Cartoons Magazine: Ever since the
war. and especially since the famous
peace message leak last winter. there
has been fear among the nigh Of

is going to get into their departments
and steal everything in sight.
AS a result, II Is almost impossible
for an ordinary citizen and some ex-
traordinary ones TO get into the places
Of public business hereabouts. One
needs a big charge Of dynamite TO
break his way into the state war and
navy building, unless perchance he
happens to be a personal friend Of Jo-

crackers and cookies and Sweetest
Maid candy. The main building is a
handsome structure of white brick that
is set back hundred feet or so from
University Avenue. A fine stretch of
lawn surrounds the building, dotted
here and there with trees and shrubs.
The location is splendid and the
prospect from the avenue most in
viting.
The building is of steel and con-
crete construction of imposing size.
Broad steel framed windows and a
system of light rejecting skylights
flood the interior with bright, even
daylight all day long, ventilation is
perfect.
A separate power house, reached by
a tunnel, furnishes heat and power
and the dirt and dust of boiler rooms
and coal bunkers is thus kept out of
the manufacturing building. Every
nook and corner is kept clean with
vacuum cleaners. Men are employed
who do nothing else but go constantly
around busting and gathering up any
odds and ends that may accumulate.

The floors are so constructed that they
can be flushed all over and drained
quickly. And this is done often.
Sanitary bubble fountains are scat
tered at convenient places all through
the building and furnish pure, cool
artesian drinking water from deep
well.
Big, light, airy locker rooms are
provided for all employees, with in
dividual steel lockers for their
clothes and belongings. Shower baths
and sanitary toilet rooms are in con-
nection. The baths and toilets are
finished in Minnesota marble with
mahogany woodwork. Lunch rooms are
also provided, were coffee and light
lunch can be obtained at actual cost
prices. All employees are kept sup
piled with fresh laundered uniforms
and clean, white caps which are con-
stantly worn during working hours.
There are large dressing and rest
rooms for the girls with every con-
venience for their comfort and health.
These rooms are in charge Of matrons
whose sole duty is to care for the girls
and to see that every precaution is
used to insure absolute cleanliness.
During the noon hour the beautiful
grounds make an ideal spot for relaxa-
ton from work.
