SHOP SURROUNDINGS

Employees ef Plant Combining Beautyand Commercialism-

The appearance of many towns andcities is spoiled by unkempt surround ¬

ings of business sites and seldom isany attempt made to Improve andbeautify these places The plan isbeing tried in Brooklyn N L how ¬

ever to interest the employees of acompany In Improvement work andthe story of how an esprit de corpscame to replace a dont care feeling inthe personnel of one of the largest sin¬

gle traction concerns In the country isan interesting one

Some time ago the Brooklyn RapidTransit company adopted a policy ofbeautifying as far as possible the dif¬

ferent portions of its property It wasa pet Idea of Mr Winter its presi-dent

¬

that the mere fact that a struc ¬

ture is built for commercial purposesis no excuse for its being hideously

uglyThis was quite a reversal of old tra¬

ditions but it has already gone partlyinto effect The great new Wllllamsburg power station is the companysmost striking exposition of this newpolicy

Beginning was made at the construc¬

tion shop of the elevated lines at thefoot of Thirtyninth street The yardthat surrounds this shopformerly apassenger terminal stationwas clean ¬

ed of the litter of old locomotives anddiscarded coaches These were soldwhen possible and given away for fire ¬

wood In other casesLast spring the shop foremen were

informed that the railroad would pro-ceed to lay out the edge of the yardwith grass plots and flower beds Sim ¬

liar steps were taken at the other ele-

vated¬

shops at East New York FreshPond road and at Thirtysixth streetThe same methods of decorat on thatproved so successful oh the companysproperty at Brighton Beach were puthi effect

Then came the surprising part of theprogramme Shopmen displayed anastonishing amount of interest in theplans for beautifying tile propertyThey organized mtoxband ajad earlyon summer nights reported after hoursfor work on the shop grounds Theirswas entirely a voluntary procedureThey showed an interest in the wholqproject It was a new spirit showingItself

Nor was that all The men fromlatheand plane and drill press workedalongside the laborers and then theygot together with the shop foremenand made a new proposal

Lets buy big flags big fine Amer¬

ican flagsto float over every shop ofthis company and show folks whenthey go riding by that there are goodAmericans working under the roofs

So the big movement started Themen all wanted i to BUbscribo =nickel ii

dimes andckn occasional quarter werothe order of the day and when theywere done theiorementoppeAVoff thelist for the big flags The railroadcompany put up high steel poles andlnpaallEvery elevatedshoflagPas regilaYlp es a iniliteiT pests Out atthe newest shop in Fresh Pond roadthe transportation men watche thebig pole and flag of the shopmenascend So the guards motormen andconductors ofthe trains running therebought a flag and had the Companyerect a second steel pole for their flapOther plans of the seine sort areunderway I

The MendicantThere are those who ascribe the

word mendicant to the silly appella-tion put forth as a conuudrum mean-ing

¬

a poor wretch beyond the pt> wer ofmending But something very close tothe term was In use as long ago aswhen Chaucer wrote his CanterburyTales In the Sompnoures Talethis occursTherefore we mendlants we sely frerenBen wedded to poverte and continenceTo charjtee humblesse and abstinence

etcThe sompnoure of Chaucer was of

course a summoner or apparitor anda person of low estate and here wehave it Is believed the origin of theword which came into common em-ployment
