Fellow Employees: There is a certain quality in some people which makes them a good team member whether it be at play or in th e workshop. This quality is usually inherent in a Winner. In a football game, th e coach would call it " team spirit." On the school campus, th e student or professor refers to it as "school pride." Jn th e armed services, the soldier or sailor expresses it as a phrase called "esprit de Corps." But in this work-a-day world, it is merely called " loyalty." On the wall in Mutt Barr's office is a plaque containing these famous words by Elbert Hubbard: "If you work for a man, in heaven's name work for him; Speak well of him and stand by the institution he represents. Remember, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of clever- ness. If you must growl, condemn and enternally find fault, why­ re ign your position. And when you are outside, damn to your heart's content­ But as long as you are part of the institution do not con­ demn it. If you do, the first high wind that comes along will blow you away and probably yo u will never know why." I don't believe there is another quality more important to the success of an organization than the loyalty of its employees.
