Moving Spirit in Mer-
win St. Factory Man

' With Ideal --- Wants
Workers Satisfied

.VISIT TO ‘PLACE‘

Each Room Planned So
That Employee Have
Cheerful Surround-

 

ings—Social Club .

 

Mordecai N. Mnyehofl. of 31 West
avenue, is a man with an ideal. Like
Henry Ford. he believes that a. per-
son should make a. comfortable liv-
ing under conditions which make
work a pleasure. In other words. he
feels that the worker while in I.
factory should not feel that he or
she in behind prison barn wnlting for
the whistle to blow for release. but
that conditions should be so attrac—
tive that the worker enjoys his or
her surroundings and mks.

On this ideal is built the M. N.
Mayehoit Company. located at. 15
Merwln street and this plant. better
known as the House of Moyehoii’.
shows the result of Mr. Mayehoirs
determination to better conditions
which surround the worker.

"The worker can do his best. only
when he or she is in pleasant our-
roundlngs." declares Mr. Mayehoa.
"Happy and contented workers
means efficiency."

Let us visit the House of Moyehoi!
and see for ourselves how Mr. Maye-
hoff has endeavored to fulfill his
ideal. \Vc reach a. red brick build-
ing looking like a magnificent resi-
dcncc with fresh green lawns in
front; with rose bushes climbing‘on
green lattice-work and with flower
beds of Jonquils, narciuul and tu-
lips.
. But this isn't a factory? It is.
It is the House of Maychoif and in
the physical aspect of the outside of
the plant is found the ilrst applica-
tion of tho idealism of Mr. Maye—
hofl'.

Let us enter the offices
plant on the ground floor.
a room'eqnipped 'Wit'h light oak
furniture. The bnrcneso which so
often characterizes the appearance
of a. business office is dispelled by
potted plants and pictures. The
room is light' and airy. sunshine
pours through the large windows.
Thisis the second application of Mr.
Moyehofrs ideal of business with a
soul.

To the cheerful staccato of type-
writer worked by young women. we
proceed up the main entrance hlll
to the dining room. in tho rear of
which is'o. fully equipped kitchen.
And here is the third applicuion of
idealism; real food for factory
workers served on a cost basis. And
this dining room is also used as I
dance ball by the Social league to
which practically all of the employee
belong. Many a. happy factory party
has been staged in this room. At
noontimc. too. the girls enjoy danc-
ing' in this room. At one end of the
hall is a stage which is used for
dramatic presentations.

That the principles which Mr.
May-chef: uses in the operation of
the plant are appreciated by the
employee are shown in the locker
room. This is located off the main
entrance hall. During the seven
years the plant has been in existence
practically never has anything been
reported mining from «the lockers
although none of them has a door!

But now let us trace the recess
under which the exquisite on beau-
tiful dresses and garments made by
the M. N. Msyehoi! company are
turned out. “’e shall start at the
beginning by proceeding to the west
wing of the building on the mond
floor. “‘0 come to an interesting
room which looks like a studio; with
walls of tan. a. tan rug on the floor.
blue velvet. curtains at the window
and a long mirror on one wall. On
either side of this mirror attached
to the ironic are three large candles.
Hanging '61: the wall. on either side.
is a. large purple pennant. on Which
are the words. “Social League" in
gold letters. A tall floor lump. 1
smaller lamp and a ceiling lamp. all
with artistic parchment shades. sup-
ply artificial light in the room when
it is needed.

This is the designing room. the
room in which the designer. Mr.
Moore turns out the designs which
later create gaps of delight from
My Lady of Fifth avenue. Scattered
hero and there in the room are wa-
ter paintings. sketches and photo~
graphs. some of the designs which
have been created in this room.

The next room. Here We find the
drapers with sharp. snapping shears
making the first patterns for the
dresses. These patterns must be
worked out in lawn and tested and
approved before they reach the mur-
ket. These first dresses Wused u
salesmen's samples. Before a sam-
ple is released. however. it and the
pattern go to the drafting room
where it is drafted into various sizes.

\Ve move into another room on
this same floor and are in the grad-
ing room. a. part or the drafting de-
partment. It is in this room the de-
tailed instructiond are made out for
the operators to follow. These ln~
structions are sent with the pattern
and lawn sample to the cutting room
on the third floor.

A «long click! It is the sharp knives
being run around theredges of the
patterns. with remarkable rapidity.
We are in the cutting room. I. room
tilled with long tables on which the
material is spread gut and cut.
Therein one thing- in puticulnr
which we notice. The patterns are
made of stiff brown paper. not the
light ‘tissue pint! of which ordinary
pattern- aro made. ,

The patterns are held down over
the material by heavy lend weights.
All test as a. dress is cut. the pieces
are tied up in abundie and sent to
the work room.

What a. place! The room used as
a. stock room. A roomdn‘which Mia.
lady would delight in using 0mm.
rolls and rolls of beautiful ~materiall “
used inmaking drones. ' ‘ ‘

that make Mr. Mayehoit feel proud

Billy had come back to the cane

Of course the officers were too
afraid of displacing their superior

such an ugly temper that he might
order them shot simply for disagree~
