M'hile this conipanys plant in Roek- ' ville Centre has tx'en open only eight , months, it has by its faii-ness, honest dealings, and by making good to every ^ promise, gained the respect and ccm- fidence of the community and the ! good will of its employees. ! The Nassau County Review, in I recent issue, has this to say:
"The Kayser Glove people at Rock¬ ville Centie are advertising for ad¬ ditional help. We have found these people to be reliable in their busi¬ ness dealings and are glad they are building up a good business in our community. "
The plant of Julius Kayser & (^o. at Rockville Centre has ann'm been altered to provide additional space for its fast growing force of work¬ ers. Every means for congenial work¬ ing conditions has been provided. -Natural light is provided by win¬ dows on all sides of their building: the interior is decorated entirely in while and kept spotlessly clean. In addition a rest room and dining room have been pro\ided.

The girls at the Kayser plant aver¬ age nearly .512 a week, although some are earning as much as |18 per week, and when it is remembered that none of the girls have worked there over eight months, the opportunity is ex¬ cellent.
The welfare work of this company also deserves considerable mention. In addition to its other activities, this company has a farm for it.s em¬ ployees adjoining the plant, and while it offers outdoor recreation for its employees, the cause is much nob¬ ler, as the proceeds are intended for Ihe local Red Cross.
