NOVELTY WORKS
INCREASE CAPACITY
Will Enlarge Building, Install New
Machinery and Electric Lights.
Employ More Men

r. Alden of Waukeegan, Ill.,, was
in the city the first of the week and
made arrangements with his brother,
who has been operating the Novelty
Works in the southwest part of the city,
for an enlargement of the business to
the extent of putting it upon a much
more profitable basis.
The building is to be enlarged to ac-
comodate additional machinery which
will be installed at once. Among the
new machines is short logging mill
for saving bolts. The change will ne
cessitate the employment of several
more men. Electric lights will be put
in, so that the factory will run the full
ten hours during the winter months.
John Alden, son of the elder Alden
will move here from Waukeegan next
week to work with his brother A. NJ,
who has been working with his uncle
here the past six months.
