Ten Cents a Meal
Ten cents is a small price for a
meal, and the price seems ri
diculously low, but this is above
the average price paid by the
employes of the Southwestern
Telegraph & Telephone Company
at the Little Rock exchange. A
cafeteria is maintained in the
telephone building. The com
pany supplies the rooms, the
ranges and furniture, also the
chef and assistants. Only the
actual cost of the food is charged
against the employes of the of
fice. Vegetables are supplied at
a cost of from one to five cents,
and meats are served at five
cents.
All funds derived from the
cafeteria are placed in the com
pany’s keeping, and at the end
of the year a dividend is declared.
The money is usually voted for
refreshments at the annual p,-c
nic given by the employes, which
usually takes place on -July 4, at
some park near Little Rock. As
most places are closed on this day
there are fewer telephone calls
and more of the operators can be
excused then than on any other
day of the year. It is so arrang
ed that practically all of the em
ployes can have at least a por
tion of the day at the picnic, and
the fact that all refreshments
are paid for without subscription,
adds to the pleasure of the event.
