Mahan, that for the most comical
to Dorothy Myers, while the rtost original was won

The hit of the afternoon was Farley's Bathing

various and somewhat questionable designs did a

Athletics romped home with the first win over our
championship team, on June U)th.This was a good
opening for the old jinx, and it proceeded to ad-

game, which we lost to our old rivals, the Camera
Works. The score, 11—8, for five innings, tells the
story of a weird game, but Hawk-Eye had the Camera
boys on the run when T'mpire ]Murphy called the
game at six bells. In fact it would have been any-
body's game up to eleven o'clock and we had to quit
with only five rounds played. The third of our
defeats came on July 3rd. when we lost to the Big
Brothers team at the Bausch and Lomb field by the
score of 7— 6. We had the game tucked away in
our hip pocket until the ninth when the storm
broke and the Big Brothers came through witli

In all three games the victors knew that they were
playing a real ball team. Moreover, the successive
defeats did not break or lower the morale of J. Russell
Craib's players. Their game with White City on
July 10th, showed that they still had the old Hawk-
Eye fighting spirit. The Tenters encountered us
after winning five straight, but bowed in defeat
before "Doc's" WTecking crew. A score of 10 —
usually indicates a good nip and tuck battle, and
such it was, being marred only by poor umpiring.
The l)oys themselves feel that they liave shaken
off the jinx, and will now battle whomsoever they
meet with the same spirit and success that charac-
terized the early season's games.
Those Hawk-Eyetes who haven't supported the
team as they did last year are urged to begin now.
Watch the bulletin boards each week, learn where
the team is to play and be on hand to cheer the boys
on to victory.

DANCE AND MOONLIGHT RIDE
The chief social events on the Athletic Associa-
tion's calendar for July were a complimentary dance
at Island Cottage and a "Moonlight." The dance
was given on Monday, July 11th. under the joint
auspices of the Hawk-E\e and Island Cottage base-
ball teams. Naturally there was much baseball
talent, and talk, in evidence, and the crowd was
about equally divided between the followers of the
two organizations. An orchestra including Harold
Groh and Carl Fischer supplied music that pleased
everyone.
The dance was a preliminary to the more pre-
tentious event, the second annual Moonlight Ride,
which was run off the Friday following the dance.
As in the case of the dance, it was engineered by
"Doc" Craib, "Bill" Schlegel and the Hawk-Eye
baseball team. The steamer Glenn, loaded with a
comfortable crowd, left Charlotte at nine o'clock for
a trip up and down the lake. Although the boat
was a half hour late in leaving, several couples
were even later and were left on the dock.
The Island Cottage baseball team, which had
really played the part of host at the dance, was again
out in force and helped materially to make the party
a success. In some parts of the boat, however, it
looked like a strictly Hawk-Eye family affair for
there was a good sprinkling of children that romped
about in every place open to them and in general had
as good a time as their elders.
When the boat had cleared the piers at the en-
trance to the river and began to feel the long swell of
MEN'S SAUSAGE ROAST
Did you ever hear of a sausage roast without
sausage.' A score of men from the factory and
office almost did. on July Hth. The affair was
stigated by "Red" Sondheim, "Larry" Tarnow and
Carl Fischer, with the connivance of the Lunch
Room management, and it was the last factor that
almost brought the whole party to grief.
They started from the Y. M. C. A. boathouse on
the river and their war canoes arrived at a chosen
spot opposite Baker's farm at about seven o'clock.
Those who had paddled immediately made an effort
to cool off in the lukewarm Genesee, while those who
had acted merely as ballast ("Bill" Roach and
Harry Althoff for instance) rested under the trees
after their exertions. "Pat" Mengel charmed the
audience on the bank with his pretty swimming,
while George Kosel demonstrated his famous walrus
dive, in the course of which he stirred up most of the
mud in the river.
Meantime a baseball game had been started, with
the avowed some unused
object of limbering up
muscles. "Wib" Woodams and "Ray" Farmen
were most successful in this, the former ])y pitching
and the footwork out in the
latter l)y his excellent
garden. Xeitlier wandered far from his desk the
next day. It was noticeable that something was
lacking in the game, until Elmore Ingleby of the
"big" team and lanky "Cliff" Johnson of the scrubs
added their expert efl'orts.
The sports gave everyone an excellent appetite and
as soon as they were over the cooks were called on to
21
Lake Ontario, some of the folks worried a little. Xor
did ithelp much to see George Brennan pacing
back and forth with a bathing suit under his arm, as
if waiting for the worst to happen. And yet most
of the crowd soon found their sea legs, and when the
music began they forgot their imaginary trouVjles.
Moreover, the moon, which had apparently been
unaware of our presence up to this time, .slid out
from behind a cloud and dutifully flooded the lake
with a silver brilliance that made one oblivious to
such trifles as the gentle swells and a superannuated
boat. From the direction of the stern, where Harold
Groh's five-piece orchestra was holding forth, cau'c
haunting strains that made it difficult to sit still.
Frieda Topel and "Red" Strickland were the star
performers on the dance floor in the stern, while
"Dick" Wiemer led a party that invaded the cabin
for the same purpose.
But by far the largest part of the crowd simply sat
and enjoyed what they had come to enjoy, the —
moonlight. It was noticeable that the bow was the
—
most popular spot for the moon gazers, indeed it
was so popular that it made one hesitate to intrude
on the comfortably settled first-comers.
The ride was over before most people realized it,
a fact which is usually an index to the success of a
party. It left no doubt as to the efficacy of the
"MoonHght" as an annual get-to-gether and the
only regrettable feature was that more Hawk-Eye
people were not able to be there to enjoy it.
do their duty. It was at this point that "Larry,"
who had been nosing about the boxes and baskets,
in- discovered the gi'eat dearth of "wieners." A hasty
consultation brought out the joyful information that
they must be reposing in the Hawk-Eye refrigerator
ten miles away. "Red" Sondheim and "Bob"
Meinhard thereupon made a wild dash for the Works
by canoe, auto and shoe-leather express and returned
just as the shades of night were falling, and "Jimmy"
Weldon's ire rising.
However, peace was restored with the arrival of
the "hots." "Gene" Easterly. George Brennan and
Frank Quetchenback did terrible execution among
them but it was noticed that "Ed" Meinhanl.
Harvey Putnam and "Jim" Lucy reserved their
strength for the salad. i)astry and coffee. Somebody
reported that "Van" ^"an Doren furnished the only
reai casualty of the evening when he stepped into the
nuistard. Another version says that two or three,
notably "Bill" Springer, were slightly burned in one
way or another before the evening's activities were
over, probably because of the proximity of the fire.
Before leaving it was decided to suspend sentence
in tiie cases of the delinquent custodians of the
"wieners," on condition that they would forthwith

plan another sausage roast, with sausage.

H. E. A. A. DANCE
The first dance of the summer, given by the Hawk-
Eye Athletic Association at Cain's Dance Tavern,
proved a very enjoyable affair. The super-heated
condition of the atmosphere was undoubtedly in-
strumental in keeping away a number of our jazz
devotees,— at least they weren't there, —but this
fact did not seem to detract from the enjoyment of
those who did take advantage of the excellent floor
and music. Financially the result was not phenom-
enal, but the small difference between income and
outgo showed up on the right side of the ledger.
"Bill" Schlegel, situated at the door, wore a rather
worried look until the danger mark in the admissions
had been passed. Then he leaned back to philoso-
phize on the carelessness of some people in "passing
up" such a splendid hop.
The committee consisted of Alice Gears, Ruth
Kurtz, Lillian Wilson, George Brennan, William
Schlegel and Robert Meinhard, Chairman.

THIRD PRIZE ESSAY
BY HENRY DEAN WADSWORTH
This is a subject upon which a great amount of
time and thought could be spent, and still it could
not be covered in all its details. But there are sev-
eral specific reasons why it means nnich to me.
In the first place, before coming to work for the
Eastman Kodak Company, the word "Kodak" con-
veyed no other meaning to me than that it was the
name of a well-kno^\-n camera. When
the Kodak
Magazine was first published, I was greatly sur-
prised to find how little I actually knew about the
company for which I worked. As I read and re-read
the articles pertaining to the development and the
organization of the company and its l)ranches in all
parts of the world, I was greatly surprised at its
magnitude. Those articles to nie were an education
in themselves. I was also more than impressed l)y
the example of success brought only through hard
work and perseverance.

TRANSPORTATION BY GRAVITY
During the month of !March lO'iO. one hundred
eighty-eight thousand, foiu- himdred twenty-five
cameras passed througli the inspection department
in twenty-five working days. An average of seven
thousand, five hundred thirty-seven per day or
nine hundred forty-two each hour I How about
transportation? ^Miich is the quickest way to
"feed"" the inspectors, and how can they send the
imperfect cameras back to the assembling depart-
ment and receive them again for re-inspection in the
shortest possible time?
This almost soimds akin to the famous Thomas
Edison "Tests." It was a problem which confront-
ed the management of the Camera Works. If the
factory were so built as to have the inspection
department a hub within the asseml)ling depart-
ments, it would have been a comparatively simple
matter to transport the product on endless belts, but
physical conditions require that the in.spection and
assembling departments not only be on different
levels, but in different buildings.
Even in the days when Kodaks were manufactured
by the dozens instead of the thousands, the trans-
portation problem from department to department
loomed large. It would, or rather did. require a
small army of errand boys, loaded ^^nth various
sized trays or boxes containing varieties and quanti-
ties of cameras, going through departments, up
stairs, on elevators, or else loading trucks and
trundling them on to freight elevators and thence
to their destination. All this consumed valuable
time (elevators and errand boys being somewhat
temperamentalj and, in consequence, the Lamson
Gra^nty Conveyor was installed to solve the problem.
The Lamson Conveyor is constructed of ball
bearing rollers, forming a series of run-ways, the
frames of which are suspended at any angle desired.
Boxes containing cameras are fed on to the conveyor
through sharply declined "loading stations.""
The boxes, upon reaching the rollers, are car-
ried along by their o'wn momentum. Should the
track or run-way prove too long a span for convey-
ance by natural gra^^ty, or should the boxes travel
""
an incline, an endless belt, known as a'" booster,
driven by a one H. P. motor, rotates directly under
the rollers, thus supplying power to "up-hill"
tracks in order to reach a peak to start the containers
or boxes traveling by gra\'ity.
This speed of travel is naturally controlled by the
angle at which the run-ways are suspended, but,
in order to avoid too quick a feed onto the roll-
ers, "spring wings" control the boxes as they are
dropped down the chute from the assembling de-
partments. The rim-ways lead to a specially con-
structed elevator, which automatically lifts the
E R A
K S
S. THORPE
boxes from the rollers, carries them to a higher
and places them on the run-way which con-
level,
veys the product to the Inspection Department.
The assembling departments are equipped with
return lines for empty containers or cameras to be
repaired, which is an entirely different system from
the main line. An ingenious arrangement separates
the different types of cameras made in the depart-
ments in building number nine, the various models
of folding Kodaks being loaded into tlu-ee boxes of
different heights. The separating contrivance con-
sists of a series of arches located at the junction of
the return line which only allows one particular Ijox,
according to height, to pass on to one of the three
side tracks. The longest traveling distance is from
the Vest Pocket Kodak Department. A loaded box
or container requires one and one-half minutes of
travel, consisting of two hundred ninty-one feet, to
the elevator, and another one and one-half minutes
to ride the elevator and the run-way to the unloading
point in the Inspection Department.
The elevator is a story all of itself, and must be
seen to be appreciated. One could almost load it
with boxes of eggs and guarantee that not one would
be jarred or spilled, so smoothly does the elevator
ride. An endless chain revolves on two huge gears
and fitted to the chain are eight shoulders or cars,
which lift the boxes gently from the rim-ways,
transport them at a delicate balance over the top of
the dri\-ing gear and land them on the inspection
track. The cars being equally distanced on the
chain thus regulate the flow of boxes onto the rollers.
Should the terminal in the Inspection Department
become blocked vrith boxes, an automatic breaker
cuts the circuit and stops the elevator, thus doing
away with any danger of confusion or damage. A
box straightener is installed to line up the boxes after
they are lifted from the terminal of the rollers onto
the elevator.
The empty boxes are sent back to the departments

OUR SUMMER DANCES

We are very interested in Summerville this
summer, principally on account of the .series of
dances which the Recreation Club is conducting.
Speaking as a Club member, and not as an adver-
tising agent, this particular feature is as attractive
a proposition as has been offered to the folks who
like to dance. Not only are the conditions ideal for
this pastime at Cain's Tavern, but the crowd is .so
nice and "chummy. " Shields' Orchestra has caught
up the spirit of prevailing friendliness and the music
fits into the general scheme of everybody having a
good time.
The dances are by no means a money-making
proposition. Following out the .slogan which the
Recreation Club has adopted of " A Hobby for Every
Member, "the Board of Managers deemed it wise to
promote a .series of dances and we were fortunate in
securing such a beautiful hall situated, as it is, where
the lake breezes fan the dancers
By the time this magazine is published the .series
will have almost finished. The month of August
shows two dances, one on the fifth and the last of
this summer's group on the nineteenth Let us all
make a special mark on our calendar to be there, at

the good work which the Recreation Club is doing.

reasonable expense. You do not want to
be "faked" in treatment or "buncoed"
out of your money.
Unfortunately, there are physicians in
this city who are both "fakers" in treat-
ment and adepts at the bunco game of
getting your money.
The fact that they operate behind a
mask of respectability and are members
of an honored profession, with but few
of the outstanding obvious characteris-
tics of the charlatan, makes them
to detect.
our purpose from time to time to
It is
point out to you as clearly as possible, the
earmarks and general characteristics of
some of these frauds, so that you may
recognize the danger signals and so pro-
tect yourself.
There isdoctor who, either by
the
wheedling, bluff, or specious argiunent,
endeavors to secure a deposit before be-
ginning his treatment.
The usual argument is that, to effect a
cure, a more or less lengthy (according to
how he sizes up your l)ank roll) course
of treatment will have to be followed, and
that by securing a deposit he will be as-
sured that you will follow it through. That
is danger signal numl^er one, as the rep-
utable, upright physician considers it
absolutely unethical to accept an advance
fee.
The doctor who pretends to be able to
prescribe a course of treatment that will
effect a cure, based on his first
is, to say the least, taking an exceedingly
long chance.
The condition of the various vital
organs in the human body varies greatly
SEPTEMBER, 19^21 Xo. 4
in different persons; one may have a
strong heart, another a weak one; another
person may have high blood pressure, or
possess a liver or pair of lungs either
al)ove or below normal function.
For these reasons, bodily conditions
may, and do, often alter greatly in the
space of twenty-four hours or even less.
Under these conditions, a course of treat-
ment perhaps successful up to a certain
period, may, if continued, result in
disaster.
This is danger signal number two; be a
difficult bit skeptical of the abilities of a physician
who offers to lay out a course of treatment
and assures a cure within a given period.
Frequently this type of fakers lay
claim to the possession of certain drugs
from mythical far-off climes unknown to
the rest of the medical fraternity, with
which tliey are able to effect their
" marvelous " cures.
This is danger signal number three!
This "secret" stuff is all bosh. Evers'
progressive doctor is posted up to the
minute as to drugs new and old and
where they may be obtained. There are
no secrets between reputable doctors;
the results of their experiences are always
passed on for the benefit of all the pro-
fession.
All fakers are cowards at heart and will
surely disclosethe weakness of their
claims if you will but l)e on the alert for
danger signals.
The reputable, honest physician will
not demand an advance fee; he will not
diagnosis, "lay out a course of treatment" and
definitely promise a cure, and he will
lay no claims as to the possession of
unequalled abilities or to the exclusive
access to remedies.

A STATISTIC AL RAMBLE
MYSTICAL-LOOKING
A recently prepared, bears the
"Summary, Showing the Age and Length
document,
title of
of Service, Classified as to Sex and Plant,
of all Employees Eastman Kodak
of the
Company in the United States and Cana-
da." "Sounds dry as a bone," did you
say.' Nevertheless, that document packs
a whole lot of meaty and interesting
"dope" under its shell. Things that you
probably never knew, and would have to
work hard to find if you should happen to
want them in a hurry.
For instance, can you tell us:
The average age of Kodak employees?
The age of the youngest Kodak worker?
The age of the oldest?
How long people usually stay with the
company ?
At what plant they stay longest?
This summary tells that the average
age of all Kodak employees in the Lnited
States and Canada is 31 66 years. For
.
men, it is 34.84 years, and for women
25 17. The youngest employees of the
.
company are two boys thirteen years
old, while the oldest employee is a man
of eighty. The oldest woman in the
Kodak employ is seventy years of age.
This report shows that the average
length of service of Kodak employees is
4.72 years. This, by the way, is an ex-
ceptional record, as there are very few
large concerns in the country which have
a continuous service average as high as
this. In many concerns, they find it
necessary to compute this figure in terms
of months, rather than years. The
average record of Kodak men is 5.35 years.
3.44 years is the duration of the average
woman employee's stay with the com-
pany. Premo Works has the distinction
of holding its male employees longest with
an average of 7.45 years, while for women,
the record is held by the ]Main Office,
where the average time is 4.19 years.
these danger signals so you may avoid the
it faker and be assured of honest treatment
for for an honest fee.
Nearly one-fifth of all Kodak employees
have been with the company between
one and two years. The figures for both
men (1864) and women (1189) are higher
at this place than at any other point in the
length of service chart.
More men in the Kodak employ are 28
years old than any other age. 354 is the
count at this age. The peak for girls is at
the age of 20. Here the total is 448.
But, Cupid must do hea\y execution at
about that age, for, at the 21 mark, the
figures —
take a l:»ig drop down to 278.
There's a slight increase the following
year, but, starting with the age of 24, the
number of Kodak girls decreases steadily.
Of course, with a concern as young as
Kodak, it is impossible to find any of the
half-century records of which one oc-
casionally hears with longer-established
businesses. Some of our people, however,
have a good start toward the fifty-year
mark. The dean of all Kodak employees
in point of length of service is August
Knight of the Camera Works, who, on
November 12th next, will complete thirty-
six years with the company. William H.
("Pop") Durfee, of the Main Office, fol-
lows close behind Mr. Knight with a
thirty-four years record. Another old-
timer is "Charlie" Johnson, of the Main
Office,with thirty-three years to hiscredit.
Also in the thirty-three year class are three
Camera Works people, Tene Sommerville,
Harry Briggs and Frank Dreimiller.
Altogether, the company has 25 em-
ployees who have been here for thirty
years or more, 90 with a record of twenty
five years or over, 300 who have been on
the job for two decades, and the large
total of 642 whose service record totals at
least fifteen years.
When these figures were compiled on
March 31, 1921, the company employed
in the United States and Canada 10,053
men, and 4,935 women.

CAMPAIGN GETS NEW MEMBERS FOR SAVINGS
AND LOAN ASSOCIATION
When tlie announcement was made in the Kodak
Magazine last January that the Eastman Savingsand
Loan Association was ready to do business, a large
number of the employees of the company immedi-
ately availed themselves of this opportunity to
participate in a practical thrift movement and
became members. It gradually appeared that
the percentage of members was considerably
smaller at Kodak Park than in the other local
factories, which resulted in the decision to conduct
a campaign.
The drive was opened on July 1st, no definite
time limit being set for the closing. Throughout
the campaign, the "thrift" point has been the
strongest selling argument, and the returns at

Hauser for Tuesday, September 13th. At this time
matters of special importance will be discussed,
including the arrangements for the Third Annual
Show which is to be held in the Assembly Hall
during the latter part of November. This will leave
about two months to arrange the numerous details
which is none too long. In order to surpass the two
previous exhibits, special efforts must be made.
This year it is planned to accept all types of fur
and feather-bearing stock. As usual, a small

10 THE KODAK ^LVGAZIXE
FOREMEN'S CLUB— SECOND ANNUAL OUTING
Saturday August 13th, was the big day. At last
the clock dragged aroiuid to noon and the procession
marched out the Ridge Road to the Uptonville
station to take the train for the Genesee docks.
COBOLRG BOUND
After a madscramble, however, all were at last
aboard and the good ship Ontario Xo. '2 slipped her
moorings promptly at one o'clock. So we started
on the Second .\nnual Outing of the Kodak Park
Foremen's Club, bound for Cobourg.
After a hurried rush for the desirable places on the
decks, with the hmch baskets and boxes stowed
away, we lined up along the railing and waved and
cheered at anything until we passed the light house.
OX BOARD THE ONTARIO
Here everyone proceeded to attack, in block forma-
tion, the afore-mentioned lunch baskets. A short
time was allowed for that overloaded feeling to work
off, and then "our own Jimmy" Hart took up his
megaphone and started to assemble the people on
the upper deck for the sports of the afternoon.
There were mass games and guessing contests and
children's stunts, each event causing its own share of
amusement. The featiu-e of the afternoon was the
tug-of-war between teams captained by Frank
Hauser and John Shepherd. Both sides boasted of
good men and heavy, the betting being about even.
After a long and strenuous pull, Frank's team won.
Through it all, Harris Tuttle with his "movie"
camera, and "Jim" Trayhern with an assorted
collection of all kinds of Kodaks and cameras, took
picture after picture from every conceivable place
and position.
At last the boat docked in Cobourg, and we all
went ashore. We walked up a block and down two
to the end of the town, where we found upon inquiry
that we were in Victoria Park. Some of us danced
to t>-pical Canadian music and the rest of us had
another ice cream.
The retm-n trip was equally delightful. James
"Ziegfeld" Hart again in charge, showed us what
he had been doing on his vacation the two weeks
previous to the Outing, and had everything with the
exception of Al Jolson, and Jack Dempsey on his
bill. Everyone who could possibly do so crowded
in the reception saloon and some more of us sat
outside on the deck where we could at least hear
the music.

CAMERA CLUB PREPARING GOLF TOURNAMENT THIS MONTH

WINTER SCHEDULE
After the summer intermission, meetings of the
Camera Club are to be resumed on Tuesday,
September 20th. This will be a business meeting
to make arrangements for the fall and winter
activities. The members are urged to be present,
promptly at 5:45 in the Assembly Hall.
The first lecture of the 1921-1922 season will be
given the latter part of October. This feature of the
Club activity was very j)()i)ular last winter. The
Committee in charge of llie program for the coming
months is at work, and will announce a completed
schedule in the near future. The practice adopted
last spring of having supper served before the
meetings and lectures, resulted in a much larger
attendance, and will be continued this year.
Entries for the Third Semi-.\nnual Exhibit will
close on Friday, October 28th. The oj)ening date
of the Exhibits is November 1st. This Exliibit will
be devoted to "vacation" {)ictures and tiie usual
awards will be made. Menibers are urged to jire-
pare their work in plenty of time, as it is hoped to
make this the largest and best contest we have vet
had.
Kodak Park's latest sport activity, golf, has
taken quite a hold, and the success of the first season
warrants its continuation. Preparation for the
handicap tournament has been under way since
spring. Records of the scores made by the players
have been kept and from these handicaps were
assigned for the final play-otf this month.
Only four men have been placed in Class "A",
Fred and George Willis; Walter Taylor; and Albert
Meyne. The playing of these men is somewhat
above the average, and they will be forced to give
some advantage to their opponents.
At the end of the tournanient, it is planned to
have the Champion and Runner-up from Kodak
Park meet the persons finishing in similar positions
in the Kodak Office tournament, which is being
conducted along like lines, for the Championship
of the Eastman Com{)any. There are a few good
players at llic Ilawk-Eye and Camera Wt)rks. and
if [lossible to make
satisfactory arrangements, they
will also brought in for competition. Here's

BASEBALL
We're inclined to be just a trifle downhearted
about our baseball team this year. As far as
material is concerned, we seem to have plenty, and
of fairly good caliber, on the average. Some of the
boys who are available are mighty good, away
above the average, but somehow we have been
unable to win even a fair share of our games. There
are times when the spirit is the best, and then, for
apparently no reason at all, it is lacking. In prac-
tice, particularly the last few weeks, the team as a
unit was all that might be desired, but when game
time came we finished at the short end. ____
____
The teams of Hawk-Eye, Camera Works and even
Kodak Office seem to have the "something" that is
necessary to win games and are doing it regularly,
from Kokak Park at least, but when the season
closes and we put away our paraphernalia, we are
not going to "cry over spilt milk." What we are
going to do is to try to work up whatever is neces-
sary to have a real good ball team and have that
team ready when the season opens next year.

FALL SOCCER SCHEDULE
Last spring, Kodak Park boasted of the best team
ever signed to represent a Rochester soccer club,
and only lack of practice and playing together kept
them from winning every match played. Prospects
for the fall were unusually good until the misfortime
of losing three of the best men befell the outfit.
Morrison, Clegg, and Scott, the latter rated as the
best inside left ever seen in the city, were lost to the
Park, making a big hole in the Kodak's off'ense. This
loss in a measure is compensated by the return of
Frearson, a former Kodak player.
Play will be resumed the latter part of the month,
and a strong bid will be made for the honors in
the local League. At present, Kodak Park is one
point behind the Celtics, whom they met early in
the season.
The officers of the Kodak Park Soccer Club for
this season are: President, George Izard; Vice-
President, Ralph Breary; Treasurer, Lee Rife;
Manager, Edward Allardice; and Secretarv, Fred
Collett.

KODAK PARK COMMITTEE VISITS
When we stop to think that the city of Rochester
has one of the finest Hospitals for Infants in the
country, and that we are helping to pay for the
treatment of tlie poor little unfortunates through
our contribution to the Community Chest, we
should feel mighty proud. Aside from feeling of
—
pride we should also feel interest, and show it.
Walk out Beach Avenue the next time you are
at the Lake, and see how pleased Miss Jones, the
Superintendent, will be to show you through your
hospital.
Almost two hundred sick babies and children
have been treated at the Infants' Summer Hospital
so far this year and there is still another month
before it closes; all without charge of any kind to
anyone. Your money helps to do this. Isn't it
worth a great deal to know that you are helping to
make some sick or crippled child well or more com-
fortable.^
FIRST DANCE IX OCTOBER
Lovers of the terpsichorean art will be happy to
learn that the K. P. A. A. is planning to run the
usual series of dances during the coming winter.
The first event will be on Friday, October ^Sth.
The Committee, with Dr. D. E. Reid, President
of the Association, as Chairman, is already at work.
Numerous stunts and schemes are being considered.
The intention is to make
the parties this winter of
a most novel nature, and the ingenuity of those in
charge will be taxed to the utmost to provide this
distinction, as practically every conceivable novelty
has been furnished at the Kodak Park parties in the
past.
As usual, tickets will be sold in advance and the
efforts of the Committee in charge will be devoted
to having the attendance as exclusively of Kodak
Park employees and their friends as possible.
Excellent music is promised; so you are assured
of a good dance with plenty of interesting accom-
panying features.

BABY HOSPITAL AT LAKE
This was the first visit to the Hospital for most of
the Committee, and words fail to express the fine
impression it left with them. The excellent condi-
tions, cleanliness, and efficient care all go to make
up an ideal institution. Besides Miss Jones, the
Superintendent in charge, there are resident phy-
sicians, as well as visiting physicians who call every
day and see each patient. A staff of nurses is on
duty and a graduate dietitian prepares the food for
the youngsters. The hospital will be open until
October 1st, and, on behalf of Miss Jones, we urge
you to pay a visit.

Everyone reached the rendezvous in time for a
which was served at the

Skipper Louis "Spike" Behrndt acted as host for
a moonlight ride among the islands of Sodus Bay
on his cruiser I.sland Queen. After a few thrilling
"near accidents," the party reached Rochester
again shortly after midnight.
On Tuesday, August 16th, Anna E. Kurtz of^the

judging from the exceptionally few matches which
went by default, the K. P. A. A. trophy is a much-
coveted honor. The details have been in the hands
of Dr. F. E. Ross of the Research Laboratory,
whose untiring interest is in a large measure re-
sponsible for the success of the season's tournament.
To date, the Kodak Park team has played only
the matches in the Rochester Tennis League, no
effort having been made until the completion of
this schedule to arrange independent games. Can-
andaigua.and two or three other old rivals are clam-
oring for a chance at the Park players and will
probably be accommodated within the next few
weeks.
Kodak's win over Dewey made third place a pos-
which, by all who are in touch with actual
sibility,
conditions, is considered doing very well. Manager
Willis and his team are doing their best, which is
appreciated, and have the distinction of being the
best industrial outfit in the section, as well as the
only team of the kind entered in the Rochester
League.
COATERS AT GRAND VIEW
The employees of the Black Paper Coating De-
partment held their annual outing at Grand View
Beach. First the bunch tackled a five-course
dinner served on the Hotel veranda, following
which Albert J. Bowers, the department official
photographer, took four or five "'shots" at the
boys for a group picture.
The ball game between the married and single
men was won by the former, the score being 2-2 to 8.
The feature of the game was a throw from left field
to the plate by "Pete" Haus.

ment.

NOON-HOUR PLAY RESUMED
The exceptionally hot weather during July made
it impossible to open the summer schedule of the
K. P. A. A. Noon-Hour Baseball League as custom-
ary, and days when it was possible to play were
devoted to exhibition games with other Industrial
outfits, or practice games between the League teams.
The time lost will result in only two series being
played this year, the summer schedule being elimi-
nated and the fall games extended to the end of the
season. —
Four teams are again entered the Legion,

ers picked at will from the different departments.

satisfactory results are obtained through this plan
than under the old system of more teams and the
restricting of players to the department a team
represents. Another objection to the old plan was
that good men were kept out of the game because
their departments were not in the League. The
present arrangement is better in every way, and bet-
ter and faster games are possible.
President John Shepherd is putting the necessary
"pep "
into his League and looms as a possible
candidate for Judge Landis's job some time in the
future.
Thomas F. Murray. Jr., and Grover C. Milbee, of
Department 40, are ha\'ing some interesting mo-
ments, discussing the fine points of their recently-
arrived sons.
Dr. C. E. Kenneth Mees returned to Kodak

during which time he visited France and England,
in company with Mr. Eastman.

advice were given to all students, apart from the
lessons taught en masse.
The second class will start very shortly, definite
plans having been made to accommodate about one
hundred students. The curriculum will include the
estimating of distances, exposures, diaphragm stops,
shutter, speed composition, and illustrations of why
failures so often occur. In order to relieve the
technical part of the programme, a motion picture
machine and projection screen have been installed in
the covered court-way, the entrance to which,

SIMPLE IDEA NETS FIFTY DOLLARS
—
William Carroll better known as "Bill" is, at—
the time of wTiting, just starting on his vacation to
Georgian Bay. He told me that the company was
paying most of his expense si
As they say down South: "How come?"
I naturally started to find out — for no one offered
to pay for my holiday, and — I did. Sure enough,
"Bill" had a fifty-dollar roll, which he obtained in
regular order from the cashier, paid by way of a
suggestion voucher.
Just another proof that it isn't always the com-
plicated mechanical suggestion that gets the large
award.
"Bill" operates, or rather has the handling of,
the metal cutting machines, which are fed with
sheets of steel or brass, passed under a knife, and
cut to required size. The strips falling out at the
back of the machine onto a platform, were gath-
ered up, placed on trucks, and wheeled to their niche
in the Stores Department.
The idea was just this. "Bill" removed a truss
rod, and had the trucks converted so as to fit
directly under the slot where the metal falls. This
method not only saved doulile handling of the cut
strips, but also did away with the possibilities of

We had a scare the other day. Heard that a
little bunch of men were making application to the
Secretary to promote a "Crap" Shooting Club.
Sure enough the application was received, but it
read "Trap Shoofiitg.''
Another sport added to the available list of past-
times for Recreation Club members! Fifteen men,
from various parts of the factory, have formed
themselves into an organization, and will bang the
"rocks" every Saturday afternoon until the end of
September.

one's sleeve is not the policy of the Camera Works
management, nor is it on the Recreation Club's
schedule. After having a permanent club for ten
months, the Board of Managers has learned several
interesting facts about how to proportion the
budget, and also about how to cater to the largest
number of people interested in any one phase of
social or recreational activities.
Before seeing how the money was spent, let us
review some of the things the club has done since
October 1st, 1920.
We have maintained about six hundred people
actually engaged in sports, besides giving a free
smoker, a girls' party, and five dances run below
actual cost. Each member has been supplied free
of charge with a club badge and a copy of the
Constitution and By-Laws of the organization. We
have never refused to equip a league, a
department team, a picnic, or an individual with
necessary accessories for sport. We have, of course,
a fair stock of equipment, such as basketball suits,
soccer outfits, clubs, masks and tennis nets, which
will relieve us considerably on next year's resources.
As to the expenditure, assuming the figure spent
as one dollar, these are the approximate proportions.
Bowling 23 cents
Badges 19 cents
Baseball 11 cents
Smoker and Girls' Party 10 cents
Basketball 9 cents
Indoor ball 7 cents
By-Laws and Constitution 9 cents
Gardening Association 6 cents
Breeders' Association 3 cents
Soccer Football and Tennis cent

how to follow the present-day slogan of "The
People Be Pleased.'' The Board of Managers is
striving to get every member actually sharing in the
"doings." If you don't dance, perhaps you play
ball, or— possibly you enjoy checkers, or gardening.
Everyone has a hobby or pastime of some sort or
another, and, if in any way possible, we want to
co-operate with you, and still further add to the
growing list of activities.
—
This month, September the budget for next
year will be decided and a greater proportion will
be given to social gatherings. If you have any
suggestions, send them to the Secretary and we will
gladly discuss them.
Conditions being favorable, the yearly member-
ship campaign for members will take place before
very long. Sell the idea to any new-comers in your
department. You know what the Recreation Club
has done, and what it can do, especially if you reach
a one hundred per cent. mark. The more members
we have, the greater amount of money we can spend.
It's your club. Work for it, and use its service.
EVENING SCHOOLS
Of course, none of you folks need to be reminded
what a splendid opportunity the city of Rochester
offers in evening sciiools. AYe have received posters
from the Mechanics Institute offering fifteen distinct
subjects and the Industrial Relations Department is
ready to enroll prospective students. There is a
special form which must be filled out by employees
in order to receive a refund on their tuition fees,
providing their status is satisfactory. The average
of successes ranks very high among tlie men and
their jobs, and, in consequence, improve their
salaries.
Take advantage of this chance for betterment.
All that necessary is a common school education,
is
a firm purpose, and a determination to come out on
top.

