Rip Task 70 sweep Floor.

1t Is enough to blister ones hands
just to contemplate the Job that con-
fronted the men who swept the floor
of the mammoth palace Of agriculture
at the st. Louis worlds fair. When
the contractors finished their work all
that remained to be done was to
sweep the floor. 1t never dawned on
anyone how great the task was Cald-
we'll & Drake, the contractors, ordered
dozen brooms and set twelve men to
work. When night came their Inroads
on the twenty-three acres of floor
space were scarcely noticeable. They
increased the force next day to forty
men and ordered 100 brooms. These
forty men worked ten days before the
big floor was thoroughly swept.
