Paradoxically, the Amer­ ican skin cream that fits so neatly into this modern way of doing things has been around for over 60 years! Which wouldn't sur­ prise its inventor one bit. All purpose It was in 1914 that a Baltimore pharmacist named George Avery Bunt­ ing first put together a combination of natural in­ gredients in a grease less, vanishing-cream base and labeled it Dr. Bunting's Sunburn Remedy. Right from the beginning, cus­ tomers found the cream a great "do-gooder",, for all sorts of little problems. Universal appeal Over the years, legions of people of both sexes have used Noxzema on themselves, their children, even their pets! Some wrote in to say it made an excellent shampoo. The Baltimore Zoo used it to heal a monkey's paws which became irritated from finger painting. Men shaved with it, and still do. Many a sightseer's tired and burning foot has been cooled and soothed by it. One man even reported using it on his dying apple tree -- which lived! Tried and true All the while, millions of women were telling each other, and telling their daughters who told their daughters, what a great beauty cream it was. How it "washed" a lovely spar­ kle into complexions and acted as a moisturizer, make-up base and night cream too. Famous blue jar Always modestly priced, the blue jar still does the work of a whole expensive battery of cosmetics. Small wonder it outsells any other skin cream in the world! While the world seems to get more complicated every year, some of the good things in life remain constant. And Noxzema is one of them -- an old friend you can still depend on to simplify and ease your life. How very mod­ ern of the little blue jar! Energy -- new frontiers The District of Columbia was established by Con­ gressional acts of 1790 and 1791. Virginia and Maryland granted land on each side of the Potomac River, in­ cluding the towns of Alex­ andria and Georgetown. - Alexandria was returned to Virginia in 1846. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, founders of the country, died on the same day -- July 4, 1826.

As we have seen these products evolve and devel­ op, we learn that much of the history of America and of Chamberlain has been interwoven for seventy years. There may not seem to be much of a connection between solar energy col­ lectors, washing machine wringers, and cream sep­ arators, but there is! Industrial pioneer At each stage in the development of the Amer­ ican economy since the year 1906, when the com­ pany was founded, Cham­ berlain has been supplying products vital to the con­ sumer. This has been important for the smooth functioning of that unique combina­ tion of government and industry that character­ izes the United States. Back in the company's early days in Waterloo, Iowa, Andrew Chamber­ lain knew that creameries depended on power cream separators, and that those machines would be useless without rope belts to make them run. He also recog­ nized the importance of building up an inventory of spare parts for separ­ ators. As vital as that industry was to the nation, Cham­ berlain saw the need to diversify as the economy changed. In 1913 Andrew's son Floyd began making parts for gasoline engines. Of course no one foresaw the energy crisis in those days, but power was still an important commodity. That's why Floyd began the assembly of windmill motors. Solar energy Today the company has seized hold of that energy- saving spirit and will soon begin the manufacture of solar collectors from plans developed by its own re- GRANDFATHER CLOCK with triple chime movement is a faithful recreation by Howard Miller Clock Company of one crafted about 200 years ago by the famed John God- dard of Newport, Rhode Island. Grandfather clocks:..». a treasured tradition Some of America's great­ est colonial craftsmen made Newport, Rhode Is­ land, a furniture center in the late 18th century. John Ooddard and his brother-in-law John Town- send are two who turned out a prodigious amount of fine work there, and today chests, secretaries, highboys, lowboys and clocks attributable to ei­ ther of them bring fancy prices at auction galleries and antiques fairs. For example, a Goddard grandfather clock that is a beautiful example of his sense of proportion and style sold at Parke-Bernet not long ago for $25,000. Since not everybody can possess the original, God- dard's classic American design is being reproduced as a Bicentennial salute by Howard Miller -- a be­ liever, like Ooddard, in the quality and craftsmanship that produces heirlooms. Its price tag is $725. The shell motif that decorated many a God­ dard creation is individu­ ally carved on each re­ creation, as are the ros­ ettes that distinguish the bonnet top. Scaled somewhat small­ er to fit comfortably into contemporary interiors, the "new" Goddard with its fluted columns and moon phase dial is other­ wise faithful to the orig­ inal. In addition, it has a triple chime movement and, inside the door, two brass plates. One plate is engraved with a registration num­ ber and the other with the purchaser's name. So when the "new" Goddard grand­ father reaches its Bicen­ tennial birthday, its his­ tory can be traced as readily as that of a 200- year-old Goddard grand­ father todav Jft NOTICE Riverside Bake Shop 1309 N.

But back in the day of Floyd Chamberlain, World War I had gripped the globe in its vise of destruc­ tion. Serving the nation be­ came the prime concern of everyone. Chamberlain of course was no exception. The company plunged headlong into the manu­ facture of shells for French 75mm guns. This was the famous "French 75" that was credited with repelling the German on­ slaught against Paris. Turning point With the end of the war and the boom times of the twenties looming on the horizon, Americans began looking for products that would add to the "ease of their lives and the efficien­ cy of completing time-con- suming household tasks. Chamberlain began makjhig washing machine wringers, and by 1923 had helped "liberate" women from a lot of drudgery when the company began full scale mass production. Throughout the hard times of the 1920's, Cham­ berlain managed to hold its own. But the march of time and the forces of history soon changed a lot of things for both America and Chamberlain. World conflict By 1941 there were over 1,500 people working in Waterloo manufacturing bombs and projectiles for the Pacific Theater of War. When the war ended, an exhausted, yet opti­ mistic America turned its thoughts once again to­ ward peace, and the lei­ sure and prosperity that it would bring. An easy life meant no more ice man and heavy blocks of ice. Instead, it was refrigerators and the ease, convenience, and safety Of better kept foods. Chamberlain made the refrigerator shelves to hold those foods, and perfected ways of efficiently coating the metal from which they were fabricated. The Korean War was another of those conflicts that will characterize the twentieth century as one of the most destructive In the history of mankind. So once again the de­ mands of international confrontation forced Chamberlain to gear up for the high volujmk1 pro- „ duction of munitions. But the company was strong enough to diversify and retool after this war, as it did after the two world conflicts. This time its metal fab­ ricating capabilities and the requirements of both the American consumer and our defense establish­ ment, pointed Chamber­ lain in the direction of expansion. * Coast to coast In .1956 the company acquired a Division in Monroe, Georgia that was to be the first of twelve others located all over the United States, from coast to coast. Chamberlain con­ tinues to represent the evolution and development of American industry to this day.

Be­ cause the satin-finish timepiece is of simulated gold, it costs much less than a U.S. $20 goldpiece. Small scale, flexible units Americans like to enter­ tain in a big way!
