A VISIT TO G. B. THoMPsoNs ESTABLISH
MENT.
The editor OF The BEE visited for the
frat time, the: other day, the elegant
business establishment of Charles Bridge.
water Thompson of Bridgewater Center,
and was amazed at what he beheld. Mr.
Thompson has erected here q business
block, which for elegance of appoint
ment and finish has hardly It's equal in
Litchfield county. 1t is d three story
structure counting the basement, with q
tower on one corner in which are the pri-
vate offices of Mr. Thomson. The writer
was kindly escorted through the build
ing by Mr. Thompson. The first floor re-
minds one of banking estab lishment, be-
ing filed up with counters and bronze
railing. Here in this room work the
clerks who look after the books. In the
rear is an automatic elevator, which
reaches both the basement and the rooms
where the various preparations he has
for sale are packed and made ready for
shipment. In the basement is his labora-
tory, gas plant, etc.
1t seems strange, but it Ia fact new
ertheless, that Mr. Thompson furnishes
employment for 30 people all told, and
that as the result of the magnitude OF his
business, the Bridgewater postoffice was
vRised from an office paving not more
than 5000 year to the presidential class
with q salary of $1,000, IL we are not mis-
taken. 1t is no wonder Mr. Hatch likes
to see his genial neighbor prosper.
How has Mr. Thompson accomplished
this splendid result? We did not ask to in
spect his books, or his bank account, bur
common sense shows that it is in having
saieable preparations for the market and
In judicious and extensive advertising.
These three principles are undoubtedly
the foundation stones of his success. IT
the spring Mr. Thompson has still further
plans for enlargipg his business. He
will build on In the rear TO provide fol
storage, etc. Meanwhile bis neighbors
