LOS ANGELES SILK WORKS

In the hearty Endorsement Of The
Herald's pathway to prosperity cam
paign the people of Los Angeles can
not give better evidence of their loyalty
than by purchasing the high grade
products manufactured by the Los An
geles silk works, whose factory is To-
Gated at Graham station, on the Long
Beach Pacific Electric line, and whose
salesroom in the city is on the fifth
floor of the Examiner building, at 509-
511 South Broadway. This is one of the
strongest and most flourishing indus
tries in the state and was established
in 1905 by David 1. Newton, the presi-
dent, the company being incorporated
in 1906. The secretary and treasurer is
NJ J. Newton. The Los Angeles silk
works has the only silk factory in the
state and the company are exclusive
manufacturers of california silks, "
these two words printed across map
of California being the trade mark of
the company. Yard wide silks, in all
colors, plain, striped, checked and In
figures are the standard products of the
factory, and a special feature OF the
company Is the selling of all goods
direct to the consumer anywhere In the
country. None of the goods can be had
at the stores or through agents, the
company handling the entire product of
the plant, sending samples to inquirers
on receipt of requests when accom-
panied by 10 cents to pay for mailing.
etc. all goods being guaranteed to give
satisfaction or money refunded.
What initiates more perfectly the
down and sheen of delicate rose leaf
than the exquisite tints of some of the
most beautiful satins? What could pos
sibly suggest the ever shifting surface
of the sea more than some of the
changeable silks?"
In colors and textures that rival the
sunrise or the mist upon the noun
tains, the fabrics made at the Los An
geles silk works are beautiful enough
to inspire a poet. The production of
better silks, of greater beauty and
durability, yard wide for the same
price as harrow goods to be had at the
stores, the Los Angeles silk works
command a trade that is growing at a
mervelous pace, the demand being so
steady and persistent that within a
short time the large factory at Gra
ham will have to be enlarged in order
to provide for increased facilities.
