Things are humming in Long Beach with
operators picking up new equipment in an-
ticipation of a bumper fall and winter sea-
son.
To get in tune to take care of the rush,
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Richarme, in company
with Mr. and Mrs. Herb McClellan, of Los
Angeles, spent Labor Day holidays at Camp
Arrowhead and took time out to visit Eddie
Seaman, Stuart Metz and Don Pleasant of
the S. & A. Novelty Company in San Ber-
nardino. Joe says the Metz baby girl is a
darling.
William Stone, National City operator,
was in town the first week in September
buying new equipment.
Pirates Day celebration at Balboa on Sep-
tember 8, 9 and 10 found Long Beach op-
erators right in the swing of things with
long beards, side whiskers, and what have
you on their faces.
Ken Willis, Western Products special
representative, is now visiting southern
California operators and showing the new
line of counter games and the famous Base-

Jack A. Thornton, Yuma operator, praised
Baseball to the sky. In the first three days
the machine grossed $25.00 and in the next
three took in over $40.00.
Delivery dates will soon be announced on
the "All Electric" console type cigarette
machine by the M. Brodie Company. After
months of testing on locations, redesigning
by competent engineers, taking the bugs out •
and getting their machine right before it
gets into the hands of the operator, "Steve"
Brodie now thinks the machine is ready to
go out and mop up for cigarette operators .♦

McNeil Opens Offices
In Bay District
OAKLAND-E. C. McNeil, western rep-
resentative for National Vendors, Inc., St.
Louis, Mo., announced this month the
opening of a branch office at 1004 East
12th Street in Oakland to better serve the
merchandise operators of northern Califor-
nia. A complete line of National cigarette
and candy machines is on display for the
convenience of northern operators.
McNeil states that sales on National
equipment have increased so much this
year all up and down the Pacific coast
that he wants to render every service pos-
sible to the many operators who have made
the increased volume possible.
Between his travelling de luxe trailer
show room with which he has been able to
demonstrate National machines to all the
operators in the back country, and his of-
fices in Oakland and Los Angeles to handle
sales and services in the metropolitan areas,
he will come pretty close to rendering one
lrnndred per cent service.

Livingston Joins
Candy Crofters
LANSDOWNE, Pa.-A. S. Livingston,
formerly with the American Chicle Com-
pany and Goudey Gum Company and for
25 years actively connected with the auto-
matic vending industry has joined the
Candy Crafters organization and is setting
up a modern, fully equipped ball gum de-
partment which he anticipates will be in
full production by September 15th.
The gum department will include the
most up-to-date equipment that can be ob-
tained. It will be housed in a newly ac-
quired building of sanitary, daylight con-
struction, devoted entirely to the require-
ments of the vending trade.

Mutoscope Employees Like
New Building
LONG ISLAND CITY-"We believe
that one of the biggest thrills we ever re-
ceived since we've been in business, was to
see the expressions of happiness on the
faces of our many employees when they
reported for work the first day at the new
Mutoscope Building in Long Island City,"
commented Earl Winters, salesmanager for
the firm, on the opening of the new
building.
All departments of the vast Mutoscope
plant are now gathered together under one

roof.
