MTJSCATINE JOURNAL AND NEWS-TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JUNE Swift Company Notes Founding Started by Gustavus Franklin Swift With Capital of $20. Meat dealers, live stock prc- "ducers and others acquainted witii the growth of meat packing are recalling this week the romantic of the development of Swift and company. The occasion is the nationwide celebration of the fiftieth anlveraary of company's incorporation. Gustavus Franklin Swift, founder, started In business for himself with a total capital ot 520 when he 16 years old. That was in 1855.

He paid 519 for a neighbor's heifer, dressed, it himself and sold the meat in his little home town on Cape Cod. Just 20 years later, in 1875, G. F. Swift reached Chicago a successful retailer, exporter and cattle buyer. Still young, ambitious and a bitter foe of waste, he saw nothing but waste in the operations of the meat and live stock Industry of that day.

He had faith in refrigeration as the solution ot vexing problem of bridging the average gap of nearly a thousand miles between live stock producing centers of the wesi and the populous consuming centers east. A similar development occurred 'in dairying and poultry. Thirty years ago more than "0 per cent of the butter manufactured in the United States was made on farms, compared to about 30 per cent today. Present methods of handling cream and butter were almost unknown 30 years ago. The product had little uniformity.

Not so today, with creameries everywhere grading. testing, pasteurizing and chum- 'ing the farmer's cream into uniform grades of butter. The JIuscatine plant of Swift and company has been among the most progressive in advancing 'standards, applying new improved methods developed in Swift's research laboratories, and in working with farmers to improve quality and thereby increase tae financial return to the farmer.

School Teacher Files for Wages Miss Geneva Childs Sues in Rock Island County Court Against Board. Buffalo Prairie Miss Geneva Childs, high school instructor, has filed suit in the Rock Island county circuit court seeking to recover wages under a contract as a teacher in the Reynolds high school. The board of education is named defendant in the suit filed by Isadpr I. Katz. Miss Childs was discharged as teacher on March '22, and is asking compensation until May 27, the end of the school year.

She charges that no complaints were made against her and that she was granted no hearing before the board. A clause in compensation in the- contract will be the key point in the case. In February the board served a dismissal notice on Miss Childs under a 30 day termination clause and later second notice was served setting up a charge of incomp- etency as the grounds for dismissal and the 30 day termination provision. She was on a salary rate of $115 per month and reported daily after the serving of the notice although another teacher had been assigned to fill her place. Mrs.