WHY NOT SAVE A CEXT.'
It has been said that if Julius Caesar had put
one cent in the bank of Rome at 3 per cent, com-
pound interest, in twenty-four years it would have
amounted to cents; in forty-seven years it would
-2
have amounted to 4 cents; in ninety-five years it
would have amounted to 8 cents, and if the sum
had been left in the bank it would have doubled
something like eighty times by the year 1921, and
that one cent would have amounted in these 1900
years to more money than there has been coined in
the world to date.
The moral is: Make a little progress each year;
invest in the profit; don't speculate. Be satisfied
with a reasonable return on your money. Put a
few cents or dollars in the bank each week and
watch them grow, Mead Co-operation.

Grand View Beach was again selected for the
Service Department picnic on July 30th and an
especially attractive and original program was
prepared.
The transportation committee of Bob Wood & Co.
had "Picnic Ahead" signs posted along the route to
Grand View. The instrumental music was furnish-
ed by members of the Society Syncopaters, includ-
ing Mrs. Attridge of the Finishing Department.
There was a grand prize drawing and Fern Mac
Donald won a genuine Whixwangle (a queer-looking
beast) while Jack Gunderson, one of the invited
guests from the Sales Department, won the touring
car, but found that it had to be pushed. Freda Ryan
was presented with a tool chest for her lately ac-
quired "flivver."
The dancing, with the attractiveness of
the bathing, somewhat upset the sports program,
but some of the events were rim off and four
valuable prizes awarded.
The finance committee, Harold McCabe, reported
a deficit of $.05 and in view of this, it was suggested
that other picnickers (including the Sales Depart-
ment) get some pointers from the Service Crowd.

NOON-HOUR INDOOR BASEBALL

Although its schedule was completed
original
some time ago, the Indoor League has continued to
function as Hawk-Eye's official entertainer during
the noon hour. The Lucky Strikes have apparently
piled up a safe lead, with the Beechnuts second.
Steady playing has develoj)ed such famous comedi-
ans as Ralph Burhans and Fred ZoUweg, not to
mention "Speedy" Witz.
A picked team tackled an aggregation from the
Main Office on July twenty-first. The Hawk-Eye
wit didn't go so well against the Main Office pitch-
ing, and the State Street hoys blanked us, 4-0.
Burhans a glutt n for punishment, for he invited
is
them down to our hilly field again early in August
and took another trimming to the tune of 3-0. In
the latter game, however, our team showed greater
ability and aggressiveness.
Probably the noisiest game was that played a few
days later between " Weldon's Pets" and the Hawk-
Eye All-Stars. The former won a hectic contest in
which the fur, particularly that of one of the um-
pires, threatened to fly several times.
The "Pets" and the rest will probably play until
they have to use mittens and skates, judging by
their enthusiasm. Long may they play, for their
games supply as much fun and exercise as any
activity that Hawk-Eye has ever seen.

LEADING THE LEADERS

RUSSELL ("DOC") CRAIB LEE YODER

Hawk-Eye Manager
'^ Doc" Craib comes from a long line of ardent
players and baseball fans, and has followed the game—
particularly the semi-pro side of it, closely for a
number of years. "Doc" first interested himself in
Hawk-Eye's team last year. While he had never had
actual expereience ivith the managerial reins before
coming to Hawk-Eye, his services as a steady worker,
and a booster of last years team made him the logical
successor for George Brennan. And the results have
shown that it itas a icise choice!
Camera Works Manager
"Gone are the days when my heart icas young and
gay," says Lee Voder, "but when it comes to baseball,
just icatch us!" Voder has been in the baseball lime-
light at the Kodak-Brownie plant for eleven years, has
been a player on all the representative teams, and has
acted as manager for most of the .<iuccessful ones. Lee
is also a first-division bowler. His boys don't always
win the pennant, but you can bet money on 'em to
finish one-two.

FAKE STOCK SALESMEN AND THEIR METHODS

THERE is no more j^raiseworthy ambi-
tion than the desire to save
invest such savings so as to pro\'ide a
comfortable hving when one's earning
capacity is in the dechne.
The greatest enemies to the successful
realization of this ambition are the fake
promoters and the salesmen of spurious,
fradulent or doubtful stocks.
Unfortunately the laws of the State of
New York do not afford sufficient pro-
tection against rascals of this sort
they have been able to conduct their
operations here with the greatest freedom.
There are too many Get-Rich-Quick
Wallingfords going around getting rich — but vaguely as to the present factory and
quick themselves at the expense of honest
folks —
too often —
most often at the
expense of small investors.
Most of these fakers are
workers and the schemers back of them
are skilled in the use of printer's ink;
we are going to lay baresome of their
general characteristics and methods, so
that you may recognize the species and
so save yourself from loss.
The ''Sucker Zy/.s/"
Many of you have received
worded letter or printed booklet or circu-
lar setting forth the wonderful profits to
be made through the ])urchase of shares
in some corporation, usually located
distant state. How this concern obtained
your name and address may have been a
source of wonder to you. This is easily
explained, however, when you figure how
simple it is to secure names and addresses
—
from the city directory telephone book,
or from lodge membershi]) lists. These
lists of names are often ])asse(l on to other
"
concerns ami are known as "sucker lists.
The "Follow-Up''
and to Usually if you have responded in any
way to a sucker list invitation, and
sometimes when you have not, you are, a
little later, approached by a stock sales-
man who is well trained and a smooth
talker.
Always Future Profits
Thefake stock salesman rarely, if ever,
talks of the merits of his proposition;
rather he seeks to inflame the mind of his
and prospective victim with visions of huge
future profits earned AAithout effort by the
happy o^\ner of shares. If he is selling
shares in a manufacturing concern, he talks
output, and offers no figures to make
— good his claims as to market and ad-
vantage over competing products. Xo
smooth matter what class of "securities" he is
offering he plays up solely to the idea of
future profits.
A Sample Argument
"Why! man, do you want to be just a
plodder your life? Do you want to
all
spend all your days working for someone
else.^ Invest all you can in this proposi-
tion, and in a few years you can be riding
a cleverly around in your limousine. You are not
too much of a coward to take a chance,
are you? Look at the folks right here in
your own town who invested in Kodak
in a —
stock in its early days they took a
chance and now they are on easy street."
The Answer to the "Kodak'' Argument
Yes, the early investors in Kodak took
a c-hance, l)ut it was a chanc-e of a far
different
sort. The founders of the
Kodak Company were not just promoting
a stock sellinggame; they did not ])eddle
stock in Svracuse, Buffalo and Kalama-
 THE KODAK
zoo; they had an idea which they beUeved
in, and worked for unceasingly. The
men behind it w^ere of known integrity
and they were home folks, and
ability;
success came, becavise it was honestly
earned and deserved. If any investment
proposition possesses overwhelming points
of superiority, the money to finance it can
be found right at home don't forget — osition is sound and the people behind
that.
Future Profits Based on Past Successes
It will always be well to bear in mind
that not even a legitimate proposition
can always be sure of success. Good
profits have been made and a large
business has been built up in the
facture of photographicbut filmfilm,
cannot be successfully made in some-
body's basement, nor without expert
help, nor marketed at a profit without a
strong selling organization behind it.
This is equally true of many other com-
modities now on the market.
Keep Cool
When you receive a glowing letter, or
a thrilling prospectus relating to a stock
selling plan, or receive a call
promoter or salesman, don't get "all het
up." Keep in mind the fact that you are
being requested to part yourself from
some of your hard-earned dollars this
wdll serve to keep your temperature
nearer to normal. If your questions are
side-stepped, or answered in any way
not to your satisfaction, do not be bluffed
or bullied into parting with your money.
Refuse to be unduly influenced by the
opinion of an acquaintance or neighbor
use your own head.
The Most Important Thing
If, calm consideration, the propo-
after
sition offered seems to have some merit,
the next thing to do is to ascertain the
character of the men behind it, and their
standing in their own community; this is
of more importance even than the com-
mercial possibilities of the project.
If these men have an established
reputation in their own community
I^IAGAZIXE
character and uprightness, then, you are
taking a chance only as to commercial
success. If they have not this reputa-
tion, the proposition becomes at once a
gamble with not a chance to win so far
as you are concerned.
If you invest in any new proposition,
you must accept some risk. If the prop-
it are honest, you accept only the chance
that it be a success. If it is only a
will
stock-selling scheme, you have not a
single chance —
every card is stacked
against you.
How to Determine
manu-
Many a prospectus affords glowing
business histories of the men back of
or behind —
the plans; these may or may
not be strictly according to facts. Others
gracefully refrain from such personal
history for obvious reasons.
The facts may be had by ^Titing to the
Chamber of Commerce or Board of Trade,
or one of the banks in the city or cities
wherein these parties are located, or by
means of a commercial agency report.
from a Like all large organizations we have many
facilities for information of
obtaining
this nature, and if you feel that the task
is perhaps a bit beyond you, we will be
;
glad to assist. A request to the Editor
of the Kodak Magazine for aid in this
direction will place such information as
we are able to obtain at your disposal.
Get facts, not dreams: then, if the total
seems favorable, apply still another test;
ask any banker how much he would loan
you on the stock.
The foregoing does not mean that
there are no safe stock investments for
—
the small investors but it does mean
investigate before you invest.
Children don't always inherit beautiful

THE PRACTICAL TEST
WHAT THE EASTMAX SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION HAS ACCOMPLISHED
less than one year's time the East-
IXman Savings and Loan Association,
composed of and officered entirely by em-
ployees of the Eastman Kodak Company,
has started over eight thousand men and
women on a plan of systematic saving,
and, in addition, has enabled one hundred
and forty Kodak families to move into
and enjoy homes of their own.
In normal times this wholesome growth
would have been cause for rejoicing; in
the present period of industrial depres-
sion with its inevitable lay-offs and lack
of employment, this money laid by has
proved a godsend.
In many cases, had it not been for this
bit laid by, unemployment would have
had to be faced with practically nothing
to tide over till better times.
Over sixty thousand dollars have been
returned to members of the Association
to meet this temporary need.
On the other hand it is highly encour-
aging to note that in one plant alone,
over three hundred members who have
been laid off are still paying their dues in
the Association.
In almost every case of withdrawal,
the member has expressed a most hearty
appreciation of the plan that had enabled

INSeptember Kodak Magazine, we told
you something about the Photographic
Class which Fred Brehm conducted
throughout the summer for Camera
Works employees. The record of this
class was so exceptional, with only 13%
failures out of l'-200 negatives submitted

soon in the future he would again be
permitted to resume his membership.
It goes without saying that every
member temporarily forced to withdraw
will be welcomed back as a member
if he is re-employed by the Eastman
Kodak Company.
There are a number of employees of
the Eastman Kodak Company who are
not members of the Eastman Savings
and Loan Association. These employees
may not face unemployment, but no one
can hope to be entirely exempt from
sickness and other unanticipated em-
ergencies when a reserve fund would be
more than acceptable. Even if these
emergencies should pass you by, you
cannot too soon begin to save against the
time when your earning days are past.
We all have certain obligations to our
fellow-men; those in a position to do so,
even if they have to strain a point, should
support this Association, which bv its
plan has enabled their less fortunate
fellow employees to meet an emergency.

many men success- the average human being; in other words,
ride a hobby.
Hobbies range all the way from col-
lections of dried flowers to the raising of
blooded horses or cattle.
One of the greatest assets in getting
where you want to get is the power of
concentration; the ability to hold the
whole body and mind to the task to be
done. But hiunaii machinery must have
an occasional rest to do its best work, and
so the ability to relax for a period is almost
of equal value to the power to concen-
trate.
The best form of relaxation is not just
—
merely idleness doing nothing, but the
employment of the faculties in something
that will afford enjoyment, and for the
time being take you out of the ordinary
run of your existence.
Any hobby intelligently pursued is
bound to be beneficial either mentally or
physically, or both. If you haven't a
hobby, get one —but don't ride itto death.

HEALTH IN THE HOME
A COURSE OF FREE LECTURES ON THIS IMPORTANT
MOTHER feels that she has just
about enough to do without having
to look after and worry over sick folks;
—
and Father, well, you know how he
feels on the subject.
The trouble is that so few folks have
had an opportunity to acquire reliable
knowledge as to sickness and accident
prevention and treatment in case of
sickness.
This opportunity is now presented to
the women of Rochester by means of a
course of twelve lectures to be given at
each of six Rochester schools as follows:
School 23, Barrington St., Monday and
Thursday forenoons, 10 :45. Opened Sep-
tember 26th.
School 12, Wadsworth Square, Tuesday
and Friday afternoons, 4 p. m. Opened
September 27th.
School 18, North & Draper Sts., Mon-
day and Thursday evenings, 8 p. m.
Opened September 26th.
School 24, 900 Meigs St., Tuesday and
Thursday afternoons, 4 p. m. Opens
October 26th.
School 16, Post Ave., Tuesday and
Thursday afternoons, 4 ]). m. Opens
October 27th.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Joseph
Ave. near Norton St., Tuesday and Fri-
day evenings, 8 p.m. Opens October 28th.
Your wife, mother, sister or daughter is
most earnestly invited to join any one of
these classes and so obtain up-to-date,
reliable information on how to protect
and guard the health of your home. You
willnote that these classes have already
started in the three first-named schools,
and we regret that we could not have
afforded earlier notice.
Over-eating and too little exercise
during the noon hour tend to drowsiness;
the remedy here is obvious.
Many of the accidents at the closing
hour are caused by pushing and crowd-
ing, and running down the stairs; here
also the remedy is in your own hands.
SUBJECT
The course is given under the auspices
Board of Education, the Health
of the
Bureau and the Chaml>er of Commerce,
and the course has been jilanned and the
lectures will be given by a staff com-
posed of some of the best-known physi-
cians in the city.
Among the subjects included in this
course are the causes, recognition and
prevention of disease. Home care of the
sick, including demonstrated lessons in
the taking of pulse and temperature;
following the doctor's instructions in
giving medicine; bed making; giving of
baths and rubs; use of sick-room ap-
pliances; the making and application of
various kinds of bandages; preparing of
articles of diet for the sick; the care of the
baby, including demonstrations in wash-
ing, dressing and preparing food the care
;
of children, with special reference to
children's diseases; physiology for wom-
en; motherhood. The lectures will also
include the handling of emergencies,
not only accidents, but those arising
during the course of an illness; there will
be demonstrations of how to put out a fire
in clothing; the making and applying of
temporary splints to fractures; stopping
hemorrhages, and how to revive a
drowning or suft'ocating person.
These lessons are free of charge, but
there is a registration fee of one dollar,
which, however, will be refunded to those
who have attended eighty per cent, of the
lectures, the fee being charged to assure
regularity of attendance.
This is a splendid opportunity to secure
this much needed practical information,
and we urge you to have some member of
your family attend.

Frequently you will find two families
living in houses practically identical as to
size and location and with the same style
of heating apparatus. One family will
get through the winter with, say, ten tons
of coal, with all rooms at a comfortable
temperature. The other family will tell
you that they used fourteen or fifteen
tons of coal, and that there was one
room that just could not be heated.
Possibly the home of the second family
is not so well constructed or from its
location more exposed to the wind, but
in many cases the families could trade
houses and the one who couldn't heat his
house would find the same trouble with
the other one. The thing to do before
winter sets in is to see that your heating
apparatus is in good order; the fire box,
grates and flues clean, and w^orn or
broken parts repaired or renewed.
Make any broken windows in

Your coal dealer may not pose as a
heating expert, but in most cases he can,
and will, afl^ord you some valuable advice
as to the proper selection of coal and on
how to run your furnace with satisfactory
economy.
If you have a room that you cannot
seem to heat, ask your coal dealer and
you will find that he can, more often than
not, afford the remedy.
If you use a gas range, keep the burners
clean, and see that they do not become
clogged; clean burners will save on your
gas bills, and also afford a better and
steadier heat.
Unprotected water pipes close to an

MOSAICS
Of course you know wliat mosaic work is.
The symmetrical cubes of stone or tile can be
and halls in many
seen adorning the floors or lobbies
of the world's finest buildings.
The EgA'ptians were past masters of this art, and
excavations of ruined cities have revealed that the
people of Pharaoh's time excelled in mosaic work.
All of which goes to prove that the ancients had
the right idea of "fitting in."
One cube or slab of tile can no more make a
mosaic design than one mind can formulate the
policies of industry.
It reciuires dozens of squares, oblongs, circles and
\arious shapes to perfect an elaborate mosaic
l)attern. It requires dozens of executive, statistical,
mechanical, aufl clerical minds to perfect an efficient
factory organization.
Each cube of tile or stone, of itself, is practically

tennis team. —
Anyway we know who are the star
players, and will remember it next season. Delia

useless, but in co-operation with others, it becomes
a very important part of the design and is indis-
pensable to the whole.
Each executive and employee, however special-
ized he or she may be, does not, separately, constitute
an efficient organization; but, collectively, each unit
becomes vital to the other, and together they form
a prosperous combination.
Just as each tile or stone unit must contribute
.shape and color to the mosaic structure, so must
each executive and employee contribute ideas and
suggestions to the company's policies.
Each man or woman jniisf "fit in" to the general
scheme, not only by contributing labor, but by
using brains.

WHO GETS THE TROPHY
The handsome trophy, donated by the Recreation
Club for competitive gardening clubs exhibiting at
the Rochester Exposition, is still awaiting a claim-
ant! When the trophy was "put up," there were six
likely competitors for honors, but one after another
of the clubs dropped out, until only ojir association
was left in the field. As a result, the usual feature of
an industrial garden exhibit at Exposition was
dropped, and, according to "Hoyle" we are entitled
to keep the prize. But there, we'll give the other
factories a chance to win it next year —
and the
more competitors the merrier.

LP THE KIVER AGAIN !

On]^the last day of August, tliirty-five'^Hawk-Eye
men held what they claimed was to be their final
sausage roast of the season on the upper River.
Frankly, we don't believe it was the last. These
roasts have become a sort of amiable weakness with
that particular crowd, and we expect to hear of them
"spreading 'em with mustard" imtil snow flies.
It was not a canoe party this time. The hea\y-
weights refused to go unless they could drive tlieir
Peerlessesand Reos to the .scene of the "dog-fight."
However, everyone found plenty of exercise, im-
mediately upon arriving, in the customary ball
game. That is, everyone except "Red" Sondheim,
"Larry" Tarnow and Frank Quetchenback, who
were up to their ears in the culinary preliminaries,
that must needs precede the main bout.
"Ed" McLean imij)ired the game and, owing to
his size, escaped uninjured. His hair-raising decis-
ions and " Benny " Levine's efforts as chief comedian
made anything but a high old time unthinkable.
Outside of these two luminaries, the out-fielders on
both teams- were most prominent, not because they
caught so many flies, (they really didn't stop a
thing) but because of their generous numbers. Each
side had a good half-dozen of them. \i\ general,
the game alone was more than worth the insignifi-
cant cost of the party. Though most of the ac-
countants were present, they couldn't make up their
minds as to the score, and the question has yet to
be settled.
The commissary department almost had to drag
the reluctant players to the dining green, where
tables had (not) been set. Once there, however,
they" stayed put" with a vengeance, and great were
the deeds they did in the course of the "fight."
Fred Altman, 'tis true, lost caste with the champion
eaters when he chose to act as waitress and consum-
ed only two man-sized portions. But "Bill"
Roach made amends by purchasing the absent
"Jimmy" "Weldon's share at a ridiculously low
figure, and then eating about ten portions. As for
the quality of the lunch, high fame has attached
itself tothe eats of "Larry" and "Red."
There followed those evening pursuits that
usually grace such parties. There is a snap-shot
extant that shows a group gathered around either a
campfire or an illuminated blanket, ostensibly tell-
ing ghost stories. More than one saw ghosts before
the evening was over. "Joe" Engel, on his own
evidence, was voted the best deer-hunter in the
crowd.
Nobody who participated that night would object
if those parties did last until Thanksgi\Tng. And
if —
they can be moved indoors after that, let's do it.

rejuvenation of the Ekco Club, which passed through
such a successful season at the Y. W. C. A. last year.
The organization started with a membership of
about ten and, contrary to the experience of many
chibs, ended the season with twice that number. It
is planned to do even bigger things this year and
there is reason to believe that the new features,
offered by the "Y. W." through the club will make
the latter a record-breaking success.
As last year, supper will he served on clul) nights,
but on a more pretentious scale. The meal will be
followed by joint fireside meetings of all the girls'
clubs, a feature that has always been immensely
popular and successful. After this general get-
together, there will be two forty-minute periods,
which will be utilized for either eflucational or
recreational purposes. C'ourses are offered in Cur-
rent Events, Economics, Psychology, United States
History, First-Aid, Millinery, etc., as well as the
usual gym work and swimming. The girls also
have the option of spending these periods in the
reading room, in the music room or at any other
pursuit that may strike their fancy. They can
leave early or stay late, according to necessity or
inclination. There will be something to suit, and
to attract every girl along these lines, not to mention
the good-fellowship which after all has been the
foundation and secret of success of the Ekco Club.
Marguerite Fehrenbach left our Production
Department on September 9th, to begin a training
course at St. Clary's Hospital. We hope, and
believe, that she will be happy and successful in her
new work.

lively Pajama Party. Attired in bright-hued pa-
jamas, they gathered for supper at seven o'clock in
the women's dining room. The girls say that they
could easily have imagined themselves dining at
Odenljach's when tliey tasted the delicious salads,
pastry and excellent coffee made by Miss Drum-
mond. It is assumed that they would have been
somewhat eml)arrassed if they had found them-
selves suddenly transported to that hostelry attired
as they were, but it isn't necessary to pursue the
comparison cjuite to that point.
After the repast, a novel program of games and
dancing was carried out. There is no doubt but that
the pajama girls enjoyed themselves in fact, John —
DeWitte .says that they apparently wandered from
the original scene of their merry-making, for he
found fairy footjirints even on the tables within the
sacred confines of the men's dining room.
With the approach of cool weather, the Pitch
Buttoners are jilanning to have more of their get-
togethers.
NO, NOT CRICKET!
We hasten to deny the rumor that Alice Gears and
"Babe" Meerdink have taken up the game of
cricket. Some people seem to have jiunped at
conclusions, just because the girls played in a
baseball game which their team won bv a score of
38-15.
KOSS-GREINKE
Florence Greinke left on September 10th. Most
of us did not knowafterward that she was to
initil
be married. Mr. Arthur Koss is the lucky man,
and the date of the wedding was September Slst.
The best wishes of the Filter Department, where
Florence worked, and of Hawk-Eye in general, go
with Mr. and Mrs. Koss.
ON THE INDOOR DIAMOND
August marked the appearance of a new team on
the outdoor-indof)r fliamond. The Tool Room nine
made its debut on the last of the month, and while
it tasted defeat at the hands of the Foremen, the
line-up looked good. Tiie d-i .score doesn't show
the calibre of "Charlie" Becker's pitching, because
his support wasn't altogether watertight. Fred
Von Deben, covering second base for the winners,
kept the noon-hour fans in suspense by h s involun-
tary antics. He had a bad day with his feet, and his
playing looked like a demonstration of "One
Hundred Ways to Stumble Without Falling."
A week earlier, the married naen had stacked up
against the bachelors. Just as at the picnic earlier
in the month, the single men demonstrated their
superiority by winning in a canter.
Our friends, the Oleanders, made several in-
vasions of our grounds, administering a beating on
each occasion. Hawk-Eye has yet to find a combi-
nation that can cope with the Oleander battery and
at the same time throttle their swat-smiths. How-
ever, these games, as well as all the others, have
supplied more fun than the justly famous barrel of
monkeys, and it will be with keen regret that
Hawk-Eye will see the end of this noon-hour sport.

GIRLS PLANNING FOR BASKETBALL
Last season was a "humdinger" for the Kodak
Park girls' basketball team and everyone admits
that we will have to go some to better it this winter.
In all, eighteen games were played during the season,
sixteen being won. The only team to defeat the
Park lassies was the famous Clark-Munies, of
Cleveland, world's championship girls' team.
Practically all of last season's players are again
availal)le and anxious to get into action. The ex-
perience gained by them last year should put them
in the lead from the very start, and their slogan
will be "not a defeat this winter."
Efforts are again being made to secure the services
of "Charlie" Thompson as coach. His superior
knowledge of the game, together with his ability to
guide succes-sfully the playing of the team members,
makes him highly desirable. It is hoped to get five
or six weeks steady practice before the opening
game, which will be played the latter part of next
month against one of the best teams in this
locality.
Everyone enjoys the girls' games. Start early
this season.Get the habit with tlie first game and
be there for everv one.

By the time this Ma'jazine is issued, the Kodak

its very extraordinary affairs, this a Clam Bake,
at Rifle Range on Saturday, September 24th.
For the past four years this event has been elimi-
nated from the program of activities, but, because
of the persistent demand on the part of a large
representation of tlie membership body, it was
decided to hold one this year.
Charles Schlansker, James A. Hart, William
Doane, Robert A. Weber and Charles Kendall were
in charge of the different arrangements.
Thefirst dinner and meeting of the winter season
will l)e held in the middle of this month. Every-
one is anxious for these to be resumed, and between
four and five hundred people are expected to be in
attendance at the first one. President Schaefl'er
and a Committee are busy arranging a schedule of
winter activities and promise to exceed, if possible,
in everv wav the affairs of last year.

'•WELL, HERE WE ARE-
RESEARCH AT GRAND VIEW
The Research Picnic, held at Grand \ iew Beach
oa Augjst :27th went with a bang.
Floyd Bight er who was chairman of the SporLs
Committee, and a live wire at all times, started the
ball rolling with a game of playgroimd ball between
the SjTithetic Chemistry and the Research Labora-
tory. The boys took it seriously: so. the only in-
teresting part was .\1"' Knight as umpire. ".M"
got rid of some old grudges by shutting his
eyes when good ones came over and calling 'em balls.
The game that evoked the real enthusiasm was
between two teams captained by H. LeB. Gray and
Harry Tozier. Dr. Mees proved his speed by
making two hits and although Billings played
"Babe Ruth" and scored a home run. he spoiled it
all by getting "bawled up" on base throwing. H.
LeB. Gray looked around to protest a decision
from the \"aliant umpire, and discovered only an
animated cigar. This prevented him from seeing
the demonstration staged by Dr. Clark who proved
that there is more than one way to catch a ball.
The ball-throwing contest was won by \Ii5s
Bergh. while Mrs. MerwT.-n Orser threw into high
and won the 50 yard dash for ladies. Domestic
training proved its efficiency when Mr. and Mrs.
Reeves won the Pipe and Needle Contest. Emery
Huse showed his proficiency in igniting the briar
by winning the Pipe Race.

Newton Green and J. H. Haste chose up for a
tug-of-war and Mr. Haste lost the pull through a
technical error. It seems that Dr. Trivelli was
giving his full support to !Mr. Haste's side of the
rope, but this support proved to be only moral.
In the girls' baU game, Irene M. Foley became
wedded to her bat. Mabel Osier, taught Mr.
Spaulding a new rule when she scored from
third while placing third. Figure it out.
The "Suns" of Mr. Lovejoy and Dr. Mees
respectively, tied in the hurdle race, although each
has a manly grudge against Floyd Righter for
removing the benches.
The dinner served at the Grand \'iew Hotel was
voted the best ever. "Bob " Bret hens youthful
Tommy pleased the diners by "spilling the beans"
and although Louise Hutchison had to sing through
two waiters she proved herself a true vocalist and
was well appreciated. Nothing need be said of the
Series Four Quartet: it is reported that they said
enough and that it actually was harmonious.

CURTAIN FOR BASEB.ALL
As the season ends, once again the Kodak Park
baseliall team disbands and the equipment is laid
away among the moth balls until another spring
rolls around. Hawk-Eye is again the pennant-
winner, and, with the Ijest all-aroimd team in the
League, the final result was ob\-ious.
Kodak Park's well-known "Jinx" was on the job
almost every game, and, for one reason or another,
the defeats piled up until our prospects were hope-
less. Only two games were won out of the eleven
played, one from Camera Works and the other from
SOCCER
Owing to the resignation of the Rochester and
District League secretary, it has been necessary to
postpone the opening of the fall series, to enable
the schedule committee to re^ise the arrangement
of matches. Indications point to the first game
being played about Octol^er 1st. Kodak Park is
but one point behind the Celtics, and oiu- chances of
gaining first place are very good, in spite of the fact
that Morrison. Scott, Clegg and Griffiths, four of
our most able players, are no longer with the team.
Plaj^ing in the Northwestern Cup Competition
matches was resumed last month, the Celtics play-
ing the Oneida Community team at Sherrill. Xew
York, and the Moose meeting the Jamestown
Football Club at Jamestown. Kodak Park was
eliminated in the last game of the local series in the
spring, by the Celtics; so, we must wait another
year for a chance at the big trophy.

with the outcome. Another year we have hopes
of different results. With Kodak Park ha\-ing the

we extend a vote of appreciation.

and difficult to handle, and cameras and
appliances cumbersome and crude, so
that only the most enthusiastic and per-
severing workers were rewarded with
anything like success. To the far-sighted-
ness and perseverance of a few men, and
one man in particular, we owe much
the wonderful improvement in sensitive
goods and apparatus which has brought
photography to the front rank of import-
ance in industry and science.
Photographs Supplant Sample Case
One attempts to make use
of the first
of photography commercially, was in con-
nection with the printing trade, and the
photo-engravings were first successfully
used about 1893. Development of the
printing art has kept pace with that of
photography, and the result is shown in
present-day illustrations of our books and
magazines. Advertisers are able to pro-
duce illustrations so attractive that
attention is called to their goods with
greater effect than any printed text could
ever accomplish. Salesmen carry photo-
graphs of their goods which are so
perfect in detail of construction, text-
ure, and even color, that the showing of
the articles themselves is unnecessary.
All important construction work is now
photographed from start to finish, so that
a complete record may be kept of the
progress of the work from day to day.
Such a record was made by the Govern-
ment of the construction of the Panama
Canal, and the photographs are on file in
Washington^a complete and graphic
story of this wonderful feat of engineering.
Manufacturers are using photographs
extensively in their factories for instruc-
tion of employees, manufactured parts
to include almost everything except
portraits and landscapes.
Accuracy Paramount in Commercial Work
Strictly commercial work, such as pho-
tography of manufactured articles and the
illustrating of catalogues, deals with the
of
technical side of photography rather than
the artistic. The principal aim in such
work is to obtain an accurate reproduction
of the original in every detail. Any dis-
tortion in the photograph is fatal; per-
spective must be true and accurate, and
the pictures should show every detail in
both high-lights and shadows. For studio
work, to avoid apparent distortion, a lens
of long focus, 18 inches or 20 inches, must
be used. A lens of short focus should
never be used unless limited space pro-
hibits the use of a long focus lens. A
photographer who specializes in the pho-
tographing of confectionery, recently told
the writer that the greater part of his work
isdone with a lens of 36 inch focus. Anas-
tigmat lenses are, of course, best, but
excellent work may be done with the
rectilinear. Extreme accuracy is essential,
especially in photographing objects which
show distinct lines, such as buildings,
furniture, and machinery. In most work,
speed in exposure is not of vital import-
ance, and small stops may be used in the
lens to ensure sharpness and depth of
focus.
Advertisers in the magazines and papers
are coming to realize more and more the
advantages of good illustrations, and this
field allows the photographer to exercise
his artistic and decorative skill. It is a
well-known fact that a good illustration
in an advertisement is often of more im-
portance in attracting favorable attention

matter. For the man making a start at
commercial photography, the advertising
not only extremely interesting
field offers
work, but work for which there is an ever
increasing demand and good pay.
Photographers Noic Specialize
The continuous variety of subjects and
problems brought to the commercial pho-
tograj)her makes his work not only in-
teresting but fascinating. He must work
in all conditions of light and surroundings,
and his success depends largely upon
individual ideas and ingenuity.
commercial photographers now specialize
in one line, such as glassware, crockery,
jewelry, flowers, furniture, clothing,
shoes. Such work is done almost entirely
in the studio, where lighting and accesso-
ries may be to some extent permanently
arranged. Others are ready to take up
any sort of job which presents itself, and
operators of this class must be extremely
resourceful and ingenious in order to
overcome the difficulties presented by
poor lighting facilities and objectionable
surroundings. Under such conditions, a
plate of great exposure latitude is, of
course, desirable. Double-coated plates,
such as the Standard Orthonon, are best,
and such plates are most free from hala-
tion. One of the best single coated plates
for all-around commercial work is the
Seed 23, though such a plate requires
more careful exposure and manipulation
in the dark room than the double-coated
plate. For most commercial work, ex-
tremely rapid plates are neither necessary
nor desirable, as the slower plates are
cleaner working and of greater latitude.
Eastman film is now made in emulsions
of several different qualities and speeds,
and is best
for all kinds of work.

quires no backing, is light and unbreak-

coated plates.

work of this nature may also be done on
Eastman Portrait film, and this has the
advantage of greater speed.
For making copies of black and white
studies, the Seed 2S plate is excellent,
and by pro])er manipulation, a wide range
of negative quality as regards contrast
may be obtained. Eastman Commercial
film is best for this work, or, if less con-
trast is desired, Eastman Portrait film is
his excellent.
Many For the copying of line drawings and
similar work, where great contrast is
essential, Seed Process plates and East-
or man Process film are best; they are low
in speed, very clean working, and give
extreme contrast.
Problem to Render Tones Correctly
Commercial photographers are often
confronted with the problem of rendering
correctly in a photograph, the tones of
colored objects, such as paintings, signs,
flowers, fruit, etc. They find that with
the ordinary plates it is impossible to
make a satisfactory photograph of such a
subject, for instance, as a sign or de-
livery car having black letters on a red
ground. For this purpose, the Wratten
Panchromatic plate, which is sensitive to
all colors, overcomes the difficulty and
renders the colors in a photograph with
the same tone value as they appear to the
eye.
]Many pieces of furniture are difficult to
photogra})h correctly on the ordinary
plate. For such work the orthochromatic
plate is used with a light yellow filter.
This brings out the texture and grain of
the wood in a way that can not be pro-
duced on an ordinary plate. Eastman

THE PUBLIC EXPECTS YOU TO KNOW
Howwould you stack up if your next door
neighbor should get you in the corner and say;
"I want to get a few pointers about taking pictures.
I understand you work for the Kodak company;
so I guess this is the place to go for a little first
hand information."
That is the general opinion of your friends and
acquaintances, isn't it.' They natiu-ally think
that a man or woman employed at the Camera
Works ought to know the ins and outs of the product
just the same as they expect a baker to know how
to make good bread or a farmer to produce good
crops. It's a perfectly natm-al conclusion for your
next-door neighbor to make, but how much do—
we Camera makers really know? The finest
to get photographic knowledge and experience
is to go out and dig for it; equip yourself with a
camera, a tripod, and a few rolls of film and figure
out the best way of getting results. You will find
that the average man is anxious to learn a useful
hobby. You can do your part in salesmanship
by learning the proper usage of the goods you
produce. There are hundreds of books wTitten on
photography, but sometimes a little first hand
information is of more value than all the written
material ever published.
Perhaps you are of the opinion that Mr. Next-
Door Neighbor is not interested in photography
anyway. If so, Fred Brehm about his

experiences this past summer. Mr. Brehm had an
opportunity to visit men's and boys' camps during
the past summer, and the minute the news got
aroimd camp that a photographer was coming
well, you have only to look at the illustrations on
page 13 to realize that interest was at high pitch.
A MESSAGE FROM THE SAFETY INSPECTOR
Now that the boys and girls are coming back to
work again, I hope that it will be possible to main-
tain the splendid record we possess in the matter
of so few accidents in the Camera Works.
Of course, every one will be anxious to work at
top speed, but do not forget that safety always
pays in the long run. The giving of careful atten-
tion to so-called minor injuries is, I believe, the
sav'ing of many a serious case, especially in regard
to scratches and small cuts. A common practice
is to perform a "home" operation with a needle,
or penknife, without sterilization of the "surgical
instrument". Everything is fine for a few
days, when the injured member starts to throb
E E A

Fred hardly had time to eat and certainly had no
time to relax. One of the camps he visited is
located on the hilly shores of Lake Keuka and
—
attended by Boy Scouts over a hundred of them
ranging in age from twelve to eighteen years.
Every one of them is anxious to become a real man
and to learn, not only how to work but to play
like a man, and acquire hobbies which will be useful
as well as entertaining.
One of the necessities of camp life as im- —
portant as a pocket knife or a flashlight is a —
camera. As the boys say: "We can tell about the
good times, but pictures prove it." Every boy
who owned a Brownie was enthusiastic and a
way subject of envy from those who did not have a
camera of any kind. The boys have a great thirst
for knowledge regarding photography, but Mr.
Brehm learned that there is general lack of knowl-
edge regarding exposure. The amateur photog-
raphers do not fully understand the relation of one
diaphragm to another. Nor do they associate
shutter speed with diaphragm openings.
The interest of the boys cannot be doubted after
a glance at the accompanying illustrations and
these boys are typical of the men who a decade
hence will become Mr. Next-Door Neighbor.
Realizing that many of our own numljer are far
from photographic experts, the Industrial Relations
Department proposes to organize another class in
amateur photography, similar to the one which
had such a successful career last spring. However,
if you are interested, do not wait until the class
has opened to start; just dig right in on your own

and becomes inflamed. Result — in most cases^
that dreaded condition called blood poisoning.
The most efficient way to prevent all accidents
is to rouse the general public to realize responsi-
bility, individually and collectively. There is no
question that the seeds of Safety First have gone
forth and, in the majority of instances, found root
in fertileground, but some have fallen in stony
places, it is there that we who understand can
and
do so much good. Preach the message of safety,
not only for your own comfort but for the lives of
others.

