The manufacture of cigar boxes by the above
enterprising firm has come to be one of the sub
stantial industries of Ravenna.
While there is close competition in this line Of
manufacture. and the territorial limits of trade
more or less restricted by reason of the numer-
Gus factories scattered throughout the country.
this concern has more than held its own with its
rivals. and has added to its list of patrons year
by year, by virtue of superior workmanship.
and the high standard of its output.
To successfully handle the increase of orders
1t became necessary to enlarge the factory, and
to add to its equipment. by which the plant has
been substantially doubled in room and capacity
There have been no backward steps in the
management and development of the business.
which has reached proportions gratifying to tn 9
pride and endeavors of the proprietors.
With an excellent reputation well establisne ed,
and live people to further its growth. we can see
no reason why this plant shall not go steadily
forward in the future. as in the past.
