Mr. Clare E. Glasby, manager of this company in looking for a new commodity to offer his trade, became interested in the phenominal sales in other parts of the country of a product known as "Beatsall" Leather Mats. This material is manufactured by the Leather Mat Manufacturing Company, at San Francisco, and it is an interesting piece of merchandise. Constructed of specially cut, heavy sole leather into pliable mats of any size or shape, heavily reinforcecl with wire to insure long life, these mats are used for manv purposes where it has been the custom to use the old style heavy steel mats. Country clubs, restaurants, hotels, banks and many other institutions are eagerly buying tiris as a covering for floors and stairs that are used considerably. Mr. Glasby states that the material is also well suited in small ,mats to be used at the entrance to homes, and that the trade has accepted the line very satisfactorily.
