MIXING TWO KINDS OF GLUE
A. L. EBBELS HAS BUSINESS BIRTHDAY
Vegetable and Animal Glues Cannot Be Mixed
Successfully, Though Manufacturers Have En-
deavored to Find a Way of Doing It
Celebrated Twenty-sixth Anniversary of Entry
Into Felt and Hardware on Thursday—As
Well Known in Canada as in the States
The query, "Can Vegetable and Animal Glue
Be Mixed?" is not a new one. Hundreds of
manufacturers and glue users have asked the
same question and tried to solve it.
If both glues were heated or both in a cold
solution, this would be possible, but it must be
remembered that animal glues are heated for
from 140 to 150 degrees. We know that vege-
table glues are manufactured from carbohy-
drates containing amylocellulose or its equiva-
lent, and we know that such glues are splendid
adhesives for veneering, but each kind of glue
is in a class by itself, the chemical combinations
are different, and they should not be mixed.
Would you combine an ox and a horse as a team
tu pull your trucks, drays or other delivery ve-
hicles?
Vegetable glues are indeed very welcome, es-
pecially in these days of the shortage of ani-
mal glues, and the vegetable glue is dependable.
Again, vegetable glues possess advantages of
permanency to weather and temperature varia-
tions which are superior to those of animal
glues, but we cannot mix these glues and expect
to enjoy the advantages of the two glues by so
doing.
With a career of twenty-six years to his
credit, in whic.h time he has become an expert
in all matters pertaining to the manufacture and
merchandising of felt and hardware, Albert L.

A. L. Ebbels
Ebbels, of the American Piano Supply Co.,
whose Eastern offices are at 114 East Thir-
teenth street, New York, is receiving congratu-
lations on his anniversary, which occurs this
month. Not only is Mr. Ebbels well and fa-
vorably known throughout the United States,
but he has also traveled extensively through
Canada, and is one of the most popular travel-
ing men from the States who "carry on" in
that territory.
To resort to dates June 20 was the exact day
upon which Mr. Ebbels celebrated his twenty-
sixth anniversary in this line of business. In
1892 on that day he became identified with Al-
fred Dolge, of Dolgeville, N. Y., and when the
name of the firm was changed to Alfred Dolge
& Son Mr. Ebbels still remained.
He later
YORK
became connected with the organization of the
American Felt Mfg. Co. This was in 1898.
Later he went with the American Felt Co. of
Xew Jersey, and then the American Felt Co. of
Massachusetts. In 1913 he commenced his ac-
tivities with the American Piano Supply Co. of
Massachusetts, and in 1915 became identified
with the American Piano Supply Co. of Con-
necticut, with whom he is connected at present.
The Review joins his many friends in extend-
ing hearty congratulations to him.
