The Simpson Co., besides Its showing of Ford cars, will show a snow-white hammer, the special features being that it can be used in any place where tt screw can and It thereafter becomeB a permanent hole. These are theflrst ready-made screw-holes to be put on the market, and rnm the opinions of mechanics who hare tried them out they are due to meet with considerable sate and success. This Invention is a groat timesaving device. Ever si nor the first screw was used trouble has lieeh enaountered Itv the, driving ef cither wood screws or machine screws In every Wnd of materials.
