Hemingray Glass Company - Muncie, Indiana

Capacity Increasing and Not Much

Room for Improvement.

From the Commoner and Glass Worker we take the following pleasant reference to Muncie and the glass factories in this city:

Your representative has just completed a very successful as well as a very pleasant canvass among the different factories of Muncie and finds things in such shape that there is no room for much improvement except in capacity which some of them are already increasing.

Ball Bros. are now building six more tanks with a capacity of three pots each in addition to their 8-pot furnace and eight tanks now in operation. The "Old Veteran," Captain Corry, with his three of a kind, manages the transfer department. The only thing he doesn't like about Muncie is the craw-fish in White river. For further information please write him. J. R. Kellock formerly of Beaver Valley successfully manages the furnace, while Mr. Menard has charge of the tanks.

Hemingrays are running full day and night, and things are going very smoothly and every one is satisfied.

All that the much-talked-of trouble amounted to at Maring, Hart & Co.'s was the loss of a couple of turns to the employees; nothing more, and everything is in good shape again.

C. H. Over is making some additions to the factory so as to give the men more room. They have no time for any trouble there.

The Muncie Glass Co. have been as successful as any corporation that ever embarked in the sea of enterprise; they have a nice cool factory and the boys there think they can't better themselves any place else, which is very apparent, for with Mr. Chas. Boldt as president and Isaac Humphrey as manager, success is assured without a doubt. N.
