Housewarming Edition WINNETKA TALK March 3, 1928 We are glad of this opportunity to extend our Best Wishes A. W. HALL COMPANY Manufacturers of Hand Folding Machines and Bundling Presses 216 N. CLINTON STREET CHICAGO PLANT IS ROCK SOLID P. R. Burton, Superintendent of Construction Who Has Wide Experience Praises Building . R. BURTON, superintendent of construction for the James Wig- ginton company, was present during the months when the Lloyd Hollis- ter Inc, building was being con- structed. That he was "on the job" is evidenced by the results, for the construction work turned out letter perfect. Mr. Bur- ton paid particular attention to the concrete, brick and sash work a n d says that in that capacity he found it necessary to watch the other work in order to make the Hollister Building a "real job." "The Hollister building is as fine as any I have had supervision over on P. R. Burton the north shore," he says. "It is the most solid building that can be built, that being due to the strong founda- tion." Mr. Burton has had a wide expe- rience in his capacity. In 1919 after he returned to this country after a wartime session in France he was sent to Buenos Aires, Argentine, by the John S. Metcalf International Con- struction company to superintend the reinforced concrete work on a num- ber of huge grain elevators. This work kept him in South America for five years. When he returned to this country in 1924 he located in Evans- ton, where he still resides. Charles E. Hotze Manager of Busy Business Office Charles E. Hotze is the man behind the gun in the business office. In his capacity as manager he finds much to do in auditing, collecting and as pay- master. It is a busy office at all times and in addition to Mr. Hotze there are three girls, a man and an office boy. One girl handles the switchboard, which carries six trunk lines for in- coming calls. to Congratulations 7 HE Members of the Glencoe Chamber of Commerce are happy to congratulate Lloyd Hollister Inc., Publishers of the GLENCOE NEWS, upon the Formal Opening of their new Industrial Home. May you continue to enjoy unbounded success. Glencoe Chamber of Commerce ) LLOYD HOLLISTER INC. 136.000 BRICKS NEEDED IN BUILDING BIG PLANT James Wigginton Gives Surpris- ing Statistics on Materials Required in Construction HIS is a story of figures, but un- like most "figure stories" which make dry reading this one is mighty interesting, because it shows how a surprisingly large amount of brick, cement and other material was re- quired to build the new Lloyd Hol- lister Inc., plant. James Wigginton of Evanston, who had the brick, rein- forced concrete and cut stone contract, gives the figures. To build a plant of the type of the Hollister building it was necessary to place thirty-six thousand face brick; eighty thousand common brick and twenty thousand hollow brick. The hollow brick was used on the interior walls to retard dampness coming through the walls. About one thousand feet of cut stone was used in the "trim." Fifteen hundred barrels of Atlas cement were required, while sixty tons of rein- forced steel went into the concrete. Thirteen hundred yards of gravel and sand were used. In addition to this a large quantity of insulating material was used in the concrete roof. And of importance, too, are these figures: Three carloads of lumber were used for the forms for the concrete. There is another interesting item in connection with the Wiggintons. Three generations of Wiggintons were active in the mason work, and all are named James. James, the elder, is in his eightieth year, another James in his fifties and the third in the twenties. George Kramer In Charge of Bindery Department The man in charge of the bindery at Lloyd Hollister Inc., plant is George Kramer. It is up to Mr. Kramer to see that the cutters, folders and the stitcher operate efficiently and neatly. There is a point of interest in the fact that ten men work on the sta- tions of the stitching machine at the same time. The cutters and folders are watched carefully by Mr. Kramer and that alertness results in the clean work turned out. Lloyd Hollister Inc. Your new plant merits our praise, We extend our compliments.
