Six Years' Progress at the Phillips' Plant Periodical Building Extensions an Unfailing Indication of the Demand for this Firm's Products--Provision of Additional Facilities how Under Way CONSPICUOUS factor in the more recent indus- : trial growth of the Ci of Oshawa has been the opment of the business estab- lished here some six years ago the W. E. Phillips pany, The firm's principal activity is the manufacture of mouldings for interior decora- tion, picture frames, and mir- rors, The manufacture of windshields, bodylights and rear vision mirrors for General Motors has also formed a large of the Company's business gince its incorporation. The growth of the City of Oshawa since 1922 has been a fair barometer of the growth of the Phillips Com- It is only six years ago that ER) 'Phillips took over the property Thornton, Rubber Com- pany on Prospect Street and com- menced manufacturing operations in a small building which was the fore- runner of the extensive plant shown in the illustration, The record of the W. E. Phillips Company has been one of continuous progress. Scarcely a year had elapsed from the time the business was established until it was necessary to make an extension providing 15,- 000 additional square feet, The ex- tension, which took the form of a three-storey mill building, was quick- ly followed by other additions. A new polishing and fitting room was added, a bevelling department was erected, more storage space was pro- vided; withal, further appropriations for building purposes were found necessary from time to time. Coin: cidently with the enlargement of the Oshawa plant there has come the es- tablishment of agencies throughout the Dominion. An idea of the out- put of the Phillip's factory may be gained from the fact that during 1927 over a million feet of lumber were EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF W, E. PHILLIPS, HEAD OF THE CAMPANY used, two and one-half million square feet of plate glass and no less than one million feet of window glass, The general atmosphere of the Phillips plant is a healthy one, em- bodying principles of lighting, heat- ing, ventilation and sanitation which are the foundation of efficiency in the operation of the modern factory, i The W. E. Phillips Company have recently completed a comsiderable addition to the office portion of their building, while the extension of the general plant is now under way. The office addition consists of two storeys and basement and entails. consider- able alterations in the existing build- ing. This extension provides up-to- date office accommodation which will provide for a considerably increased staff. The new Executive offices are an attractive feature of this work, The latest addition to the general plant of the W. E. Phillips Company, imited, ists of a b t an two floors, approximately 150 x 50 feet. Factory construction is em- ployed and continuous daylight steel Nindows are provided on all three sides. It is of interest to record that all work in connection with this factory has been carried out under gener: contract with Ed. Stith, of Oshawa, under the direction of G. Roper Gouinlock, Registered Architect, To- ronto, When it shall be said in any coun- try in the world, "My poor are happy: neither ignorance nor dis- tress is to be found among them; my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars; the aged are not in want, the taxes are not oppres- sive; the rational world is my friend, because I am a friend of its happi- ness"--when these things can be said, then may that country boast of its constitution and its government, --Thomas Paine.
