C. F. MARTIN GUITAR FACTORY NAZARETH BORO Dating back to 1740, Nazareth, the earliest settled of the Joint Area Districts, extends over an area of 1.7 square miles with a population of 5810. From this district come 184 of the 475 students attending the Area Senior High School. Industries are varied, including milling, steel fabrication, and the manufacture of cement, paper boxes, textile products, and musical instruments. Back in 1859 a German craftsman, C. F. Martin, began the manu- facture of quality guitars. The successor to this early craftsman is the present C. F. Martin and Company, which produces monthly between 1000 and 1200 guitars and fretted, stringed musical instruments. These instruments are shipped all over the United States, to Canada, and as far as Hawaii. ADMINISTRATION FACULTY
