Glide-Away Garage Door Lcaves

All Garage Space Clear

It is claimed for the Glide-Away overhead type garage door that open or shut it leaves all the garage available for storage or work room, as it requires an absolute minimum of space, with the mechanism fitting right into the door jamb.

J. Z. Todd of the Western Door & Sash Co., Oakland, jobbers for these doors, says that Glide-Away is the easiest operating door on the market, because the spring does the work.

"The Glide-Away door is easily fitted to any garage, single or double. The mechanism is so fool-proof that it can be installed by anyone who is normally handy. It requires no special tools or fixtures. A wren,ch or pair of pliers is all that's needed. There is only one easily accessible nut to turn to adjust spring tension so that the door works smoothly.

"The Glide-Away is constructed of 100 per cent N-A-X high tensile steel, specially treated to give added protection against rust or corrosion. It is equally adaptable to new construction or modernization of existing garages," Mr. Todd said.

\Mestern Door & Sash Co. can make immediate delivery of these garage doors.

First Quarter Report of Holmes Eureka Lumber Co.

A total of $191,654.61 was spent in Eureka for payrolls and local purchases during the first quarter of. 1947 by the Holmes Eureka Lumber Company, it was announced last month by Fred Holmes, president.

Of the total, he said, all but about $38,000 represented take-home pay for the 255 men employed in the mill and woods by the struck company. A full crew of 90 men is engaged in the Salmon Creek logging operation.

Also during the first quarter the company shipped 212 carloads of lumber, mostly high grade siding and clear grades, despite a shortage of railroad cars.

The company figures show 69 shipped in January,'58 in February and 85 in March. An acute shortage of cars in February, a short month anyway, resulted in a lower figure. Mr. Holmes said.

Although the shipments went to all parts of the country, Holmes Eureka gave the local area first prioritv on all types of lumber, according to the report.

Mr. Holmes expressed satisfaction over the year's start and at the same time predicted a return to a buyer's market.

"The honeymoon is just about over. We in the lumber business are returning to a market based on competition and service to the consumer. We are doing all we can to meet this challenge, for only the more efficient mills can survive."
