KHil'S IS A. CAM OF PAIBT By V. R. Sieplein
oat people think of paint aa Just P A I B T not appreciat ing the many aonrcea contributing to it or the endless variety of products nos offered to the public for a Multitude of requirements* The SheminWilliame Co. produces something over 15,000 products.
There is scarcely any item of coneon nee that does not re quire a finish of soma type of pelht, enamel, varnish, or lacquer for pro tection or beautification. "Save the Surface Tou Save AH", and "Paint Protecta America" are the keynotes of the paint industry, which in IS)47 obtained a total sales volute of over one billion dollars.
How long would a wooden house remain habitable if it vere not for the protecting coat of paint? In Mow England there are many fine Colonial houses well over one-hundred yeere old, in good condition today because they have been frequently painted, thus protecting then from the weather for over a century.
Were It not for the protection afforded by good paint, bridges would become unsafi in a very few years.
Exoept for the beautiful lacquer finish, en automobile would rust away In a year or so.
. SKP and roof paints protect the exterior of the home, while Kern-Tone, Seal-Lustre, Zhameloid, Floor Ehamel, Mar-Hot, end other interior finishes brighten and beautify tbs interior of the hone.
The Sherwin-Williams Co. has contributed much to the present high standards of the paint lnduetry. When Mr. Sherein started in the paint business in 1866, prepared paint was practically unknown. Painting was a job for an experienced painter who mixed paint specially for each Job using the
frw primitive materials then available. -

Xn the hletorlcel collection I here e little book printed in 1880 containing the following directions for raking flat vail paiatj
"Mix the best English ground lead with spirits of turpentine to the thickness of nolassea. Put in Prussian Blue finely ground in equaL parts of oil and turpentine. To neke a siiperb gray, add a little Vermillion. Great care gust be taken to natch the shade by comparing the flat paint with the remains of the last colors shich nay be left in the paint pot. When the flat paint is brought to the proper shade, strain it and thin it with turpentine to the proper consistency."
Bo* the householder can buy a can of prepared paint which will produce a better finished job than e skilled painter could do e century ago.
Since that tins the art of making paint hae developed, no* using many Intricate chemical compounds resulting in products undreamed of fifty and even twenty-five years ago. Most paint ingredients now used ere manufactured ehamicall/ and even the natural materials are carefully refined and specially prepared for use.
SUP Close White Bouse Paint, for example, is the finished product of several Industries procuring raw natarlals fron the mine, the field, and the forest. To insure satisfactory performance much laboratory research is devoted to the fonmlation, end products are subjected to severe field tests, (pioturs #1, can of SWP)
The raw materials used are the products of lead, sine,, titanium, and iron minis, fields of flax, turpentine pine forests, and the plants processing these products of nature.
Tht pigment in SUP Gloss White is e blend of white lead, leaded zinc, and titanium oxide. The white lead is mad* by what is known an the Quick Process in which th* pig lead is malted, than blown through a nozsle to atomise it into small globules. These ere treated with week acetic acid and COg gas changing It over to carbonated lead, (picture #2, Lead Mine, and picture #5, White Lead Corroding Cylinders)

The leaded sine is Bade from lead and (sine ore turned in a conaidarable volume of air. The oxide forming In the fumes settle* down as a fine white duet and la collected in bags* (picture #1, Leaded Zinc FUmacsa)
Complicated chemical processes develop the titanium oxide from the ores, (picture #5, Titanium Mine)
Linseed oil is, of course, the oil pressed from flax seed, (picture #6, flax Field, and picture #7, Linseed Oil Expeller Installation, Sherwin-Williaas Plant, Montreal, Canada) This raw oil is carefully refined and treated to remove all impurities and promote thorough drying.
The turpentine used in connection with such paint ia distilled from a pine forest, (picture #8, Turpentine Pine Forest) The email, quantity of driers required are the organic salts of lead, manganese, and cohalt.
dll these Ingredients are carefully aimed and ground by exact processes under strict laboratory control and filled into tin cans, (picture #0, Chicago Factory)
The painter or the consumer using the product finds it per fectly adapted to his every requirement, as the finished products are being tested constantly under all conditions. Many field and laboratory tests are under way at ell times in many points all over the United States, (picture #10, Chicago Paint Taat Fence)
The tin plate from which tin cane are made is the finished product of the eteel industry beginning with the deposits of iron ore of the Meambe Range, (pioture #11, Iron Ore Mines of Mssaba Range, Minn.) brought down the Idas to the enormous steel mills of Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, snd made into tin plate, (picture #12, Tin Plate Mill)

Cana of SWP and other Sherwin-ffllllans products are packed in fibre cartons end lent to the warehouse, (picture #14, Chicago Warehouse, area equal to three football fields) and from thare they are shipped to one of the company's 400 branches or dealers located all orer the United States for the conrenience of the public, (picture #15, Wilkes Barrs, Pa, Branch)
Paint finally finds its resting place on a well-painted house which will be protected against the weather end will look fresh for a long time, (picture #16, procure from the Red Style Guide file Kodachrome #16 or #10 brought up to the proper else for the illustration of this article)
The present SHP formula le a great improrement orer former house paints made up to the time Just before the war. This present paint dries more thoroughly and more rapidly, thus is not to subject to damage by rain, heavy dew, dust, or flying inaecta. It dries with less brush marks and better gloss, thus keeping cleaner. The coat is more level providing a more uniform and thicker film which will wear longer,
SIP is the result of seventy-five years of careful scientific research in compliance with the definite policy set by the founders of the business -- to make the best paint possible for each Individual requirement, to market it through aggressive selling end advertising methods, end so make It most convenient for the piblic to procure it. Following these policies The Sherwin-Williams Co, continues to occupy the leading position in the paint, varnish, and lacquer Industry.
