SAWDUST BURNERS
For All Homes
Fresh, clean sawdust, direct from the saws: of a lumber
mill, provides efficient, inexpensive heat for the home. Saw
dust from green logs makes the best fuel and it should be
damp. Furnaces equipped with sawdust burners are easier to
stoke and provide a more uniform temperature than when you
burn wood, and your fires last longer without refueling. Saw
dust, because of the plentiful supply in the Pacific Northwest,
is the most economical fuel available. Sawdust has been in use
as a fuel for many years, not only in home furnaces and hot
water heaters, but also for industrial plants, schools, office and
other buildings. There is a sawdust burner attachment for
almost any size furnace. We were the first steel furnace manu
facturer west of the Rockies. In the beginning, we adopted
a policy of building the best possible furnace we could and we
have maintained that policy ever since. You will find the same
careful brand of workmanship in our sawdust burners as so
many thousands have found in the past 36 years in our furnaces
and in the many other metal jobs we have done.

meats in the car thai has already won the whole
hearted endorsement of more than million enthusi
astic owners and friends.
Foremost among these advancements is the great
General Motors Hydra-Made Drive now offered as
optional equipment on all Pontiac cars. Pontine is the
lowest-priced car in the world to provide this great
mechanical masterpiece which shifts gears auto
matically, and completely eliminates the dutch pedaL
Coupled with this great engineering triumph is a
striking improvement in beauty and luxury. New
exterior smartness extends from the new radiator
grille o the streamlined rear bumper.
Interiors, too, are remarkably improved. Upholsteries
are more beautiful and are expertly blended to achieve
new attractiveness and charm. Instrument panels are
finished in a smart design adapted from quarter-sawed
mahogany and an adroit use of chrome moulding
adds a deft tooch of modernity.
Engine and chassis have been refined wherever
possible but they remain, basically, the same engi
neering masterpieces which have become synonymous
la the automotive Industry with goodness and
dependability. g -
