e. Cevecchi has just completed a
pneumatic polishing machine to take
the place of the hand rubbing. 1t is
built on the same principle as the
larger machines with miniature scroll
wheels and run by air the same as the
pneumatic tools are at present. A
test was made of it today and found
to work in first class order doing the
work of two men and as good as the
large machines. There is no doubt
but what Mr.. Cevecchi has a fortune
in his new invention.
Since the question of forming a
Boys Club has been under discussion
