Built Here.
IS A BIG IMPROVEMENT

A new enterprise is getting under
way in Keokuk. The name Of the new
firm is the Keokul Window Strip
company. Hugh NJ Mcclure of this
city. instructor in the manual training
| department of the Keokuk schools has
perfected a new window strip and has
applied for patent on this. The
new company will manufacture and in.
/ stall the strips, and eventually expects
to locate factory here for the making
! OF these strips.
| The new window strip has many
| features giving 1t an advantage over
the old style strip Mr.. Mcclure has
installed strips on a window in an old
building in the city, and has made the
window practically draught proof and
prevents any rafting.
The new article has several adj
vantages over the usual type of wealth
er strip. The cost completely install
| ed is about one-half the cost of the US
ual weather strip. 1t is installed in
Cne-fourth to one-sixth OF the usual
time required. No growing of the
sash is necessary to install it. The
installation, therefore does not result
in shavings and disorder.
Mr.. Mcclure has joined with A. NJ.
Severn, who will undertake the active
management of the business for the
present, at least
Mr.. Mcclure said. 'Mr A. NJ. Severn,
who has had experience in installing
all makes Of weather strips, could not
recommend The Keokuk strip more
highly than he has done by undertak-
ing the management of the business
Of placing it on the market.
1--WE believe that it is a meritorious
Improvement and confidently expect
The business to grow. We hope, some
time to build our own factory building
in Keokuk. For the present, the metal
parts will be formed by Cincinnati,
Ohio manufacturer Keokuk will ne
the distributing center"
