EEE Obey the Law When You Build Here is an extract from a state law on ventilation: “The owner, agent or lessee of a fac tory shall provide ta each workroom sufficient means of ventilation * * * © and in case of failure shall forfeit $10.00 for each day.” Right now when you are building or improving your factory is the time to make certain that the plans call for an up-to-date ventilating, dust-collecting or air-condi- tioning plant. Here's how failure to look ahead cost one manufacturer a pretty penny. Business. was booming. Orders were piling up faster than they could be filled. A fine new factory was erected. Most modern conveniences were installed, in- cluding a very complete steam heating system, All looked well ahead. But here was the mistake—here the oversight. No provision was made for ventilation.

Oh, State where royal poppies glow, Of all our galaxy the primate, Let Markham praise the things you grow And hymn your Unexampled Cli- mate !— Exalt your lovely names as well,— Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Yosemite, San Gabriel And Monterey and Mendocino, And tell of how the Spaniards came And squelched your copper-hued civilians, And how the Gringo did the same And dispossessed the proud Castil- jans! Let Markham sing your golden day, Your mammoth trees and_ living waters! Let me but laud your artless way OF making Native Sons and Daugh- ters!
