Dec. 1.-Artist Frank Millett, has invented machine to paint the big white buildings at Jackson Park. With the assistance of his machine two men can smear as much spalnt or calcl- mine in day as forty men with brush | Ia with which it decorates the building possesses the advantage of never going out on a strike or quarrelllng with the boss for shorter hours aud larger pay. | It is simply a gaspipe about foot long, pounded fiat at one end so as to leave an opening about an inch across and wide enough to insert sheet of card | board. This pipe IS attached to long | piece of rubber hose. The other end -oI | the hose is dipped into barrel of paint.
 An electric mOter pumps a current of
 air and lot of paint thorough the hose. | The force of the air scatters the paint | in fine spray as it comes from the
 gas pipe. A painter simply seizes the gas pipe and holds it about eighteen in- chef from the surface he is decorating, | the electric motor is turned on and the
 work IS done. Several men were sprlnk- ling the rafter5 cf the Electricity Hall today with pale blue calcimine. They were on top of taH scaffold, mounted on as wheel, and covered a greatersarea

 that way. There are acres of ceilings to
 be painted, so we turned the machines
 on them and it does the work well"
