Shank Firm Kept Busy

in a closet. Lamps and shades are placed in cartons. “Our work is in reality ‘glorified

Mrs. Shank reports that, because of the war, the Shank Fire- |

proof Warehouse Co. is being kept busy packing and shipping by long-distance moving vans the belongings of many persons who are transferred to army, navy or marine duties somewhere outside the city. Likewise there has been an influx of household goods for stor-

Mrs. Shank said, “but of course much of this kind of work comes and goes so that whereas the warehouse might be full today, tomorrow there will be places for the household goods of a dozen families, There is room for one more.” Years of experience at the Shank Fireproof Warehouse Co. have brought the packing and storing technique to a fine point. For example, all the rugs, draperies and upholstered pieces are first placed in a vault of laminated metal. Lethal gas, injected into the vault, kills every moth and every moth egg, but does not injure the fabrics. Overstuffed furniture is then™ wrapped in heavy kraft paper and sealed, carefully numbered and placed on metal racks in a department used only for that furniture. Rugs are wrapped and put in burglar-proof, moth-proof vaults