That the Camera Works is one of the finest
equipped factories in New York State.^ Two fire
insurance inspectors recently, on making a thorough
search through the State Street buildings, com-
mented on that fact, and had no recommendations
to suggest for improvement regarding fire preven-
tion apparatus.
It's a great thing to know that we are connected
with a factory that is so well equipped for safety.
By strictly observing the rules, and keeping the
place free from litter, we are assured of a reasonably
safe place to work. It is the duty of us "old timers"
to mould the "young" employees into our way of
thinking. We maintain a certain standard of
working conditions, which the management has
established. Let's be jealous of our reputation,
and see that "the other fellow" helps us keep it.

BREEDERS SET DATES FOR SHOW
EGG-LAYING CONTEST TO BE SPECIAL FEATURE
December 6th, 7tli, 8th, and 9tli are the dates
set forthe Third Annual Exhibition and Show
of the Kodak Park Fur and Feather CUib. Details
were gone over at the recent special meeting,
which was very well attended, giving convincing
evidence that the members are interested in the
organization and its activities, particularly this
one big event of the year.
A Committee was appointed to draft a set of
rules and regulations to govern the exhibit. Presi-
dent Frank Hauser, as Chairman, will be assisted
by Fred Habel, Charles Smith, Frank Armstrong,
Charles Light, "Joe" Jansen and Howard Carey.
This Committee will have complete supervision of
entries, premium lists, prizes, and general
arrangements.
As an incentive to the members to compete, it is
announced that in addition to the usual line of
ribbons awarded the winners, there will also be
several cups and some cash prizes. Entries will
close Tuesday, November 29th. The stock will
then be placed in the Assembly Hall on Monday,
December 5th, and everything will be in readiness

has again given the Kodak Park Club the use
of their pens and coops, a service which is greatly
appreciated
A special feature of this year's exhibit will be
the Egg-Laying Contest. Entries will consist
of five hens to each coop, the coops being specially
constructed and locked. Results will be recorded
each night up until eight o'clock on Friday, at
which time the winners will be announced. In
the event of a tie in number of eggs the winner will
be decided by weight. It is expected that about
twelve persons will enter birds in this event, rep-
resenting several breeds of celebrated layers.
As usual the Show will be open to the public
and no charge will be made either day or evening.
You are invited to attend, together with your
family and friends. The beautiful cup won by the
Kodak Park Club in the Industrial Division of
the Flower City Show last year, will be on exhibition.
LOUISE MURPHY TENNIS CHAMPION
Louise Murphy of Building 23 is the winner of
the Girls' Handicap Tennis Tournament for 1921.
In all, twenty-four girls were entered for the tourna-
ment this season, although a large number of
matches went by default. Vacations and the
extreme hot weather of the summer affected the
progress considerably.
Satisfaction with the handicap type of tourna-
ment has been expressed quite generally, and, in
view of its superiority over the elimination tourna-
ment, the event will undoubtedly be carried out
along these lines again next season.

SOCCER NOTES GOLF TOURNAMENT FINISHED

Last spring, after playing into the fourth round
in the second half of the U. S. Cup Competition
Series, Kodak Park was forced to default to the
Goodrich team of Akron, Ohio. This, however,
was the best showing ever made by a local eleven
and encouraged the players to enter the series of
1921-22. However, the Park players were not so
fortunate in the present series, but were eliminated
in the first round by the Camera Works team on
Sunday, October 9th, although an extra period of
thirty minutes was necessary to decide the
argument.
The efforts of the Kodak Park team will now be
devoted to winning the R. & D. Trophy. In this
series the Park stanrls in second place, one point
behind the Celtics. The first match of the fall
series was played late in October.
Some little difficulty is being experienced in
producing a team this season to compare with that
of previous years in view of the loss of several very
good players. Nevertheless, the Park is making a
strong effort to retain the position they have won
and held in the Soccer world.
The final match in the Second Annual Golf
Tournament of the Kodak Park Athletic Associa-
tion was played on Sunday, October 2nd, William
P. Anderson of the Black Paper Department being
pitted against his brother, Harold T. Anderson of
Building 15. William won out by a safe margin.
Taking it in all, progress was very smooth
all
during the play-off, there being only one holdup,
the (joodridge-H. Anderson match of the first
round. On two occasions these players met and
finished a tie. Goodridge later defaulted to And-
erson, who then played Nelson Bruce, winning
by acknowledgment. Sixteen entries were re-
ceived this year, and a large number of new players
who did not feel qualified to compete in this tourna-
ment will be available another season. A field of
not less than fifty players is anticipated for next
year's event.

is the proud father of a bouncing baby boy. Milton

26 THE KODAK MAGAZINE
FIRST FOREMEN'S DINNER
The firstdinner meeting of the Kodak Park
Foremen's Club for the l92l-'-2'i season was held
on Thursday, October 13th. After the two very
enjoyable outings held this summer, the Cobourg
trip and the clam bake, the men were more than
anxious for a chance to get together and talk them
over.
DR.C.E.K. MEES
Speaker, Foremen's Club Meeting
About three hundred and fifty were present,
including guests from other Eastman Divisions.
During the dinner which was served at 6:00 o'clock
in the dining hall. Damon's Orchestra entertained,
featuring "Alf" INIonk, trombone soloist. Motion
pictures of the smnmer outings were shown after
the dinner.
The speaker of the evening was Dr. C. E. K.
Mees, the title of his address being "The Road to
Wealth." The highly pleasing manner in which
Dr. Mees portrayed the value of research work
with its relation to the world's advancement, won and
held the undivided attention of his audience
throughout.
The next meeting will be held around the middle
of Novemljer and an equally good time is assured.
Charles Thompson of the Stores Department
was married to Deltha Ainsworth of the Velox
Department on October 11th. "Charlie" is coach
of the girls' basketball team.
GIRL BASKET TOSSERS START PRACTICE
An even dozen girls reported for the girls' bas-
ketball practice held last month, every one anxious
and ready for the opening of the season. Last
year's team is practically intact and with the wealth
of new material available, the Park "Quint" should
be by far the strongest playing team yet produced.
Luck seems to be with the girls from the very
start. To begin with, Charles Thompson has
agreed to take charge as coach, and will be assisted
by Jack Brightman. There is no ciuestion that the
success of theteam last season was due to the knowl-
edge and ability to obtain results of the coaches
and willingness of the players. This spirit still
exists and promises the best of results for 19'-21-'-22.
The first game will be played abovit the first of
December, although the choice of opponent has
not yet been decided. In view of the ease with
which the Kodak Park girls defeated all the local
teams last season, it is expected that considerable
trouble will be experienced in securing dates with
local talent, which will necessitate the bringing
here of out-of-town organizations. The reputation
of the Kodak girls has traveled far, so that they
are recognized by all leadmg girl team managers.
The following girls at present comprise the
squad; Cecelia Korn, Louise Singleton, Ethel
Stuck, Julia Thayer, Matilda Hanley, Elizabeth
Fratter, Anna Chase, Lillian Beatty, Jennie De-
Graft' and Marion De Burgemister. The latter two
girls formerl\' played with the Hawk-Eye team.
HOGESTYN-SHERMAN
On Wednesday evening, October I'^th, the men
of the Pay Roll Department, Building 34, gave a
party for Ed\\ard Hogestyn, a prospective bride-
groom. An excellent dinner was consumed at
Gasner's Restaurant, which was followed by some
fine stories and songs. Yes, Eddie was decorated
with the customary outfit from bib to rattle. Fred
Dierdorf rendered several very pleasing violin
selections.
From Gasner's the party shifted to the Temple
Theatre for the remainder of the evening.
Everyone voted it a fine party and no one enjoyed
it more than the prospective bridegroom himself.
"Ed" was married on Monday, October 17th,
to Flora Sherman, formerly of the Pay Roll Depart-
ment. Our best wishes are extended to both.

BASKETBALL
Althougli Kodak Park for the past seven or eight
years has had one of the fastest and best known
basketball teams in this part of the country, which
has met and very often defeated the best of semi-
pro teams, the situation has been far from satis-
factory in some respects.
To be sure, weare handicapped by one or two
things. First of the distance of the Kodak
all.
Park court from the center of the city, and the long
walk from the car line, particularly in stormy
weather, has helped to keep the attendance at a
low figure. In order to offset these things, it was
necessary to be assured of local support before
risking the loss of six or seven hundred dollars.
A few weeks ago a letter was sent to each member
of the Association asking for a pledge of his support.
The object of this was two-fold. First, to determine
the actual number of persons who were interested
in a team to the extent that they would pledge
themselves to support it, and. secondly, to under-
write the proposition, it being determined to have
the best team in Rochester or none. Only about
sixty persons returned favorable answers, and, in
acting upon the matter at the next meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Association, it was voted
to discontinue the semi-pro team for this year.
The team reappear when
will popular demand
makes it advisable, thL-; demand to be accompanied
of course by a reasonable assurance
of local support
sufficient to guarantee the success of the venture.
This, however, does not mean there will be no
basketball at Kodak Park this winter. Plans for
a Kodak League along the lines of the Baseball
League have been laid, and Kodak Park, with such
men as Brightman, Heaney, Bonhurst and many
others, should be able to do what in baseball %\e
found impossible, in the way of winning games.
Then, too. there will be the Department League,
composed of eight fast teams, to say nothing of
the girls" championship team, which is practically
intact and readv for the whistle.

YARD LEAGUE STARTS THIRD SEASON
The \ard Bowling League looks like a permanent
affair. A meeting was held recently and the League
re-organized for the year 1921-22. Matches are
rolled every Tuesday evening at the Genesee Bowl-
ing Hall. On the opening night both the Stores
and Garage made a clean sweep and won three
games each from the 'Vard and Receiving, while
the Steel Shed was taking the odd game from the
Office. This is only a starter, however, and it
would be unwise to make any prediction as to a
possible winner .so early in the season.
The officers for this year are; President, Joseph S.
Matteson; secretary, Clifford L. Zecker; treasurer,
Almon Jeffers.

 HAWK-EYE
P. R.
HAWK-EYE CLAMBAKE AT RIFLE RANGE
On a beautiful day in October, Saturday the
fifteenth to be exact, the Hawk-P>ye men staged
their hist outdoor party of the year. It was a
regular old-time clambake. You've i)robabIy heard
tell about it, even if you were not there, but have
you heard about the weird combination catch by
"Duke" Quetchenback and George Brennan
the anteprandial ball game? "Duke," one of
Benny Levine's left fielders, let a short fly bound
out of his hands, only to find that George, another
left fielder, had dashed up in time to smother it
for an out. "Duke" asked the scorers to give him
an assist on the play, Ijut he got an error instead.
Brennan was rewarded with a burst of applause,
but no more so than "Bill" Vaeth when he made a
valiant efl^ort to snare a fly with his hat. He
didn't catch it, but the grandstand was bound to
acknowledge his resourcefulness. In this first
game, played at Seneca Park, Levine's team whipped
"Jack" Holleys combination by what "Jack"
claims was a narrow margin.
The second act, the l)ake proper, opened imder
the spreading chestnut trees at Rifle Range. The
ball players had worked up a tremendous hunger,
with the result that the slaughter was terrible.
This was particularly true in I'mpire Downey's
sector, where accumulated a rampart of clam shells
THE WORLD'S SERIES
The great drama has come to a close, as Damon
Runyon would say. By which we mean that the
World's Series at the Hawk-Eye Polo Grounds finally
came to a conclusion on October l~th. And
whatever may have
been the outcome of that minor
affair in New
York, we claim that the Yankees
are champions. Piloted by "Iluggins" Weldon
they took three straight games from "Muggsy"
Bohan's Giants before the latter knew what was
hapuening. Then the proverl)ial worm executed
a lialf turn and two tie games resulted. The
Giants were fighting hard and gave Weldon's
men a hard tussle in tlic sixth encounter, losing
by one nm. Weldon had to use a patched line-up
at this stage of the series, and drop[)cd the next
two games of the .series by decisive scores. On
Monday, the sixteenth, however, he had all of his

that was appalling. Most of the feasters outdid
themselves in the early stages of the meal, but
faltered when the lobster was served. This was
the cue for which "Harve" Putnam had waited,
and he accounted for a number of unclaimed "Reds."
A second ball game, played on a diamond sur-
in roimded by hills and marshes, resulted in a victory
for the team led hy "Charlie" Becker, whose port-
side slants were too strong for \'on Deben's crew.
The cumulative effect of clams, chicken and lobster
was noticeable in the playing of "Bill" Roach,
who dropped every tlirow at first. It cropped
out also in the arguments put up by Frank Fink,
who disputed every decision that "Big Ed" Mc-
Lean made. It was worth a great deal, though,
to .see Claude Early run dowii out of the hills to
miss a short fly from Becker's bat, and to see Max
Weyh playing left field far behind the foul line.
With the clo.se of the game, the party split into
several groups. Fred Von Deben piloted the
pinochle addicts to a secluded corner for a few
hands, and "Rav" Farmen led off in a session of
"double-Dutch." The rest of the gang well, —

The decision of October l^tli, to form a Kodak

material showed the following men to be available:
Baraford, Felerski, Hoffmeier Ingleby, Johnson,

PENNANTS
Have you noticed that we are sporting four
baseball pennants.^ Foolish question! Every
Hawk-p]yete shows unmistakal)le signs of swelling
up while passing under the "muslins" that testify
to Hawk -Eye's supremacy in both the Kodak and
City Industrial Leagues in 19'-20 and 1921. Win-
ning them is becoming a habit and we are going to
take pains to cultivate it a little more next vear.
Mary Buckley, Helen Sullivan and Frank Kohler
have returned to the Cleaning and Inspecting
Department. We are glad to see them again.
Irma Weaver, formerly of the Centering Depart-
ment, is in the Adirondacks for her health. Her
many friends at Hawk-Eye wish her a quick and
complete recovery.
Charles E. Wolfe, father of Vana Wolfe, of the
Cleaning and Inspecting Department, died on
October 12th. We offer our sincere sympathy
to the bereaved family.
JOHN J.
John J. Dineen died on Sunday mornmg, Septem-
ber 25th, in Boston, Mass., following an operation.
John was one of the oldest and best known of
Hawk-Eye employees and his death was a distinct
shock to all of us. He had returned to Boston
after an operation that was only partially successful,
and, while it was evident that the second one would
be quite serious, both John and his friends expected
that he would be with us again in a short time.
He was
born in Boston on January 9, 18.5.5. At
an early age he entered the employ of the Blair
Camera Company and came to Rochester with
that concern a number of years ago, when the Blair
Company was taken over by the Eastman Kodak
Company. He retained his position as a wood-

William T. Roach has been appointed manager
and coach. "Bill's" court exploits of a few years
ago are still familiar to the fans. His ability and
knowledge of the game will be aided by a personality
that sliould Ijring out everything there is in the
players and produce a fighting combination. The
Athletic Association is extremely fortunate in
securing his services.
THE FRIDAY CLUB
The girls the Friday Club resumed their
of
activitieson Friday evening, October 14th, when
they held their first meeting of the season at the
home of May Ever.son. Plans were discussed for
the club's work during the winter months. The
following Hawk-Eye girls are members: May
Everson, Margaret Kiernan, Inez Prentice, Etta
Wilcox, Hilda Specht and Marguerite Fehrenback.
We miss the familiar figure of Michael Willig,
after seemg him about the plant for sixteen years.
"Mike" is out on a sick leave. He is seventy-six
years of age, and may retire when he has recovered
from his illness.
Did you have an opportunity to see the Cripples'
League in action? They staged some wild noon-
hour battles of "two-'o-cat" after the regular indoor
games. In the field "Pat" Patterson was the
greatest "shark," that fish usually being thought of
as typifying the height of uselessness.
The issue of the Indoor Baseball League is still
hanging fire at this WTiting, the death grapple
between the Beechnuts and Luckys having been
interrupted by the "World Series." At present
the Beechnuts top the list, with the Luckys second.
The Fatimas occupy third place and the Camels

worker and remained a faithful Kodak employee
up to the time of his death. His period of service
with the company was twenty-two ^•ea^s, a record
that has been surpassed by few at Hawk-Eye.
Those of us who are not old-timers associate him
for themost part with the elevator serving Buildings
1 and 2, which he operated without the seml)lance
of an accident during the last two years of his life.
It will be a long time before his familiar figure in
that capacity will fade from our memories, and a
still longer time before Hawk-Eye will find a more
loyal and trustworthy worker.
He leaves two sons, Edward and Joseph, to whom
we extend our heartfelt sympatliy.

KODAK BASKETBALL LEAGUE MAKES IMTL\L BOW
FOUR-TEAM CIRCUIT TO GET UNDER WAY THIS MONTH
HIGH calibre basketball for
court fans during the coming season
was assured at a meeting held October
14th when the Kodak Basketball League
was organized. Up until 1920, Kodak
Park had sported the only quintette in
the company, but that season found
Hawk-Eye, Camera Works, and Main
Office all playing the court game. As a
consequence, for the coming year Kodak
Park has decided to abandon its semi-pro
team and joiii with the other three plants
in forming a four-team league.

for the Leagiie a high degree of success

The tentative plans outlined for the
League call for a twelve-weeks schedule
with one game for each team each week.
The opening games will probably be
played on Thanksgiving Eve, with a
double-header on the Kodak Park court
one night each week thereafter. Dancing
will follow the second game each week.

Kodak The prospects for a successful league
are considered bright. Kodak Park has
chosen George Xeal as manager. He will
have Brightman, Heaney and Bonhurst
as a nucleus for his quintet, while the
Kodak Park Departmental League can
be depended upon to furnish plenty of
competition for places on the League
team.
At Hawk-Eye, "Bill" Roche, an old-
time has been selected to guide the
star,
destinies of the court artists, and his
squad includes the following veterans:
Levine, Johnson, Ligleby and Woodams.

At the former plant not a single veteran
of last year's squad is still with them.

remain from last year's five, but "^Slose"

of publication must have a real purpose,
and serve that purpose acceptably if it
is to live.
The purpose having been discovered,
a definite policy for conducting it must
be established, and this policy lived up
to, with, of course, such changes
changing conditions warrant.
Next comes the selecting of the editor
and his staff. Now almost anyone can
be an editor, but a great deal of care
must be exercised in the selection of the
assistant editors and the reportorial
staff, for they are the ones who do all
the real work, the chief editor only
having to be responsible for what they
do; so you see he has a pretty soft time
of it.
In the case of the Kodak Magazine
the editor has two associate editors, who
are in the same office with him; there is
also an assistant editor for each one of
the Rochester plants, and one for the
Main Office as you know.
it undergoes The editor and his associates go carefully
over all matter submitted, decide as to
the number and size of the illustrations
which accompany the articles, and then
the "copy" is ready for the printer and
the engraver.
Each issue of the Kodak Magazine
is printed from brand new type, which
is melted up as soon as the issue is
complete. This is made possible by
as
the use of a wonderful machine called
the "Monotype," which would require
a story itself to describe.
The printers set this type in column
widths, and when returned to
set it is

original "copy." They compare all this
type matter with the original copy, and

in our case are but few.

in an act that doubled up the adults in their chairs
and had the "kiddies" gurgling with joy. Then
Miss Estelle La Reve sang some charming songs.
She was followed by Marion Kurtz, and Xaomi

accompanied by ^^iss Dulcic Johnston at the piano.
The fourth and final number consisted of two
quartet selections, sung bv "Svd" Clarke, Frank

cakes which Mrs. Freeman and Mrs. Fiat had
made.
Next the youngsters divided their time between
the "band" and the candy booth, where "Bill"
Haeusel and Herman Rexer worked in shifts.
Many of the adults succumbed to the lure of the
Grohs' music in the dance hall, while others sought
the more secluded card tables. There was a line.

ARMISTICE DAY
Hawk-Eye had a short but impressive ceremony
on Armistice Day. A signal was soimded at 11:40,
whereupon everyone filed into the men's dining
room, which had been decorated for the occasion.
After the singing of "America the Beautiful,"
Mr. Higgins introduced Mr. John Wolfe, executive
pastor of Brick Church, who gave an inspiring
talk on the significance of the anniversary. At
exactly two minutes of twelve he brought his
address to a close and while the gathering stood
with bowed heads, a bugler, stationed in the corridor,
sounded taps. The singing of "My Country, 'Tis
of Thee" concluded the memorial ser\'ice.

OX THE COLUT
The basketball practice, held on October

there wasn't any ball with which to play. "Cliff"
Johnson has tried to shift the blame but is generally
blamed for the debacle. In any event that first
practice without a ball was just as bad as a now-
famous sausage roast without sausage.
NOT SO NICE
"Syd" Leggatt has changed his mind about the
advantages of living near one's work. One of the
Diffusion Disk workers dashed across the street and
pulled him out of bed at three in the morning a short
time ago, to tell him that something had gone
wrong with the machinery. "Syd's" comments
are not recorded.
Mrs. E. R. Kent, mother of Mrs. May Perry,
ofthe Filter Department, died on October 17th.
We offer our sincere sympathy.
 THE KODAK
WANTED— IDEAS
During tlie months October and November,
of
Hawk-Eye suggestions almost reached the vanishing
point. Eitlier we think that during periods Hke
the present there are no ideas roaming around loose,
or else we believe that this is not a good time to
submit the thoughts that have occurred to us.
Both ideas are WTong. There are as many unhar-
nessed ideas today as there are imcaught fish in the
sea. This is the time to harness tliose ideas, not
only because the company and you can make
particularly good use of their returns, but because
it should be easier to pick the good ones. The
reason for this is, that, with a high peak of
production behind us, we have a better opportunity
to think about refinements in our products, cost
reductions and improvements in general.
Perhaps we would use the Suggestion System
more extensively if we realized more fully
powerful tool it offers us to help ourselves and our
fellows. Consider for a moment the work which
you are doing. Are we putting unnecessarily
expensive materials into the product.^ Are we
using parts that could be simplified or entirely
eliminated.^ Are we doing operations by hand
that could be performed just as well by a machine?
NO CASIALTIES
The Pressed Glass Inspecting Department
suffered from a terrible explosion a few weeks ago.
"Benny" Wiemer, closing a wet umbrella in the
adjoining corridor, unintentionally caused a drop of
water to hop the partition and it came to rest,
though not for long, on one of the high-power
inspecting lamps. Both Ella Wienecke and Marie
Leimberger hit high C when the big Mazda let go.
No, there were no casualties.
LLIGI SOLDI
Sanitary Department
:SL\GAZIXE
Tell us about it, so that we may manufacture the
product at a lower cost and sell it more universally,
creating more work for yourself and for all of us.
Use the tool that is offered you.
Is your physical welfare or that of a fellow worker
jeopardized by a dangerous condition that has been
overlooked.^ Visit the suggestion box again.
Safety work is usually carried on from humani-
tarian motives, and rightly so, but, regarded from
the \-iewpoint of production, accidents are just as
bad as extravagant manufacturing methods. They
mean a loss to the company, perhaps the permanent
loss of a valuable workman. Translated into
figures they mean higher costs, fewer sales, and less
work for all of us.
All of this points to the fact that a suggestion
what a begets a greater monetary return than is indicated
by the initial award. It means the betterment of
some condition that is inevitably translated into a
saving and this saving will eventually rebound to
our benefit.
Some ideas have recently been put into operation
that will mean money in all our pockets. How
about your ideas.^
TO KEEP IT SO
All of us are proud of the appearance of our plant
and especially of the corridors in Building 6. which
Ralph Phillips recently ornamented with a fresh
coat of paint. We
have reason to be proud because
we have co-operated to keep our walls clean and
neat, and we can keep them so in the future only by
continuing that co-operation.

OPENING DANCE A ]\L\STERPIECE
Our) first glance as we entered the Dance Hall
convinced us that the Bal Masque, the getaway
event of the Annual Series of K. P. A. A. dances
was an assured success. The entire auditorium from
ceiling to floor was a mass of beautiful color, bearing
out the prophecy of something new and novel in the
way of decorations. .Vlong the south wall, were the
boxes, beautifully furnished with rugs, davenports,
comfortable chairs, tables and lamps making them
especially attractive.
There isone thing we always enjoy and that is a
Paul Jones. When this popular old-fashioned dance
was over, we felt acquainted with everybody and
the evening was made.
At last it was time for the Grand ^March, and, as
hmidreds of persons in every conceivable type of
costume marched past, we ceased to envy the
judges their comfortable seats on the platform.
Anna Sharp, of the Finished Film Department was
chosen Queen. As the lights were extinguished, a
spotlight was played on the stage at the further end
of the hall, and, as the curtain was drawn, the
throne was sho\\n, on a raised platform behind a
beautiful fountain and flower display. Six charm-
ing little pages. Gladys Horton, Ruth Page,
Mildred DeHond, Ethel Horton, Clara Luce and
Etta Benjamin escorted the Queen to the throne,
where after being cro-mied with due ceremony, she
presented to each of the other winners their prizes.
The entertainment was completed by an exibition
of dancing by the pupils of Miss Lorraine Abert.
Then someone spied the refreshment sign, and,
going downstairs, we fortified ourselves for the
remaining dance numbers, with cider, doughnuts,
crackers, cheese and apples, which j)ut the final
touch to a most enjoyable evening. One pleasing
feature was the invitation to the trick workers to
partake of the refreshments with the compliments of
the Conmiittee; a large number of them accepted
the invitation.
We are more than indebted to the people from
outside, who contributed to the party. We
thank
John Keller for the beautiful fountain used with
such good effect on the stage, amd also Charles
Xachman and Carol McConnell for the loan of the
furniture used in the boxes.
We wish to congratulate General Ciiairman Dr.
B. J. Slater, Chairman Arthur Williams, and the
Committee who gave us such a pleasant time, and
we'll be on hand for the next dance without question.

GIRLS CLAMORLVG FOR ACTION
The Kodak Park girls' basketball team, local
champions for 19!20-21, is ready and anxious for
the opening game of this season. Coach Thompson
held the first practice in September, in anticipation
of an early start, but to date, it has been impossible
to arrange a game with any of the better teams,
until after the first of the New Year. The reputa-
tion of the Park lassies has spread far, and it is
easily seen v.hy other managers are reluctant to
take a chance with our girls until they have attained
mid-season form. An opportunity will be given a
few of the best industrial girls teams of the city to
arrange for dates, although the majority of the
games will in all probability be with out-of-town
"quints." As defenders of their title, Kodak will
no doubt play the most likely of the other local
teams at the end of the season for the 19'-2l-'2!2
championship.
Last season, eighteen games were played, sixteen
resulting in wins for the Park, the only outfit to
beat them, being the famous Clark-Munies of
Cleveland, Ohio, world's championship girls' team.
Among the most important victories were those
over the "Shredded Wheats" of Niagara Falls, and
the Douglas Girls of Pittsburg. The slogan of the
team this season is "Beat the Munies," and this,
they expect to accomplish, if satisfactory arrange-
ments can be made for a game.
Marguerite Ellis is again managing the girls' team
and those interested in booking games are advised
to get in touch with her, in care of the K. P. A. A.

KODAK PARK IN NEW BASKETBALL CAPTAIN WILLIAMS SPEAKS TO

LEAGUE
Although, as announced in the November issue
of the Kodak- Magazine, the Park is not to be rep-
resented by a team in the semi-pro basketball
world this season, it does not mean that we will not
have basketball. The newly-organized Kodak
League includes the four larger Eastman divisions,
and Kodak Park has a good representative team in
the field.
George Neal, of the Tool Room, has been ap-
pointed Manager for this season, and is attending
to the business end of the games for the Park. At
present, the following men have been selected as
regulars: Jack Brightman, Harold Stephenson,
William Scanlon, Elwood Bonhurst. Charles Bright-
man. Henry McCarthy and Garth Rockcastle. Jack
Brightman has been a member of the Kodak Park
team for a number of years, and is considered one of
the fastest forwards in the city. The other players
have all had more or less experience, and can be
depended upon to make the other teams in the
League hustle.
FOREMEN'S CLUB
The second monthly Dinner Meeting of the
Kodak Park Foremen's Club was unusually well
attended and fully as enjoyable as the October
event. This was due, aside from the excellent
"feed," to the interesting talk given by Captain
Grant Williams. Captain Williams, organizer of
the " Bureau of Missing Persons, " and formerly head
of one of the famous "Special Squads," of the New
York Police Department, gave as the subject of his
address, "Amazing Identification," citing the great
value of the "finger print," as a means of positively
establishing a person's identity. The members
reluctantly allowed the speaker to depart after
talking nearly two hours.
During the dinner. "Art" Taylor's orchestra
rendered several excellent instrumental numbers
and Ferre Marzlufl^ and George Frank sang a
number of pleasing duets, assisted by George
Englehardt at the piano.
The next meeting will be held in December.
 THE KODAK :MAGAZIXE
KODAK PARK LEADING
Playing the brand of football for which Kodak
Park is justly famous, our team on Sunday, Novem-
ber 6th, met and defeated the MacXaughton
Rangers, by the one-sided score of 8 to 1. By reason
of this victory, we went into first place in the
Rochester and District Soccer League.
Playing ofl" of the National Cup games delayed
the R. & D. schedule several weeks, and the first
contest was staged on October 30th, nearly a month
late. At the opening of the fall series, Kodak Park
was in second place. While we were defeating the
Celtics on the above date, the ]\Iac"s also won,
which placed the Rangers ahead by a slight margin.
The decisive \'ictory for Kodak, when these two
teams met, demonstrated that the Park team, com-
posed of the youngest players in the League, has
the makings of a championship eleven.
Individually, there is little room for a choice in
picking any particular star or stars. Every position,
despite the fact that Kodak Park was supposed to
be badly crippled through the loss of several good
F. W. BREHM LECTLRES BEFORE CAMERA
CLUB
The first meeting of the Kodak Park Camera
Club for the season of was held in Building
19!21-2'-2
28, on Wednesday evening, November Kitli.
Supper was served to about one himdred members
of the Club in the second floor cafeteria. Following
this, F. W. Brehm, President of the Camera Works
Camera Club, gave a very interesting illustrated
lecture, "A Trip Through Bonnie Scotland."'
The program of activity for the coming months is
being prepared by a Committee appointed by Presi-
dent Tuttle, and a busy season is promised. The
"Supper and Lecture" plan inaugurated last winter
proved very popular, and will probably be followed
out again all this year. The meetings are not
limited to members, the privilege of inviting a
friend having been extended to all.
All are urged to attend the next event to be given
on Wednesday, December 14th, John L Crabtree
will address the members on this occasion, his sub-
ject being: "How to Take Snap-Shots."
On Sunday, November 20th, about thirty mem-
bers took a hike to Durand Eastman Park.
Plans are underway for the Annual Banquet and
Dance to be held on Wednesday, January 11th, 1922.
At th.is time, officers for 1922 will be elected.
BO^^XL\G
LE.\GL"ES HAVE HIT THEIR STKIDE
In the K. P. A. A. Bowling League, the Senecas
are winning regularly, and are considered by many,
as the strongest team in the League. The other
teams seem to have their share of hard luck regularly
and aside from the Ponies and Headlights, are break-
ing about even on the games rolled.
In the Yard League, the teams are pretty well
divided with the Steel Shed still in the lead. The
Kodee League composed of employees of Trick No. 3
of the Emulsion Coating Department is having a
good time all by itself. Four teams are entered.
IX SOCCER LEAGUE
men, is filled by able players. Perhaps, a word as to
the ability of the Park forwards would not be out
of place at this time. Such men as Brightman
Fratter, Foster, McKinley and Mears, playing
together, are almost impossible to stop. Fast as
lightning, and sure of foot, their ability to count
when scores are needed, is a strong factor in the
team's success.
Three more games are scheduled in the fall series.
The Moose, Holland A. C. and Camera Works will
be played within the next month, and with the
Kodak team in its present condition, the trophy
begins to look like a positive fact.
The new Kodak Park Soccer Field was opened for
game on October 30th, and the fact that,
the Celtic
Kodak was for the first time on its home grounds
may have had something to do with its 3—0 victory
over League leaders. The field is situated on the
Ridge Road, just a step west of the Dewey Avenue
car line, and is considered the finest in Rochester.
B. HALLETT SALXSMAN
On Wednesday, October 19th, Hallett Saulsman.
one of the best-known and most popular of the
younger men at Kodak Park, died after an illness of
less than three weeks.

