much as II helps to explain one Of
the cuts appearing herewith. 1t fol-
lows In part:
THE sash Is OF very simple con-
struction, and yet ID much stronger
than the common wooden sash. II is
better able to withstand the pressure
OF the wind. and furnishes no fuel
to fire. II is made of steel bars. The
method Of Joining these bars is very
ingenious and decidedly unique. A
small cross slot Is made In the yer.
tical bar of the sash just large enough
TO admit the fiange OF the horizontal
bar. The nodded part of the vertical
bar is then pressed out so as to fold
closely around the nodded portion OF
the horizontal bar. In the latter a
small notch Is cut to act as lock
II will be observed that the amount
of metal removed in making this joint
is infinitesimal. The bars run with.
ont break from top to bottom of the
window as well as from side to side
making particularly strong frame
work, and this permits OF using a
much lighter section than is possible
with a inter joint construction, SO
that a great saving Is effected In the
weight OF the material used and con
sequently in the ultimate cost of the

great saving in operating cost and
an additional protection against fire.
AS fire retardant, particularly In
a group of buildings. Fenestra has
proven its value on more than
one occasion. When one stops
to think about the matter. 1t seems
really incomprehensible how a manu-
facturer can erect freproof building,
so-called, equip 1t with wooden sash,
and expect II to Withstand the flames.
That the advantages of Fenestra
are coming to be recognized more and
more is evidenced by the constantly
increasing demand for the product.
Detroit manufacturers were among
the first to adopt it, and there is
scarcely a factory district In the city
now where Fenestra is not in evil
dence. One of the newest installa-
tons was at the modern plant of the
Gear Grinding Machine Co., at Chene-
st. and the Boulevard, just a block

the company, the Scientific Ameri-

been demonstrated that the use of
this sash makes 1t possible to deliver
20 per cent more light through a
given opening than with the ordinary
window sash. This fact alone means
much to the manufacturer as we'll as
TO the employe. II means less strain
on the eyes of the artisan and bet
ter quality of work. 1t means saw

stances where artificial light would
otherwise be required Fenestra rem
ders 1t unnecessary. With this sash,
we are told, there is no limit to ven
tilation. the advantages OF which are
self-evident.
In these two important features Of
the Fenestra wrought-steel window
sash lies the solution of two OF the
greatest industrial problems of the
age, the proper lighting and ventilat-
ing of factory buildings With sociol-
ogists loudly clamorng for reforms
in the conditions that surround the
workers in the shops. along comes
the Detroit Steel Products Co., quietly
and without any ostentation, with an
innovation which at once makes for
comfortable and healthful working
conditions and, at the same time,
guarantees to the manufacturer a

name big with meaning, as will be
seen later.
Behind this simple statement Of
fact lies an interesting business story,
one OF the most interesting, In fact.
in Detroit's industrial chapter for the
first decade of the Twentieth century.
II has to do with a concern that, in
six short years, has taken its place
among Detroit's foremost industrial
institutions. and has become as in
dispensable to the Twentieth century
conception of modern, freproof
building as the cement manufacturer,
the Detroit Steel Products Co.
IL you have ever traversed the
boulevard In your auto or your
friends auto. you can scarcely have
failed TO notice the group of buildings
thanking the north side OF the thor
oughfare, just at the turn, east OF
Chene-st. The main structures, four
In number and covering several acres
OF ground. seem TO be all windows at
nrst. AS you approach nearer you
will notice that they are better ven
tilated than most windows. The ex-
PLANTATION is simple. All the buildings
save one, the oldest of the group, are
equipped with wrought steel Detroit
Fenestra window sash, and the mod
ern plant which claims your attention
is the home OF this Justly celebrated
product.
Let's 60 on through the works. A
guide leads the way through the forge
department to a newer structure at
the extreme easterly side OF the
grounds. 1t Is T-shaped affair and
you are Immediately impressed with
it's extensveness. Everywhere you
look you will see steel window sash,
In all shapes and dimensions, some
being packed for shipment, others in
the process of assembling.
Along one side OF the room are
ranged huge stamping machines. and
as you pass among them you will see
F'enestra sash in every stage OF con-
struction. One machine simply makes
4 pivot in one end Of the rolled steel
bars the operator takes from the
stock; another cuts nick In the
edge; a third performs the operations
necessary to make the famous Fenes-
ira Joint, and so on down the line.
In another part of the building skilled
workmen are engaged in putting
these various parts together to form
the sash itself. This done, the cor
ners OF the frames are electrically
welded together, the vents are
adjusted.--a careful and delicate pro-
cess. and the sashes are ready for
the paint vat.
Now that we have seen Fenestra
made we have naturally become in
quisitive as to its advantages. II has
