TREASURER OF THE KLEISTONE RUBBER CO. 



JOSEPH Everett Stone, treasurer and one of the principal mov- 

 ing spirits of the newly organized Kleistonc Rubber Co., War- 

 ren, Rhode Island, is well fitted for his new undertaking by long 



experience in the footwear and 

 rulilier business. 



Born at Marblehead, Massa- 

 chusetts, in 1876, he was educated 

 in the public schools of that town 

 and began his business career in 

 a general store, where he remained 

 two years. He then entered the 

 shoe jobbing and findings busi- 

 ness in Boston and became cash- 

 ier. After five years he joined 

 the Hood Rubber Co., Water- 

 town, as cashier and assistant 

 ircasurer. Fourteen years with 

 this progressive firm gave him 

 ;in intimate knowledge of rubber 

 footwear manufacture, which was 

 further augmented by seven years 

 as treasurer and a director of the 

 Plymouth Rubber Co., Canton, 

 .Massachusetts, where proofed fabrics, artificial leather and rubber 

 heels were the principal products. 



Early this year Mr. Stone resigned to organize the Kleistonc 

 Rubber Co. in association with M. S. Klein, E. H. Bell and Robert 

 J. Holmes. The modern, well-equipped factory of the Lynn 

 Rubber Co. at Warren, Rhode Island, was taken over and the 

 Spri-Foot rubber heel, the well-known Lynco arch support and 

 sponge rubber heel cushion are bcMig successfully manufactured. 

 The Lynco foot appliances have been on the market for some 

 time and their high standing in the trade will help materially in 

 merchandising the new heel. Output has increased 600 per cent 

 in four weeks and order> are coming in ahead of production. 



Mr. Stone enjoys a wide acquaintance in the rubber and shoe 

 trades and has made many friends through his membership in 

 numerous clubs, associations and fraternal organizations, which 

 include the Boston City Club, Boston Chamber of Commerce, 

 Rubber Association of America, and several Masonic bodies and 

 'lubs in Boston, Marblehead, Lynn, Swampscott and Belmont