DEUCES ENTERTAINED AT ANNUAL BASEBALL DINNER
The annual Dinner and Entertainment of the
Noon-Hour baseball players and fans was held on
Thursday evening, November '•2d, about sixty-five
persons attending. The affair was a complete
success. An excellent dinner was served. Willis's
Synthetic Orchestra furnished very ])leasing music
during the dinner, and Horace Robinson led the
singing. The guests of honor were James H. Haste,
Manager of Kodak Park Works; and D. E. Reid,
President of the K. P. A. A. "Father" John
Shepherd, Toastmaster, in his opening remarks,
expressed regret over the absenceof Harry Hastings,
the most loyal of all the supporters of the Noon-
Hour League. Three hearty cheers were given for
Mr. Hastings.
In making the statement that the season of 19'-21
had been the most successful of any, since the League
was first organized fourteen years ago, Mr. Shepherd
referred to the attendance, which had averaged
about six hundred persons at each game. After
reviewing the events of the sea.son, a vote of thanks
was extended to James Ward and John Manhold,
who had acted as umpires during the season, and
al.so Laura Connaughton, who faithfully attended
to
to the sounding of the bell, designating the time
limit of the same each noon.
A. E. Metzdorf, of the Y. M. C. A., was the
principal speaker of the evening, and distributed
gifts to about twenty of the players and fans, among
these being a little reminder of approaching old age
to "Rip" Renzoni. and to Walter Fox, a jar of his
favorite jam. The members of the Deuces team,
and the umpires were presented with Eversharp
pencils by the Association.
Mr. Haste and Dr. Reid spoke a few words of
appreciation to the players. Dr. Reid being inter-
rupted by an unscheduled demonstration of the
activity of Du Pont Field powder as a cigarette

22 THE KODAK
" TO ROCHESTER
It is always interesting to "see ourselves as others
see us," and especially so when other people's
opinions are complimentary. In England, the com-
pany operates a plant at Harrow-on-the-Hill
Wealdstone, which vies with Kodak Park for
tiful natural surroundings. It was the Editor's
pleasure to witness the employees sports-day during
the summer of 191-1, and a finer "Kodak" spirit
coidd not be displayed than that of the boys and
girls who revelled in a regular picnic arranged by the
managers of Kodak, Limited, (,'onsequently it was
with delight that we noticed, in our English cousins
publication. "Kodak Works Bulletin," an article
entitled "To Rochester," -wTitten in serial form, by
Mr. S.H. Wratten.
Wratten is the originator of the world-famous
yiv.
Wratten dry plate, and is now chief of the Develop-
ment Department at our company's English divi-
sion. He paid an official visit to Rochester, and his
descriptions and reflections of the journey, of our
city, and of the people he met, are more than enter-
taining. Mr. Wratten is a wTiter of no mean repute,
and his literary style in these series of articles is of
the finest "King's English." He pays tribute to
the rising power of .\merica in the following
sentences.
"If America today owes her greatness to tiie
immigrant of yesterday, to what will she grow when,
tomorrow, she releases the mental abilities of, for
instance, the Polish Jews; and the inborn musical
genius of these Czecho-Slovaks, together with the
varied intellectual powers that now lie latent in this
assorted crowd. Frankly, I am happy, I see the
progeny of these people, naturally receptive and
keenly eager for education, developing their talents
in well-equipped schools. I see the inter-breeding,
which, by all teachings of biologj', produces the
finest people, and I a.sk my.self if the result will be
equalled in the old countries. I do not think it
will be. Europe appears to have passed its merid-
ian —the sun has risen in the Xew Worlds, and of
"WE'RE WITH YOU '
At the recent Tenth Annual Congress of tiie
Xational Safety Council, J. A. Robertson was
elected to represent Rochester on the X'ational
Executive Committee. This virtually means that
"Jack" himself is commander-in-chief in this
trict as far as co-operation with the national body
is concerned. It is just possible that a national
resolution might not "fit in" with local problems
and conditions; so, in order to overcome such a con-
dition, seven divisional representatives were elected,
Mr. Robertson being ours.
Let us stand firmly back of him. Let us give him
this message to convey to the executive body:
"Rochester is the safest city in the United States.
Conspicuous among the industrial plants of the city,
is the Camera Works, whose record against acci-
dents is a matter of civic pride. Every employee is
backing me up in my firm conviction that the gospel
of safety, and its application, is one of the most
important phases of the social and economic life of
America."
Let's all stand up and shout "We're with you.
:\L\GAZINE
"
these the greatest and most advanced is "America."
yir. Wratten takes us, in his story, from the port
of Southampton, England, to Xew York, minutely
and describing the sea voyage, —
and then on to Roches-
beau- ter. His comparison between American and Euro-
pean travelling facilities is both amusing and intel-
ligent. After giving us a droll idea of a "sleeper,"
he says, "I am watching a fellow passenger per-
forming the sleeping car ritual by drinking water on
rising froni his berth —the full dimensions of which
are approximate to a camera shipping case. A neat
pile of paper bags are so arranged as to be detached
one at a time. I took my turn and my bag and —
then the fun commenced. Drinking out of a paper
V)ag in a swaying train is an art; the bag of water
wobbles like jelly. ^line wobbled so much that
the water missed my mouth and disappeared be-
tween my collar and neck. It was beautifully
clean, ice-cold water, and very wet and satisfying."
Rochester is reviewed from all angles. Regard-
ing motor cars, the story states that "Police on
motorcyles wait like panthers to spring upon the
man or woman whose car exceeds '-2.5." The art of
driving in America is to see the 'traffic cop" first. If
he sees you first, then you get a green tag on your
steering wheel. This gives you the freedom of
the City Police Station, and the undivided atten-
tion of the Inspector, who will introduce you to the
Judge, who in turn tells you to a dollar, the cost
of sin, and its remission."
I will not attempt to i^uote excerpts from Mr.
Wratten's vivid story about the Camera Works, or
the other Rochester plants. To those of us who
enjoy well-written literature with a sprinkle of
satire and comedy, the quotations contain enough
spice to sharpen our appetites to digest the whole
story. The Industrial Relations Department has
all the installments from the Kodak Works Bulletin
to date, which will be gladly loaned to our readers
who appreciate a chance to "see ourselves as
others see us.
YOUR MOX'EY'S WORTH
In the atliletic section, you will find a general
story covering basketball. You will note that
Charlie Kivell is to engineer our basketball fiends

Board of Managers promised you lots of advan-

would require the knowledge of an iiydraulic expert,
but we can tell you .sometliing of the simi)lcr methods
the company has installed against danger from fire.
On building Xo. !), a steel tower supports a tank
having a cajjacity of forty thousand gallons, which
is used for supi)lyiiig the sjirinklfr system in that
particular structure. Suspended from eacii ceiling
are several two-inch pipes, which have, every ten
feet, a device known as a "sprinkler head." Tiie
head consists of an automatic valve, which, under
23
normal conditions, is kept closed by a fusible sub-
stance. Should this substance become subject to
abnormal heat of 16.5 degrees, it melts, tlms releasing
—
the valve, and causing the water which is kept
—
under high pressure to spray in all directions. One
does not have to be an engineer to realize how in-
valuable such an invention is, for it means that
between each floor is a barrage of water, which
practically serves as a fire-proof wall. On the roof
of Building 1 and -2 are two tanks with a capacity of
eleven thousand four hundred, and twelve thousand
gallons respectively. Again, on Building 3, a con-
tainer holds twenty-five thousand gallons of water,
and on liuildings 11 and 1'2, thirty-four thousand
gallons. Thus we see the tremendous volume
which is held in readiness for fire emergencies.
Throughout the six buildings which comprise the
Camera Works are sixty-two hose-pipes attached to
stand-pipes. The hose-pipes placed end to end,
would measure four thousand, five hunrlred and
fifty feet, or four-fifths of a mile.
Naturally such a water system requires careful
inspection. The hose must be examined, the water
measured, the steam pimips tested, and the main
hydrants must always be in perfect working order.
Sam Barons is the man having this responsible
duty to perform, and his inspection, together with
the three hundred men who comprise the fire pre-
vention squad, make our factory more than reason-
ablv safe from fire hazards.

Editor extends the sincere wish of a happy and
prosperous Xew Year. With conditions shaping
themselves toward normal, the outlook for the com-
ing twelve months is merry and bright. Most of
our fears and hopes are governed by our own state
of mind, so it's up to all of us to say that business is
booming, and then work like '"old Harry" to make
it so.
Kodak Park extends a hearty invitation to
Camera Workers to visit its splendid assembly hall
each Wednesday night until further notice, to dance
and watch basketball. Let us take full advantage
of this friendly get-together invitation.
A very enjoyable Hallowe'en party was arranged
for the office girls and boys, "Al"Weltzer having
charge of the affair. A
large barn was donated
the purpose, and" 'Billy "Lawrence helped to decorate
with corn stalks and Jack-0-Lanterns. The party
indidged in dancing and games, and a spread of
good things.
Sympathy is extended to the family of Anna
Goldman, who recently passed away, leaving a sad
void in the hearts of her manv friends.
Phillip Mattle of the Tool Supervision Depart-
ment, is using every minute of his spare time in
order to complete his house at Honeoye Lake Ijefore
the spring fishing season arrives. Phil is evidently
figuring on the boys staying over the week ends, for he
tells us that the building is being partitioned to
accommodate dozens of beds. A two-story house,
with, as Phil expresses it, a " Noah's Ark" attic,
should prove a great attraction to "the gang"
during the good old summer time.

an investigation was started to discover, if possible,
the whereabouts of the article.
Fortunately, it was found reposing peacefully in
an employee's desk drawer. The employee was
perfectly innocent of the fact that somebody was
worrying about the loss of the watch, and he was
also unconscious of the fact that a reward had been
offered for its recovery.
Happily everything was straightened out very
satisfactory, but it all goes to prove how much
easier it would be if all articles found in the factory
were turned over to the Industrial Relations Depart-
ment.
This rule also applies to employees who have lost
all
articles. Please bear in mind that only by strict co-
operation can we give efficient service to everyone.

An enjoyable evening was spent by over half of

Extra fine music was provided for dancing by

Four, composed of Messrs. Brown, Hilbert, (ioebel

was well received with a basso solo.

GIRLS ON THE COURT AGAIN

and it looks as though a fighting team would be
developed. Clara EfYord, who was one of the main-
stays of last year's team, has been chosen Captain.
The manager has been trying to secure the Exposi-

The K. O. R. C. fall dance proved to be one of
the most successful in the history of the Club.
On the evening of November loth, a full moon rose
over the Masonic Temple and a goodly number of
Kodak Office employees and their friends drifted
in to dance to the strains of Damon's Orchestra.
Department heads and club officers were among the
crowd and Harry Seaman with his bevy of pretty
girls behind the punch bowl occupied a very popular
corner of the hall. The punch was of the usual
good vintage, and the music continued until mid-
night. A word of credit should be said for Alice
Upton and her efficient workers, who managed the
dance so successfullv.
THIRTY-TWO YEARS OF SERVICE
Camera Works may have the leading man in
length of service for the Rochester branches, but
the Finishing Department is inclined to claim
the leading lady. Luella Thompson had her thirty-

headquarters on the eighth floor, and is now located

TIME RIPE FOR INDOOR LEAGUE

—
Indooi baseball on the outdoor dia-
mond — reached heights hitherto unknown
in Rochester, during the past summer.
Hawk-Eye, Kodak Park, and the Kodak
Office, all had departmental leagues in
w^hich interest ran high, while exciting
series were played between these three
plants. Camera Works has supported a
departmental league during each of the
past two winters.
What more logical, then, that this
widespread interest should be crystallized
into a company League? Hawk-Eye has
consistently been a contender in the City
Indoor League in w hich Kodak Park and
Camera Works were also represented in
1919-'20. But, the time seems to have
come when this sport should be included
in the roster of Kodak inter-plant activi-
ties. Theplayers are here, and the
interest; so, about all it needs, is some-
body to organize the project.

NOSTRUMS
HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars
are spent each year for "patent"
medicine nostrums. But few liave any
curative ]:)roj)erties whatsoever, and many
are decidedly harmful in that they are
habit-forming'. Many fatalities are on
record due to the giving of these
"medicines" to small children and infants.
In most cases, when these remedies have
any medicinal value whatsoever, the
purchaser pays an exhorbitant price, as
they are usually compounded of some
simple ingredients which could be pur-
chased for one-tenth the sum in any drug
store.
Certain obvious things never seem to
impress themselves upon the purchaser
of these nostrums. It does not seem to
occur to him that, if the patent medicines
of a past generation had possessed the
powers claimed for them, they would
continue to sell when no longer adver-
tised, or at least if they did not, it would
be because they had banished sickness
from the earth. Like the old, the present
day nostrums will drop out of sight and
be forgotten when their advertising, the
only thing which now sustains them, is
discontinued.
If grown-up men and women j)ersist
in spending, throwing away, good money
for trash, it is perhaps quite their own
business, but when helpless children and
infants are so often .subjected to dangerous
medication, it seems well to sound a
warning.
The practice of giving infants soothing
syrups and "teething" mixtures has often
been attended with .serious results owing
to the presence of opiates, such as mor-
phine and laudanum. Remedies for such
disturbances should never be given except
on the advice of a reputable physician.
The coroner of one of our largest cities,
death of two infants,
in investigating the
presinnably from an overdose of a
certain baby remedy, made some experi-
ments with it. First, he gave a six-days-
old puppy 30 drops of the prei)aration.
The pup never awakened from the deep
sleep that overcame him at once. He
gave a two-weeks-old kitten 20 drops
and she promptly went to sleep and slej)t
four hours. The next day he gave her
30 drops which put her to sleep forever.
Great caution should be exercised with
regard to the midtitude of headache
remedies now on the market, as a goodly
number of them contain poisons that
have produced fatal effects. If a head-
ache will not yield to a few hours sleep,
or some simple remedy for a stomach
disarrangement, consult your physician.
There are patent medicines for all the
ills that flesh is heir to, and for many
imaginary ones, as well. We could con-
tinue on through any number of jiages
pointing out the absurdity of the claims
made for most of them, but at best the
most we can do is to ask you to use
judgment before spending your money.
Many people assume that the Federal
Food and Drugs Act, commonly known
as the Pure Food Law, effectively safe-
guards the public against the menace of
the nostrums. This act exercises no
control over statements that are published
separate from the package, such as in
newspaper advertisements and hand bills
distributed from door to door.
There is always danger in self -diagnosis
and self -treatment. Do not take chances
with your own health, and the health
of your family. Avoid the use of medi-
cines with which you are not familiar,
and which have not been recommended
or prescribed by your physician.

 THE KODAK
KODAK PARK'S SALVAGE DEPARTMENT
HERBERT Hoover responsible for vantageous to allow material to accumu-
is
the statement that, if all waste could
be eliminated from American industry, the
cost of productionwoidd be reduced fifty
per cent. The idea of utilizing the by-
product, of throwing away nothing from
which value can possibly be derived is, to
be sure, not new. Practically every large
industry has been working in this direc-
tion for some years. We are all familiar
with the famous boast of the packing in-
dustry, that nothing goes to waste except
the squeal. Mr. Hoover's statement em-
phasizes the necessity for a more inten-
sive application of the salvage principle.
Our own plant at Kodak Park has
veloped the science of waste elimination
to a high degree until production there,
is now carried on with a minimum of loss
and spoilage. The good work has not
stopped there, however. The Kodak
Park plant goes farther, and from the
inevitable waste, tries to reclaim as much
as possible. This is done by what is
called the Salvage Department.
The job of the Kodak Park Salvage
Department, then, is to rescue the waste
articles of tlje plant — that is, to save
put to use again those articles which
would wind up on the scrap-pile if there
were no such Department. The rescued
articles, the "spoils" of the salvagers, are
renovated and put to work again in the
plant, or else sold on the outside. This
latter factor makes it imperative that
those in charge of our salvage work shall
be men who are at all times thoroughly
familiar with market conditions, with a
nice sen.se of the psychological time and
place to sell. Just take your Purchasing
Agent's job and invert it; then, you'll
get a slant at the selling end of the salvage
game. During tlie war. this part of the
problem was less difficult. Then, almost
any kind of salvaged material found a
ready market at a high price. Tiie chief
was to find material
difficulty fast enough
to supply the demands of the })urchasers.
Now, however, conditions are different
again, and our salvage people find it
.^L\GAZI^E
late over a longer period of time, in the
expectation of being able to sell at a
better price.
We can best visualize the work of this
department by taking a little trip to the
various salvage warehouses. These, four
in number, are scattered here and there,
two in the vicinity of the Ridge Road
gate, and the other pair beyond Dewey
Avenue in Kodak Park West. Eventu-
ally, they will all be grouped together in
the latter location, not far from the new
power plant.
We come first to the warehouse u.sed for
de- the storage of paper. Besides the scrap
paper, we find rags, rag dust, burlap, and
cotton swee])ings. A baler packs these
paper accumulations in large bales, which
are then shipped away, whenever the
accumulations reach carload lots.
Not far from the paper storage, we
find another large building formerly used
as a lumber warehouse. Here, there
seems to be no limit to the Aariety of
rescued articles. Piles of wooden boxes
tower up to the ceiling. In one corner
and stands a truck from another local factory
loading up with boxes which will there
be used again. Other boxes are broken
up, and sold as lumber. In another
corner is a quantity of excelsior, some
baled, some still loose in the pile.
Another thing of which the layman
would seldom think is cork. Behind the
construction workers on new buildings,
the Salvage Department picks up small
pieces of cork left over from, for instance,
packing heating pipes. This cork is
ground u]) and kei)t in storage here, avail-
able for use on a similar job at any time.
The cost of cork thus salvaged is about one
and one-half cents per pound. Purcha.sed
on the open market, it would cost four or
five cents.
In this building, we also fintl empty
cement bags which have a re-sale value of
about fifteen cents each.

Here, too, is a small quantity of scrap

at present, unsalable, though, during
the war, it was unobtainable for love or
money.
K Next we come to a
corner which looks
little room
as though it might
have been the office of the hmiber com-
pany which once occupied the building.
And here we find a man busy folding,
shaking and brushing big bags made of
Canton flannel. Inquiring "why," we
learn that these bags are used for filtering
the air which is let into various buildings
about the plant. This filtration, as you
know, is necessary to exclude any impuri-
ties which might damage some of our
sensitive products in process
facture. When these flannel bags become
dirty, they are sent to the laundry,
thence to this Salvage Department ware-
house where they are carefully brushed.
This brushing brings up the nap, and
makes the bag fit for use again. Some-
times tiny holes creep in which must be
repaired before the bag is put back into
service. Of course, they won't last for-
ever anyway, but this cleaning and brush-
ing process gives them a much longer lease
of life.
And now we take quite a long "hike"
over to Kodak Park West. Here, at the
north side of the main road, w^e come
upon an open space where are piled big
metal containers, painted black. These
metal cylinders are perhaps fifteen feet
long, and a foot or more in diameter. We
learn that they are containers for oxygen
or ammonia. These cylinders are worth in
the neighborhood of thirty dollars each.
It doesn't pay to lose them, either, for
every one is billed to the company when
it is shipped, and must be returned if we
are to receive credit. The same ruling
applies to the big ten-gallon carboys
which come in filled with acid-
tion, this open-air storage has a variety
of metal barrels and other containers,
with a high re-sale value-
Near at hand, we find another storage
of these building containing machine parts, suit-
able for replacement purposes, and some
old machines, not now fit for service. The
nickeled parts are well protected with
"dope" to prevent rust. If you don't
know just this "dope" is, ask some
what
has been in the army or the
who

navy and has had the job of cleaning up a
rifle or an automatic as it comes out of
storage. He'll tell you all about it. At
stated intervals, the contents of this
building are carefully gone over by an
Inventory Committee, which determines
which items shall be kept in stock, and
which shall be dismantled or sold.
The farthest west of the four buildings
occupied by the Department is the Metal
Stores Building. Here are all kinds of
of manu- scrap metal, neatly separated into piles, or
stored in bins. There are piles of scrap
and steel and iron, and bins containing red
brass, yellow brass, lead, copper, or metal
filings. A ready market for these metals
is found with local junk dealers.
Out in the open again, we find our-
selves facing piles of scrap lumber. They
remind one of the parade ground of an
army cantonment along about November,
1917, when the "cost-plus" contractors
had about finished their construction
work, and before they had started to
"police up." This scrap hmiber, hauled
hither from construction jobs in all parts
of the plant, was formerly sold to em-
ployees for $1.00 a cord. It contained
many good pieces from which the pur-
chaser could rig up a porch, garage, or
storm-house- Now, however, all this
lumber is sorted before it is sold, and
much of it proves satisfactory for outside
construction. The residue makes excel-
lent firewood.
One of the most interesting cogs in the
salvage machine is the chap they call the
"Pick-up Man. " His job is to make the
rounds of the plants at stated intervals,

COMMON SENSE
A BARGAIN is a bargain only
you require wliat you buy. If you
purchase an article because the price
when
attracted you and the need for the thing
does not exist, then the transaction was
not a bargain, except for the shopkeeper's
pocket," so remarks a writer in "House
and Garden."
He continues: "Thrift has been a badly
used word. " Up to 1917, Americans rather
looked down on the word, and avoided
using it. As for practicing thrift, such a
proceeding was beneath one's class.
"Theodore Roosevelt gave the word
"thrift" a splendid definition- -"Thrift
is common sense applied to spending."
"Common sense applied to spending"
sums up the whole duty of the house
manager. Common sense is keeping one-
self balanced, watching your step, as the
trolley conductors say.
"The first way to apply common sense
is not to buy too hurriedly. Do not

"I know a woman whose husband has
an income of $15,000 a year, and every
—
morning of the week except Sundays
she goes out on her tour of markets and
stores, selects her meat, watches the
proper cut and sees it weighed. She
talks with the grocer, examines the eggs,
peers into the lettuce head, chooses her
celery bunch and sees to her order being
made ready for sending."
"This woman has become an expert.
She is not cheated, nor overcharged.
Her shopping occupies about an hour of
her morning, but she makes a profit in
that hour. She also saves time in other
purchases she makes. x\mong these are
canned goods, or as the trade calls them,
package goods. She is an expert, and
being this, she relies upon experts.
"America is the one country of the
world that has developed package goods
the farthest. Consequently, in spite of
what statisticians declare, it is probably
the cheapest, dollar for dollar, to live in.
"Buying as this woman does, the raw
materials for her needs, she must rely

This came from
she started, as most
for
American brides begin the managing of
their homes, with hardly a rudimentary
knowledge of housekeeping. But she
plunged in, and learned, and the shop-
keepers respect her and serve her. On
her side of the bargain she also respects
the knowledge of others. This she shows
in the buying of reliable goods, which
have authority."
"Mr. Roosevelt's definition of thrift is
'true, but the power of that definition for
good comes from the authority of the
man who uttered it. Exactly so with the
authority of goods which have back of
them the reputation of their producers."
"Bargains are not always bargains.
Sometimes in season, bargains sail into
view and should be hailed and boarded
like swiftly disappearing ships. But
authority is always authority, and when
it believes in itself, authority for its own
sake makes good."
"You can purchase a cake of authorita-
tive soap, or a piece of furniture, or a
coat or pair of shoes, or an electric heater,
and, if it carries a good name, you can
rest assured of getting your money back
when it does not make good. And you
can be reasonably content that such
products have in them good materials
well put together. But you cannot
expect such assurances from things that
come casually out of an open barrel."
"Summed up, common sense in spend-
ing is knowing what you want and going
to the right place to get it; seeing what
you buy when you buy it; assuring your-
self that it carries the guarantee of an
expert; and apportioning your expendi-
ture properly among the needful re-
quirements of your home according to
the best information your budget fig-
ures give you."
The great trouble with the school of
experience is that the course is so long
that the graduates are too old to go to
work.

W. Armstrong, of the Kodak Park Club, selected
the winners among the fur-bearing stock.
The special feature of theshow was the Egg-
Laying Contest. This was a new attraction and
created much interest. Ten entries, consisting of
five birds to a coop, were received. These coops
were kept locked and a record of the results made
from day to day. At the close of the contest on
Friday evening, a triple tie existed, the entries of
Frank W. Armstrong, Howard Carey and Meine
Lighthart each having accounted for fourteen eggs.
When it came to the weigh-off, Frank W. Arm-
strong was the lucky man, his \-ictory being a
matter of grains.
Another interesting attraction was the display
pens. One of the most imusual of these was en-
tered by RoVjert ('aine of the Fire Department,

its full share of attention. A number of first honors
went to Fred Hable, of the Cine Slitting Depart-
ment, whose Silver Wyandotte pullet was adjudged
the champion bird of tiie Exhibit, while another one
of his entries took first prize in the pouter pigeon
class. In addition to these, Mr. Habel's pen was
judged the best at the exhibit.

FOREMEN'S CLUB ELECTION GIRLS READY TO PLAY

B. R. BAUMGARDT SPEAKER AT DECEMBER MEETINCi It issomewhat discouraging, after working hard
to build up a winning combination, to find it almost
We are sure that one of the reasons for the bifi impossible to obtain o[)ponents. This is abf)ut the
"turn outs" at the Foremen's CUib dinner meetings
is found in the dinners Fred Grastorf "sets up."
Another reason is the speakers. At the December
meeting held on Thursday, the 10th. Professor B.
R. Baumgardt addressed the Chib, his subject be-
ing "The Frontiers of the Universe and Recent
Triumphs in CelestialPhotography."
Professor Baumgardt, aside from possessing a
thorough knowledge of his subject, has that ability
to place it before his hearers in a most comprehen-
sive way. His talk was very much enjoyed by
everyone present.
The newly organized Kodak Park Double ^lale
Quartet, under the direction of George Engelhardt,
made its first appearance at this meeting. To
say that they are fine by no means expresses
the hit they made. Let's have them at every
meeting.
Following the regular program the annual election
of officers for the year 1922 was held. John
Schaefl^er, whose able leadership during the present M.\H10N DkBURGER.MISTER
term has been a large factor in the Club's success,
HELEN COXOVER
was re-elected by a unanimous vote. All the other
oflBcerswere also re-elected. New players with girls' baskelliall team

Arrangements are under way for the Annual

Ladies' Party to be held January l!2th. Everyone
will remember the good time enjoyed last year,
and the Committee surely is not considering
"falling down" on this one big annual. Don't fail
to bring the wife or lady friend.
HOBBY CLUB EXHIBITS
Though the Hobby Club is still in its infancy, a
stranger viewing the collections entered at their
first Exhibit held in conjunction with the Fur and
Feather Show would have believed it an organiza-
tion of long standing. At present, there are only
about twenty-five members, nearly very one of
whom participated in the first Exhibit.
The coin collection of Thomas ^Murray consisted
of about one hundred and fifty coins, including the
"Widow's Mite" of Biblical note, dating back to
the year 29 A. D., as well as a set of four Siberian
coins from the reign of Empress Catherine II.
Ralf Smith showed almost a complete collection of
the U. S. big penny. The collection of coins entered
by Perry Wright attracted considerable notice.
The.se coins had been hoarded in China and Asia,
and were lo.st for over one hundred years. The
recent rise in the price of silver resulted, liowever,
in their being l)rought to light, and they were sold
by weight, thus l)ringing somewhat more than their
actual value as regular legal tender.
The collections of Paul L;inge included many
species of butterflies, and also a complete set of
mail stamps of all issues to date.
Howard Carey showed a fine collection of stamps,
gathered with a view to obtaining the most beautiful
specimens of stamps in existence.
Collections of Indian relics, arrow heads, minerals
and fossils were exhibited l)y Earle II. Potter, Stuart
Carroll and I^eroy F. Fairchild. ]\Ir. Carroll's
collection included a rare Banner Stone used during
Indian times as a sign of authority, and carried
before the chiefs in council.
situation of the girls' basketball team as far as
local teams are concerned, and it begins to look
as if Manager Marguerite Ellis woidd have to
depend entirely on out-of-towii teams for dates this
season. It would be an easy matter to keep the
team busy playing in other cities where their reputa-
tion has made them a big drawing card. A few-
games will necessarily be played away from home,
but the principal object in organizing the Kodak
Park team is to provide recreation for the Kodak
Park people. Therefore, home games, or at least
games in Rochester, are most desirable.
An effort is being made to arrange games with the
Oneida Commimity girls' team of Sherrill, N. Y'.
Arrangements are also under way for games with
the Duchess girls of Warren, Ohio, and the Douglas
girls of Pittsbm-g, Pennsylvania. The latter will
undoubtedly be a very big attraction inview of the
fact that Kodak Park defeated tliis team last year
by a single point.
Two new players have been added to the Kodak
Park squad this season and give promise of becom-
ing valuable members of the team. They are
Marion DeBurgermister and Helen Conover. Both
have had considerable experience.

An effort will again be made to bring the Clark-
Munies, World's Champions, to Rochester some
time after the first of the vear.
Salem Evangelical Church was the scene of a
very pretty wedding on Thanksgiving Eve at <i
o'clock, when Marcella Spiniller of the Pay Roll
(Community Chest Division) was united in mar-
riage to James Pickworth. Among the pre-
nuptials was a niisoellaneous shower given by Hazel
Wood and Lillian Dentinger, which was attended
by the girls of the Pay Roll. After a brief trip
Mr. and Mrs. Pickworth will reside at 80 Ohio
Street. The Department heartily wishes them
much joy and happiness.

Each person entering the hall received a small

evening, added considerably to the Christmas tone.
During intermission several select numbers sung
by the Rocliester Operatic Quartet, were very well
received. Following this, several prizes were
awarded.
James A. Hart, chairman of this dance, instilled
in his committee a spirit of enthusiasm akin to his
own, which perhaps accounted for the tremendous
success of our third party.
Equally enjoyable was the "Harvest Moonlight"
dance held November 18th. A decidedly clever
arrangement of colors gave one the impression of a
beautiful moonlight evening with stars and harvest
moons in prominence. The subdued lighting effect
achieved by placing paper moons over the lights did
much to add an autumnal tone to the affair. Corn-
stalks and pumpkins around the pillars and refresh-
ment booths completed the picture.
Anna Sharp, well known Kodak Park soloist,
rendered a number of solos to the accompaniment
of the orchestra during the evening. During
intermission, gas-filled toy balloons were distributed
about the hall, one hundred of these being num-
bered. Those receiving the marked balloons were
presented with boxes of candy.

SOCCER TEAM ESTABLISHES RECORD
The Kodak Park soccer players and officials
are to be congratulated on the fine showing made
during the fall series of the R. & D. League. At
the close of the spring series the Park team was in
third place, and further handicapped through the
loss of several of its best players. Prospects for
fall did not look very promising. However, they
fought their way through in fine style, setting up a
local record by winning every one of the regular
scheduled games. Most remarkable has been the
playing of the Kodak Park defense, only one goal
having been scored through them, while the Park
forwards accounted for thirty points against their
opponents. To select any one individual for special
mention would hardly Ije fair, as every man on the
team has had an equal part in winning the games.
Kodak Park was tied with the Celtics for first
honors in the League, but a game played at West
High field, December 18th, resulted in a win for
the Celtics by a score of 2-1.
WE'RE OUT FOR THE FLAG
Kodak Park's team in the newly formed Kodak
Basketball League has lost to Hawk-Eye and
defeated Camera Works in the first two games of
the schedule. Our boys lost the opening game by
three points, but a poor start is better than a poor
ending, and with all due respect to the efforts,
ambitions and designs of the other three managers,
Kodak Park is going to win the pennant for the
season of 1921-1922.
George Neal is Manager of the Park outfit and
Jack Brightman, Captain. We have some good
men on the squad, including Thompson, Captain
"Jack" and his brother, "Charlie." Games are
being played every Wednesday night, a double-
header, and afterwards there is dancing, ^^'hy not
come down to the next game and see what our
team can do.^
Harley W. Quackenbush of Kodak Park West
wishes to thank his friends at Kodak Park for the
which they presented him on his return to
gift
work. He also appreciates the work of the Medi-
cal Department for medical attention received
during his recent illness.
DEPARTMENTAL BASBCETEERS
SWING OUT
The Kodak Park Departmental Basketball League
was reorganized for the season of 1921-1922 with
six teams in the fold: Research, Office, Building
.50, Soccer Club, Film, and Engineering and
^laintenance. Harold Hudson of Building ;? was
elected ])resident, and ('harles Flagg, vice-presi-
dent.
Under the rule adopted this season, players in
departments represented in the League, must, if
they play at all, affiliate with their own team.
Those working in departments not entered in the
League may nuike application to play with any one
of the teams, which will be approved under certain
restrictions.
Departmental League matches will be played
on Monday e\ening and Saturday afternoon. The
objective is a silver cu]) offered by the K. P. A. A.

