The Acme White Lead and Color Works, of Detroit, hos . added a new building for the manufacture of white lead by the '"mild" process invented by Wilson H. Rowley. This method is ' '"asfollows: The pig lead is hoisted to the third story of the plant' and melted in a great caldron. In this initial earning - to the caldron is the only need of human labor until the 'finished - - product appears. The stream of molten lead runs through a pipe in the bottom of the caldron to an atomizer, where it encounters a blow of superheated steam that disintegrates it into its smallest particles--so small are they that assembled they resemble a stove polish, somewhat dried--and this fine, powder* like substance is collected in large tanks of wafer, from whence it ia carried on to broad, tronghlike tables, where powerful agitators search it for any small particles of lead that remain iunconverted. Air at low pressure is forced through the liquid ' "lead end water, the combined action of air and water convert ing the lead into what ia called a basic hydroxide of lead. Observe that, in ell the processes, no handling has been neces- 'Sj - suy. From the top sioir of the building the lead finds its 4^4 **- ' - 'way from floor to floor, through gravitation, and in its liquid form ia then pumped back to complete its transformation.

The Acme White Lead and Color Works, o! Detroit, has added a new building for the mamafuture of white lead by the "mild" process in vented by Wilson K. Rowley. This method is as follows: The pig lead is hoisted to the third story of the plant and melted in a groat caldron. In this initial tarrying to the caldron is the only need of human labor nntil the finished product ap pears. The stream of molten lead nm* through a pipe in the bottom of the caldron to an atom izer, where it encounters a blow of superheated steam that disintegrates it into its smallest par ticles--so small are they that assembled they re semble a store polish, somewhat dried--and this fine* povrdcrlske substance is collected in large ; tanks of water, from whence it is carried on to broad, troughlike tables, where powerful agita' tors search ft for any small particles of lead that remain unconverted. ^Air at low pressure is forced through the liquid lead and water, the \ combined action of air and water converting the [ lead into what is called i basic hydroxide of < lead. Observe that in all the processes, no handling has been necessary. From the top story of the budding the lead finds its way from floor to floor, through gravitation, and in its liquid form is then pumped back to complete its transformation. There remains to be done the carbonating proc__css, which, is. completed .by placing the lead in carbonaton* where it is constantly agitated while it U being subjected to the action of gas pumped m undtr low pressure. This gas is a product of me plant itself In 3d hours of this treatment tm proper fineness and density is obtained and the finished tend--white as snow--is pumped to the drying beds, which are long strips of duck canvas laid over screens, and here it dips, the finished product. The proof that the lead has been thoroughly converted and deprived of ics soluble lead salts is that these duck sheets last a long time. Heat air, water and gas have _tcrhaadng. ed the pig lead to the white lead of die M-I-C-H-J-G-A-X, duct's them. I U's a name that a shame never has been coiwiec-tcd with, .N Mich-i-gan, V. T M.

