parts of the country more comfort

shall dwell upon and briefly.
HOW III WAS CONCEIVED
"A little of the history of this
widely-used machine. The JORDAN
was the invention OF the late o. F.
Jordan, Michigan Central railway
official who saw that mechanical
methods could be used to do many
tasks then performed by men or by
men and horses. Obtaining patents
on his machine. he built in East Chi
cago plant for their manufacture
His machine originally was mount
ed on a wooden car with wooden
frames.
Upon the death Of Mr.. Jordan
some ten years ago. the direction of
the company passed into the hands
of Col. Walter j. Riley of this city.
Under Col. Riley's direction the
company has expanded, the machine
has been re-designed so that today
it is an all-steel affair. and with
m a ny additional improvements
Having once worked on railroad
himself. Col. Riley saw new field
SDr the Jordan, and under his direc-
ton the ditching attachment was
patented and perfected.
WHAT 1T DOES
Primarily the Jordan is rail-
way machine, spreading and moving
earth. sloping banks, ripping up Ice
lighting and removing snow and
forming bitches. 1t is an all-the-
year-around machine-for railways,
and the new ditcher attachment en-
ables railways to have good drain
age and without good drainage you
do not have safe travel, The big
function of the Jordan is best ex-
pressed in the slogan. Tt does the
work of an army of men In
days time, this machine with a To-
connective attached. does what form
erly required two thousand men to
do. An interesting description of
the Jordan is to be found in the

fled today at the coroner's inquest in
to the collapse Of the building, which
resulted in the loss of SO lives.
The changes, according to the wit
ness, were the substitution of trusses
for large beams and the use of num-
ber of small beams where other sizes
had been called for. These modifica-
tions were made, however, he ex-
