Shoa Shop am the Roage
It MAT aurprue you to loin that a
cobbler’s shop runs daily at the Ford
Rouge plant in Dearborn. But the
Ford plant is full of surprises. Every
one bas a practical answer.
Hundreds of workers in the
Rouge require special types of foot
! wear. Diese the company furnishes.
So a steady stream of worn-out foot
wear reaches the Rouge cobblers.
and the busy tap-tap of their ham
mers joins the rhythm of ten-ton
presses and heavy rolling mills. \
The cobbler’s shop is one part of
the great drive that prevents waste
in the Rouge. Lumber from ineom-
« L . ' T•
mg crates is sorted and used for
outgoing shipments. Waste paper
and wood chips go to the Rouge
paper mill. Metal particles removed
by grinding wheels and metal saws
are reclaimed. Nothing is lost—
nothing wasted.
All this plays a part in making
finer; better Ford cars. Pennies saved
are pennies earned. Multiplied at
the Rouge into millions, they help
build the value that keeps millions
of Fords delivering dependable,
economical service year after year.
