The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-09-28

Plans to inaugurate night and day manufacturing program by the addi- tion. of a night shift within a very few weeks at the plant of the Bridge port Die & Machine Co. on Elm street, have been announced. The extra night force to augment a day force now working 60 hours week is made necessary because of a rush, prior to the holiday trade, in the making of photograph records, a new line with this company since last April.
 Con paratineiS If, few persons in in Bridgeport Die & Machine company. located on Elm street between Broad and Harrison streets, is today en- graph records, having branched into this line of business last April. Or ganized since August, 1912, first To- cated on John street: later, in 1913, located in the Crawford Laundry company building on Fairfield ave nue, and finally moved to Elm street in 1916. the fact that the concern has been among the first to thrust it's has caused notice to be taken of the remarkable growth of the company since the new field was invaded
 Long established in machine work, die contracting. tool making and eX- perimental work. the Bridgeport Die & Machine company last April made some changes in it's organization started in the new work. doing at
 
 graphophoncs. and is now employing 2 nearly 50 people on 60 hour week basis with every indication that with in a very few weeks a night shift will have to be engaged to take care of the first venture the company is to make for itself in records.
 A feature to be known as a ''Ki iddy Record" with music by the Waldorf Astoria orchestra, decorations by the well known magazine illustrator, Miss c. NJ. Burr, and animal imita tions by Gilbert Gerard, will be a part of the embellishments to a Mother Goose series of six records. designed for the children. With present capacity for producing 25G.000 records a week plans are made to ultimately expand so that a capacity production of 75.- 900 a day may be obtained. Equip mept is in operation for producing both 10 inch and six inch records. and specifications call for small record of a quality higher than any similar small records yet produced.
 In the meantime records are being made on contract by many well known manufacturers and Q patented s;imp!ified process. with the most up- to-date machinery permits the local facto ory to market records in New York within 10 days after the rnusi- cal number has been registered in a New York studio for the purpose. It is hoped that the SoaI in maximum production planned will be reached

within six months. Occupying the
 ground floor, and two upper stories of the Elm street building ample space is available for the expansion planned.
 A trip through this plant with an insight into the modern machinery
 and methods employed, makes the
 manufacture of records seem a sim pie task. A huge piece of machin- cry on the main floor receives the sec
 retly compounded materials. that by a single process are formed into a
 mixture and sent frem the rolls of the machine in huge cakes, like giant flap jacks. While at a high pitch Of
 heat these cakes are transferred to another machine where the material
 goes through another set of rolls, which ffattens it in long strips, prob ably a half inch thick. These are then arranged on a drying table where they are cut in squares, the size of the record desired.
 Transferred to one of the higher floors the substance is placed in huge mechanically operated presses, which sends a, steam pressure of S4 pounds over the mixture. As the press closes, imprintinS the record and placing the label. cold water is automatically poured through the press hardening g

AIN EYEI.ASH CREAM.

There has always been a big de- mand for a cream or tonic to make the eyelashes long and thick In my opinion at least. very few prepara- tions really are effective. Vaselne, the standard remedy, is not a bit of good because it is a mineral product, and as such is not absorbed by the skin and has no nourishing value. The best formula I know is:
 Cocoa butter ---..---- dram
 Lanoline ...-..-.--- F dram
 Oil of sweed almonds
 CEnglish) .------.-- drams
 Everything Every h1 that is in this formula encourages the growth of hair if there is any root. This formula you can mix yourself by melting the lanoline, cocoa butter and wax and the moment they are melted adding the warmed oils, mixing thoroughly, and letting the mixture cool in small jar.
 This produces rather a thick cream which may have to be warmed a trifle in very cold weather. But if you will rub a little on the eyelids and around under the eye the warmth of the skin will melt it suf- ficiently so that it can be massaged in on even the coldest day. 1nciden- tally this will keep the skin around the eyelids very soft and smooth in even the bittereSt weather.
 If you are going to begin this as a treatment I would advise you to clip back the eyebrows and eyelashes a little distance and then to use the cream tonic every day. Clipping the lashes stimulates a heavier, thicker growth and it will only take a few weeks for them to grow back to their original length.
