HIS is a story of figures, but unlike most "figure stories" which T make dry reading this one is mighty interesting, because it shows ho'! a surprisingly large amount. of bnck, cement and other materaal was reqtaired to build the new Lloyd Hollister Inc., plant. James Wigginton .of Evanston, who had the brick, rean~ forced concrete and cut stone contract, gives the figures. To build a pla!!t of the type of the Hollister building it was necessary to place thirty-six thousand face brick; eightv thousand common brick and twenty thousand hollow brick: ~he hollow brick was used on the mter1or 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 reinforced 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 arc named James. James, the elder, is in liis eightieth year, another James in his fifties and the third in the twenties. A. W. HALL Congratulations \ . to 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 stations 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.
