in his profession is furhished by
Mr. Henry Kohner, the well-known
local ,architect. During .a short

established an enviable reputation
as a gifted architect. Some of the
buildings designed by him are: The
Dubois Apartments, 77 Prentis
avenue, and a new fifty-two apart-

ill

ment building to be erected for
Albert Zaks.

Mr. Kohner was born in Hun-
gary in 1886. He is a graduate of

The Human Equation in
Good Axle Building

. It takes 3633 separate operations to make a Timken-
Detroit Rear Axle for pleasure cars-588 operations to
make a front axle for pleasure cars.
A majority of these operations require accuracy within
half a thousandth part of an inch.
The great Timken-Detroit plant is equipped with the
latest automatic machinery and the most accurate jigs,
tools, gauges and measuring instruments. As far as can be
done the possibility of human error is eliminated in the
making of the parts. That is Timken policy..- ,.
But it never will be possible to entirely, or even really
very largely, eliminate the human equation from the manu-
facture of a complex article such as the rear axle of an ante-
mobile. The wonderfully exact machines must he set by
men. The parts must be inspected after each operation, by
men. The completely assembled axle must be tested by
men.
- It all comes right down to the man-stuff of the organi-
zation.
It is demonstrated fact, not mere theory, that there is a
limit to the number of new men who can be,"` absorbed"
into the Timken-Detroit Organization. Men who can get
the Timken Spirit.
And it is demonstrated fact the Spirit is even more
necessary to the production of Quality than are machinery,
ki capital.
