This building is very large and and many people are employed to @o the work. There were some men out- #de Joading the automoblles with large boxes. Theme larze boxes were packed with the or y size choco- late boxes, and perhs other aiffer- ent stzes. thing must be kept in a sani- v condition in the imterior of this building, as from the outside anyome glancing up at the open windows, could see u great many Women wear- ing ail White. They had white dress- aprons little caps. 1 was quite prised to see them. They. were all busy filling the chocolate boxes. A little farther on from Huyler's building.
