OAKYILLE HAPPENINGS.
INDUSTRIAL BOOM PREDICTED
 FOR OAKvILLE SOON.

The Baird Machine Co Making Things
 Lively-Two .Masquerades Planned
 For-Demand Still Increasing for q
 Public Waiting Room-Notes. Since Charles Warner, Jr, has as- stunned the active management or the Baird Machine Go this concern is rap | idly becoming quite an important tac- tor in the commercial life of the Vii lage Mir Baird, who is we'll advanced in years, was hardly able to devote the proper amount of time to the business department of the concern, and the ln- troduction of the younger man in this capacity has proven fruitful in re- suits. Mir Warmers active tendencies and wide-awake business ideas have served to bring the factory into adtll- l tional prominence throughout the coun- l try by way of advertising and ''sound- l ing the trumpet" which appears now l to be taking effect by way of an ln- creased stimulus to all of the different branches of the concern, and many | thousands of dollars of work is being | figured on with a considerable amount under construction. The company IS ] advertising in this issue of the Even l ing Democrat for q first class machln- 1 ist. and if things result favorably in the near future the company will find it necessary to employ several addi- tionaI hands in order to handle the l work and get it out on time. The day | is not far distant when the reputation | of the Baird Machine Go will be ex- tended from one end of the country to | the other and as q consequence the i village will profit continually by the l increasing growth and importance Of | this industry.
 We would like to see the day when | the hundreds of people who are enl- l ployed i'll the pin factory locate in Oak | vile permanently and add to the pro- l gressiveness and growth of the viii lage. There is nothing like village i'm provement. and the bulk of this money | paid out in wages. if kept within the village, would soon place it on a | standard of prOgessiveness second to no village in the state.
 It appears to be practically assured | that Oakyille will soon have an out l going noon mail.
 Charles Haight has resumed his du- ties on the road.
 There will be no more road repairs 1 in this section until after the annual town election next month. The demand for public waiting | room or shelter of some character at | the local end of the trolley terminus still increases and if something isn't done for the benefit of the patrons of | the road before winter there will be a general howl of disapproval and re monstrance. Now that it is almost ' sfain l0f I1n made before next year, some shelter should be afforded the general public
 while waiting for the cars.
 Still another masquerade ball will | be given next month. The date is Fri | day evening. October 9. and Charles ] Hubbell and Adelma Therault will manage the affair. Cams orchestra has been engaged to furnish music sad l a prize will be awarded to the person 1 wearing the worst looking costume. | The affair will be held in J.udd's hall. Admission tickets costing 25 cents may be obtained of the committee.
 Mrs Charles Mosgrove has returned from her vacation, having spent most | enjoyable time.
 Charles Kelly. the popular baggage master at the local railroad station. is expected home to-day from vaca- ton spent at Big Moose. N. r., among the Adirondack mountains. | Mrs Loughlin has found a mans straw hat, almost new. size GA. which
 was left in Judd's hall after the recent dance.
 Members of the Oakville Stars are planning for dance to be held in the near future celebrating the closing of ! q successful base ball season. Ar rangements will be announced later. l Miss Grace Garlick of New Jersey | is visiting Mrs Charles Warner, Jr, and Mrs John NJ. Atwood.
 Charles Hubbell. Alec Baer and Charles Conrad will give masquerade dance inJudd's hall on Friday evening. October 4. Quite an attractive program has been arranged and the committee is posting this vicinity with advertis- ing matter. Cams orchestra will ren- der music. Masquerade dances are al-
 ways good drawing cards in OakvilIe, l and it has been some time since an af- l fair of this kind has been given, on ac- count of the hot weather. Everybody
 is invited to attend and to endeavor 10 bring out some funny as well as uniqne costume. The dance will be we'll worth attending.
 Out of respect to the memory of our late beloved and respected president, the entire factory of the Oakville Pin Go is silent for the day. The Baird
 Machine Go closed for the day also.
 A large number of Oakvflle people | went down to the fair grounds this 1 morning.
 At the supper in the Union church Tuesday evening q pocketbook belong
 ing to Mrs Baner's mother was lost.
 It contained considerable sum of
 money.
