Moore, director of the forum, announced. The A. Nash company has been con- ducted for six years on the basis of an earnest application of the golden rule to the relations of the company with its employes. The policies of the company, the wage scale, hours of labor and other fundamental affairs have been decided by the workers in co-operation with the management. The business has grown from a small shop to an immense plant now doing upwards of $6,000,000 worth of business a year--all in six years' experience. A short time ago Mr. Nash asked his employes to join the trade union and will tell why he did this, giving also the history of his company's ex- periment with the golden rule, under the subject, "Why I Asked My Em- ployes to Join the Union." The ad- dress will be followed by the question period with its usual stirring and in- teresting features. The Forum meets in the Olympic theatre, Randolph and Clark streets, Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. EXHIBITS MINIATURES Mrs. Kate Bacon Bond of 899 Ash street, painter of portrait miniatures, gave a delightful "Talk on Miniatures" last Saturday afternoon before ihe members of the Matheon club at the home of the Misses Bishop of Oak Park. Mrs. Bond had on exhibition about 12 or 15 of her beautiful min- jatures which were loaned for this talk. Mrs. Theodore Coyne of Win- netka is program chairman for the Matheon club. As an unusually interesting contribu- | Chicago | Ford Products Output Highest In Its History From the standpoint of the total number of "units" sold, and this in- cludes cars and truck figures as well as tractors and Lincolns, the Ford Mo- tor company, during 1925, established the highest output mark that has ever been set at any time in the history of the company, according to R. D. Cun- ningham, local dealer. Although actual car and truck figures, due to the curtailment of pro- duction at the time of the introduction of new models, for the United States plants, barely approximated those of one year ago, so great was the jump in tractors and other units that it brought the combined figures to a rec- ord. According to the official statistics of the company, there were 1,775,245 cars and trucks turned out by the Ford plants throughout the United States Added to this was the record smashing production of all the foreign plants of the Ford Motor company, which to- taled 136,461 cars and trucks. Adding to this the total of the Canadian plant there was a grand total of 1,990,995 Ford trucks and cars sold during 1925. Surveying the production history of the Ford Motor company for the last five years it is found that almost ex- actly twice as many cars and trucks were turned out by the Canadian and United States plants in 1925 than in 1921. The foreign expansion has been more rapid however and in the same period has more than trebled. Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel I.
