Marquardt, assistant vice-president of the First Trust and Savings bank of Chicago, and who resides in Wilmette at 218 Woodbine avenue, spoke of the Cates all the settings for: Theater increasing value to modern industry Guild productions Yoo Bren "whe of personnel studies, "man-analysis, cocahed. the "Wooden 'Kimono. a job-analysis, and the bringing of the s right man and the right job together." Important in this connection, he said, was the fact that "putting square pegs in square holes and leaving them there had been found inadequate." He emphasized the need of personnel studies in large organizations employ- ing great numbers of men and women. In such concerns employers and em- ployes cannot really come to know one another with any satisfactory degree of intimacy. Therefore formal analysis must be made and kept on file to serve as a basis for maintaining and pro- moting the business. In his address Mr. Marquardt out- lined the methods used in the bank of which he is an officer. Those in charge of the personnel management set up occupational analysis and classi- fications, more popularly known as "job ratings." These ratings include (1) descriptions of the duties of the various positions; (2) a review and analysis of these descriptions: (3) a comparative and critical analysis by the personnel committee. Fach individual employe was rated on 14 points: gen- eral suitability, accuracy, neatness of work, regularity of attendance, ap- pearance, application, speed, knowledge of work, personality, co-operation, in- telligence, initiative, directing, ability, and organization ability. Not only has it been found neces- sary to make and keep for ready ref- erence these individual studies but it has been found equally necessary to hold at regular stated intervals meet- ings of employes where they are en- couraged to make suggestions and present their problems and where the officers may talk intimately with the employes on matters relating to effi- ciency, service, and the like, In closing Mr. Marquardt laid stress on the fact that "men, not money, make a bank," and that satisfied work- ers produce the highest morale. Dodge Brothers Display New Standard Six Models After over twec years of intensive development work, Dodge Brothers, Inc., this week officially announced the Standard Six line of passenger cars, priced from $875 to $970. In this new car, it is claimed, exceptional riding comfort, economical performance and ability to travel at sustained high speeds have been combined with the sturdiness and dependability for which Dodge Brothers motor cars have al- ways been so well known. The new cars are displayed in the salesroom of the Wersted Motor com- pany at 562 Lincoln avenue, Winnetka. The factory is now building the Standard Six in four body types, the coupe, sedan, deluxe sedan and cab- riolet, finished in a number of differ- ent attractive color combinations. Production of the new sixes is now 1,000 per day and Dodge Brothers schedules call for total output of all types exceeding 1650 per day, the larg- est production schedule in Dodge Brothers history. The sweeping graceful lines of the Standard Six give the impression of cars selling at much higher prices. Al- though the overall height is low ade- quate headroom is provided. High seat backs and wide cushions, both tilted at the correct angle, insure the comfort of the passengers.
