QUICK SERVICE ON Att ORDER,S OF CUT-TO-5IZE PANETS

Last December at the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association Exposition in Chicago, the Bennett 2-WAY PANEL SA.W Booth was acclaimed by The CALIFORNIA LUMBER MERCHANT (and perhaps by other trade journals) as the third most popular attraction of that tremendous show. Num'ber one was a plywood comprany which had a free lunoh counter, and number two was ,the Model Lumber Store, erected full-size inside the Exhibit Hall.

Ranking third in popularity at this most important of all lumber shows was a real thrill and quite a surprise. Just the other day, however, we were even more pleasantly surprised when we were asked to furnish a 2-rWAY PANEL SAltrT for installation inside this year's Model Store. The Store this year is an exact replica of Lumberteria, Inc., which recently opened in Silverton, Ohio, and which is written up in the Building Supply News for September.

Erection of the 5400-square-foot store room and the installation of the fixtures and stock are under the supervision of one of the country's leading store designe;s ancl merchandising consultants, Joseph Guillozet. For the 2-WAY PANE,L SAWwhich was not even on the market three short vears agoto u'in such a complete and overwhelming acceptance by the NRLDA is testimony that this machine does the job it was designed for: to make it possible for onc man to cross-cut anrl rip large sheets of p1ywood and other par-rel stock quicker and easier than two mcn can on a table saw.

Besides the 2-WAY PANET SAW in the Model Store, we will exhibit three different models of the mochine. Lost yeor's show resulled in so mony orders thot we were noi oble to colch up wilh the bocklog until the end of June. These orders cqme from oll over the country, There is every indicolion thot the results of this yeor's show will greolly excecd losf yeor's.