COMMUNITY NIGHT ENTERTAINMENTS
The first of a series of Community Nights
given by the K. P. A. A. was held on Tuesday
evening, December 13th, in the Assembly Hall.
Between eight and nine hundred persons were
present. The program was opened with two
professional vaudeville acts. Following this, a
Harold Lloyd comedy of three reels was shown.
Then the hall was cleared and dancing enjoyed
until midnight. The first number on the dance
program was an old-fashioned Paul Jones, followed
by a square set, the balance of the program being
made up of waltzes, two-steps and fox-trots. A
number of those present took advantage of the
facilities provided and played pedro, five hundred
and pinochle on the .second floor of the building.
Prizes were awarded the winners.
The outlined plan for these Community Nights
gives promise of satisfactory results. In order
that everyone may have equal enjoyment, and to
avoid overcrowding the membership has been di\'id-
ed into divisions, and each group of members has
been allotted a certain night. A ticket admitting
two persons is issued to each member of the Asso-
ciation upon application, and showing of his mem-
bership card. Those working on shift work and
unable to be present on the date designated will be
provided with a special card, which will admit them
on any one of the nights they may be free.
Those who were not included in the invitation for
the first entertainment are a.sked to be patient, as
there will be a Community Night for everyone.
The Committee in charge has planned for your
enjoyment, and we trust that everyone will take
advantage of the opportunity and come.
Emulsion Coating Department extends its deepest
sj-mpathy to the family of the late T. J. Orman,
who died Saturday, December 3rd.
George Cannan, general foreman of the Plate
Department, is the proud daddy of a bright little
son. William Allen Cannan was born on October
30th. Congratulations, George!
NEEDS BUGLING INSTRUCTION
Shortly after the of the year the Kodak Park
first
Boy Scout Troop Number 50 will celebrate the
third anniversary of its organization. From every
viewpoint the Troop has been most successful, due
both to the interest taken by the members and the
efforts of the leaders. In the beginning member-
ship was limited to the immediate family of
Kodak employees. This was done to give our
own boys first chance. There is at present room
for a few more boys. Realizing the Troop to be a
factor for good and the need for Scout training in
this section, the charter has been declared open to
any one living near Kodak Park, >mtil such time
as the membership limit has been reached, when
the original restrictions will again he imposed.
At the i)rcscnt time the Troop is in need of an
instructor in bugling. This means but one-half
hour a week for a period of two to three months
7:00 to 7:.'50 each Tuesday evening and a call is
made for some ex-army or ex-navy man to train
.some of the boys in the work. H. H. Tozier,
Building No. 26 will be pleased to hear from anyone
who will volunteer to help.
18 THE KODAK
RECEIVE L.\RGE AWARDS
The November issue of the Kodak Park Sugges-
tion Bulletin informed us of some large awards for
suggestions adopted during the month of October.
A total of $1. ()().). 00 was paid for 74 suggestions.
This amount included two awards of $500.00 each,
one of $250.00, another of $100.00. and several
others of slightly lesser denominations.
U. .J. SCOTT
Winner of Large Suggestion .\ward
R. J.Scott of the Power Electrical Department,
and John C. Wegner of the Cine Slitting Department
were the fortunate persons to receive the $500.00
awards. Both of these suggestions showed marked
ingenuity and effected substantial savings, particu-
larly that of Mr. Scott's, who worked out a very
clever solution to a jjarticular problem.
The Suggestion System affords similar oppor-
tunity to every employee at Koflak Park, the only
necessary requisite being the ability to spot the
opportunity when it arises. Why not try your
hand at the Suggestion System?
RESTAURANT EMPLOYEES
HAVE PARTY
A very enjoyable party was held Ijy the employees
of theKodak Park Restaurant at the Knights of
Malta Hall, Saturday, November 19th. About
seventy-five persons were present, including the
wives, husbands and friends of the employees.
The affair was the outcome of the postponement
of the annual Summer Outing, which could not be
held for several reasons and the good time enjoyed
more than made up for the previous disappointment.
Fred Packard acted as toastmaster of the dinner
which was .served at 7 o'clock. The entertainment
which followed, was afforded by Patterson, well-
known black-faced artist, and the Amphion Quartet.
Heru-y Miller of the Engineering and Maintenance
Officeis the proud father of an 8-pound baby girl
born December .Srd. Congratulations, Henry!
ISIAGAZIXE
EMULSION COATING FIESTA
Three hundred and fifty employees of the Emul-
sion Coating Department attended their First
Annual Banquet held on Saturday, December 17th,
in the Recreation Building. Last winter an anniver-
sary dinner was given in honor of Fred B. VanAUan
and George Beedham upon their completion of
twenty-five years' continuous service with the
company, and the good time enjoyed by those who
attended resulted in a persistent demand for
another "get-together" this year.
Dinner was served at 7:30. During the meal
music was furnished by Pagan's orchestra, and
singing, under the leadership of William Thompson,
occupied its place between the courses.
A very enjoyal)le program of entertainment had
been prepared for the remainder of the evening.
The first number was the "Pathe News" for the
current week, after which "Black, the Man ^\^lO
Grows," entertained with his very unusual stvmts.
F. L. Holden in "An Evening on the Plantation,"
worked black face in an amusing monologue. A
professional vaudeville act from one of the local
theaters was also numbered among the entertainers.
"The Day Dolls," a brain child of our friend,
"Doc" Yates, was a surprise in every sense of the
word, and "Doc' has erected one more monument
to himself. "Filmland." a motion picture showing
the manufacture of Kodak Film, completed the
evening's program.
Everyone had a "mighty good time" and senti-
ment was unanimously in favor of another banquet
in IQ'-Zi. The Committee in charge consisted of
Fred B. VanAllan, Chairman, Lincoln Burrows,
Donald McMaster, "Dave'" Babcock, "Joe"
Burton, John Young, and James Lee. Present
at the affair as guests of the Emulsion Coating
Department were James H. Haste, A. F. Sulzer,
C. K. Flint, H. LeB. Grav, C. F. Hutchison, H. E.
Van Der Hoef, R. A. Weber, H. D. Haight, A.
E. Williams, P. C. Seel and F. H. Boyer.
WITH THE BOWLERS
A keen in all three of the
spirit of rivalry exists
Kodak Park Bowling Leagues. The members of
each team are trying to hide their determination to
win beneath a bit of friendly banter, but they go
into each match with a "we mean business" spirit.
Some of the teams have strengthened up a bit
during the past few weeks, which has made the
races even tighter than earlier indications prom-
ised. A most valuable addition to any team is
Jack Casey, who has joined his fellow bowlers in
the Film Department. In the K. P. A. A. League,
the Ponies are still a few points in the lead, and
the Steel Shed is having things its own way in the
Yard outfit.
CRABTREE TALKS TO CAMERA CLUB
The monthly dinner meeting of the Kodak Park
Camera Club was held on Wednesday, December
14th. John I. ( 'rabtree. of the Research Laboratory
gave an illustrated talk on "How to Alake
Snapshots."
At the January meeting officers will he elected
for the year 192'£. Early in February a campaign
will be launched to increase the membership to at
least 300.

HAWK-EYE
P. R.
TWO OX THE RIGHT
It is a simple matter to smile and perpetrate a
poor pun on ''Coach Roach's" title, but you can't
laugh off the fact that "Bill's" Hawk-Eye team had
the call in the first two games which they played
in the Kodak Basketball League.
They say that even "Bill" was mihliy surprised
when his tossers turned in a 16-13 win over the
husky Parkers on November !23d, but it was straight
basketball that won.
The dearth of figures in Captain Johnson'^
score column may indicate that he is slow in round-
ing into form, but he is just as fast as ever and
literally a tower of strength in the team-work.
We refuse to worry about him just yet.
Ingleby and Prentice, who played the forward
positions in the opening games, haven't hit their
stride either. Both of them, and especially "Chuck"
Prentice, have suffered from some terrible breaks.
They may be expected to settle down and overcome
the jinx before long.
All Hawk-Eye was agog the day after Thanks-
giving over Wilbur Woodams' rampage in the

Kodak Park game. He scored eight of Hawk-Eye's
sixteen points, all from a guard position, and was
all over the floor spilling the opposition's attacks.
He repeated his performance in the second game
that —
with Main Office caging four shots from
almost hopeless angles. And he had another
counter in the air when the bell rang to end the
fracas.
"Benny" Levine, his running mate, isn't exactly
a slouch either. Besides being an exceedingly bad
man to meet when one is trying to advance down
the court, he alternates with Woodams in slipping
down the floor and striking terror into his oppo-
nents. "Benny" looks as good as ever.
Wiedman and Van Lare are the only other men
who were played at the start of the season, and it is
too early to judge these two old stand-bys and the
rest of the squad accurately. It is exident, how-
ever, that the basketball outfit as a whole is "up and
at 'em" — —
and at them hard and with the support
which the men deserve, they should be able to finish
the schedule at the top of the ladder.

20 THE KODAK MAGAZINE
EKCO GIRLS IN KALEIDOSCOPE
They say that the undertakings for whose success
ne have the greatest fears usually turn out the best.
"\Miether that can be accepted as a rule of life
concerns us little, so long as our example turned out
the right way. Virginia Earl and "Billy" Wilson
nearly had conniptions during the days that immed-
iately preceded the Y. W. C. A. Kaleidoscope on
December 7th, and yet when it was all over, it was
freely admitted that the Hawk-Eye Ekco Club
girls had put on one of the very best stimts of all.
The program called it a "Song Medley." Fanny
McClellan opened the number when she appeared
in appropriate costume, to the tune of "Darling,
I am Growing Old." Fanny was somewhat mis-
cast, and the make-up artists had to wear out their
pencils to make her look the part. She carried a
frowsy member of the feline tribe, which soon put
the audience in good humor by its antics. Then
Eloise Earl danced in with what was claimed to be
"The Last Rose of Summer." That was, of coiuse,
quite an achievement, because December 7th is
exceedingly late in the summer. Eloise not only
looked very well, but danced likewise.
She was followed by Hilda Specht, dressed as a
boy and carrying "The Old Oaken Bucket" (that
is to say, a herring pail in disguise). Close upon
her heels "Yankee Doodle," in the person of Grace
Watson, rode to town on her beautiful wooden pony.
Needless to state she was a full-fledged "Macaroni,"
from her brown velvet trousers to the feather in her
hat. Then— (O Shades of the Midnight Frolic!)—
came Virginia P^arl in an abbreviated "Bubbles"
costume, dancing and tossing colored balloons to
the audience.
Mae Ferguson typified "School Days." She had
with her two well-known school girl attributes,
a bimdle of Vjooks and, what is usually more popular.
CHESTER COOLIGAN
Anastigmat Lens Department
a peppermint stick. Mae's was big enough to use
as a cane. Next winsome Hattie Batzing in a
ruffled dress, stepped shyly across the stage imper-
sonating the famous "Mary," with the well-known
little woolly lamb in her arms. "Billy" Wilson
followed as "Old Black Joe." Joe was old that
night, beyond a doubt, for "he" hobbled in very
distressingly with the aid of a cane. The costume
was most effective, albeit some of the snow-white
locks came loose from their moorings. Margaret
Kiernan made a hit when slie entered to the tune of
"Keep the Home Fires Burning." She was clad
in white and carried a service flag. It was left to
Ruth Pierce, however, to bring down the house
with "Over There.' ' She wore the uniform of an
army lieutenant.
That isn't saying, however, that the rest of the
Hawk-Eye program was an anti-climax. Olive
Kellett's "Wearing of the Green" was distinctly
refreshing. She wore a fluffy gown of appropriate
hue and danced a very acceptable Irish gig. Doris
Sanford again aroused the onlookers' patriotic
ardor as "The Rose of Xo Man's Land," her cos-
tume as a Red Cross nurse being very effective.
Anna Krenzer closed the performance as "Red
Wing." She had all the trappings of a big chief,
and executed a regular Indian dance to perfection.
Anna Kohler presided at the piano. She was
one of those who had worried about the outcome of
the affair, and its success was due in no small part
to her playing.
There was one more Hawk-Eyete present that
we know of. That was "Al" Hardies, who tootled
most engagingly on his saxophone for the dancing
that followed. Leave it to "Al" to step in where
ordinarv males fear to tread.

ANOTHER TWENTY-FIVE YEAR

MAN
Harry Dulmage of the Finished Stock Depart-
ment began his career with the Kodak Company
on June 9, 1896, when Camera Works was but one
small building. Harry was employed at that plant
for seventeen years, at the end of which time he
moved with the Repair Department to the Main
Office.
In March, 1917, he was transferred to the Finished
DWIGHT PAUL Stock Department, which was supervised by W. J.
with his gun and "'one buck' German, and, since that time, has had charge of the
Finished Part Stock.

The many friends of William Colburn Seward,

Jr. of the Billing Department, learned with pleasure
that he is to accept a new position in the Rochester
office of the Safe-Cabinet Company. We all regret
his leaving, but wish him continued success.

She of the smiles and bright-colored raiment,

Leora Younghans of the Billing Department, is
back with us again after an absence of three weeks
on account of illness. Leora says she is glad to be
back, too.

Thirty-two girls of the Accounting Department

enjoyed a "get-together" on December 7th in the
Dining Room. The girls said they enjoyed the
good feed as well as the dancing that followed.

The Bookkeeping Department received an open

letter from Howiird Bushcll stating that he arrived
safely in England, and that his health is about the
same. We hope for a better report in his next letter.

Harry Danziger, formerly of the London Ship-

ping, who left the company in October, is now
located in Los .Vngeles, wliere he is engaged in
raising Pomeranian dogs. His friends in the Ship-
ping Department have been remembered with IIAUKV DLl.M.VC.E

Alice Burns of the Testing and Packing Depart-
ment was married on Thanksgiving Day to Edward
Hoffman of Warsaw, New York. Lillian Allen
of the Tabulating Department was one of the bride's
attendants, and Bessie Burns, sister of the bride,
played the wedding march. Mrs. Hoffman entered
the employ of the Fastman Kodak Company in
July, 1919. Her many friends in the Testing and
Packing Department extend best wishes for her
happiness.

"POP" PASSES ANOTHER MILESTONE
Saturday, December 3rd, W. H. ("Pop") Durfee,
Foreman of the Testing and Packing Department,
was pleasantly reminded of his birthday, which
occurred this year on Sunday. He was presented
with a huge bouquet of choice chrysanthemums and
ferns by the employees of the Department, whose
best wishes and congratulations accompanied the
gift.

Ralph Jones of the Freight Shipping Department
was married on November 23rd to Doris Dunham.
Congratulations, Ralph.
FORTY OF THE BILLING
Forty members of the Billing Department
attended a Thanksgiving Social in the Girls Rest
Room.
While dancing to the .strains of Otto's six-piece
orchestra occupied a large part of the ev'ening, games
were also played.
The committee in charge consisted of Martha
Schultheiss, Anna Brady and Grover Lloyd.
GIRLS CHALLENGE ALL COMERS
The Kodak Office Girls basketball team has been
putting in some hard practice and will be in form
to meet all comers after the first of the year. Any
additional players who wish to try out for the team
are requested to report for practice at the Brick
Church Institute on Monday evenings at 6:00.
ELM CHIPS
Yes — the poor old maple pins at Elm Hall
are still being racked and set up for their
punishment every Thursday night, for noth-
ing being spared to make the strike.'! come
is
more frequently. Individual averages are
now receiving keen attention in this game of
" plough-into-'em-and-leave-three-up, " but
it's not becau.se they fall more easily. They
might, but they don't. So, here's the real
—
reason every one is trying to emulate the
League's President, "Norm" Ferris, who
leads the procession with the enviable average
of 186.
The Girls' Bowling League is also "at
home" every Thursday evening at Elm Hall,
and "Jess" Natt, Secretary, is authority for
the statement that anyone who hasn't seen
the weekly matches has missed a lot. The
girls have it all over the men for enthusiasm
and the rivalry between the teams is so keen
that one would think a World's Series was
in progress.
Dolefully we concede that the race for the
top notch in the men's circuit is indeed lack-
ing in real fight. The preponderancy of a
certain well-known team, which leads its
nearest rival by an ocean-wide margin, ac-
counts for this seeming indifference on the
part of the other teams. But, a glorious
battle is raging among the Advertising, Sales,
Service, and Bookkeeping Departments for
second honors. Possible comers-up, too, in
this division, are the Industrial Relations
and Stock Department teams. For the
present we'll have to let the letter "x" reore-
sent the other five teams, for their strength
is indeed an unknown quantity.
In the Girls' League the Service team
leads so far, and the eighth floor girls are
showing all kinds of "pep." The Finishers
and the flag-holding Sales team follow in
order, with only a game or two separating
them. All the teams, however, are showing
increased strength, and it's not going to be a
runaway race for anyone. If you want to
see some fancy bowling, and a lot of good
sportswomen, be sure to take in these matches.
If you've ever tried it, you know there's
great sport in this game of bowling. There's
real fun, too, just in watching your depart-
ment team take two or three from "Jimmie's"
or "Lena's" squad. Step into the Elm any
Thursday night and root for your favorites.
And, if you're completely neutral, better
cheer for the Billing Department aggrega-
tion, which, at the present writing, is leading
the League (upside down).

WHAT WOULD HAPPEN ?
in If the Eastman Kodak Company suddenly cut
off all communication with the business world?
If we
talked with only the people with whom we
transact necessary business.'
If we read no magazines, advertisements or trade
papers.'
If we received no callers, interviewed no sales-
men, and ignored competitors?
If our executives attended no trade conventions,
belonged to no business clubs, associated with no
one in a business way, but depended entirely upon
themselves for development?
What Would Happen?
No organization could exist under such narrowing
conditions. Present-day business is such that its
development comes largely from "ideas" secured
from conventions, business publications, competi-
tors, salesmen, demonstrators, and workers. No
business can successfully carry on without these
influences.

extend congratulations to Earl, who is employed

Seventy-five thousand cubic feet per minute.
Yes, this is the average anioimt of purified air
that is sent througli ventilating pipes into Build-
ings 1 and "2. (This particular system operates
only in these two buildings, as Buildings 3. 4 and 9
are heated by direct steam radiation.) A huge duct
serves as a flue to draw the air down to the engine
—
room situated in the basement. A "tempering"
coil twelve feet square, is the first process through
which the air passes. This coil, so to speak, takes
the "raw edge" from the atmosphere, before it
imdergoes the treatment. If it were possible to
see air — although, of course, we can see hea^y
impurities such as smoke and certain chemical
—
fumes the "laundry" would reveal hundreds of
feet of oxjgen and nitrogen per minute passing
through one hundred and twenty-three spray
nozzles, to emerge thoroughly washed from all
foreign substances. The purifying process is
clearly demonstrated by the gritty condition of the
water as it falls from the spray nozzles into the
waste tank. A seven and one-half horse-power
Air chamber or generator connected with the lower system
in the Buffing Room.
The air is drawn into the chamber by
means of a vacuum fan, and, the impurities dropping into the
well, the air is washed, forced back through return pipes, and
thus provides a strong circulation of fresh air.
S. THORPE
BUT—
four-inch rotary pump supplies the water for the
nozzles.
Xow the air is heated. Upon
passing the sprays,
it travels through a series of slats or
eliminators
which separate the water from the air. It next
passes through a heating coil, and right here is the
secret of the degrees of heat which allow us to
work in comfort on the bleakest day of winter.
The outside temperature governs the amount of
heat which is forced into the coil, through steam
pressure. It is obvious that the farther heat travels
the cooler it becomes. So. accordingly, these coils
heat the air to appro.ximately one hundred and
fifty degrees.
A Skinner engine which operates a rotating fan
having a circumference of twenty-four feet drives
the washed and heated air to its various outlets in
the building.
Accurate records of temperatures throughout the
plant are compared with the registration of heat as
shown on the heating coils, and by adjustment of
steam pressure we have an even degree of heat,
with the additional advantage of knowing that we
are breathing purified and fresh air.

to department outings and gatherings, and the
Liederkranz rang with merriment during their
bowling tournament. The occasion was bright-
ened by a '"free limch" counter, loaded with every
morsel the appetites of bowlers could wish for.
After the regular game an endurance contest was
arranged between Barney Rotollo and William
Miller. Barney claims the reason he won was on
accoimt of being in the right "frame" of mind, and
having the right "spirits"!
Whether it was because of this game, we know
not. but it certainly looks suspicious, for a few

their husbands to the Forester's Temple, where

was considered a better time to hold an election of
officers, so, within the next week or so each foreman
will receive full particulars.

A PERSONAL LETTER TO YOU
Dear Fellow Workman:
I have a special message for you. On or around

is opening at the Chamber of Commerce, and
the time to enroll is iioir'.
The speakers on industrial and public
finest
safety have been secured by the National Safety
Council for the thirteen lectiu-es, which are made
interesting by the frequent use of motion pictures.
The student attending ten of these lectures is
entitled to graduate with full honors, and is given
a diploma to tliat effect.
Now, boys, what do you say.' Are you interested
in learning how you can become more valuable to
yourself, to those that are dear to you, and to the
whole communitv.' The good you will receive
from this extra knowledge will more than repay
for the tinae you spend with us. I want to see the
good old Camera Works leading the safety squad,
and I have great hopes of three hundred and fifty
enrollments from the Eastman Kodak Company.
Ask "Dick" Jennings or myself to give you some
idea of the })cnefits that can be derived from this
opportunity. Both of us are ready to write your
name to the best insurance in the world that of —

nal shooting of "Wib" Woodams, who
caged them overhand and underhand,
from corner or mid-court, with ecjual ease,
gave the Hawks a liard-earned 16-13
decision.
On December 7th, Kodak Park handed
Camera Works the httle end of an 18 to 11
mark, though finding it necessary to call
in "Tip-off Tommy" Thompson
subdue the Camera crew. Hawk-Eye set
a fast pace to trim Kodak Office, 15 to 9,
with Woodams again cast in the role of
chief scorer.
A week's lay-off intervened, because of
the Annual Exhibit of the Kodak Park
Fur and Feather Club, which monopolized
the Assembly Hall. The court schedule
got under way again on December 14th.
This night saw the mantle of "Elijah"

won from Camera Works, 25 to 10, in the
most one-sided game played to date.
The Hawks displayed finished team-work
and accurate shooting, while the State
Street ers seemed unable to get started.
The nightcap })etween Kodak Park and
the Office provided one of those old-
fashioned knock - down - and - drag - out
rough-and-tumbles, with the rival teams
displaying an enthusiasm which would
make a jungle tiger look like a fireside
tom-cat. The regular session ended in a
deadlock at twelve-all, and five minutes
extra were needed before the Parkers
corralled the decision 16 to 13.
Although Hawk-Eye is setting the pace
just at present, the season is
fancy, and all four of the contenders
have a good chance for the flag.
These Wednesday night parties are
furnishing the high lights of the Kodak
sport world this winter. The spirit of the
different plants in getting together on a
co-operative basis for a League of this
kind is highly commendable, and the
clean brand of high class basketball played
by most of the quint stars is a rare treat
to lovers of friendly athletic competition.

ARE YOU BUDGETING ?

"The best method of systematic saving is the planning and carrying out of a personal or
family budget system. With the budget you can plan your income intelligently, and, at the
end of each month and year, know exactly where you stand and can put aside a definite amount
to be saved for some specific purpose.
"Real saving means regularly putting aside a definite amount to meet some of the bigger
needs; not the saving for a few weeks or months, and then spending the money for something
you could have done without."

distribution, is the history of Kodak.
In the United States our distribution
is highly complete, and it woidd be pretty
difficult to locate a town where the sign
"Kodaks" is not somewhere in evidence.
Early in our history a reputation for
quality and uniformity was established,
and as our distribution grew, we had to
plan to maintain this good will. Our
sensitized products, film, paper and plates,
require special care in handling and
stocking in order that they may reach
the consumer in perfect condition. For
this and other good reasons, we do not
supply the trade through jobbing houses,
but ship direct to the dealer.
To facilitate distribution in the large
business centers, and to enable our cus-
tomers at points distant from Rochester
to receive our goods speedily, we have
housing these branches and each one is
specially adapted to meet our needs.
(See page 2)
At each of these points a full stock of
our products, except motion picture
film, and some professional apparatus, is
carried so that the trade in their terri-
tories can be promptly supplied.
We do not occupy the entire building
in New York City, but other floors will
be available when our needs demand.
The Chicago building also houses our
card mount and album factory ^Taprell, —
—
Loomis & Company but the San Fran-
cisco Building is used exclusively by our
branch.
Wehave close to seventeen thousand
fivehundred dealers in the United States
handling our products; so you can see
that our three branches play an important
part in our plan of distribution.

your estimate of the value of the j^roperty.
A good many lots are sold under what
is called a land contract, where you pay a
few dollars down and a dollar or more per
week, but do not get a deed until all the
payments have been made. This is
buying a lot on the installment plan
just as you can buy furniture or clothing.
These contracts are drawn to favor the
seller in every possible way, and often
give him the right to declare the contract
at an end and keej) the lot and the money

street that would have been far more
satisfactory in the long run.
Whatever you do, do not build upon
any property before you receive a deed
for it. You may not, at the time of
purchase, be able to pay in full for your
lot or lots. In such cases the only safe
way to do is to take a deed for the
l^roperty, and give a mortgage to secure
the unpaid balance. The title is then
\'ested in you and your equity in the
l^roperty can be definitely ascertained.
If you should build on property the
title to which has not been vested in you
by a deed, and fall down on your pay-
ments, you would stand a good chance of
losing both the land and the house. In
any event, it would entail a lawsuit if
you sought to recover anything for the
improvements you had made.
When you purchase a piece of property
do not accept the word of the seller, or
the word of anyone else, that the title is
perfect. Demand a certified abstract
of brought down to the date of
title
the deed to you. Even then do not pay
over the purchase price until you have
the written opinion of an expert real
estate laA\yer.
The abstract of title, which is the his-
tory of all deeds, mortgages, and other
transactions regarding the property for
at least forty years back, and down toyour
deed, should be furnished you by the
seller without cost. The attorney will
charge you a fee for examining the title
as shown by the abstract and for his
written opinion, but it will be well worth
the money as a safeguard.
^^'hatc^•er you do, do not commence
l)uilding on property unless you have a
deed to it. If you contemplate buying
or building, and are a bit inicertain as to
the best course to ])ursue, the Industrial

YOUR EYES
HOW
hard
much would you
your
cash for
take in good
eyes?
Such a query is nonsense, because all
the money that could be shoveled into a
box car would not influence you to part
with them.
This being so, then why is it that so
many people take needless chances with
their eyes, put off wearing glasses until
the last possible moment, and then
are content with selecting a pair from a
tray in a ten cent store, or with being
fitted by some one whose qualifications
for such work are an entirely unknown
quantity.
In seeking the proper person to examine
your eyes for glasses our unqualified
advice is that you consult an oculist of
established reputation.
Many people confound the terras
"oculist," "optician,"and "optometrist"
and think that they all mean the same
thing, and that any one of the three is
equally competent to prescribe for and fit
glasses to correct imperfect vision.
Here are the facts so that you may
decide for yourself: the oculist is a grad-
uate of a medical college in good standing,
where his four years' course in the study
of medicine and surgery has given him
his M. D. degree. In addition to his
regular training of four years to become
a physician, he has had to spend two or
more years in the special study of the
eye and its diseases. With this training
he is able not only to examine properly,
or refract, your eyes for glasses, but in
addition to determine just why you need
glasses; he is often able to locate some
other bodily ailment which is the real
cause of the defect in vision and which
can be cured or greatly remedied, and
so do away with the necessity for glasses
at a later period. This is particularly
true with children. The oculist does
not make nor supply glasses, he merely
indicates what is needed, leaving it to
the optician to manufacture from his
prescription what it calls for and to
adjust the glasses properly to the eyes
of the patient.
glasses, the oculist
If you do not need
will so inform you,
as he has no personal interest in supplying
them.
Strictly speaking the the field of
optician, and the optometrist,the lies in
making of the lenses called for in the
oculist's prescription, and in seeing that
the frames in which they are placed are
properly adjusted.
Practicallyall opticians and optome-
trists will measure eyes for glasses, and
in cases where no indirect physical causes
exist, are able to afford satisfaction.
is hardly to be expected that they
It
can, without the medical training and
experience of the oculist, detect unusual
conditions, and so prescribe intelligently.
It is their business to sell glasses.
It is no more than fair to state, however,
that the reputable optician and optome-
trist will, when he finds any unusual
condition, advise the patient to consult
an oculist before proceeding farther.
The danger lies in the fact that the patient
may not have happened into the office
of one so upright and honorable.
Your eyes are one of your most valuable
assets. You need expert assistance to
determine what is best for your ej^es,
and what can be done to strengthen them
and thus to prolong their and your useful-
ness.
A very common cause of headache is
eye strain, and the treatment for it in
—
most cases is glasses. A very slight
defect in sight will in some individuals
cause severe headache with other disturb-
ances of the general system. One may
see perfectly and yet be straining to do
so to such an extent that headaches
appear. Headaches from the eyes are
usually in front over the eyes or in the
back of the head, and are worse after
using the eyes. Other signs of eye
strain are redness, burning, watering,
blurring, and sleepiness. To correct such
a condition requires special skill and
training. Don't trust your eyes to any
one but a first-class eve doctor.

A MOVIE TRIP THROUGH FILMLAND
The superintendents, foremen, and employees'
representatives were given a rare treat last month
by the management of the Camera Works. To
attempt to say which was the best feature of the
evening would be an impossible feat. The dinner
was par excellence, Mr. Robertson and Mr. Stuber
gave us tabloid talks, Frank O'Brien said a cheery
word or two, "Charlie" Rogers gave us a brand new
system for curing the blues, Kodak Park contributed
George Englehart's famous octette of singers, and
Meinhard's trio supplied orchestral music. Add
to all this a wonderful three-reel "movie," and you
get an outline of the enjoyable evening made
possible by the combination.
A MATTER OF CIVIC PRIDE
We are proud to state that our percentage of
employees who are imable to speak or read English
is so very small that the figure is hardly worth
mentioning. We are, also, practically an "All-
American" organization as regards citizenship,
and certainly a one-hundred per cent factory in
American ideals and sentiment. In spite of the
fact that our personnel is composed of native sons
and daughters of twenty-eight countries, the
reputation which everyone of us earned during the
"drives" of Liberty bonds. Thrift Stamps and War
Chests, proves that our sympathies lie with "Uncle
Sam."
This statement, however, does not in any way
detract from the splendid work which the Coimcil
for Better Citizenship is doing among the foreign-
born people of Rochester. Not only has this
Council been instrumental in preparing applicants
for citizenship, but it now intends to educate the
illiterate citizen of foreign birth. It is not always
the fault of the individual that his or her knowledge
of the English language is somewhat limited;
more often, it is the result of environment, and the
lack of sufficient educational centers to take care of
this particular phase of Americanization.
A recent survey in tliis city disclosed the fact
that about five thousand foreign-born adults in
Rochester are unable to speak or write English.
Of these, about two thousand are at the present
time atten<ling nigiit school, factory, or home
groups. The object of the Covmcil, working imder
the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce, is to
induce the remaining three thousand to register
in these classes.
The educational program of our city is a source of
civic and state pride. There is really no excuse for

We cannot resist telling our readers a little about
the "movie." At great cost, the company has
portrayed the making of film from the raw
materials to the finished product. The subject
is a mighty interesting one in itself, but the thought
that struck us was the perfection of photography,
largelymade possible by the quality of the film.
All the art of the science of photography was

THE RIGHT IVIAN IX THE RIGHT PLACE
Camera Works employees are to be congratulated
on re-electing Herbert S. Rogers to represent them
on the Board of the Kodak Employees Association.
Three men were nominated by the executive
committee of the Emplov"ees Representatives
Herbert Rogers, Lawrence Welch, and Frank
Holdredge. Welch and Holdredge withdrew, thus
leaving no contestants against Rogers.
There is probably no man better qualified to
fill this important position of Director than "Herb."
After such competent representation as he has given
)is for two consecutive years, there is no question
that he is an ideal man for the job.
INCOME TAX RETI-RXS
The Industrial Relations Department is prepared
to assist employees in filling out Federal and State
income tax forms. Please make arrangements
with your foreman, as to when you can best be
spared from the department.
We will endeavor to prevent delay as far as
possible. The licst way to get prompt ser%-ice is
to phone for an appointment.

available figures relating to income, expenditures,

ONE HUNDRED FORTY-SIX SAFETY BOOSTERS

When it comes to promoting "Safety First,"
the Camera Works management and employees
are heart and soul in favor of this vital phase of
modern industry. Years ago, httle thought was
given to the value of human hves, and accidents
were accepted as inevitable. Now, however, we
know that about four-fifths of them are avoidable,
and, just as we were taught in our infant days that
two and two make four, so are we instructed today
that "Safety First" means the conservation of sound
limbs, good health, and a reasonable assurance of
immunity from sudden death.
Almost every city and town has, as part of its
"Live a Little Longer" program, group lectures and
—
discussions on safety. Our city always pro-
—
gressive has a splendid group of people, the Cham-
ber of Commerce, fostering the idea of a school
for safe practices, especially in industry. Weare
proud to state that 146 men and women from our
—
own factory have enrolled and it is not too late
for others to enroll even now. Those students
who attend ten lessons of the thirteen that are given
will receive a diploma issued under authority from
the National Safety Council.
Below we give the names and departments of
the students for 1922, as a record of the employees
who are practical in their method of believing and
practicing safety:

and girls who attended.
The girls in the Bellows Department were not
really surprised to notice a diamond sparkling on
the third finger of Belle Ribner's hand, especially
since Belle had so eagerly looked forward to a
special visit from a special friend. They are now
hoping to hear further news, and promise to cele-

Election of Cameko offi'>ers for the year 1922

The incoming officers are hereby congratulated
and the Club is more than pleased with the results
of the election. The new directorate has already
laid out a program, which gives promise of one of
the most interesting vears since the formation of
the Club.
James Shaffer, who oversees the workings of the
Milling Department, has passed the word along
that Harry Briggs is the best tool-crib man in his
department. By the May, we remember now that
Harry is the only man in the Milling tool-crib;
so, the cigars are on us.
James Noble, Superintendent of the Bellows
Department, has been dangerously ill for some
weeks, suffering from typhoid fever and neuremia.
Mr. Noble is a very popular man, and everyone
wishes him a speedy recovery.

