Orr, Secretary of the La Salle Engraving Company, who handles all the engravings for Lloyd Hollister Inc. The Hollister magazines are a good example of what we mean by cooperationor team work. · Team work is important in our business because it is so closely tied up with print. ing. advertising, photography and art work. That is why we say, "Let's talk things over." You can save time and money by calling Lea Orr in before your art work is started. That's the time to talk things over with ·· " the other men who will work on the job. Then we will all learn what is expected of each of us and you can take advantage of all of our time and money saving suggestions. N responclina' to the demand for commercial printing Lloyd Hollister Inc., has become a big customer of the paper companies. Among those who furnish paper for this type of work is the Whitaker Paper company of Chicago. When we find the stock in our paper cabinets diminishing, ·a call to the Whitaker company quickly resuits in fresh stock. The volume of coll}mercial business is perhaps best indicated by the figures for last year, which show that the· Whitaker company furnished us with 460,000 envelopes, 26,a10 sheets of bristol and cardboard, 5,500 pounds of book paper, 3,700 pounds of bond paper and 2,100 pounds of miscellany. That is quite an order and tells part of the story of why this _publishing company was forced to budd a !lew plant, install more and better machmes and add equipment to a material degree. The call for commercial work continues and expansion has placed Lloyd Hollister Inc., in a position to meet the .d~nd with speed and efficiency.

These figures appear colossal, but present indications are that they will appear small by the time the end of the present year rolls around because of the expansi'?n o~ Hollistc:r Inc. a~d the accompanYJng mcrease 10 the . s1ze of the weekly Newspaper-Magazmes. Hollister Inc. has given much consideration to the matter of paper selection with the result that an old line company, sixty years old, and which is recognized as the world's largest manufacturer of book paper is supplying us with paper. This com~any has a daily output of 10) tons. This is possible because it has seventeen mills in Eastern states.
