He also received a carload of autos, making his fifth this spring .. . George Barrett, the hust- ling young clerk in J. W. Mar- aon's store and Miss Ora Old- ham, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm.

Secrecy In Krupp's-Employees bound by oath and Nothing Left To Chance-One of the first steps that a new employee at Krupp's (the famous gun and armor fac- tory of Germany) has to take is to bind himself to absolute secrecy as to what he sees or hears in the firm. But, this oath notwithstand- ing, nothing is left to chance, for every precaution is taken to prev- 'ent the employee from knowing anything more than is required for his own immediate work. In the offices all correspondonce passes in locked cases. One official forwarding such a case to another writes the name of the addressee on a slip of paper, which is insert- ed under a glass frame ingenious- ly mounted in the case. Only on opening the case with its special key can the address be removed, and it is therefore impossible for papers of importance to fall into wrong hands. In the drawing of- fices every scrap of paper is locked at night into fireproof and burglar- proof safes, fitted with time locks. The employees have to change their clothes before entering nnd after leaving the office, and they take their meals in the works in the dining hall. In cases where the secrets of the firm are inevitably shared by employees Krupp's pays salaries such as would make any attempt at bribery ineffective. This is more particularly to the men in charge of armor plate and steel manufacturing process - U. S. Army Naval Journal. (Note -- Could this have been part of the preparation for War I? . . . .
