Description
Christmas 1916 Monrovia Daily News. "In July came the announcement of the organization of the Solar Heater Company, to be promoted and managed by W. J. Bailey who had leased the Paul Bachert Building, where the heater was to be manufactured and sold. Mr. Bailey absorbed the "California (Walker) Solar Heater," by the purchase of patents. The use of solar heat in tropical countries to supply residences with hot water has been very highly developed by Mr. Bailey, and his company, now oper- ating under the name of Day and Night Heater Company, has achieved a high degree of success." John L. Wiley, History of Monrovia, 1927 p 112.