The group is a family gatliering of the most
ardent poultry fanciers of the Breeders Association

FOREMEN STAGE CHRISTMAS PARTY
In an atmosphere of jazz music, fantastic colored
hats and hoHday decorations, the foremen sat down
to a turkey dinner on the evening of December 22.
Red and green crepe, serpentine, and a regular
Christmas tree gave the holiday note to their
second annual Christmas party.
The committees had planned to start things at a
—
high pitch and to keep them there and they
succeeded. Between the courses, and while the
orchestra was not playing, Frank Newman led the
singing of the old favorites, or the double quartette
warbled a plaintive ditty, or a trick cigar exploded
under someone's nose. There was other excite-
ment, too, as for instance, when Mr. O'Neill, who
had been impressed at the last minute as toastmas-
ter, produced some timely and interesting telegrams
from Clinton N. Howard and the keeper of Eugene
Easterly's farm.
To everyone's surprise Mr. O'Neill then
announced that he was only the temporary toast-
master, and that the remainder of the party would
be conducted by Purchasing Agent Roach.
Spencer Hord. editor of the Kodak Magazine,
was the principal speaker, as he had been the year
previous. He said that he had been promised dire
punishment in the event that he said anything
serious, and apparently the threat had its effect,
for the attitude of the audience indicated that
he did not once approach the danger point. To
say the least, Mr. Hord upheld his reputation as a
story teller; in fact, he added a few new laurels
with some of his side-splitters. The foremen are
anxious to have him know tliat they greatly appre-
and his company for the evening.
ciate his talk
After Mr. Hord came more selections by the
double quartette, which was composed of Louis
Richter, Sydney Clarke, Joseph Engel, John Vass,
Arthur Rapp. William Eyer. Robert Meinhard,
and Frank Fink, the leader. The orchestra also
put in some hard work to aid in settling the "turk"
comfortably. Then "Bill" Eyer was called upon
for some of his readings, and absolutely outdid
himself.
Toastmaster Roach now devoted himself to
distributing presents to the foremen, calling upon
each recipient for some sort of acknowledgment.
This brought forth a diversity of musical and narra-
tive talent such as had never before been displayed
within our walls. There were stories galore. Then
Frank Newman sang and "Bill" recited again — special Monroe county turkey.
and then there were more stories.
The recital was not yet over when a two-hundred-
pound policeman, accompanied by an internal
revenue thrust his head inside the door to
officer,
announce that he had a warrant for the arrest of
Robert S. Guilford. It seemed that our General
Anastigmat Foreman was accused of violating the
Eighteenth Amendment and, in spite of the expostu-
lations of Mr. Higgins, Mr. Phillips and Mr.
O'Neill, hewas led from the room. However, he
re-entered unexpectedly and announced that the
whole affair had been "put up" on him.
The committees were made up as follows: Finance,
Frank Fink, chairman; George Diehl, William
Dean and James Bohan. Stimts and Entertainment:
George Kosel, chairman; Frank Newman, James
Watts. Frank Quetchenback, Robert Meinhard,
Eugene Easterly, William Roach, Howard Werner,

GIRLS' VALENTINE PARTY
The Hawk-Eye Girls' Frolic will take the form
of a Valentine party this year, to be heldon Febru-
ary 15 in the plant diningroom, or thereabouts.
It takes a lot of space for a himdred girls to frohc
properly, and the party of the fifteenth will proba-
bly boil over into the corridors and every other
bit of adjacent territory.
The general committee consists of Elvira Ladwig,
Dorothy Morse, Marie Leimberger, Inez Prentice,
Lyda Ladwig, Lucy Tate, Clara Smith, Pauline
Leimberger and "Billy" Wilson. The program will
probably include a stunt by each department, be-
sides a new line of costumes, food, dancing, and
general fun. The advantages of holding the frolic
at the plant are undoubted, and provided the girls
supply the amoimt of "pep" usually shown at their
parties, this year's event should eclipse its two
predecessors.
SHOOT!
Another new Hawk-Eye sport was inaugurated
on the day before Christmas, when a party of men
sallied forth to the Flower City Gun Club's traps
to test their prowess with the double-barreled
kickers. As there was only one day left to do the
Christmas shopping, the attendance at the shoot
was not large, but the excellence of some of the
shooting made up for the small numbers.
Fred .\lbers won first place, as well as the extra
"Bill" Klos and
Julius Pehta were tied at only one bird less than
Fred's score. "Bill" won the deciding toss, while
Julius contented himself with a duck. "Duke"

for third, Craib winning a chicken after a toss-up.

contributed a pleasing dance to the entertainment.
Mrs. Welch was, as usual, kept busy telling fortimes.
In the meantime the piano was being overworked
by some of the girls, and when the regular program
had been completed everybody joined in singing and
dancing for the balance of the evening.
Hilda Specht, of the Payroll Department, has
announced her engagement to Harold Murphy.
We offer our congratulations to Mr. Mm-phy and
our best wishes to both.
Esther Meyers has finally confided to us that she
is engaged to be married to '"Jack" Slagenhauf.
We wish Esther and "Jack" the best of luck. As for
the Drafting Department, where Esther works,
it is now ready to go into mourning at any time.
IXGLEBY-SCHERER
Elmore A. Ingleby, our famous athlete from the
Cost Department, and Florence Scherer were mar-
ried on December 31. We don't know how it
was for the lady, but it was all very sudden for us.
This was probably due to the fact that "Ing" tried
to "beat" the income tax collector by squeezing
the event into the old year. However, there was
time for his multitudinous friends to remember
him with a gift, which he has asked us to acknowl-
edge for him.
may have been just as well in the case of the League
to leave the decision up in the air, since the schedule
was not completed.
"Bill" Roach simply chortles when someone
calls his team a gallery of antiques. Why should he
worry about his old men so long as they can be
called upon at any time to pull a game out of the
fire.* Hawk-Eye lost its only game, the second one
with Kodak Park by a score that was decisive
enough at the end, but which required an extra
period. Outside of that game, the sailing was
fairly smooth, albeit the Camera Works nearly
tripped us up in the last League game.
ENTER SANTA CLAUS
The Cleaning and Inspecting Department was
first in line for the December holiday festivities, its
Christmas party being celebrated on December 21
in the girls' dining room. Supper was served at six
o'clock, and it was of a quality and profuseness that
would be hard to duplicate.
Mr. Newman opened the after-dinner entertain-
ment with a series of original songs, accompanied
by Lyda Ladwig at the piano. Then came a
recitation by Daisy Shoemaker, and a piano solo by
Loretta Welch. Anna Enders with a vocal solo
held up her end of the program. Margaret Duske's
contribution was a series of impersonations por-
traying "Friday Afternoon at School." Pauline
Leimberger completed the program with a vocal
selection. To close the evening the girls sang popu-
lar songs and danced.
The party was the first of its kind undertaken by
the girls of the department in some time, and its
outcome was worthy of all the planning and work
bestowed upon its preparation.
^Margaret Duske acted as chairman for the whole
affair,assisted by Loretta Welch, Anna Enders,
Loretta Ereth, Helen Sullivan, Lyda Ladwig, Mil-
dred Zachnian, Deltha Campbell, Mrs. Owens,
MavTue Buckley, Elvira Ladwig and Pauline Leim-
berger.
Among the Christmas gifts in the Cleaning and
Inspecting Department was a diamond received by
Lillian Karweick from Charles Deissenger. We
extend our best wishes.
Mr. and Mrs. Eugene L. Crossett of Holley,
New York, announce the engagement of their

We are sorry to report the death of Mrs. M. A.

CHEMICAL SOCIETY HOLDS RECORD CHRISTIMAS PARTY
Some dinner! signed nearly 300 chemists, who,
with wives and friends, made the largest number
which the Rochester section of the American
Chemical Society had ever entertained outside of
that never-to-be-forgotten snring meeting.
To have tlie president of the largest scientific
society in the world speak before a section twice
in the same year is a noteworthy record. Dr.
Edgar E. Smith, who has again been elected presi-
dent of the American Chemical Society, admitted
that he liad begim to feel at home, when speaking
before the Rochester section. Dr. Smith was
introduced by Dr. Rush Rhees, president of the
University of Rochester. Perhans it was because
of the long friendship between these two great
educators that Dr. Rhees showed such warmth in
his introduction. At any rate, the applause that
greeted the "Father of American Chemists" was
proof positive of his great popularity.
Although Dr. Smith spoke on the topic of "Some
of Our Early American Organic Chemists," he so
spiced the topic with bits from his own personal
experience, and humorous situations that the subject
became vivid to his least technical listener.
FOREMEN ENTERTAIN AT ANNUAL
Truly, there nothing which creates that perfect
is
spirit of good fellowship like a real dinner, well
cooked and well served, such as was enjoyed by over
550 Kodak Park foremen, their wives and friends on
the occasion of the Third Annual Ladies' Party
given on Thursday evening, January 12, in the
Recreation Building. The dinner was excellent,
and a word of congratulation to Fred Grastorf is
surely not amiss. During the meal "Sam" Parry,
leading the singing, inserted much "pep" in the
gathering, while Taylor's orchestra entertained
withmany fine selections.
The party then adjourned to the Assembly Hall,
where the entertainment was given. First of all
the "movies" of the Cobourg boat trip held last
August, were shown, following which the Rochester
Operatic Quartet rendered several selections.
The Foremen's Club "None-Such" Minstrels,
featuring Charles Schlansker as interlocutor and
James Hart and "Art" Williams as end men, came
next, making the usual "hit." Solos were sung by
James A. Hart, "Ben" McMillan, "Art" Williams,
Ralph J. Smith, George Englehardt and a special
number by George Frank and the Octette. The
absence of Ferre MarzlufI was keenly felt and
regretted. The novelty fox trot by "Jim" Hart
and Susan LaDine came as a complete surprise.

In the absence of Dr. H. T. Clarke, chairman of
the Rochester section, Mr. O. I. Chorman, vice-
chairman, took charge of the meeting. Mr.
Chorman called for a rising vote of appreciation for
Dr. Smith's address. A wave of people rising, and a
surge of prolonged plaudits attested the popularity
of the evening's speaker.
A good old-fashioned "Paul Jones," directed by
Mr. Banker, broke up what little formality there
was, and paved the way for two hours of waltzes,
fox trots, and one-steps to the soothing strains of
George Willis's orchestra.
Dean and Mrs. WTiipple, of the new medical
college, and J. H. Haste, manager of Kodak Park,
were among those present.
The efforts of Arthur E. Williams, working with
E. M. Billings, secretary of the Rochester section,
in arranging the details, are greatly appreciated.
A vote of thanks was given Fred Grastorf and his
loyal corps of assistants for their efficient manage-
ment the gustative portion of the evening's
of
entertainment.

ing Susan.
"Jim" Hart and "Art" Williams as "The Two

and dispensed many clever jokes in connection with
happenings and individuals familiar to all. The
dancing of Clara Luce, which completed the
entertainment program, was of a finished character
and hugely enjoyed. The last hour was devoted
to dancing, the program consisting of several
"old fashioned" numbers.
The splendid support given the Committee by
the members of the organization is appreciated.
This annual event is one of the biggest things on the
Club's program, and every effort is expended to live
up to the reputation established in the past.
The Committee in charge consisted of Thomas
Frost, chairman, Charles Schlansker, Arthur T.
("Jerry") Welles, Robert A. Weber, James A. Hart,
and George Gray, assisted by the officers of the
Club.
The girls of the Black Paper Department heartily
enjoyed a noon-hour banquet held on December 23.
The table was decorated with Santa Claus place
cards and a basket of sweetheart roses for a center
piece, the latter being a Christmas donation.

REEL EMPLOYEE CELEBRATES

T\^TA'TY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY'
William Blowers, of the Reel Manufacturing
Department, began work with the Eastman Kodak
Company on February 3, 1897. He was put to
work blanking out spool ends, which were then
made of brass. At that time, it required the
combined efforts of himself and four other operators
to blank and perfect a spool end. Twenty-five
years ago these five operators could complete about
forty thousand ends per day, while today "Bill"
alone, with the aid of modern machines, will blank
and complete many times that number.

FILM EMPLOYEES HAVE BIG TIME
Speaking of good times, we will have to go a long
way to find anything to surpass the Community
Night entertainment given by the K. P. A. A. for
the employees of the Finished Film Department on
Friday evening, January G. By the way, this
Community Night idea is a corking good stunt.
The odds are all in favor of the member. You
don't Jiave to buy any tickets; each member is
presented with one good for himself or herself,
and wife, "luibby," sweetheart, or one of the kids.
Then, you saunter down to the Assembly Hall,
—
and are shown to a seat first come, first served.
You look around and see "Mamie" and her "beau,"
"Jennie" and her girl chum, "Joe" and his mother,
and everyone else from your department, and you
have such an "at home" feeling.
One thousand persons were at the Finished Film
entertainment. The first number on the program
was a dance by little Eleanor Ford, sister of Anna
Ford of the Spooling Department. John Leckinger,
of the Sheet Film, sang popular songs, and Clara
Luce, of the Rewinding Department, assisted by
Thomas Julian, demonstrated a novelty fox trot.
IMPROVEMENTS IN ASSEMBLY
No doubt you have noticed the changes recently
made in the Assembly Hall —
the erection of the
mammoth stage at the west end with footlights,
drop curtain and everything else found in a regular
theater, the new motion picture screen, re-location of
the basketball court and motion picture booth,
re-arrangement of lights, painting, etc., and won-
dered how it all came about.
The need of a stage has long been realized, but,
due to the cost of construction, it had never been
undertaken. Upon the appointment of "Art"
Williams as manager of Recreational and Athletic
Activities, A. Lee MacFarland, long recognized as
one of the hardest workers of the Association, was
called into consultation, with the result that it was
put over, together with all the other improvements.
"Mac" is the one who did it^ along with a crowd
of E. & AL workers. The work was done on the
men's own time, evenings and Saturday afternoons,
without any financial compensation whatsoever.
It is this spirit wliicli will develop the Association
to the high ])lane to which we aspire. This one
thing, the giving by a few members of their time
and good will, for the good of their friends, is a noble
gift, and our appreciation cannot be measiu-ed in
words.

These numbers may be classed as amateur talent,
but they were mighty good, and the Film Depart-
ment has every reason to be proud. Three profes-
sional acts followed, which also made a big hit.
—
Then there was the "movie" "The Fly Cop" —
a real comedy, which gave everyone a lot of laughs,
and "cinched" the show.
About two minutes were needed to clear the chairs
from the floor, and then the dancing began, while
on the second floor Five Himdred and Pedro were
played by those who wished.
Much of the credit for the success of this enter-
tainment belongs to Florence Doescher, for the able
and thorough manner in which she, through an
eSicient organization in the Film Department,
created interest among the employees, which was
responsible for the very satisfying attendance.
All in all it was "some" party, and the other
departments are now clamoring for "their night."
"Art" Williams has promised that there will be a
party for everyone, but we can assure you he will
have a hard time to surpass "Film Night."

Office team, was the individual luminary of the
contest, registering all of the three points that were
made. The rest of the players were Captain Clara

GIRL BOWLERS LOSE TO Y. & E.

Apicked team of bowlers from the Kodak Office
Girls' League opened their outside season on January
18 at Genesee Hall rolling the crack five of the
Yawman and Erbe Company, who have been burn-
ing up the alleys in the L A. R. A. I^eague and inde-
pendently for three seasons.
As was to be expected in the face of such opposi-
tion our girls lost out by a considerable margin.
They however acquitted themselves very creditably,
especially when the fact is considered that they were
rolling on strange alleys.
The Y. andE. girls did some remarkable pinning,
especially in the first game when they totalled 806,
a score which many a men's team fails to equal.
Miss Davis with scores of 178 and 168 and Mrs.
Steele with 167 and 177 were the leading lights for
the file makers, while Florence Wright with marks
of 136 and 157 set the pace for our team.
\^ Miss Davis accounted for four successive strikes
in the firstgame, while both she and Mrs. Steele had
a pair of doubles in the second.
Millie Gommenginger finished up strong with
triple to make her second game score 154.

BASKETBALL LEAGUE DISBANDS

HAAVK-EVE AND KODAK PAEK TIED FOR TOP RUNG AT FINISH
".4 short life, and a merry one".

AFTER six weeks of high
basketball, two extra-period
with
contests, and Hve games decided by three
points or less, the Kodak
Basketball
League came to a sudden and untimely
end at mid-season, when, on Friday,
January 13, the Executive Committee,
because of rapidly-dwindling attendance,
decided to cancel the balance of the
schedule. Whether the fact that the
meeting was held on Friday, the 13th,
had anything to do with the demise of
the court circuit is, liowever. problemat-
ical. When the attendance reached the
low figure of fifty-two for the double-
header of January 11, the officers of
the League decided it was high time to
call a halt on an activity which apj^ealed
to so few of the members of the organi-
zation, lest the League, by continuing,
should go even deeper in the hole. ISIost
of the teams in the League are planning
to keep on playing as independent organ-
izations, and there will doubtless be
plenty of Kodak basketball for the few
who want it.
The wind-up of the season found Kodak
Park and Hawk-Eye in a tie for first
place, with Kodak Office and Camera
Works trailing in the order named. The
luckless Camera Workers showed im-
provement in every start, but were never
quite able to nose out their opponents,
although, in the final game played they
had Coach Roach of the Hawk-Eyes
rainbow-hued with fright, and nothing
calibre but the emergency injection of "Wib"
Woodams into the Roach line-up saved
them from defeat.
The games of December 21 provided
the fans with their second extra-period
struggle in as many weeks, when Kodak
Park and Hawk-Eye ended the regular
playing session deadlocked at twelve-all.
Li the extra period the Parkers, displaying
their strongest line-up, with "Tommy"
Thompson at the pivot, and Heaney in
at guard, rushed through the Hawk
defense for a "20 to 13 decision. On the
same evening, Kodak Office "copped"
the most one-sided game of the season,
turning back their State Street neighbors,
the Camera Workers, 32 to 7.
After a week's holiday lay-off, Kodak
Office on January 4, crowded Hawk-Eye
from start to finish, and was nosed out
by only three points in a 20 to 17 score.
Captain Johnson of Hawk-Eye, with five
field baskets, was the big noise of this
game. Camera Works, showing a decid-
ed improvement in form, held the Park
even until late in the contest in the second
game of the evening, Init the Ridge outfit
finished with 19 points to the State
Streeters' 12.
The last night of the .season provided
the best basketball of the year, and the
fifty-two paid admissioners who braved
the snowstorm of January 11 saw two
games, each decided by a single point.

KODAK BOWLERS CONTINUE TO MUTILATE RECORDS

DESPITE holiday layoffs the bowlers
of the various Kodak leagues man-
aged to establish several new high records
during the four weeks ending January
17th, some of which are extremely
creditable to the organizations in question.
The Film Bowlers of the K. P. A. A.
League recently rung in a three-game
total of !2,87''2 to start off the
right and established a mark as yet
unequalled in any of the other Kodak
circuits.
It has remained, however, for the girl
bowlers to eclipse their former marks
all down the line. In the Kodak Office
Girls' League, Millie Gommenginger's
two-game record of '•296 is the only one
which remains undisturbed. Neva Potts
holds the new high single game with 172,
while the Tabulating Department carries
off the honors for high game and high
two games, with marks of 591 and 1,098.
In the Camera Girls League, Delia
Meerdink holds a record of 495 for high
three games, while the Juniors have
new year recorded the high team game of 7'-2'-2 and
high three games with 2, 166, marks of
which many a men's team might well be
proud. As the Magazine went to press,
much interest attached to the proposed
match between the five high girls of this
League and a team of men from the Elm
League, arranged by Leo Nowack, who
manages the Camera girls.

10 THE KODAK MAGAZINE
THE EXPENSE OF A MORTGAGE LOAN
COMPARATIVELY few people are in
position to pay the full purchase
price in cashwhen buying a home.
The
usual procedure is to pay a certain
per cent of the purchase price in cash,
with the balance secured by first and
second mortgages on the property.
In such cases it must be borne in
mind that there are certain unavoidable
expenses, most of them prescribed by
law, in connection with such transactions
which must be paid at the time the deal
closed.
Generally speaking these expenses will
amount to about two per cent of the
amount you intend to borrow and so,
before signing a sales contract, or other-
wise planning to close a deal, this amount
should be planned for in order to avoid
embarrassment or delay.
These expenses vary according to the
amount of the loan, the condition of the
title tothe property, the number of
appraisals necessary (only one if the
house is already built), and the value of
the unexpired insurance at the time of
transfer.
To illustrate let us take the bill of
expense when Mr. Smith bought a house
from Mr. Jones for $3,800.00. He paid
$600.00 in cash, and borrowed $2,600.00
from the Eastman Savings and Loan
Association and $600.00 from the Kodak
Employees Association. There were no
unusual conditions, and the expenses
were as follows:
Appraisal Fee $ 5 00.
Recording Deed
Recording First Mortgage
Recording Second Mortgage ....
Tax First Mortgage ( 34 of 1 %) . . 13 00.
Tax Second Mortgage (3^ of 1%)

gage Bond (1-20 of 1%)

Total $51.10
While the Eastman Savings and Loan
Association, working in conjunction with
the Kodak Employees Association
(Incorporated), possesses particular ad-
vantages for the financing of loans for
Kodak employees, it should be distinctly
understood that no employee should feel
himself in any way bound to finance the
purchase of his home through their
agency.
It is quite possible that there will be
is times when the Eastman Savings and
Loan Association will have all its available
funds loaned out, and that in some cases
the borrower may be able to secure,
for him, more advantageous terms
elsewhere.
Our Associations are at your service
at the lowest possible cost,and on the
terms we have been able
fairest possible
to devise, but this does not mean that
there are no other means available, and
so if you contemplate purchasing a home
we urge you to investigate the various
other methods as well.
It will perhaps be well to make another
point clear and that is, that while the
services of the attorney for the Associa-
tion are available to borrowers without
extra charge, they are at perfect liberty
to have an attorney of their own selection
represent them in all transactions with

It almost seems as if the boys of this plant
would do well to invest in shares of the Liederkranz
Hail, for it appears to be a favorite place for our
activities. The "Hot Dog" Club of office men had a
regular time at a bowling party last month, the
competing teams being captained by Charles Ir-
win, James Wright, William Stark and Norman
Robinson.
We noticed on the program a statement reading:
"Alfred Heggie will give an exhibition of fancy
bowling, providing a large enough audience is on

audience" and the performer "pulled" his little
stunts to the admiration of the other bowlers.
"Billy" Lawrence, the office reporter, has summed
up the get-together in these words: "Good time,
better food and the best in excitement."
SOME SMOKER
To say
that it was a "regular" smoker does not
half describe the affair that took place February
15. Last year the Recreation Club added a feather
to its cap with its "stag" party, and this recent
entertainment must have added a whole new set of
feathers. In fact, to put it mildly, it was a "bird"!
When four hundred red-blooded fellows get to-

must of necessity be a good one. The hours went

effect that he'd hate to shovel all the necessary coal

readily acquiesced.
"Xo job at all!"
Whereupon, turning, we found Charles Diegel.
superintendentof Maintenance, with his usual
jovial smile, who repeated: "Xo job at all."
"Well," we replied, "surely the task of even
supervising the automatic coal hoppers must be
quite enough to keep a man on the jump every
minute, isn't it.^"
And, right there and then, Mr. Diegel threw a
bombshell into the reporter's idea of our heating
system when he said that not one ounce of coal is
Viurned in the Camera Works buildings, ^^^lat

be facetious, "have heat delivered in containers
like bottled gas?"
"Something on the same order," quietly responded
Mr. Diegel, "only, instead of the heat being deliv-
ered in containers, it is delivered through a pipe!"
Which led to his being informed that all the knowl-
edge he could give us about our heating system
would be appreciated b}' the thousands of readers
of this Magazine, and Charles —
who would undoubt-
edly have blushed to the roots of liis hair, providing

about the subject in question.

"The Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation
supplies us with the greater part of the necessary
steam," we were informed. "A small part is the
exhaust from the Corporation's turbines, but our
supply is principally manufactured for us. I
should judge that the pipe-line is all of a cjuarter
of a mile long, and the pipe itself is fourteen inches
in diameter."
Wetried to picture what would happen to State
Street if the pijie became clogged, and the steam
forced its way out via the pavement. "How much
pressure is back of that steam?" was our next
question.
Mr. Diegel admitted that that question was
"a hot one." "We could get that information
from Xumber 3 station," Charles said, "but you
can rest assured that it's some little pressure. Of
coiu-se, the pipe-line is larger at the power house
that it is at Camera Works, and, by the time the
steam reaches us, it is considerably reduced, both
in volume and in pressure. We need no driving
mechanism, however, to circulate the steam through
our radiators, in spite of the fact that it travels
from the Genesee Flats to our buildings. We
measure the amoimt of steam we use by the con-
densation; that is, as the steam turns to water
it flows through a meter back to the Gas and Electric
station. Have you any idea how much steam we
use?"
Confessing ignorance, we learned that three
million pounds of steam is an average figure during
the winter, for one month's consumption.
"Oh, yes," added "Charlie," wishing to give full
measure, "I almost forgot to add that we actually
use more than that. Our incinerator is hooked
up with a seventy-five horsepower system for
making steam, and our home-made product then
mingles with that from the station house."
"Is any of this steam used for manufacturing
purposes?" we then inquired.
"Yes," was the reply. ''This steam, and more
just like it. We
have a six-inch high-pressure line,
used in the dipping room and lacquer ovens, and
also used in the kitchen, and on small engines and
pumps in our engine room."
"Well then, Charlie, does the steam system
supply all of our buildings?"'
"Practically, yes, either by direct or indirect
steam."
Just then we heard the Auto-call bell chime three
times. Charles reached for the 'phone and said:
"I'll be right over." And, hanging up, he added:
"Well. I guess that's about all the 'dope' I can tell
you without going into mathematics. Glad to give
you information any time you can catch me,"
and, with his well-known twenty-four-karat smile,
"Charlie" was on his wav.
A taste for work, like fondness for olives, can be
acquired. There is no other such satisfaction in
life as the contemplation of one task that you
know you have done unusually well; its very
thoroughness carries your signature for all men to

wanted it. Then there was a summer dance and

The Echo Club, an organization of thirty of
the older members of the Shipping Department,
and their wives, held a party in the Rest Room on
January 2.5. A roast pig dinner was served at
six o'clock, after which dancing and card playing
tended to while away the time until eleven. These
meetings are held monthly and a great deal
of interest is shown. A masquerade was held
on February 2(2. Messrs. Thurston, Zoerner
and Colegrove were the committee in charge.

In September there was the second annual Cobourg

The K. O. R. C. Glee Club was organized and a
piano purchased for the Girls' Rest Room. There
was a fall dance and then everything stepped aside
for the opening of the bowling season. Sixteen
alleys at the Elm Bowling Hall are kept hot every
Thursday night by "Norm" Ferris and "Jess" Natt,
who, as head officers, have made the bowling leagues
mighty entertaining.
During the fall and winter, sporting goods were
purchased through the Club at a considerable
saving.
Big plans are laid for 1922. They will be an-

is in for another big year with more members, more
good times and more general satisfaction than ever
before.
SALES MUST HAVE ITS GOOD TIME
The men of the Sales Department decided a few
weeks ago that enthusiasm in childish pastimes
was running at a low ebb and decided to take up
the manly art of roller-skating. This was done,
with the result that several prominent members
of the Department were laid up for repairs.
The girls, not to be oiitdone, decided to "show"
the men how to skate, so they "skated" a few nights
later. ^Many thanks are due F. E. Bachelder for

WE NEED YOUR HELP
The Kodak Suggestion System is one of the oldest
systems of its kind in the United States. This
plan of paying the employees for their ideas was
originally adopted at Kodak Park in the year 1898.
It was not until 1912 that it was decided to extend
this plan to the Main Office. Since that time the
Main Office system has expanded until now it
considers ideas coming from salesmen, demonstra-
tors, branch and stockhouse employees.
Under the original Kodak Park suggestion plan
seven hundred dollars was set aside annually for
awards. Fifty dollars was paid each month; a
first prize of twenty dollars, a second prize of ten
dollars and four prizes of five dollars each. A to improve and we must keep our eyes open and
special prize of one hundred dollars was paid at the
end of the year for the best idea received.
This plan was not entirely satisfactory as, at
first, during some months no suggestions were
received that merited first prize, while on the other
hand some of the ideas received were deserving of
more money than was allotted. This plan was
changed and it was decided to award one hundred
dollars every three months and distribute three
hundred dollars at the end of the year in special
prizes for the most valuable ideas. Later this
plan was abandoned and in 1912, when a suggestion
department was organized in Kodak Office, the
present plan was adopted. The awards are now
based on the .saving realized by the adoption of the
idea. During 1921, $10,457.23 was awarded to
Kodak employees for their suggestions. In some
cases the saving resulting from a suggestion cannot
absolutely be determined and the award is then
based on the estimated value. Oftentimes sugges-
tions call to our notice general maintenance condi-
tions that need attention. While we are glad to
have employees take an interest in the neatness
and general upkeep of the buildings, such ideas
can hardly be considered in the light of awardable
suggestions. The following classification gives the
various t.vpes of suggestions in their order of
importance:
Cost Reduction.
1. ^ the office, a hot supper was served in the dining
New Products and Improvement of Product.
2.
3. Improvement of Manufacturing and Office
Methods.
4. Reduction of Fire and Accident Hazard.
5. General Maintenance.
When a suggestion is received by the suggestion
secretary, it is first acknowledged and recorded.
If the idea is not clear the author is interviewed.
Then all the information possible is gathered, after
which the suggestion is placed before the suggestion
committee. This committee consists of twelve
executives, who carefully consider all suggestions
and recommend an award, to be finally approved
by the plant manager. If it is impossible to ascer-
tain the value of the suggestion at the time of its
adoption, a preliminary award is paid and the idea
later reviewed for an additional award.
A duplicate card kept in the Personnel
file is
Department showing all suggestions submitted by
the employees; what disposition each idea has
received, and the saving that has resulted by their
adoption. This, together with the other records,
is periodically reviewed.
Weare always on the lookout for improvement
suggestions. Every one adopted results in the
greater efficiency of some department or the im-
provement of some product and the author of every
suggestion having a monetary value is awarded
according to its worth.
Although exceptions have been made in the past,
department heads and foremen are not eligible
to participate in awards unless their suggestions
pertain to some department other than the one
in which they work.
There is possibility for even greater efficiency in
every phase of our business. It is to our interest
our minds keen for new ideas.
Oftentimes suggestions are submitted which
for some good reason cannot be put into effect.
Possibly later on a similar idea is sent in and circum-
stances make it practical to adopt it. In such
cases the original suggestion is reviewed, but if
the later suggestion was an improvement, or had
any considerable bearing on the final action the
award is generally divided between the two sugges-
tions, or otherwise disposed of in the manner that
seems most fair.
Wewant every suggestor satisfied with the dis-
position of his idea, and with a view to improving
the Main Office Suggestion System, we have pre-
pared the Suggestion Questionnaire which you will
find inside the front cover of the Magazine.
If you believe that oin* suggestion system can be
improved or extended, and have a constructive
criticism, we should be pleased to have you fill
out the questionnaire and send it in.
We
are anxious to make 1922 the biggest year
in the history of the Suggestion System and we
need the help of every employee.

A QUARTER "CENTURY-ER"
James J. Toole of Traffic Department,
the
affectionately known "Jimmie", completes his
as
twenty-five years of continuous service this month.
He entered the employ of the old Rochester Camera
Company in March, 1897, when that concern was
located on Elizabeth Street, and moved with them
to the present Folmer-Century plant, which they
built. One of "Jimmie's" jobs at that time was
to make pictures showing the progress of the exca-
vation and building, and he very distinctly remem-
bers the poor quality of his negatives which earned
him a "call-down" from his boss.
In 1900, after consolidation with other
the
companies which resulted in the formation of the
Rochester Optical and Camera Company, operations
were transferred to South Street the present—
Premo factory, which was purchased by the East-
man Kodak Company in 1903. "Jimmie" came to
Kodak Office in 1910 and has, for a long time, had

systematized the method of kee])ing this very

 HAWK-EYE
P. R.
THIRD ANNUAL SMOKER AT
There is one event, at which every good
least, for
Hawk-Eyete will bolt his Saturday night supper,
and that is the annual Y. M. C. A. smoker. The
starting time has gradually been moved backward,
until this yearit was 7:15. And at 7:15 the crowd
was on the spot just as in former years. It is
interesting to reflect on what would happen if
starting time at the plant were set back in the
same manner.
A five-piece orchestra warmed up things promptly
in the lobby. The music must have had at least
some charms that night, because
of its proverbial
not only the Hawk-Eyetes but all of the "Y"
habitues gathered around the garrulous saxo-
phones and George Willis's famous banjo.
At any rate, the music and the Muriels together
held the men for three-quarters of an hour, when
the swimming events were announced. Robert
Skelton, national breast-stroke champion, exhibited
a number of fancy strokes. Then there was some
real fancy diving and a hundred-yard race in which
the best of the local high school swimmers appeared.
The final event was a thrilling game of water push-
ball, between a team picked from the two high
.schools and the Y. M. C. A. team.
From the pool the men went to tl:e auditorium,
where "Bill" Eyer held sway as Entertainment
Chairman. Frank Newman led the singing of
several songs, helped along by lantern slides.
The double quartet, which has been working
hard during the winter, gave a sample of its work
that entirely justified the time that had been
devoted to practice. A couple of screen comedies
were followed by a magician, Erwin Sloane, who
fooled 'em all, to the accompaniment of soft music.
Two more selections by the quartet closed the
program.
The events in the gymnasium were distinct
from those of the last smoker, in that they demanded
no physical exertion on the part of the Hawk-Eye
guests. They consisted simply of two crackerjack
wrestling bouts and four rounds of boxing, the
latter between two ex-service men. The latter
were supposed to have been disabled in the war
but gave ample proof to the contrary.
Director Weismiller now announced that the
"gang" might have its choice of swimming or eating.
In a sense they did both, because everybody "dove"
for the refreshments in the auditorium. And no
wonder, since the three hours of fun was bound to
make them particularly appreciative of the famous
"Y'" coffee and sausages and fried cakes.
The event of the evening had been widely

advertised as a hair-raising wild duck chase in the
pool. The idea was to give two men a minute

that they would be disqualified if they failed to land
the bird in the allotted time. But "Red" Sond-
heim's ducks were in a sort of comatose state and
seemed to like nothing better than being caught,
with the result that "Charlie" Prentice captured
the first one in short order. In the second chase
"Bill" Springer couldn't see the duck and, like the
latest submarines, had to be directed by wireless.
The resultant delay cost him a Sunday dinner, the
bird being awarded to Ezra Myers.
Once again we have the Y. M. C. A. to thank
for an evening of wholesome entertainment. We
are especially indebted to Mr. Fred Wei.'-miller,
who directed the "Y's" end of the activities. From
beginning to end the smoker traveled along with
the utmost smoothness. No detail of arrangement
had been forgotten, nothing had to be omitted,
nothing held up the procession. The program
had been so worked out that no one was burdened
during the evening and as a result everyone, in-
cluding the committee, enjojed himself thoroughly.
The general committee was made up of the
following: John Vass, chairman; William Eyer,
Entertainment; William Schlegel, Refreshments;
Wilbur Woodams, Publicity; Sydney Leggatt, Pool
Tables; Robert Meinhard, Music; Lindsay Sond-
heim. Swimming Pool; John Rearson, Gymnasium.
George Kramer, Ralph Goodberlet, James Lucy,
Charles Prentice and Russell Bryson aided "Bill"
Schlegel in di.spensing the lunch. Fred Von Deben
and John Downey constituted "Red" Sondheim's
swimming committee and Arthur Rapp was chief
aide to "Bill" Eyer in arranging the program in the
auditorium.

