rounding hills OF the city are crowned,
,5are is one thing Of which the city is
mstIy proud, that is, her Industries.
Worcester would not be today the
,tv of thriving merchants, iron and
\ steel manufactures, boot and shoe fac
iories and innumerable other projects

and ingenuity of her sons in perfect
y ing their thousands of inventions that
tighten toll, reduce the cost of produc-
lions and ultimately the selling price of
4 the goods, thereby creating a larger
market for the same.
Worcesters chief source, and it might
he said the only source, of her pros
4 rerity today is the many manufactur-
4 ing industries that are thriving within
+ her borders Naturally Worcester
should be justly proud of the product
nj the genius of her sons. Nothing is
thought so much of as that which we
K originate ourselves and which we see
grow from day to day till at last it has
reached the height of perfection and is
admired by all the world. In this
respect Worcester has made an envia-

the year some Of the products of the
skilled local labor leaves this city for
} some distant part of the world. The
/. name of Worcester, Mass" stamped
on a piece of machinery is a guarantee
& Of perfection in. every detail. a4...5t

cester manufacturers who are Compel

Z s0Wsin taking advantage of it, and al
& ready many have signified their inten-
ton Of exhibiting.
It is impossible at this early day
to say just who from this city is to
