(Continued from Page 44) general appearance of the office building is that of a very handsome home rather than a business building. The ouiside walls are covered with thin split Redwo6d shingles, and the roof is one inch thick split and beveled Reddood shakes. ,The signs on the office lre particularly attractlve, being..all of unusu_al character. The rnain iign ..Hammond" over the office door is lettered with s;iiln wood, imbedded in stucco. The street number on the corner is of sand-blasted Redwood. They look sreat.

'The inside of the office is 54 by 36, most of which is one big and airy work room, sales room, and customers' room. Along ole end there are two private offices. At the othcr end is the hardware departrnent, only partly partitioned from the main room-

The doors are of sand-blasted Redwood. Even the sash in the windows are all Redwood. The walls of the entirc interior are beautifully done sand-blasted Redwood panels. Every other panel has the letter H sand blasted irito thc center. These panels reach to within three feet of the ceiling,, and the upp€r wall space, and the ceiling itself, is covered with Insulite, laid in squares, and each corner held in place by wooden rosettes turned out of R.edwood. It makes a beautiful ceiling.

Across the front of the big center room there is a counter sepafating the office force from the entrance, and the front of this big counter holds a series of small showcases fronted with glass, in which are displayed very beautiful examples of builders' hardware. Each of theie cases is electrically lighted, giving a pleasing effect, and the back of each of these little show cases is panelled with difierent kinds of hardwoods. This is the only wood displayed in the office except Redwood.

The hardware department is a small but finely equipped one at one end of the office opposite the private -offiies, and the plan book department is in one corner of that side. There are flower boxes outside each window with flowers in bloom, and there are attractive shrubs all around the bullding, giving it a very homelike look.

Mr, O. D. Adams, Manager of this yard, is very justly proud of the new office and plant. So is A. tt. Culnoa, oi
