cedented ALLL LA HILL ALLIS SAAT AAA IIIT 3 PAINT WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1921 GETS INSIDE "DOPE" ~ ON BUSINESS AFFAIRS E. G. Brochee Returns to Village from Furnace Company Service and Sales School ~ E. G. Brochee, Holland Furnace Company Branch Manager for this vicinity, who returned recently from the Service and Sales school at the ~~ Company's General Offices, Holland ~ Michigan, makes an interesting re- port of conditions as the various 'Branch Managers find them through- out the Central West. Mr. Brochee's report follows: "One of the most encouraging signs for the future, as our Com- pany views it, is the almost unpre- interest in better living conditions--in cheerier, cozier homes. As a basis for hopefulness the good home is looked upon as the stabilizer or balance-wheel of the Nation, and what could better signify the prog- ress of humanity than the Home? We are fortunate in that our work keeps us in constant touch with the intelligent and dependable people who really love their homes, and it is these very people who are making definite plans now for home improve- ments or new homes. Nearly all of our branches are sending out the same good news,--that prospects for business are brighter than ever be- ~ fore. Building and home improving have been retarded for so long that not only is every city short of homes, but the homes that we have can all be ~ brightened up, made cozier, or more convenient. People everywhere are 'realizing more and more that it is ~ Today that they are living, and that ~ Tomorrow depends almost wholly on hew they live Today. At our general offices in Holland the splendid spirit of optimism reigns supreme. Our factories are operat- ing full capacity, and more efficient- ly than ever, so that perhaps, for once, we may be in a position to sup- ply the ever-increasing demand for the Holland Warm-Air Circulation ~ System. With the standards of Hol- land Service reaching nearer and nearer to the goal of perfection, it is only to be expected that our en- tire organization should enjoy a keen satisfaction in the job of helping to Make Houses Into Homes." SENATOR McCORMICK SPEAKS ON CENTRAL EUROPE FEB. 22 Residents of the village will be in- terested in the announcement that ~ United States ~ Cormick from Illinois, will speak at Medinah Temple, Chicago, Tuesday Senator Medill Mc- evening, February 22, on the subject, "A Hurried Trip through Germany and Central Europe."

Senator McCormick who speaks under auspices-of the Relief Associa- tion working for Germany and Austria, recently returned from an extensive journey through Central Europe where he engaged in an in- timate study of the general situation in that vicinity.