GEORGE W. BRENNAN A SLEIGH-RIDE

George Brennan looks quite young in this
picture, and to do the photographer justice it is an
excellent likeness of the original, but nevertheless
GEORGE AV. BRENNAN
we wouldn't like to tell you how many years ago
George played on the Camera Works ball team.
He still had the baseball fever when he came to
Hawk-Eye about four years ago, which resulted in
his managing our 1920 championship team.
His last position previous to coming to Hawk-
Eye was in the Production Department of one of
the large arms companies, and he followed the same
general lines here. For a time he was the bonus
expert in our own Production Department. Now
he is Foreman of Inspecting, both of raw glass and
of the moulded and annealed disks.
Cold nights are common enough, and so are snowy
ones these days, but there were very few as ideally
suited to a sleigh-ride as tiie one which the Cleaning-
Inspecting girlspicked for their sleighing party.
The weather was one of the two chief factors in the
success of the affair. The congenial crowd was
the other.
The girls left the plant at half-past seven, and
during the next two hours there were very few
times when their tin horns couldn't be heard in
some quarter of the compass. Everything went
beautifully until Mary Buckley threw a scare into
the party with a self-induced fainting spell. All
efforts to revive her failed. However, when one of
her frightened companions suggested an application
of snow Mary "came to" with startling speed, to
the great amusement of everyone. After this
rather unexpected entertainment, Pauline Leim-
berger enlivened the party with songs which she
accompanied on her ukelele, and ^Vlrs. Owens gave
several Irish selections.
At half-past nine the girls returned to Hawk-Eye
where lunch awaited them. Strange to say, the
strenuous features of their ride had apparently
used only a small part of their energy, and the
second act of their jollification was just as noisy
and productive of fun as the first. After partaking
of plenty of refreshments, they managed to calm
down enough to finish with games and dancing.
The sleigh-ride was the second of two very
interesting affairs staged by the Cleaning and
Inspecting girls within a short time. Their success
has whetted the girls' appetite so that we hope to
be able to give reports of more of their Depart-
mental get-togethers in the near future.

ROSE LINGG
They say Rose Lingg is quiet, but not as
that
quiet as she looks, for her friends know that she
can be counted in on anything that promises whole-
some fun and a good time. Her favorite indoor
—
sport seems to be dancing in fact, if concentration
counts for anything, she should have Pavlowa lit-
erally backed off the boards. But that is only the
half of it. Since coming to us from the Camera
Works some two years ago. Rose has oscillated
between the Blocking and Disk Inspecting Depart-
ments, depending upon their requirements, and
she is equally good at either job. From which it
may be deduced that she has that great virtue of
going into everything in a whole-hearted way.

We extend our sincere sympathy to Mrs. Mar-

garet Hanna in the loss of her Mother on February 3.

MID-WINTER DANCE BREAKS RECORDS
At the Mid-Winter dance, the fourth of the
K. P. A. A. series, all previous party records were
broken. At 5:30 on the day of the party, nearlv
900 of the 1,000 available tickets were taken.
The few remaining were sold before 8:.30 and, for
the time in the history of the Association, the
first
box office was closed. Between 150 and 200 people
had to be turned away. This is the only regret-
table feature in connection with the affair, but the
1,000 limit was considered advisable to prevent
discomfort from over-crowding.
The hall had been converted into a veritable
"Fairyland." The entire interior, ceiling, walls, and
pillars were covered with pale blue and white
paper cut to resemble icicles, and the addition of
miles of tinsel gave one the impression of being
in a mammoth ice palace. From the center of the
ceiling was suspended a huge revolving sphere
covered with tiny mirrors on which a spot-light
played. At intervals along the side walls were
arranged colored lights. Directly inside the
entrance was arranged a group of snow-covered
evergreen trees, behind which were seen the famous
Kodak Park chimneys, this being a replica of the
decidedly novel program which was printed in
half-tone from a photograph. The stage at the
end of the hall was arranged as a living-room

During intermission a mammoth snowball
nearly eight feet high was rolled to the center of the
floor where Frank Hall, as the "snow man,"" danced.
Then several fairies, emerging from the "snow ball,"
threw snow-balls into the audience. Twenty of
these were numbered and the recipients were
awarded prizes of silver table service.
Great credit is due Paul C. Seel, superintendent
of the Chemical Department, who served as chair-
man for this party, and also the members of the
committee in charge of arrangements.

CINE SLITTING EMPLOYEES HOLD ANNUAL PARTY
Two huudred and twenty-five people, employees
of the Cine Slitting Department and their guests,
enjoyed on February 2 the second annual banquet
and dance of the Department. During the dinner,
served in the second floor dining hall of Building
28, community singing was led by James Peters.
After all appetites had been satisfactorily ap-
peased, the party adjourned to the Assembly Hall,
where Henry Ireland's "Never Were Minstrels"
were presented for the first time on the (American)
stage. An overture rendered by the Department
orchestra under the direction of Martin Gardner,
preceded the opening of the show.
James Inslee, as interlocutor, introduced the
—
end men Clarence Weaver, Jack Leckinger,
—
Wheaton Holt and Reynolds Stone and the fun
began. In addition to the numbers rendered by
the end men and chorus, specialties by William
Mason, William Mattern and Carl Holt made a
big "hit."
The olio which followed was equally enjoyable,
as was the showing of the motion picture taken
at the Department outing last summer. Another
big feature of the program was "A Trip Through
Filmland," the picture showing the manufacture
of film at Kodak Park. The opportunity of viewing
this remarkable piece of motion picture art proved
exceptionally interesting as it gave this group of
film workers an insight into the many phases of
film manufacture in which they themselves have
an important part.
Little Edith Mae Hooker, three-year-old daughter
of Samuel Hooker of the Kodak Park restaurant,
captured the hearts of the audience with several
recitations. A musical number by the Ehre
brothers, vocal selections by Marie Mattern,
"Bob" Caine's Scotch impersonations, and a novel
dancing act by "Marge" Christian and Margaret
McCabe completed the entertainment for the
'TIIKKK .\i:i'LH
evening. Every number was excellent, the most
remarkable feature in connection with the entire
program being the absence of any "amateur" tone,
and the fact that so much high class talent was
available in one single department. "Martie"
Gardner is deserving of great credit for the "finished"
orchestra he produced for the occasion.
Mr. Farley, representing the management of
the Finished Film Department, thanked everyone
who had a part in making the aft'air a success
and expressed great pride in this accomplishment
of the employees.

FRANK X. HAUSER RE-ELECTED
Frank X. Hauser
of the Cotton Washing Depart-
ment, has been re-elected president of the Kodak
Park Fur and Feather Club for 1922, this being his
fourth term. Mr. Hauser has been president since
the Club was organized in 1919.
For vice-president Fred Habel of Building 12
was again named. Other officers for the current
year are:
—
Corresponding Secretary Joseph Jansen, Build-
ing 12.
Recording Secretary — Warner Hauss, Building

At present there are about 160 active members
of the Club, who are building up their stock in
anticipation of the 1922 event. Regular meetings
are held every two weeks. New members are
always welcome, and anyone interested is invited
to attend the meetings and become acquainted.

and were piled into three large wagons, driving to
Charlotte and then back to the Maplewood Y. M.

served.
An entertaining vaudeville program had been
prepared, all the talent being obtained from among
the employees of the Department. Musical num-
bers by Gertrude Paille and Fred Dierdorf included
duets, a combined piano and violin selection by
Mr. Dierdorf, and several pleasing solos by Miss
Paille. Estelle La Rivee sang several songs and
Bernice Latting favored the audience with recita-
tions. The balance of the evening was given over

CLOSE RACE IN BOWLING LEAGUES
With the bowling season two-thirds over, the
task of picking the winners is still an impossible
one. In each League there is more than one team
which may emerge on top and, with every outfit
at its best, the final lap should be most interesting.
The Ponies are leading in the K. P. A. A. League
by a few games, with Building 30, Senecas and Film
pressing them hard.
The Yard team is still leading in the Yard League,
although the Steel Shed and Stores in a tie for
second place are worrying them considerably.
Another good finish is promised here, as well as
in the Kodee League, where the Positives and
Pelloids are fighting it out for the lead, with the
Panchros but two games behind.
Bowling has been popular at the Park this winter,
and no trouble has been experienced in obtaining
regular players. The interest shown may possibly
lead to another league next season in order to pro-
vide for those who desire to participate.
Employees of the Reel Gauging Department
regret the loss of Evelyn Crawford, whose death
occurred on February 2. We extend our deepest
sympathy to the surviving relatives, especially
her father, Robert W. Crawford, of the Dope
Department, and her two brothers, Ebbie, of the
Emulsion Melting Department, and Charles, of
the Emulsion Coating Department.
The Emulsion Coating Department extends its
sympathy to John W. Reynick, whose father died
January 19, and also to John E. Farman, whose
brother died on January 28.

under his supervision. Our best wishes for many
happy returns of the day.
4.000 AISITORS IX 1921
The world-wide fame of Kodak Park results in
our having visitors from all countries whenever the
opportunity affords it.self. A very busy year was
1921, when over 4,000 people were conducted
through the Works by George W. Strutt, official
guide, and his assistants. This is an increase of
nearly 1,000 over 1920.
Of this number nearly 300 were from foreign
countries, Switzerland ranking first with thirty-six
representatives. Japan is second with thirty-four,
Italy twelve, England ten, and .so on to include
almost every other nation. All but three states
of the Union were represented. New York leading
in number. Most notable among the "Parties
of Visitors" entertained were: 2.50 delegates to
the Convention of Motion Picture Exhibitors from
the State of Xew York, a party which included
several popular actors and actresses; 400 delegates
to the spring meeting of the American Chemical
Society; members of the Swiss Mission for the
study of economic and commercial conditions in
North America; Ambassador Vittrio Orlandi Ricci,
envoy to the United States from Italy; students
from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology;
seven distinguished Japanese business men, guests
of Mr. Eastman; and 200 members of the Rochester
Chapter, American Institute of Banking.

a men's gymnasium class which meets every Wed-

is devoted to calisthenics, after which thirty min-

Basketball is far from being a dead issue at the
Park. The "regulars" are playing games each
week away from home, meeting with considerable
success against some of the fastest quints in the
State. Every Monday evening the K. P. A. A.
League teams meet in their scheduled matches.
In addition, the girls are playing whenever the
opportunity arises.
The ease with which the Kodak Park lassies
disposed of the much-talked-of Northeast team
at the Stratford Roller Rink on February 3, proves
their ability to meet and conquer the best outside
the Park. In the Northeast line-up were: Mae
Carr, former Kodak player; Jennie Walzer, last
year's captain of the Premo team, and Ruth
Kreiss and Etta Guillard, Electric Company stars.
Kodak Park was represented by Julia Thayer,
Celia Korn, Ethel Stuck, Marion DeBurgomaster
and Louise Singleton. Our girls won with little
trouble, 13 to 9.
The K. P. A. A. elimination tournament was
opened late in February between the teams of the
Departmental League, the girls playing prelim-
inaries. The winner of these matches will meet
the "regulars" for the Park honors.
 FIX PICKERS TO ROLL FOR
plans materialize, star bowl-
IFerspresent
of the five Kodak branches will meet
on the alleys some time in April to de-
termine which plant turns out the best
talent. In previous seasons, when the
old Camera League was functioning, no
such tournament was necessary, for the
reason that the winter's work in this
League served to decide the champion-
ship beyond any question. But now, the
Eastman Trophy is reposing snugly in
Kodak Park's case by virtue of the
Parkers' victory in the 1920-21 season,
and there it will remain until such time
as the old circuit is once more under way.
The proposed tournament is planned
for the purpose of settling this mooted
question of the company championship.
On past performances, Kodak Park is
considered the favorite. In the twenty
years of the Camera League, the Parkers
carried off the cup nine times, while
Camera Works was winning it five times,
Premo three, and Folmer-Century twice.
Then, too, the Kodak Park organization
has a nuich larger number of bowlers
from which to pick its team. However,
this winter's rolling in the Folmer-
Century and Kodak OflBce Leagues has
resulted in some exceptionally good
scores, and some of these boys may spring
a surprise. While there has been no
League at Camera Works this season,
many of the old-time stars are still
the roster, and this plant will never find
difficulty in mustering a (pialily quintette.
At Hawk-Eye, George Kosel is the old
stand-by from whom the other bowlers
take their cue, and if his mates can follow
COMFANY CHAMFIONSHIF
the pace he sets, they will have a good
chance to win.
So far, the tournament plans call for
five-man matches only, but it is possible
that singles and doubles events may also
be included.
HOW ABOUT IT?
THE Kodak Magazine for December,
1921, carried the suggestion that the
time about ripe for a Kodak Indoor
is
League —games to be played on
outdoor
diamonds. Interest in this sport eclipsed
all previous records last season, when
the fans at Hawk-Eye and Kodak Park
gave loyal support to their noon-hour
Leagues. The Office boys played their
games evenings at Exposition Park, and
developed a crack team, representing the
Shipping Department, which went
through the season without a defeat.
It would seem therefore that it is about
time for our various Athletic Associations
and Recreation Clubs to get together and
lay plans for a Kodak League. There is
a wealth of talent in all the plants, and
the fans certainly would appreciate such
entertainment during the noon hour.

THE HOME OF CANADIAN" KODAK COMPANY, LTD.

FOLLOWING the history of Kodak
distribution geof^fraphically, the next
step is to Canada, that vast empire
extentling to the north and west from our
boundary line.
From the
start oiu* business with
Canathi grew and expanded rapidly, and
it early became advisable to establish a
separate organization to handle our
products across the line.
Canadian Kodak Company, Ltd., was
organized in December, 1899, and on the
nineteenth day of March, 1900, the first
bill of goods w'as shipped from the small
rented premises in Toronto.
The first building occupied was a small
three-story one with a floor space of about
9,500 square feet, which at the time was
more than sufficient. The total staff
numbered ten.
At first no manufacturing was at-
tempted. There were departments for
the cutting and packing of film and paper
as sent from Rochester, the staff of these
departments totalling two employees each.
Except for the fitting of lenses and
shutters, and the focusing, all Kodaks
and Brownies were ready for sale when
received from Rochester.
In the short period of two years the
original plant was outgrown, ground
Avas purchased and a four-story factory
was constructed, with four times the
floor sjjace of the first building. This new
factory, located on King Street, Toronto,
was occupied in June, 190'"2. So eager
was the staff to get going in the new quar-
ters that it moved in before tilings
were completed, and for a time the only
means of reaching the office on the second
floorwas by way of a plank.
The year 1904 witnessed the doubling in
size of this plant by the erection of a
connecting four-story structure. This
year also witnessed the beginning of the
manufacture of our products in Canada,
the plate factory being the first one to be
put in operation. The production of
mounts, film and paper, soon followed.
A third large extension of the King
Street plant, completed in 1908, permitted
the manufacture of Kodaks and Brownies.
In 1913 it was all too evident that
further expansion was imperative; liow-
exer all available space was in use, and
there were no adjoining lots that could be
secured.

MOST some time
of us, have
received a package from some point
or other,

condition, and perhaps wondered whether

appearance. But this seldom happens

cardl)oard container weathers a journey
from New York to San Francisco in
good style, because our modern trans-
portation facilities see to that. Now, to
send the same pair of shoes in the same
frail container to Lima, Peru, or Santiago,
Chile, in South America, would be
foolhardy.
It may surprise some of us to learn that
there is not one single port on the west
coast of South America in which an
ocean-going ship may discharge its cargo
on the docks. Shipments from foreign
coimtries must be transferred to a lighter,
and carried to shore where they are
handled again and again, for the most
part by unskilled labor. If a consign-
ment is destined for some point in the
plateaus of Bolivia or Peru, the Andes
mountains stand as a barrier to trans-
portation there, by any method other
than by mule or llama. Often the goods
travel for days over rough and narrow
roads and not much care or concern is
given them by the native Indian trans-
porters. Then too, if perishable goods
are being sent, the torrid climate encount-
ered on the way has to be considered, as
well as the heavy seasonal rains of other
sections, and the cold weather in the
Andes. Such conditions present big
problems for American shippers.
If one were to visit our Export Shijjping
Department at State Street, he would
wonder at the care and attention given
to details in packing and preparing
merchandise for shipment to South
America. In order to get our goods safely

system and the markings must agree
with the packing record or invoice;
otherwise double duty might have to be
paid for such an error.
If Kodaks and film are to be sent to
Brazil, our export shippers know just
how to pack the goods, just what size
container is best for the handling in that
country, and all the other necessary
details as to customs regulations
and transportation facilities. Again
if a shipment is to go to a point in the
Andes mountains, where there are no
railroads to transport large cases, the
goods are packed in smaller containers to
insure safer and easier handling under
the adverse conditions.
It has often been said that South
Americans are reluctant to trade with
their northern neighbors because of the
careless way the latter pack their goods
for the rough handling they have to
undergo. Realizing this we exercise every
precaution in careful packing, sealing,
weighing, and the many other details in
the filling of an export order.

one heel touching the floor, and smile sweetly.

A large number notices were received this

employees who are ill, and others who have returned
after an illness. We regret that the space at our

HARRY J. POTTER
A notice of the death of Harry J. Potter came to
us as a great shock.
Mr. Potter came to the company on March 12,
1913, his first employment being at Folmer-Century
Division. For five years he travelled in the West
selling professional apparatus. In April, 1917, he
was transferred to the Advertising Department at
Kodak Office.
On account of ill health Mr. Potter resigned his
position in October, 1920, and went to California
to live. His health improved with the change and
in December, 1920, he re-joined the company,
this time with the Howland & Dewey Company,
Los Angeles.
Mr. Potter was taken ill with pneumonia and
died on March 6 at his home in Los Angeles.
We extend our deepest sympathy to his family.

 THE KODAK
GOING UP?"
Back in the old days of the Kodak organization,
say around about 1885 or '90, when the complete
Kodak Office staff was housed in the building
occupying the site of the present sixteen-story
structure, there was no serious "Up and Down"
problem. With only one elevator, which the
passengers operated themselves, the troubles of the
Maintenance Department, on that score at least,
were limited for the most part to an infrequent
replacement of the wooden stair treads.
When, however, in 191'2, our present Building 7
reared its sixteen stories to a height of two hundred
and twenty-eight feet above street level, thereby
becoming Rochester's foremost skyscraper, the
problem of vertical transportation grew more
acute. Accordingly, the equipment of this new
building included the three modern electric passen-
ger elevators, which we use daily.
We are all, of course, well acquainted with the
members of the "Up and Down" Club, as our
elevator chauffeurs call themselves, and we have
heard much of their social activities.
Altogether the Up ahd Downers have control
over nine electric motors with a combined force of
two hundred and forty-five horsepower. Each of
the three passenger elevators in Building 7 is
equipped with its own thirty-five horsepower motor.
These motors are housed, together with the other
necessary machinery, in a special room just under
the water tank. The three main passenger elevators
are of the traction type. Eacli is supported by six
ELECTRIC MOTORS WHICH SUPPLY POWER FOR OUR BIG ELEVATORS
steel cables which run over large drums. These
drums in turn are controlled by the above mentioned
motors. Hea\'V' weights on the opposite ends of
the cables serve to counterbalance these cars.
The cars themselves are of steel construction.
They are wafted up and down at an average speed
of about four hundred and fifty feet per minute.
Twenty-four people, or a nuiximum weight of three
thousand pounds, is the peak load for each car.
Probably it has never l)een your misfortune to be
stranded between floors with the elevator unable
to go either up or down. If, however, you ever
should get in such a fix, it will be comforting to
:\L\GAZL\E 15
know that you will not be hung up there in mid-air
for fifteen minutes or half an hour while the boss
wears your buzzer to a frazzle or sends frantic
messengers on your trail for some important rush
job. Xo, indeed, in case of any such mishap "Cy"
or "Ray" or "Freddie," or whoever happens to be
at the wheel, will merely pick up his telephone and
communicate with the elevator mechanic. Prompt-
ly another car will arrive alongside, and you will be
transferred to the second car by means of communi-
cating doors in the sides of the two elevators.
Safety devices are prominent features of all our
elevators. There is first, the automatic safety
stop which throws off the current and brings the
car to a halt within five feet should it rush too madly
on its descent. Likewise, electric door switches
make it impossible to operate the car while the
door is open. There is also a light which flashes
on and illuminates the threshold when a car comes
to a stop at any floor. One of the duties of the
elevator mechanic is to make an inspection trip
in each car every morning to test the safety appli-
ances and switches, and thus to make sure that
everj-thing is in order for the day. Such precautions
on the part of the operators naturally call for
cooperation from us, the passengers. One simple
rule carefully observed by each rider vrill go far
toward eliminating the danger of elevator accidents,
and that is: upon entering the car move as far as
possible toward the back and stand facing the door.
It goes without saving that no one other than the
operator should ever toucli the controlling
mechanism.
The large passenger elevators are equipped with
automatic counters wliich tabulate on an average
two hundred trips per day for each car. Thus, in
the course of the year, the "Three Big Fellows"
make over one hundred and seventy-five thous;ind
trips, traveling a total distance of nearly thirteen
thousand miles.
And so we see that our friends of the Up and
Down Club, while they may not exactly be classed
as globe trotters, nevertheless cover a surprising
amount of space in the course of a twelvemonth.

A DESERVED PROMOTION
It is with mingled pride and regret that we learn and proud of the fact that one of our own organi-
of the transfer of Herman Quinlin from the Sales zation picked for such an important post (for,
is —
Department to the Canadian Kodak Company, if we do say it ourselves, we don't know of any
better organization to pick from); but we deeply
regret that we must lose "Quinnie's" genial
comradeship.
Mr. Quinlin entered the Kodak Office organization
early in 1910, coming from Hawk-Eye. He was
first assigned to field work in the Sales Department,
spending two years '"on the road," but in 1912 was
called in as correspondent, supervising sales. This
latter work has brought him in intimate contact
with the entire Kodak organization and service,
so that this close knowledge of the business in —
combination with "Quinnie" himself is perhaps —
the .secret of his selection. It's a pleasant theory
to think —
that if we do plug along and know
the business, and have the perseverance to
acquire personality if we haven't got it maybe —
some day we'll all be assistant general managers.
At some momentous time in his career "Quinnie"
acquired Mrs. "Quinnie" and since then at various
times two smaller "Quinnies" have acquired him;
so that it will be a representative little bunch of
Yankees that will storm Kodak Heights.

TWO SUCCESSFUL DANCES CONCLUDE
The K. P. A. A. Dance Series of 1921-22 will
remembered as the finest in the history of
Association.
At the Mid-Winter Dance, everyone felt that
no other dance chairman could out-do the decora-
tions. Chairman John Schaeffer, with his able
committee, proved the fallacy of that when they
gave us the Valentine Dance. The entire hall was a
mass of hearts, 11,000 of which were used in cover-
ing the ceiling. Each pilaster was a huge valentine
representing the individual work or original idea of
some member of the committee. On the stage was
an immense valentine with the slogan, "Be My
Valentine" across it in gold letters. The entire
effectgave the impression of looking through a hall
of valentines toward an immense heart.
At intermission time, Pauline and Clara Luce
gave an exhibition, following which the valentine
on the stage opened slowly, disclosing a pair of
stairs down which tripped Edith Mae Hooker,
dressed as Cupid. She danced and then threw
numbered hearts into the audience, the recipients
of which were given favors. Damon's Record
Orchestra played for the dancing.
The entire affair was lavish in decorations and
certainly maintained the reputation of the Kodak
Park Athletic Association series throughout the
entire city. To Chairman Schaeffer and his entire
committee are due congratulations of the Park.
Following were the members of Mr. Schaeffer's
committee: Maude McCann, Catherine Rex, Wilhel-
mina Clark, Helen Taylor, Harriet Hyde, Mary
Warne, Emma Briggen, Madeline Hayes, Anna
Beach, Anna P. Sorg, Mrs. Cissy Eddon, Esther

Grunst, and Henry Combs.
Then, last of the series was the Shamrock Dance
with Chairman Zinmierli in charge. This last dance
was held in the Kodak Park As.sembly Hall on
Friday evening, March 17, and as the affair fell on
St. Patrick's night, the committee worked out some
unique schemes of decoration in green and white,
shamrocks and harps being used in great i)rofusion.
Another novel feature was the serving of refresh-
ments from a huge well, which had been erected at
one end of the hall.

SOCCER CLUB CHAMPS
On March 13. the Soccer Club basketball team
clinched claim to the inter-departmental cham-
its
pionship by defeating Building 50, last year's
'champs", with a score of 30 to 24. The game
see-sawed back and forth at the beginning, but at
half-time the Soccer boys led by 16 to 9. This
victory gives the team a lead of a game over its
nearest rival.
Manager Rife, of the new champions, has had
the following team in the field during the season:
guards, Kelly, Fratter, Weike; center, Bahr; for-
wards, McMaster, Quigley, Frigonne.
The many friends of Stanley W. Brown of the
E. & M. Engineering Division, somehow became

strenuous one of the benedicts. On this occasion,
Mr. Brown's desk was decorated in the most
appropriate manner.

Some 1,600 enthusiastic people of the paper
departments— Department 50, Baryta, Velox, Paper

friends were present at their Community Night
held in the Kodak Park Assembly Hall.
The hall was attractively decorated with the
products peculiar to the departments interested
and a large sign bearing the words "Paper People,"
covered the entire side of the south wall. At the
entrance to the hall was a large postal card addressed
to Kodak Park, reading: "Having a fine time;
wish you were here. Signed, Paper People." It
was an apt slogan which attested the spirit of the
evening.
A long and interesting program had been prepared.
The first number was a musical act by the well-
known "Knope Family Orchestra." Mr. Knope
is employed in Department 50. Then, followed a
novel act called "A Bachelor's Dream," staged by

which were contributed by Mr. J. W. Johnston as
a testimonial to the Scotch employees at Kodak
Park. Four of the band members are employed
at the plant and their friends who were present
evinced their pride in the ability and fine showing
of the clansmen. Preceding the "movies" timely
cartoons on prominent members of various depart-
ments were displayed upon the screen. A Harold
Lloyd comedy finished the entertainment.
Square dancing was enjoyed, and a number of
country people did an old-fashioned country break-
down, to the musical accompaniment of a lone
fiddler. The Scotch pipers provided music for an
old-time Scotch folk dance, after which the
Community Night orchestra took charge and "jazz"
reigned supreme.
All in all, it was a very happy evening, and the
"paper people" modestly announced it the finest of
the Community Night series.
Friday evening, March 3, the fifth of the series
of Kodak Park Community Nights was held in the
Assembly Hall, with the film products departments
participating. Over 1,200 employees and relatives
were kept in an uproar from the moment Song
Leader Jesse Milham started them off until the
last note of the orchestra for the dancing died out.
The departments interested were the
directly
Emulsion Coating, Film Storage, Black Paper,
Film Emulsion, Roll Coating, and Chemical Plant.
Committees from these departments planned the
entertainment and decorated the hall with the help
of "Art" Williams and "Marge" Ellis.
Jesse Milham started the ball rolling when he
got thex:rowd to singing the old-time songs. "Ben"
Turpin in "East Lynn" followed, and the vaudeville
acts came on. A dancing, talking and singing act.
a musical juggling act, and a cycling act all centered
around Evan Davies, who gave a splendid series of
showing of Harold Lloyd in "I Do."
Following the entertainment the various depart-
ments congregated under their respective signs and a
general "get-together" was held. Over 500 tripped
"the light fantastic" until midnight.
Mention must be made of the distinctive decora-
tions worn by the different groups. The Emulsion
Coating, Film Storage and Black Paper people all
wore pink rosebuds, the Chemical Plant red hats,
and the Emulsion and Roll Coating men had vari-
colored tags.
As a genuine get-together, and a democratic,
fun-di.spensing party, this will be ranked as one
of the most successful of the winter season.

Mr. Baltzer was presented with a sterling silver

his co-workers of the Cashiers' Department in
wishing him great success in his new endeavors.
DR. MONSEN ADDRESSES FOREMEN
The foremen held their regular monthly dinner
on March 9, about 300 being present to enjoy
another one of Fred Grastorf's famous dinners.
During the dinner Taylor's orchestra played several
selections, and the Kodak Park Octette, under the
direction of George Englehardt, gave several num-
bers which won much applause.
After the dinner the members enjoyed an inter-
esting talk given by Dr. Frederick I. Monsen of
California, his subject being, "The Genesis of the
American Indian" — illustrated. Dr. Monsen had
many interesting slides taken from negatives made
during his travels and explorations through the
West and Southwest.
BIG CROWDS AT NOON-HOUR
ENTERTAINMENTS
The Assembly Hall is filled to its capacity at all
the noon-hour entertainments. Just a short notice
of the coming event, and all are there.
Nine hundred people attended the entertainment
given by the Marie Walter Company, consisting of
three very clever entertainers.
The noon of March 24 brought another pleasant
surprise, featuring Charles R. Taggart, musical
humorist, "The Man from Vermont." He is best
known as "The Old Country Fiddler," and has
made many Victor records.
 THE KODAK
K. P. A. A.
The last smoker afforded a big night for the
fight fans of Kodak Park, and the ringside fraternity
came into its own when Sherman Pierce, Kodak
Park's boxing impressario, put on one of the best-
balanced cards of his match-making career. From
bantamweight to heavyweight. "Sherm" had
arranged a program that sparkled with action,
not one dull bout spoiling the evening. Confronted
with the necessity of using amateur boxers, because
of the existing laws on licensing boxing clubs, the
matchmaker succeeded in presenting a series of
events which proved conclusively that good ama-
teur boxing is preferable to professional stalling.
The Park boys who engaged in the bouts, which
were arranged to determine the amateur cham-
pions of the K. P. A. A., were all good and some
showed so much promise that many astute observers
were of the opinion that they would compare favor-
ably with any in the city.
The bouts were as follows:
"Johnnie" Young, Building 48, weight 120
pounds vs. "Young" Bozo, Building 48. This
was a fast, clean bout, and the verdict of a draw
was a popular one.
"Billy" La Plant, Building 48 shaded Percy
Gunn, Building 12; weight, 130 pounds. Good
bout.
"Billy" Van, Building 50, defeated "Young"
Fitzgerald, Building 55, on points. Weight, 132
pounds. One-sided, but good.
"Bud" Clark, Building 49, won in the third
round from "Bill" Scheer, Building 30. Weight,
140 pounds.
"Joe" Utilitis, Building 5, weight 164 pounds,
won in the third round from "Jimmie" Leistman,

were accorded well-merited applause.
Between each bout vaudeville acts met with
great favor from the responsive crowd.
The committee in charge was: Sherman Pierce,
chairman; Wilson Maston, George Engelhardt,
"Don" McMaster, George Ashley, William Mc-
Auliffe, Thomas Carey, Harold Bircher, Charles
Schlansker, and R. C. Ruckoldt.
The employees of Department 50, are pleased to
learn that William Butterfield and William Cooman
are rapidly recovering from their recent operations.
The boys wish both a speedy return to work.
Frank Johnson, of Department 50, passed around
the "smokes" last week. The reason is a 10- —
pound baby girl. Congratulations, Frank.
The Black Paper Winding Department extends
sympathy to Fred French in the recent loss of his
wife.
All wondered why Mabel Prentice of the Main
Office,Building 2(i, had such a broad smile on her
face the day after \'alentine, when somebody dis-

STEREO BOWLERS FINISH IN LEAD

The third season of the Fohiier-Ceiitury BowUng
League was brought to a close on Friday, March 17,
after a most successful winter on the alleys. Much
of the interest in this year's race can be traced to
the exciting three-cornered contest between Stereo,
Compact, and Graflex, which was waged for two
months, resulting finally in victory for the Stereo
squad.
Thereafter, Compact and Graflex went into a
battle for second place honors, a struggle, which,
by the way, did not end until the last balls were
rolled on the final night. Kirvan's good work during
this period came in mighty handy, and Compact
took second place by the narrow margin of one game.
"Andy" Sold's Graflex team was thus forced to
be content with third place, while Auto, Junior,
must be satisfied with the position of cellar champions.
Stereo's high game of 891, rolled early in the
season, stands as a record. Kirvan, with a mark
of 2i4, holds the high single game mark. He also
had the high three-game total until the final night,
when Bird seized the honors with a mark of 584.
Stereo's three-game total of ^^SO is also high.

