The club members have been fitting their animals on the in side, during the summer, with plenty of good proper food, but they must now begin fitting the outside of the dairy animal. Thesv young boys and girls will be brushing their animals each day; this loosens dead hair. They will be leading their animals each day to get the animals use to a show halter as w'ell as use to be ing led by that club member at a steady gait. These boys and girls will be practicing poising their animals to stand properly just as the judge will require on show day at the fair.

Higgins, Kendall president, announced today. The building, to be located in the Car mel Country Club section of the city about two miles from Pine 7 ville, is scheduled for construction by early winter and for occupancy in September of 1960. The new facility, to replace the present ten-year-old Kendall Building at 521 East Morehead Street, will provide for the expan sion of the staff of the recently- created Kendall Company’s Tex tile division, as well as a consoli dation of divisional functions. The divison has a cotton mill in Alabama and six cotton mills and a new $8,000,000 finishing plant in South Carolina. “Formerly,” Mr. Higgins said, “our textile research and develop ment staffs have been separated from the divisional headquarters; The new building is planned tq permit a greater concentration on textile research, which we expect will contribute even more signi ficantly than it has in the past. Almost one third of our space will be devoted to textile research and development, where we ■will con solidate research functions now being performed in three separate company laboratories, including the facility that has been operat ing at Paw Creek, North Caro lina. We are enthusiastic about the building; we are pleased to continue a company location in Charlotte where we have many friends—and we wish that we could move in tomorrow.” Architect J. Norman Pease and Company of Charlotte has set the 30,000 - square - foot, one - story structure at the edge of a fifty- acre plot of land. The building, to be air-conditioned throughout, will be of contemporary design with a distinctive overhanging roof line and shadow walls of brick lattice work at the sides. More than twice as many peo ple will be employed in the new building as are now working at the company’s present offices, Lawrence A. Savage, Kendall vice president and manager of its Textile division, said. “We are going to have three times as much floor space in the new location,” he said, “and we expect to have ample room to increase our staff from the seventy people now em ployed to 180. Machine account ing, IBM and other departments in the divisional offices will be expanded.” The Kendall Company has an annual payroll of approximately $12,000,000 in the South. It is an integrated company with the Textile division producing fabrics for manufacture into consumer and industrial products. The com pany aiso sells textiles to convert ers, garment makers and various industrial outlets. The first south ern plant, acquired by the com pany in 1917, was the Addison Mill in Edgefield, South Carolina. This year the Kendall Company opened a new plant. to produce elastic goods at Seneca, South Carolina. Besides textiles and non- woven fabrics, Kendall manufac tures surgical dressings, elastic stockings and polyethylene tapes.
