which he outlined the pitiable condition
OF many man who was willing to
work but unable to secure a position.
Outside the church 5000 persons

the shop, the number varying with the
work and season. Work of all kinds,
repair work especially, Is turned out.
The shop is fitted out as completely,
perhaps. as any establishment of its
size. There are, In use, seven lathes,
all whirring and grinding together, a
deafening symphony to one inside the
shop. There is used, in the shop also,
three drill presses, and one slotter be-
sides the other regular appurtenances
for the machine shop, in proportion
with the main equipment. Electrical
power is used altogether in the work
of the shop.
AT the Capital City Foundry, under
the same management, ten men are
employed. The plant conducts the
general business of a foundry. and pro-
duces the regular work, castings of
any kind and every kind. and of every
size.
At present. about thirty tons of pig
iron each month is used in the work
of the foundry. At times of a greater
rush of business, the consumption is
increa sed, sometimes almost doubled.
Another foundry of Montgomery,
that Of the Montgomery Novelty Works
in West Montgomery, Is unique in it's
way. AS the name implies, novelty is
the keynote of the shop, which is
work IS attempted. but such things as
fiat irons. toys, iron household utensils,
and such, are made.
Enjoy Wide Market.

Montgomery, while built to meet the
exigencies of the city, and while they
are local industries, still the sale of
their output is not conAned to Mont
gomery and the district alone. 1t -
sent to every State of the South, where
avid buyers attest the value and the
worth of Montgomery made products.
Extensive advertising is done by most
of the firms, and thu Inevitable results
are produced in a wide clientele.
The Hartley Boiler Works is an in
dustry which stands alone in the city.
For while attention is paid to the ma
chine shops and the foundry, with
which the works are supplied, the rep
utation of the Arm. a reputation that
is almost national, rests with its boil
er and template construction work.
