LAKE SHORE COTTAGE
FOR MIDWEST FOLKS
Chicago Branch of Big Box
Concern Introduces a
New Idea.

The Midwest Box company of Chi
cago, branch of the same organiza-
ton that owns the Midwest Virginia
box factory in this city has erected n
handsome cottage for its employees at
Grant Beech, q popular resort on the
shores Of Lake Michigan near Chicago.
The Grand Beach Breeze, a sprightly
weekly published for the benefit OF
the Grand Beach summer colony in its
issue of August 16 had the following
to say about the new cottage:
The new club house erected by the
Midwest Box company, of Chicago,
is to be used primarily as a rallying
ground for the Midwest organization.
The initial need for structure of this
kind was felt by Midwest through the
trouble experienced in locating sat
isfactory meeting place for their an
nual convention of executives, heada
OF departments and statesmen.
The Midwest organization is high
ly specialized, and great deal of care
is used in selecting its personnel. Co
operation is one of the fundamental;
principles, and this necessitates many
meetings OF the many departments,
topped off with the annual meeting.
In these annual meetings Midwest
conducts sales convention, engineer
ing school and plant managers meet
ings.
The Midwest management believes
in giving Midwest associates every
opportunity for individual progress,
which, of course, makes for united
progress.

a rule, Industrial firms hold conyen-
lions, but they are not held at per-
manent location. The General Elec-
trio company in the least varied from
this custom by purchasing in Lake
Ontario an island called Association
Island" upon which are held many i'm
portant meetings during the year. AS
result, business is combined with
outing and pleasure, and traditions
are being built around Association
Island which are dear to the important
men in the General Electric company
who are fortunate enough to be high
enough in the organization to enjoy
the advantages of the Island.
"Mid-Westwood" will be used in a
very similar way, and Grand Beach
was selected because of its golf course,
bathing beach, woods, and proximity
to Chicago, where the general offices
OF the Midwest Box company are
located. Each year regular appro-
priation will be made for midwest
wood" the same as for any of the five
manufacturing plants of the Mid West
Box company, and the place will be
built up and beautified.
Not only will all of the important
meetings of the Midwest Box COM
pany, in the summer. be held at mid
Westwood," but undoubtedly many
meetings of several other large indus
! trial concerns with whom the Mid
West Box company is closely allied
will be held at Mid -Westwood." The
fact that Mid Westwood" will be I'M

industrial firms will be permitted u

that any individual in attendance al

ilege of Mid Westwood" will be OF
the right class and character.

Grand Beach who before this have NOT
known that resort OF such desira-
btity was so near and SO accessible to
Chicago and the middle west.
The Midwest club house is built
in the shape Of an L. The main part
OF the first floor is devoted to a large,
spacious lounge with an artistic fire
place at one end Leading form this
large assembly room or lounge are
sleeping rooms, shower baths and other
accommodations. The entire second

of the rooms are outside, so as to have
plenty of air, and they are furnished
in such way as to insure the comfort
OF the guest. There are accommoda-
tons for about eighty guests.

ARCHANGEL, March 31.-(By The
Associated Prcssl.-BolShevik troops.
after heavy bombardment Sunday of
the Allied positions on the railway front
and south of Odoze rskaia, attacked at
1880 o'clock in the afternoon. The at
tack was repulsed completely by the
Allied fire. The retiring Bolsheviki
we're met by their own machine gun
fire. while the Allied artillery dispersed
various groups of the enemy.
An Allied airplane discovered six
trains three miles south of the front
line and attacked one of them with
bombs. A locomotive and stretch OF
track were destroyed.
A little garrison of four French sol
diers in an outlying blockhouse guard
ing one of the Allied fanks near the
front line yesterday repeatedly re-
pulsed attacks by eighty Bolshevik in
fantrymen, who had slipped through
the woods and attempted a su Prise.
The Allied positions along the front
lire are strong, with blockhouses
guarding the fanks and snow trenches
built up with log barricades, while
there are ample dugouts to shelter all
the Allied forces The troops holding
this front include conside rable nun bers
of American, French, British and New
Russian troops. The Allied artillery
here is probably equal to that of the
enemy.
