Thirty Acre Site, Near Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, Adj
Property, .Has Been Purchased and All
oining Westinghouse
Paid for.
A lease was signed Wednesday by the COIN MA
CHINE MANUFACTURING COMPANY, for the prop
ertj at the corner of Grand avenue and Iloyt street, where
the first factory of this company will be built at once. Plans
for the building have just been received from the architect.
Tomorrow these plans will be submittedto a contractor for
figures and building will start as soon as it is possible to
do so.
This plant will be used for immediate work of the
company, such as the making of models, dies, planning the
big plant and attending to such other mechanical details as
may be required.
The COIN MACHINE MANUFACTURING COM
PANY has bought and paid for 30 acres of property near
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, whero the permanent plant will
be built. This site adjoins that of the Westinghouse Elec
tric & Manufacturing Compaq-, which is 70 acres in extent
and was recently purchased by that company at a cost of
5250,000.
It is in this factory that the machines will be made and
it is expected that the building wrill be completed and ma
chines ready for distribution within two years.

who are familiar with the businesslike and effective man
ner in which its affairs have been managed since its incep
tion are enthusiastic over the magnificent future which
seems so certain. Every day adds to the certainty of suc
cess. The machine is perfection. There is no opportunity
f qr improvement, as it thoroughly covers the field for
which it is designed. Demand for it is already stimulated.
Letters from all parts of the country are asking for prices
and reservations. The stock sales are increasing every
day, bringing the time of dividend paying closer and closer
every twenty-four hours.
The character of men and women who are investing In
the stock of this company evidences the fact that a machine
has been designed, at last, that answers every demand of
the greatest of modern institutions, the department store oij
America. Of equal interest, also, is the fact that there is
not a store in the world that cannot use such a device,
creating a demand which is equal to that of any office ap
pliance that has been placed upon the market in many years.
