During the afternoon the world's champion baseball game was called on account of rain after the twenty-third inning, the score standing 44 to 43. Rain checks were issued which were good for a first-class lunch and for as many dances as there were partners the rest of the evening. A high grade musical entertainment was a part of the occasion, at which solos were rendered both by mem¬ bers of the club and others. Special closed carriages were provided to convey the guests to the station and a special train took them home. The Choral Society at large and their guests in par¬ ticular were enthusiastic in their comments upon the entertainment providad for them and forthe hospitality shown by Mr. and Mrs. Reay. McCORMlCK FOREMEN'S CLUB ENJOY THIRD ANNUAL OUTING Saturday, July 27, was the day set for the outing to Elliott's Park under the auspices of the McCormick Foremen's Club, and the crowd responded to the fine weather and the attractions held out in the program. On account of the production demands, the big works was under full steam several hours at night for the week preceding, in order to have the Saturday holiday.

There were two games of baseball, bowling contests for men and women, races for boys and girls, young men and young women, fat men, married men, fore¬ men (either fat, thin, married or single), and the crown¬ ing feature of the day was the successful balloon ascension at four o'clock. There were five special trains each way, the first starting at nine in the morning and the last returning at eight thirty in the evening. On the grounds there were a dozen or more attractions besides the program numbers to afford amusement and help make a "red letter day." Music was furnished by Bredfield's Chicago Concert Band, and refreshments were to be had, although wise picnic goers carried generous lunch baskets with them. The hospital tent was popular because of the two genial doctors and the ever welcome nurses, but there were few calls for service and no accidents to mar the day. The tickets were thirty-five cents for adults, children free, and the way the families turned out to enjoy the day was a satisfaction to everybody from the superin¬ tendent to the smallest office boy, and the always re¬ sponsible A'elly got them safely out and home again. An outing to remember till next year's "summer time." HAMILTON PICNIC BIG CROWD HAD ENJOYABLE OUTING AT FALLS ON SATURDAY The International Harvester Company employes held their fifth annual picnic to Niagara Falls on Sat¬ urday, August 3, and carried down about 1,500 passen¬ gers. Ideal weather prevailed and one and all had a pleasant outing. It may be considered a red letter day for the employes, and certainly the largest picnic in the history of the Company since its inception here in Hamilton. The games began immediately upon arrival at the park, starting with a soft ball tournament, consisting of two games and a final, which was won by the ware¬ house from the manufacturing department, by a score of 8 to 6. Messrs. Furry and Cook officiated in National league style. The summary of the races was as follows: 100 yards, championship of works —A. Kehoe, O. Smith, J. Bentley. Time 10 seconds.

Description | Harvester World magazine was first published by International Harvester Company in October of 1909. From 1909 to 1946, Harvester World functioned primarily as an employee magazine, carrying news from various factories, branch houses and dealerships around the world. The magazine included biographical sketches of employees; notices of retirements and promotions; announcements regarding new company initiatives or building projects; and a variety of other news relating to nearly every facet of the company’s world wide operations. The magazine was published by the company’s Advertising Department, and also functioned as a way for headquarters to communicate with dealerships. In 1946, the magazine was redesigned and eventually shifted from an employee magazine to a more customer-oriented focus. By the 1950s, most Harvester Articles were human interest stories centering on the people and organizations who used International Harvester products. At the same time, photography became an increasingly important element in the content and presentation of the magazine. The magazine was discontinued in 1969. |