How Thom** Neil, the Errand Boy, Helped to Build one of the Greatest Utnn> facturing Institutions in Detroit. r was Lincoln 1hhnsclf who said that thc*c was nothing so wonderful in a rnil-rpliuer be coming a presi dent; today there .are thousands, of successful men who could say the same . thing in a different way. They might" ex THOMAS M(AL press it as Roosevelt did in a speech about a year ago--that "it's the man in a man that counts; his pluck, his ambition, his persever ance and honesty.** There is every opportunity ip the world for the success of that boy today who starts oi;t in life handicapped by things which he may believe will forever insure bis medio crity. This is the age of "men that are men." and while education and capital are great aids in the tight for success, it is the "pluck and honor tit a boy" that counts. There is not a better example in Detroit today of what pluck and perseverance wiU do than in the story of Thomas Heal, one of the directors of the Michigan Savijjjr* Bank, one of the founders and at present the secretary and general manager of the greatest institution of its kind in the world-- the Acme White Lead and.Color Works. Hr. Heal is recognized ts one of the best business men in Michigan and one of the sanest financiers associated with any bank ing institution in the country. "Tom's climb," as we might call it, is an object lessen for every bright,. hustling youngster in Detroit He was bom in Corunna. Ontario, September 87th, lass, his parents moving to Detroit when he was eight years old. Tom had alt kinds of am bition; be wanted to get out into the world and make something of himself, so an spite of his family's wishes he went to work f when only sixteen years of age as an errand. ] boy at ft a week with the Rational Pin ; Company. Out of that $4 a week he put S3 in ' the bank every Saturday, and after a few months he began going to a night school, jy This savings account was the beginning of his success. At the end of four years, when ! he had advanced to book-keeper in the con cern. the combination of bis company with another compelled him to seek another posi tion, and he. went into an insurance office. Still he added to his bank account, and at the age of 27 he was able to aecotapKsh-the ambition of bis life--go into business for himself. '/ " ! ! 5^3;- That was ihe beginning of the greatecsstt **V~if* paint ami varnish works in the world. In F' a little one-story building out Grand River i ^ avenue he and Willinm L. Du vies began ` V making paint. While Real worked in their ; I tiny factory, "Billy** Davies, the president i of the great institution of today, held down t * an outside job in order to mid to their ^ jj working funds. Their first order was for *' . . A SIXGLE BARREL OF PAIXT, and no L | order that was ever'given to any firm in ^ . the world created more joy than that. How j ! pluck atul perseverance will win may he *. I seen ht the fact that rccciitly there were . "`j - on the company's books for one month'*.; . "immediate" delivery orders for ltJ2 CAR- f _ LOADS OF FAlKT, besides nrnwneraUe j x smaller orders, and that from the little room l , 1 out Grand River avenue has grown one of L... { the most magnificent manufacturing plants [ .V-V in the United States, with a capitalization Jl 1 today of $J,550,0J, ! - V *;* ;v' \. - . Boys, what do you think of this? Doesn't \ it stir yonr ambition a little? Doesn't it { ~ . show what the business world bolds for you : --if you've just got the "ginger," the per- 1severance, the honesty, and. above all, a j "saving ability?" , y- . Cjk**St**~ < - THE SOWZXT WHITE XEAD MOCESS. ' Hu Acme. 'White Lead and Color Works, of Detroit, has added a new building for the manufacture of white lead by the -mild" process invented by Wilson H. Bcwley. Thi* method is as follows: The pig lead is hoisted to the third story of the plant and melted in a great caldron. In this initial carrying to the caldron is the only need of human labor until the finishedproduct appear*. The stream of molten lead runs through & pipe in the bottom of the csldron to an atomizer, where it encounters a blow of superheated steam that disintegrates it into r - . its smallest particles--so small are they that assembled they resemble a store polish, somewhat dried--and this fine, powderlike substance is collected in large tanks of water, from whence ' it is carried on to broad, troughlike tables, where powerful agitators search it for any small particles of lead that remain -unconverted. Air at low pressure is farced through the liquid j.letd and water, the combined action of air and water convert ing the lead into what is called a basic hydroxide of lead. Observe that, .in all the processes, no handling has been neces =r sary. Brom the top story of the building the lead finijs its way from, floor to floor, through gravitation, and in it* liquid form is then pumped back to complete its transformation. There remains to be done the carbonating' process, which is completed by placing the-lead in carbonators, where it is con stantly' agitated while it is being subjected to the action of gas pumped in under low-pressure. This gas is a product of tbe plant itself. In 3fi hours of tins treatment the proper fineness and density ia obtained and the finished lead--white a* snow--is pumped to the drying beds, which ore long strips of duck canvas laid over screens, aid here it drys, the finished product The proof that the lead hat been thoroughly converted and deprived of its soluble lead salts is that these duck sheets last'a long time. Heat, air, water and gas have (hanged the pig lead to the -white lead of the trade*. - 0007-SWP-000126233 j s ms s &e l \\ illiam L.