THIRD ANNUAL FROLIC
If we overlook the few favored males who were
allowed to supply the music, the girls had everything
in the plant to themselves on the evening not so long
ago when they celebrated their third annual frolic.
The program openeil at half-past eight with a
violent outburst on the part of the orchestra. This
gave way to an act designated as the "Jolly Five."
The "jolliers" were Ruth and Marion Kurtz, Lucy
Tate, Dorothy Kucht and Elizabeth Kurtz at the
piano.
The second number was a dance by Vivian Groh
and Frank Failing. Vivian is the daughter of
Foreman "Bert" Groh of the Buff and Plate Depart-
ment, and Frank is a grandson of "Jim" Bohan,
chief of the Maintenance and Construction. Both
are well-known in the city as juvenile dancers and
we are pleased to be able to claim them as young
Hawk-Eyetes.
Next followed three "gentlemen," Florence
Bess, Helen Kieffer, and Zelma Burgess, known
as the Alabama Trio. They were hard to beat for
glad raiment, shuffling steps and an excellent line
of darky palter.
The finale was supplied by the "Old Fashioned
Album," a series of living pictures portraying the

Ruggles of Hicksville. They were exhibited in a
six-foot frame and introduced by the last of the
illustrious family, Ruthina Ruggles, impersonated
by Ruth Kurtz. Elvira Lad wig and Pauline Leim-
berger represented Grandma and Grandpa Ruggles,
just after their marriage. Margaret Freitag rein-
carnated Aunt Namazia, who had once been the
belle of the town. Loretta Welch took the part of
the shy and quiet Aunt Euphemia, who had suc-
ceeded in shocking the natives by eloping. Deltha
Campbell represented another talented cousin,
whose special obsession was the violin. Last, but
not least, was Loretta Ereth as Ichabod Hickob,
the melancholy parson, who closed the album amid
a roar of applause.
With the appearance of the lunch the committee
rested on its laurels and left the girls to their own
devices for the rest of the evening.
The party, given under the auspices of the Hawk-
Eye Athletic Association, was engineered by the
following general committee: "Billy" Wilson, chair-
man, Marie Leimberger, Elvira Ladwig, Inez Pren-
tice, Pauline Leimberger, Lucy Tate, Lyda Ladwig,
Clara Smith, Ethel Pullen.
BOWLING PARTY
Bowling wasn't as dead during the winter as one
might think. For instance, tliere was that howling
good time thirty of the men had at Brueckner's
alleys towards the end of the season. It was blow-
ing a gale, street lights were out and cars refused to
run, but nevertheless four teams, captained by
Fred Von Deben, George Brennan, "Doc" Craib
and George Kosel found their way in and battled
for two hours. Kosel's team was returned victor
by virtue of beating both the Von Deben and the
Brennan outfits. Craib was in turn defeated by
Brennan, and was therefore ranked as cellar
champion.
Among the stars, "Larry" Tarnow started like a
house afire and amassed four strikes l)efore weaken-
ing. "Gene" Easterly rolled well but was always
very hard to find when his turn came around. The
most consistent performer was Harry Althoff, who
tried out a new cross-fire or something that sent
most of his attempts into the gutter.
An excellent lunch was served when the "fight"
was over. This gave Althoff as well as "Bill"
Roach and "Les" Clevenger, another chance to
shine and we are glad to report that they came up
to everyone's expectations.
George Kosel, "Red" Sondheim and Frank
Quetchenback, who collaborated on the plans for
the affair, are now talking of a theater party and
banquet.
 THE KODAK MAGAZINE
WELL SATISFIED
The group on the next page comprises, with the
exception of three absentees, the eight Hawk-Eye
committees that visited institutions participating in
the Community Chest. The Infants' Summer Hos-
pital was called on late last summer by Alice Barry,
Helen Knitter and Clara Quenan, Miss Barry acting
as chairman. More recently, on February 27, to be
exact, a committee consisting of George Kosel as
chairman, together with Joseph Frank and Gregory
George, visited the Workers for the Blind. On the
following day, three committees made calls. George
Lohr and Charles Durkin visited the Homeopathic
Hospital, while Alexander Muir, chairman, John
Regan and Henry Boecker visited the Tuberculosis
Association. Henry Miller was chairman for a
committee that went to the General Hospital,
Joseph Becker and Alois Groell being the other
members. On March 1, three members of the
Mounting Department, Arthur Rapp, Michael
Gusst and Assistant Foreman Harding, with the
latter in charge, visited St. Mary's Boys' Orphan
Asylum. On the same day, another group, con-
sisting of George Reisinger, Albert Crawford and
William McDonald, chairman, called on St. Mary's
Hospital. The last call was made the next day at
the Highland Hospital by William Klos, Christ
Oehler and John Lehle. "Bill" Klos acted as
chairman. He and "Jack" Lehle returned to the
Highland a few days later to clear up an apparent
discrepancy between its costs and those reported
by the General Hospital.
We are giving below a few of the reports submitted
by the committees. While it is not possible to
publish all of them, the tone and contents of those
given are typical of the whole number and make it
certain that the committees, and through them the
whole plant, will have a clearer conception of the
invaluable work being done with the Chest funds.
"We found the Highland Hospital in splendid
condition, the only adverse circumstance being
the crowded state resulting from the influenza and
similar ailments prevalent in the city.
"We took up the question of the admittance of
patients whose ability to pay was doubtful. We
felt that this was one of the most important points
involved because delay in admittance in such cases
might have very serious results. Dr. Landers,
superintendent of the hospital, informed us that
all patients, unless specifically sent by a doctor,
were examined immediately upon their arrival and
given whatever treatment was necessary, regardless
of where the money was coming from. If a patient
claims inability to pay, his or her case is referred to
the city and if the claim is found to be justified, the
Community Chest supplies the money to cover all
expenses.
"We are also told that each patient costs the
hospital an average of $5.06 per day. Only a few
rooms, that is the highest priced ones, show a profit,
the rest of the hospital being operated at a loss.
The deficit is made up by the Connnunity Chest.
"Since the Community Chest makes it possible
to give the necessary treatment first anil to think of
the money afterward, we feel that its existence is
justified by this accomplishment alone."

"We visited the Tuberculosis Association of
Rochester, and were cordially received by Miss E.
M. Hendrickson, Executive Secretary, who gave us
a very complete account of the work done by the
Association, and also of what she hoped they would
be able to accomplish this year.
"We found that the work of the Tuberculosis
Association in the first place is 'Prevention' and
we were much impressed by the accomplishment
of the nutrition classes for school children. We
fully believe these classes ought to be in every
school.
"We visited their new work shop at 160 Chestnut
Street, where we found about sixteen patients who,
having been given a prevocational training, were
doing congenial work under a doctor's prescrip-
tion, and under the care of Miss Weiss, whom we
found to be a very energetic and capable supervisor.
"The workshop has been in operation for only a
few months, but already has a splendid start. We
found that the prevocational work was open to
other than tubercular sufferers. An interesting case
was that of an ex-soldier who was given work
obliging him to use his left arm, which he had
not been able to move as a result of a wound.
He is gradually recovering the use of the arm
through the constant movements made necessary
by his work.
"The Tuberculosis Association is supported en-
tirelyby the Community Chest and by the Christ-
mas seal campaign. It received about $27,500.00
from the Chest last year. It hopes to receive more
this year, in order to branch out into a permanent
camp for underweight children, etc. No dues or
fees whatever are charged to any patients.
"We are sure that the work of the Association is as
important as that of any organization in the Chest,
and we hope that it will continue to receive all the
financial help possible."

that a special ward is maintained for free cases.
Apparently everything is done for the patients in the
ward, the only disadvantage being that it is located
in the basement. A better location would help
considerably.
Tt was observed that most of the patients in the
freeward were apparently of foreign extraction.
"We were told that in medical cases, small nominal
charges were made for medicine and that these
charges were cancelled if the patient was unable
to pay. Surgical cases are taken care of imme-
diately, without reference to whether the patient
will be able to pay or not.
"We are of the opinion that the Hospital is worthy
of all the help that the Community Chest can give."

SUGGESTION SYSTEMS
There are probably as many different kinds of
suggestion systems as Solomon had wives. They
are as numerous as the chocolates that Hilda Specht
eats in the short space of a month, or as the cig-
arettes which "Les" Clevenger consumes in a week.
Incidentally, there are very few that can compare
with our own system.
Of course some industrial concerns do not offer
rewards of any kind in return for ideas and they
get just about as many suggestions as you might
expect —
none. Others offer a fi.xed number of
prizes periodically for whatever ideas are turned in,
just as "Bill Schlegel" might set up a certain num-
ber of prizes for the best fox-trotters at one of his
dances. The variations of this plan are manifold,
but the trouble with applying the prize fox-trot
idea to a suggestion system lies in the fact that it
does not fit the award to the value of the suggestion.
"Leight" Young might be satisfied with a stickpin
for dancing the best toddle at the "Masonic"' .some
night, but if you offered him twenty-five dollars
for a ten-thousand-dollar idea he might break that
New Year's resolution and use unkind language.
Though everybody at a dance cant expect to
win a prize, he who submits a worth while idea in a
plant wants recognition for it. If the number of
rewards is limited there isn't much of an incentive
to hand in a small suggestion because the chances
are that enough similar to it have been submitted
to keep it outside the prize money.
Under our system the suggestor is rewarded in
some way or other for every idea that is adopted.
If you hand in a suggestion that is worth a dollar
you will get a dollar, regardless of how many are
submitted through the year. If you hit on a big
GROUP OF COMMITTEES THAT VISITED INSTITUTION;
OF THE COMMUNITY CHEST
idea you may get a hundred or a thousand dollars,
the reward being strictly in proportion to the value
of the suggestion, whether it is one of a hundred or
one of a thousand ad()j)ted throughout the company.
The point is this: the amount you can win is not
limited in any way by the company. If you have
been "outside the prize money" it is simply because
you haven't applied your powers of observation and
initiative to think up winners.
Our sincerest sympathy goes out to Peter Ficarro
of the Sanitary Department, whose wife passed
away on February 27.
Foreman Watts of the Leather Department has
asked us to express his thanks, as well as Mrs.
Watts", for the interest shown by their many friends
during their recent illness.

WHY THE INVESTIGATOR
"Good morning! I came to see how John is."
With these words, or something Hke them, the lady
of the house is handed a "caUing card" which intro-
duces the investigator representing the Camera
Works.
This is a service which is just as helpful to the
family of the employee as it is to the company.
Not only are the visits made to indicate the com-
pany's interest in your sick days as well as your
healthy ones, but there is something about a "home"
visit that brings out the personal friendliness that
exists between the company and the employee,
which, during the hours of work, is necessarily
subordinated to business.
This article is not intended as a booster for
industrial relations work from the company's
standpoint. Rather it is an invitation to you to
take full advantage of the opportunity which it
offers. When an employee, for some known or
unknown reason has been absent for three days,
the investigator calls at his or her place of residence,
not only to ascertain the reason for the absence, but
also to be of service if possible. Sometimes it

lying cause of an illness brought about by worry
over things that might be satisfactorily settled.
Possibly there may be some real or imagined
grievance which requires investigation. These

So when the investigator calls, remember that
he is in a position to help you solve the problems
that are worrying you, providing he knows the
circumstances.

TOOL-MAKER PERFECTS CENTER TESTER

In the Tool Room the other day we saw a neat
littlefolder setting forth the advantages of a center
tester. Knowing what an essential thing it is to
keep an "even balance," we immediately became
curious to find out whether a center tester would
tell us how to strike a happy medium in all things.
After reading the folder, we came to the conclusion
that this device is an undoubted addition to the
mysterious array of tools known as precision
instruments.
The inventor is Harry Brion, one of the boys
who make our Tool Room famous. The device is
used in connection with a patented gauge for trueing
up a prick punch mark either on revolving or sta-
tionary work. It locates the mark exactly at the
center of the revolving spindle on a milling, boring
or drilling machine. Several of these tools are
being u.sed in the plant, and according to all reports,
the invention is a clever and useful one.

CAN YOU BEAT THAT

We imagine "Rapp" is saying "beat that"
according to the energy registered by the move-
ment of his hand as he is depicted thumping the
ace (?) down on the table. Notice the anxious
look in "Ed" Frank's eyes. It almost seems as if

SPRING FASHIONS FOR
Spring fever attacks each of us in a different way.
Some of us show symptoms of baseball; others fish-
ing or gardening or courting, or perhaps, all of them.
Talking of gardening, we of the Camera Works
have had a banner organization since 1915, but last
year the boys from this plant were the only com-
petitors in the field for the industrial cup at the
Rochester Exposition. Of course, we all realize
that the intensive gardening movement received
its impetus from war-time economy and, while it
lasted, hundreds of tons of home-grown produce for
local markets relieved transportation for other uses.
The Secretary of the Recreation Club has a num-
ber of books on "How to Grow a Garden," and will
be pleased to give a copy to the members interested.
A friend of ours recently arrived home with a
substantial purchase of lubricating oil. His wife
was elated to think that "Jim" had at last recognized
the fact that the hinges on the doors, the sewing
machine, and the electric washer needed a spring
oiling. After supper, "Jim" retired to the store room
in the attic, and because of a lengthy absence, his
wife had visions of "Jim" "oiling" upon the contents
of certain dark colored bottles which reposed on the
shelves, supposed to be used for "medicinal pur-
poses only. " Creeping quiet ly upstairs, '"wifey" dis-
covered ''Jim" oiling up in fine shape, not on the
contents of the bottles, but the contents of his

nection with company athletics is somewhat proble-
matical. It was clearly proved last year that a
Kodak League is an expensive proposition, and
that Saturday afternoon at the lake-side is more
attractive than the bleachers. However, base-
ball is baseball, and nothing can take its place in
the hearts of real fans and players. \Miether we
have a shop league is dependent upon what you
fellows want! The Recreation Club is bound by
policy to please its members. If a league is formed,
the Club will reasonably support it, and boost it
for all it's worth.
In regard to occasional departmental games,
picnics, and challenges, balls and clubs will be
loaned to the captains or committees.
No comment is necessary on the following master-

also to the girls. The only hope that the editor has,
is that he will receive in due time announcements

financial success. Whether the athletic
powers will consider it advisable to
continue the League for another year, in
view of past deficits, is a question.
There however, one form of baseball
is,
than the regulation game
far less expensive
to which both fans and players seem to
"cotton" immensely. That is, the indoor
game on the outdoor diamond. Indoor
leagues have been quite the rage at all
the plants in recent years and much
favorable comment has been heard on
the suggestion made in last month's
Magazine that an inter-plant league be
formed to play this game. Noon-hour
games could be staged on the Kodak
Park and Hawk-Eye diamonds, and it is
even possible that Camera Works and
Kodak OflBce could secure joint use of a
T C S
field in the State Street neighborhood.
The chief difficulty with this proposal
seems to be the shortness of time for
playing the game at noon.
Another nebulous prospect on the
athletic horizon is the frequently dis-
cussed Kodak Tennis League. Whether
is the 1922 will bring this activity to a head
remains to be seen.
Golfers in our midst increase in number
year by year, and it has been suggested
that the coming summer should see some
inter-plant matches as well as a company
tournament with trophies for both team
and individual winners. The Editor
will welcome comment from interested
golfers on this proposal.
High average girls and men of the
Kodak Office League met at Elm Hall
on Monday, March 27, in their annual
Inter-League match. The girls were
given a handicap based on the difference
in individual averages, and won by a
margin of 243 pins.

Camera Works baseball team, is playing

 THE KODAK IMAGAZINE
THE IMPORTANCE OF GOOD TEETH
these days of quick-spread knowl-
IXedge, most people have come to some
appreciation of food as the real foundation
for healthand all those advantages that
grow out of normal fimctioning of botiy
organs. There still exists much ignorance
as to the digestive fimction of the teeth.
Most persons continue to think of them
as mere mouth equipment, rather than a
most important part of the stomach
machinery.
"Teeth decayed to such an extent as to
interfere with easy and complete masti-
cation of food material impose such a
burden on the stomach and the intestines
as to seriously weaken these centers of
sustenance, and the deficiencies thus
created have an immediate and damaging
effect on the entire system. So the rela-
tion of the teeth to health and strength is
twofold, doubling the importance of
maintaining mouth efficiency."
The saliva or juice secreted in the
mouth, like the juices in the stomach and
intestines, is most important
in preparing
the food for subseciuent steps in the order
of digestion. Did you ever try it out?
Take, for example, a piece of dry bread.
Stay with it as long as you can— say twenty
—
chews and if, through abuse, you have
not lost your sense of taste see how —
sweet it becomes as mastication goes on.
As a scientific fact, the bread not only
seems sweeter, but actually becomes so by
means of the mashing of the small starch
cells with the teeth, so that the saliva
can get at the starch and convert it into
a form of sugar. In this way the stomach
gets full value out of goods received. You
may buy five ])oiuids of good meat at the
butcher's. He may give you full weight
but you're swindled out of from one to
two-thirds of your money's worth if you
fail to chew it thoroughly.
Get down to brass tacks! AVho wants
to be "taxed" to support the butcher and
baker, yes, and the doctor and the under-
—
taker taxes met with the excess food
bill you pay and still more heavily with
your own worn out machinery, and ill
health. You can't, for example, take a
sewing machine adjusted to stitch two
thicknesses of material and feed it with
eight times tliat amoimt and expect it to
"work."
Take care of what you have and make
the most of it. If it's a clean mouth with
a sound set of teeth, just remember there
is^ no proof that they will stay that way
even with good care, though the better
the care, the better the teeth. If you have
already acquired through negligence or
otherwise, a poor grinding outfit, why
look around you and see what you can do
to "brighten up" that "corner." In any
case, ignorance of a bad condition is no
excuse, nor does it lessen the sufi^ering
that comes when it is too late. Go to an
honest dentist once or twice a year and
"take stock." Remember that a visit
in time sometimes saves nine or so teeth.
Then invest in a medium sized, medium
stifftooth brush with even length bristles.
Before using it, soak two hours or so in a
glass of water in which a half teaspoonful
of borax, boric acid or table salt is dis-
solved. Get a reliable dental paste or
powder, or have a druggist put you up
several months supply of prepared chalk,
orris root and myrrh, flavoretl with i^ep-
permint or wintergreen. This does not
cost as much as many of the much ad-
vertised preparations, and is good.Then
try in your daily living to keep your
mouth cleaner, use the brush and j)<)wder
every morning, and Avithout fail always
before you sleep. The mouth is a splendid
incubator, and the many microbes which
are constantly with us, have full sway at
night, unless we take some precautions.
Not only the surface of each tooth but
the gmns, as well, should be scoured and
scrubbed. If you have teeth that food
catclies between, and the dentist cannot
remedy it. be sure to remove the particles
that collect, before brushing at night.

INSTRUMENT MAKERS BOWL

The Instrument Department broke into
light on April with a howlinjj party at Hafner's
1,
alleys. The affair was scheduled, arranged and
carried out, chiefly, by "Hob" Lehmann, and the
Departjnent was out in force, including Foreman
"Bill" Vaeth.
The bowlers were divided into three teams,
captained by Karl Buehler, Albert Gettner and
George Hilger. Captain Buehler's team won all
Four games. Carl Rode of the same aggregation
piimed the high score of 196, and was asked by his
team-mates, why he had not rolled at the A. B. C.
tournament. Captain Gettner used a very wicked
tlie lime- delivery but could not control it, and as a result,
rolled the low score of the evening.
Although a few of the scores were below cham-
j)ionship calibre, no one was below par in having a
good time. A buffet lunch was .served and, in
general, it was a regular old-fashioned bowling party
with all the fixings. It was the first affair given by
the Instrument Department for a long time, but,
judging by the entertainment which it afforded, it
will not be the last. Report has it that a few of the
instrument makers had to do some diplomatic ex-
plaining for coming home so late, but even the
domestic chidings do not seem to have destroyed
their appetite for another "blow-out" of some kind.

NEW GUIDES OF HAWK-EYE ATHLETIC ASSOCL\TION

Following a recent revision of the by-laws of the
.\ssociation, general election was held, which
a meet monthly with the officers and trustees. It is
resulted in the choice of Lindsay Sondheim of the
Production Department as president, and Claud
Harding, foreman of the Engraving Department,
as vice-president. Robert Meinhard was appointed
secretary-treasurer. The remaining ten in the
above group are trustees, who, together with the
officers, form the Board of Governors of the
Association.
.\ feature of the new by-laws is their provision
for an Advisory Council, consisting of a chosen
representative from each department, which will
expected that, by means of this body, the depart-
mental opinions, desires and complaints, will be
accurately registered, and that, as a consequence,
the Association will afford greater satisfaction and
benefit than ever before. Coupled with the fact
that President "Red" Sondheim is one of the livest
of Hawk-Eye "live" wires, and that his helpers on
the Board are among the strongest that could have
been chosen, it shovild mean a banner year for all of
the Association's activities.

lift in our newest addition, and has run it for three
years without an accident.
WELCOME HOME
Frank Fink had a couple of old-timers come back
to him recently in the persons of Carl ("Willie")
Phillippsen, who spent some thirteen years at Hawk-
Eye, ending in 1917, and John W. Beveridge, who
came to us in 1915 and stayed for about four years.
Both are good workmen and good fellows. Here's
hoping that their stay will be long and pleasant.
We are glad to welcome Martha Sellmayer, fore-
lady of the Cementing Department, who returned
early in April, after an absence of six weeks.
Henry Freitag of the Brass Department, has
practically recovered from a very serious attack of
pneumonia. If you want to know how close a call
it was, ask "Connie" VanLare, who spent a number
of nights at his friend's bedside. We hope that "Hank"
will shortly be in his usual state of robust health.
OLIVER XICOL
Oliver Xicol, a member of the Achromatic Lens
Department for three and a half years, died at his
home on March 17, only seventeen hours after his
brother had passed away. Mr. Nicol's very sudden
death was entirely unexpected, and the shock to his
family correspondingly severe.
He was born in Rochester on February 17, 1865,
and came to us late in 1918, after having spent about
four years at Kodak Park. His first work in Mr.
Snapp's Department was on rough grinding, but he
was later transferred to the polishing, where he
remained until his untimely death. Mr. Nicol's
quiet demeanor and efficient workmanship made
many friends throughout the plant who are bound
to share with his relatives, the grief of his sudden
taking-off. We
extend our sincerest sympathy to
the familv.
ANOTHER GOOD MAN !
Frances S. Pullen of the Centering Department,
surprised her friends on April 6, by announcing her
engagement to Edward R. Van W'icklin. At the
same time the two young people apparently decided
to finish the good work while the spirit moved them,
and were married a few days later, on April 11.
At this writing we have, at best, very meager
details of the occurrence. There are only two things
of which we are sure: That Frances and "Ed"
engineered a very effective surprise, and that Hawk-
Eye extends its best wishes for a long and happy
married life.
ELECTED— ON FIVE COUNTS!
For the Hawk-Eye Hall of Fame, we nominate
Benjamin J. Levine; because he is a conscientious
worker in the Production Department; because, as
left fielder, he has helped Hawk-Eye to win four
baseball championships in two years; because his
"BENNY"
playing at guard was largely instrumental in keeping
Hawk-Eye at the top of the heap in the Kodak
Basketball League last winter; because he swings
a wicked bat on our outdoor-indoor diamond, and,
to cap the climax, because he has recently become
the father of twins.

combined applauding power that was not to be

encore which they demanded. All in all the per-
formance was quite satisfactory.
From the theater, the men betook themselves to

"COLLEGE DAYS"
From grease paint to histrionic talent, tlie requis-
ites of a good show were conspicuously present on the
Lyceum stage at the K. O. R. C. Glee Club presenta-
tion of "College Days."
Despite the fact that the local reporters received
complimentary tickets, all has not yet been said
about the performance. For example, "Jack"
Roberts, as a collegiate fun-maker, acted his filbert
role as if such a thing came natural to him. He
certainly put over the Tom-Cat song with a mighty
"meow".

feature of the show that must have made "Flo"
A in amateur productions, and "Tubby" himself,
Ziegfeld jealous of the producers, could he but have
known of it, was the dazzling array of dainty
damosels forming the chorus. Their singing was
such as no Winter Garden show boasted. Their
repertoire was replete with rollicking rimes, and the
range of their skirts and voices, from ankle-low
contralto tones to high soprano "see," was indeed a
treat to the eyes and ears of the audience.
No small amount of credit for the success of the
performance belongs to the men of the ensemble.
The Bowery accent they added to the "heel, toe and
a-one-two-three" pedal intricacies with which they
accompanied "Dot" and "Davy's" song, "I'm
Willing," will go down in terpsichorean annals as
the inception of a new era. They displayed the
typical careless abandon of the American imder-
graduate in the way they held their partners, in
this special song and chorus number, off at arm's
length. As baseball players, they lent an air of the
southern spring training camps which was undeni-
ably refreshing, and as a cheering, singing collegiate
mob, led by the indomitable "Tuliby, "' they rate

wont to remark.
The evening's histrionic crown of laurels, made
of non-skid slippery elm leaves, rests on tlie brow of

took the part of "Davy," the collegian-hero. From

the first kiss engraved on his sister's cheek to the

—
you know his acting and singing were a source of
pleasure to the entire audience. This, the demand
for encores attested. There was no hint of half-
tone in his full, round tenor voice, and he etched
his lines with clearness and expression.
Marie Mattern as "Dot," the college president's
daughter, played opposite her brother and was
equally well received. Her singing especially called
forth applause and w'as deservedly commented on in
the Post Express as qualifying her as "a soprano
who might easily take prima donna roles in other
than amateur productions."
The stage presence and acting of Helena Foley,
confidante of "Dot" and enamored of "Tubby"
(K. W. Williams) displayed talent rarely witnessed
although his 140 pounds were burlesqued by his
name, certainly mouthed a mean megaphone as
cheer leader.
Edward J. Hilbert and Arthur P.Bartholomew as
villains made Desperate Desmond seem a veritable
piker. Mirabile dictu, they got away with their
parts without the aid of the conventional black
mustache.
Throughout the performance, Frank Foskett
tossed a terrible Phi Beta Kappa key, as president
of Brinkdale College, and he and Adelaide Dark,
as the romantic Dean of Girls, supplied splendid
comedy in their songs.
In presenting "College Days," a three-act
musical comedy by May Hewes Dodge and John
Wilson Dodge, the Glee Club was directed by Mi.ss
Gertrude Ermatinger. David Evans coached the
chorus and principals in their songs, with Frederick
Huber at the piano, while Ross Robertson as
business manager, assisted by Myrtle W. Dalgety,
looked after the business end of the evening's en-
tertainment.
"VERY GOOD— 'EDDIE! "
Edward J. Hilbert is to represent the Billing
Department in the K. O. R. C. as a result of the
recent general election. After accepting the honor
conferred upon him, "Eddie" promised to have this
summer the best picnic ever held by the Billing
Department, (iood enough!
Another thing "Eddie" favors is smokers and
entertainments for the members of his Department,
and if he carries half of liis plans through, the Billers

The pin-hole camera had a capacity of one plate

required a twelve-second exposure in bright sun-

tions, this shutterless camera stirred up "Ben's"
interest in photography, and he hired out to learn
the trade.
As a photographer's apprentice in a once well-
known State Street studio, "Ben" worked for two
months without pay, mopping out, sorting glass
negatives when the shelves that held them fell, and
doing the heavy scene-shifting of head props,
papermache rocks and daisy-field foregrounds, that
comprised the properties of the old-lime photog-

He. too, became interested in photography as an
amateur; so, he made the jump from telegraph

then came to the Paper Testing Department of the
company. During his several years at this work,
he kept up his interest and study of photography
and made a good many pictures, several of them for

—
No, sir you can't keep 'em dowii, that Kodak
Park Soccer Club. Not satisfied with winning
honors in its own field, this bunch is continually
stepping into the limelight of other spheres. For
example, the Soccer Club entered a team in the
Departmental Basketball League last fall, and
stepped right through to the championship. Conse-
quently, a basketball trophy now rests with the
others in their collection.
The Soccerites showed their social skill by [)utting
over one of the most enjoyable dances ever held at
Kodak Park. This function was staged in the
Assembly Hall on Friday evening. April 7, under
the able management of a committee headed by
Chairman "Jack" Brightman. Taylor's orchestra
did the honors.
Our prospects for success in the spring series of
the local Soccer League are even brighter than last
year. Our ]9'21 eleven is almost intact, and we
have signed in addition, two or three other valuable
men. At the season's opening on April 2, six
teams began competition for the perpetual trophy
presented by James McKinley, Sr., president of the
Northwestern New York State Association. This
trophy is a hands(jme oak shield, displaying as a
centerpiece a four-inch soccer ball.

WINTER DANCE SERIES BREAKS RECORDS

The success of the 19'21-22 Dance Series,
imder the auspices of the Kodak Park Athletic
.Vssociation, cannot be measured in terms of dollars,
nor is the numlier who atten<led any criterion, for
on almost every occasion it was neces.sary to turn
people away after the Hall's capacity had l)een
exhausted.
Credit for the uniform success of the various
dances is given, first, to the interest shown by the
various c-liairmen and their conunittees; next, to tlu>
interest and co-oi)eration of the em|)loyees. and
their eagerness to attend; and finally-, to the clever

COMMUNITY NIGHT SERIES ENDED
The sixth and of the series of Community
last
Night entertainments well upheld the successful
record of the previous events. Fully 1,500 em-
ployees and their guests enjoyed a Mell-balanced
bill of high-class vaudeville and dancing. The
following Departments were represented: Main
Office, Testing, Plate, Box, Research Laboratory,
Industrial Economy, Lacquer and Mounting Tissue,
Purchasing, Dining Halls, and men on shift work
who were unable to attend any of the former
entertainments.
George Engelhardt's Kodak Park Octette fea-
tured the evening's program, which included dances
by the famous "Dotson," Ada Roach. Ruth Free-
man, impersonations by Charles P^letcher, and
selections by the Bastianelli orchestra. A Harold
Lloyd comedy concluded the entertainment.
Wilkinson's orchestra played for dancing.
It is doubtful if any other entertainment spon-
sored by the K. P. A. A. has enjoyed such popularity
as did the Community Night series. Every em-
ployee of Kodak Park was given an opportunity to
attend, and bring a guest to one of the parties.
How well the entertainments "took" may be judged
by reviewing the attendance, which totalled over
8,000 for the entire series.
Appreciation is extended to the following
whose services contributed largely to the success
of the Community Night entertainments: Chester
Klipfel, Raymond Fitzpatrick, A. D. Bessey, Mason
McKinney, William Mitchell, Fred Collett, Charles
Midavine, Albert Sperry, Thomas Ryan, Fred

SHARP-SHOOTERS ORGANIZE
Sentiment in favor of the establishment of a rifle
organization culminated in the formation on March
10 of the Kodak Park Rifle Association, with fifteen
charter members. Inasmuch as some forty addi-
tional employees have signified their intention of
joining, it is expected that the organization will
grow very rapidly.
TheAssociation, which will be aflSliated with the
National Rifle Association, will be issued arms,
ammunition, and other supplies by the government.
Plans are under way to secure outdoor and indoor
ranges, the latter to be located at the Park if pos-
sible. Competition in national and international
events is also under consideration.
Haywood G. Dewey of the Engineering Depart-
ment, Building 23, has been elected president,
Henry N. Wood of the Tool Room, secretary, and
Arthur E. Williams, treasurer, of this new Club.
"Art" Williams, chairman, Paul C. Seel, Henry N.
Wood, and Oscar Knell are members of the com-
mittee which was appointed to secure an indoor
range.
Those who wish to join are requested to send
their names to Secretary Wood, Tool Room,
Building 23. There are undoubtedly many mem-
bers of the American Legion at the Park who will
welcome an occasional day on the range, and a
men chance to feel the "kick" of the old "Springfield"
again.
The Emulsion Coating Department off"ers its
sympathy to Charles Nicol on the loss of his two
brothers; to James E. Lee, whose Mother died on
March 13, and to Seward Smith, whose father died
on March 20.

WHERE OUR PROBLEMS ARE
Of course we all know that, in order to maintain
the reputation our company enjoys, the goods must
not only look- right; they must he right. Tiiis is
where the "Lab" begins to function.
To the layman, a laboratory is a puzzling place.
Few things are more conducive to curiosity than
scientific instruments, various weird-shaj)ed tubes
and retorts, cabinets and containers resembling

and all the seeming disorrlerly array of bric-a-brac
which is indispensable in a chemical laboratory.
One feels an overwhelming desire to ask, "What's
or "How does that work?"
this for.^" For instance,
we noticed an electric oven wherein were several
small dark-brown objects which looked like Mrs.
Xewlywed"s first attempt at making doughnuts.
These objects proved to be samples of leather,
which, by some uncanny process were being aged
at the rate of twenty months in five hours.
Garson Meyer, in charge of the "Lab,"" received
his degree as Bachelor of Science from the Univer-
sity of Rochester, and also studied at Cornell.
During the war he had charge of a .section connected
with the Chemical Warfare Service, Naval Aviation.
Research is evidently his forte. Such work as
treating metals against corrosion, compounding
formulae for true-black colors, and substituting
dry adhesives for hot liquid glue are only some of
the functions of the Laboratory. This Department
might well be styled a "Development and ("hemical
Service "" inasmuch as Garson devotes the greater
part of his time to research work. He holds fre-
quent consultations with department heads with a

growing appreciation of the fact that almost

view to solving the technical difficulties which
hamper production.
We have neither the technical knowledge nor the
space to enumerate the various tests to which
.SOLVED
camera parts are subjected. Our chief problems
are with the glue, leather or composition, and dyes.
Because of the scarcity of high-grade leather it
was found advisable to use a substitute on certain
types of cameras. Of course many experiments
had to be worked out l)ef'ore the new covering could
be used. Consider the fact that a Kodak or Brownie
has to be adapted for arctic, tropical, and temperate
climates and you will realize the varying elemental
conditions a camera has to face.
You may have seen the leather literally covered
with "goose-pimples."" This is caused by an acid
in the glue which corrodes the aluminum base.
Again, the bellows sometimes evince a tendency
to split in the creases, under certain conditions.
These taxed the ingenuity of the Laboratory. Fast
dyes, or rather, the scarcity of them, is another
subject for investigation, as the action of light
causes certain so-callcfl black pigments to, in
time, assume a neutral shade of greenish-gray.
While, of course, our Laboratory does not
compare in size with the similar department at
Kodak Park, our chemist, having received a large
part of his training at our "big sister"" plant, has
great hcjpes of further flevelopment along these
lines. \ small department has already been estab-
lished to examine and test raw materials for uni-
formity and dependability.
Just as our efficient Meriical Department is what
might be termed a "health clearing house,"' so our
Research Laboratory might be called a "curing"'
place for the "ills of production," for that is just
the work it accomplishes.
