Wersted and Phillip Braun, all leaders in their re- spective fields in the automobile busi- ness in Winnetka are back from Springfield, Ill, planning to put into practice many of the things they learned at the laboratory garage of the Weaver Equipment company, in the capital city. The Springfield company not only manufactures all kinds of garage equipment, but demonstrates in its laboratory garage the most scientific methods employed in the numerous departments of the automotive indus- try, even to changing tires, polishing brass and keeping books. The Winnetka trio went to Spring- field last week-end as guests of the Weaver company. It was a veritable school in this line of work, and so in- terested did the Winnetka "students" become and so thoroughly did they | apply themselves to the course that they received high grades in the form of enthusiasm over the most approved methods to be applied in conducting their Winnetka establishments. me 1232-36 Central Avenue Wilmette 4300 Winnetka 2000 Battery of Job Presses fan more particular you are about your printing the more you'll appre- ciate the kind of work you get when you buy your printing here.
