The Origin and
Operation of
Skaggs Stores
Uncle Eben, mythical darky
philosopher, is quoted as hav
ing aaid "When a man says he
ain't got no enemies he's either
an awful liar or else he ain't
never done nothln' wuth no
tictu'." On another occasion
the same ebony sage is sup
posed to have remarked that
"Any time yo sticks yo hald
above de tall grass somebody's
gwlue to bounce a rock often
it." Both ot which observa
tions whether or not they are
authentic, are literally wud fig
uratively true.
Frequently the perfectly ob
vious is the roost difficult thing
to see and It la human nature
to like to weave a web ot mys
tery about outstanding euo
ceascs despite the fact that a
few simple, properly directed
questtous might dispel the mys
tery at any time. Particularly
tn the case ot unusually suo
cossrul commercial enterprises
there are always those whose
concept or their own self-interest
prompts them to create aud
circulate rumors and whisper
ings that are less than half
truths or wholly false. No
large concern is Immune from
such attacks and the question
of "Who Owns bkaggs Stores t"
has been the subject of much
iole speculation and false re
port. ;
Skartrs stores are owned
solely by the men who are ac
tively engaged in their opera
tion four Skaggs brothers,
and the executive heads among
the employees who have reach
ed certain positions and met
certain requirements. Not a
dollar earned outside Is or ever
has been invested in this con
cern since its incorporation,
nor are there any outstanding
bonas, notes Jr preterm, stock
(which is but another way at
burrowing money) and aot a
single share ot common stock
has ever been soli to anyone
outside the organisation.
As the second Skaggs store
was financed from the earnings
of the first store, so have suc
ceeding stores been financed
from the profits ot the stores
that preceded them. No stock
In tkagga (tors has ever been
offered the publle or listed on
any stock exchange for the rea.
son that the heads of his firm
regard all chain store stocks
as highly speculative, and de
pendent tor their earnings en
tirely upon the ability and
spirit of the management and
organisation back ot them. To
build a closely knit organisa
tion such as ours. ONE in
niiud. purpose, and effort, re
quires considerable time and
more-than-ordlnary understand
ing of the variable and human
elements Involved. And yet,
without such an organisation,
the ultimate success of any
chain stores' venture la at least
questionable, therefore, in the
beginning we did not invite or
permit the publle to risk its
money with us. and later, an
the principle that a true ser
vant is worthy of hi hire, pro
fits have gone to the producers
thereof, aud. in direct ratio to
their efforts and ability: '
Borne years after the open
ing of the first Skaggs store
certain of the older personnel
had accumulated various
amounts of money which rep
resented their savings since
coming with the organisation.
This money they desired to in
vest in the company, and, since
the heads of the concern bad
always believed that each auta
was entitled to participate in
the profits to the full extent
of his personal efforts, and the -firm
was then well established
and on its way to success, ar
rangements were made to per
mit these men to buy such
amuunta of stock Is the cor
poration as could be paid for
strictly oat ot funds accumulat
ed while In the employ of the
company. No money from out
side sources was permitted to
be used in the purchase of
stock, and only amounts in ex
cess of annual earnings ot .
f 1600.00 were accepted, sine,
it waa considered that 11600.00
a year was the minimum
amount on which a man with
family could Uve deceutly.
The money thua invested by
employees waa used for fur
ther expansion, to Increase
earning, and care for the lav
coming personnel who were
rapidly developing to manag
erial capacity. Since that time,
once each year, the various
executives who can meet the
other requirements are offer
ed the privilege of purchasing
stock on the above basis a
privilege ot which they oan
avail themselves or not, as they
aee fit, since the purchase ot
stock in the company la In no,
way a condition ot their em-!
ployment, but rather, one ot
the Derogative thereof.
For this reason, whenever '
you meet and deal with one ot
the managers of the more than
300 widely scattered Skaggs
stores, you have almost inva
riably com Into contact with

sonal and financial interest
