Elgin Watch Company Entertains Royally

During our Third National Convention, Elgin National Watch Company acted as host for a half day to all our delegates.

The entire assembly left for Elgin Tuesday, April 27, at 10:30 in large buses furnished by the Elgin Company.

The motor trip was a real treat to all and furnished a means of relaxation.  Upon arrival in Elgin, the group was taken directly to the Elgin Country Club, some miles beyond the city, and enjoyed a most wonderful chicken dinner in the beautiful surroundings, of the club, after which the group was returned to Elgin and started their trip through the largest watch factory in the world, a revelation to those who had never had an opportunity to view the inner workings of such a plant.

The delegates emerged from their tour of inspection wiser but tired from the long walk, covering miles of interesting production. 

We wish to again thank The Elgin National Watch Company and its officials for their courtesies.
