REMARKABLE PROGRESS

1t would seem almost impossible
that during the high cost of wages
and everything a business could be
started in the middle of the Great
War; buy and pay for a first class
plant and then sell building material
at a lower price than before the war;
pay mel better wages and show a re-
markabfe profit. Their business has
increased in leaps and bounds, and
their only trouble seems to be to keep
pace with the tremendous demand. It
Is surely a demonstration of the
brains and ability of some of Winni-
peg young business men. This big
success was not made by any skin
game or new-fangled building mater
ial, but in handling our own natural
resources in Ford fashion," making
machinery and proper system do the
sweating, instead of hand labor, with
the usual accompanying 1abor'trouble.
In fact. a strike would be impossible,
as they only employ proficient men,
they need so few Of them. These
people only supply the Wholesale
trade, and are so crowded with orders
that they. find Ut necessary to greatly
increase their output. They offer to
take in a partner (either active or
silent) who would invest an even
share with theml 1t is a great chance
for anyone to associate themselves
with a real industry. at the beginning.
