new INVENTION
IS OF Interest

As time goes on the modern sciene-
es continue to, produce and perfect
devices for the further.ng of this civil
liZation of which We are so proud
The new inventions which daily come
beneath our eyes are designed TO ele-
vaIe the methods employed in doing
things" in every walk of life.
Some few years ago the first adding
machine made its appearance. Since
that time there have been many i'm
proponents made in the construction
OF these wonderful labor and time
saving machines.
Some three years, ago little fellow
by the name of Rodney Marchant in
vented a calculating machine which,
to his mind, surpassed every predeces-
sor He continued to experiment, I'M
prove and patent his invention until
he thought it worthy of the American
public. Negotiations were made
whereby company was formed to
manufacture for the market Mar
chants calculating machine.
= For the past Is months now, this
company, with offices and factory in
Oakland, Cal, has been working to
capacity to produce enough machines
to meet the instantaneous and tremen-
dous demand. So. readily were the
superior features recognized that
never, since the company has been
we'll under way. has the demand been
fully supplied. The company has lived
en- prospered and enlarged.
Every form of mathematical prob
lem can be worked out in remarkably
short time and with great ease by the
use CT this ''brainy", little piece of
mechanism.
At the close of the last fiscal year
the company's financial statement
showed such astounding progress to-
ward success, Notwithstanding the
fact that the facilities were inadequate
to the demand. that the directorate of
the company decided that an enlarge
ment of the plant: was the thing in
order for the best interests of the
company. Consequently it was also
decided to dispose of a limited number
OF shares of capital treasury stock in
order to obtain the amount Of capital
necessary to erect a properly equip
ped plant upon the site purchased for
the purpose. >s-3~"e %*.@.E r, -.:&..
With the control of the company
tied up in escrow, and with company
of responsible men at his back. Mr.. c..
P. Crawford departed for Honolulu
with the view of placing some of this
stock in as short a time as possible.
Since his arrival here Mr.. Crawford
reports unusual success and hopes to-
dispose of the remaining shares with
in comparatively short time i
