Yesterday afternoon Emil J. Wey rich returned home from a visit of some two weeks in the east where he visited among other places the great Thomas A. Edison plant at Orange, New Jersey, the Eastman Kodak Co. at Rochester. New York, and also the Bau.sch-Lomb Optical Co. plant at Rochester as well. This trip was one that binc-d business as well as fir 'Mr. Weyrich and lie fullest advantage of the occasion to view :he many points of interest and particularly the large industries whose products are handled here by the firm of Weyrich & Hadraba. He first went direct to New York and between the trip across the Hud son to the Edison plant at Orange, he found time to view the great city of the western hemisphere. At Or ange he visited the Kdison establish ment at thoroughly as the regula tions would permit an dwas able to enjoy a trip through the private lab ratory of Mr. Edison and to see the wizard of the present age in his work. Mr. Weyrich was taken thru the entire processes that are re'iuiied in the building of one of the marvel ous Edison instruments that have added a great chapter to the re-creation anl preservation of the human voice and the musical instruments, in the record that is used on the Edison phonograph and the wonder ful processes by which the repro ducing machinery is made was cer tainly one that will long be remem bered. He was also in the department where the diamond style grinding is carried on and where the points are prepared for placing in the Edison instrument.;. The record pressing fle partment was closed at the time Mr. Weyrich was at Orange and he was unable to see what ho desired oi this branch of the work, but this department is always closed as many of the processes used are secret. At Kodak. Park at Rochester he witnessed the malting of the kodaks and other machines of the Eastman company, being shown over the us ual route of the idle sightseer and in addition getting an insight many phases of the work that general public seldom sees. lie the process of manufacturing Graflex camera, the highest perfec tion in the photographic machine line and was alsj in the plant of the Hawkeys lens company, which is now j being used by the Eastman company to equip their iik. hines with and this plant is now turning out the anastigmatic lens used in the kodaks and cameras. The Eastman people also have their own plant foi paper making where rags and wood pulp enter at one end and the finished Azo, Velox and other lines of photo graphic print paper are turned out all ready for patrons. At the IJaiisch-I-rfHJib Optical com pany plant which is the largest op tical goods plant in the world, Mr. Weyrich found that the company have developed their processes so that they manufacture their own op tical glas and are no longer depend ent on Germany for glass as they were in the past. While on his trip Mr. Weyrich secured some 200 snap shots which he will soon have on exhibition at tiie store. While in Rev best or Mr. Weyrich visited at tins home of Mr. and Mrs. I,. W.
