Headqu change but wh. view w made a which i the ma The Metal Craft Company commenced business in March 1915, and since then has made very satisfactory progress, so much so, that it was recently deemed advisable to reâ€"organize the Company in order to take care more effectually of the business that was being offered;, It was therefore decided to incorporate the Company, and at the presâ€"< ent moment the application for Charter is in the Hands of His Honâ€" our, The Lieutenant Governor of the Province of Ontario. / The Village is entirely protected as to the amount of the proposed mortgage loan, namely $6,000. When the proposed factory: is completâ€" ed, the value of the property and building alone will be worth more than the amount of the Loan, and when the machinery is installed the next day, no loss to the Village would occur. The Company have already arranged for three of the Chief Facâ€" tors necessary in the organization of a successful business, namely, the General and Financial Management, the Sales Management, and the Mechanical Superintendent, all of which departments are under capable hands. A To the V oters of the Villâ€" age of Grimsby Mi â€"The Metal Craft Company is the only company making a full line of hospital equipment in Canada, and there is a protective tariff of 42% per cent. on these goods coming into Canada from the United States. * £ The Community needs every reliable manufacturing industry it can secure; if it were not for the few industries we have in our midst with a weekly pay roll of over $2,500, do you not think that Grimsby would be a pretty dull place? o A few samples of the Company‘s products may be seen in the show windows of Mr. J. C.
