THE new planning mill of Mcssrs Michael
& Griffith will probably begin operations
early next week. A portion Of the ma
chncry has arrived and been put into po-
sition. The remainder is on the road, and
its arrival daily expected.
A noticeable fixture of this establishment
is a substantial steam engine, built by Mr.
X. G. Paul, of Frostburg-: piece of work
which reflects credit on the maker and
those who value home manufacture high
enough to encourage it.
The building and furnishing of an estab-
lshment like Michael Il Griffith's in times
like these, when the tendency is to discour-
age enterprise by the cry of "hard times"
is worthy of all praise. In this category
we might include Mcssrs. Gross, Nickel &
Bro, who are still at work, completing and
identifying their large furniture building.
All such deserve rich rewards
