The dedication a short time ago of
the new administration and jobbing
house building erected by the W. L.
Douglas Shoe Co. as a part of its mam-
moth manufacturing plant at Montello
was marked by the thoroughness and
attention to detail characteristic of the
firm in all its undertakings.
The dedicatory program included
open house from 11 a. m. to 8 p. m.
witt concert by the Mace Gay orches-
tra and the presence Gt a Boston
caterer to attend to the wishes of all.
The building itself afforded a feast
for the eye, esjiecially the offices,
whi«h are marvels in many ways.
Fifteen thousand invitations were sent
out. including over ll/'OO to the re-
tail dealers in the Unit d States who
handle the W. L. Douglas Co. shoes,
the others going to shoe manufactur-
ers and all allied industries in Brock-
ton md vicinity. Mr. Douglas will be
glac to have anybody who is interest-
ed call and inspect the new plant, and
says "the latch string Is always out.”
All departments of the plant were
open for inspection, the three factories
as well as the new building, and vis-
itor were received and escorted
thre igh the industrial maze by ex-
Gov Douglas, assisted by the heads
of the various departments.
Vrider the present system all shoes
are manufactured to order, and cus-
tom -rs sometimes lose sales waiting
for -hoes to arrive. With the new
jobb ng house they will be enabled to
have their hurry orders shipped the
' sam ■ day they are received.
