CANDY WORKS GROWS
Continued from First Page. J


Only a small portion of his entire,
product is sold through the Reynolds
vile store, though it's stock gives a
fair idea of the line of goods manu-
factured on the floor above.
The department which is least known
to local people, and which is yet more
important from the standpoint of its
possible growth than all the others, is
the wholesale branch, started In small
way, this has grown to such dimensions
that Mr.. Athenian now rents the large
room back of the First National bank
on Fourth street. as a storage room and
headquarters for the wholesale division.
Representatives of the Reynolds
vile Candy Works are travelling over
the territory between Kittapning and
Ridgway constantly and have built up
large and permanent trade. Mr..
Athenian finds it easy to compete with
the large city factories both In price
and quality and is planning to still
further enlarge his business in this
line.
u The purpose of this article is not to
advertise any' local business project,
but to make known to our people the
facts connected with the growth of the
venture which are not visible to the
public, and for this reason it is unneces.
sary to say anything concerning the
retail department of the business.
That Mr.. Athenian equipped one Of the
brightest and cleanest and most. invit-
ing places In the country for the local
traue is known to all who have passed
his place and been lured by the blazing
electric lights and melody Of the
electric automatic piano into the
parlor.
The secret Of the success of this
project is nothing more than the fact
that the man at its head understands
his business thoroughly and is pushing
it day and night. Mr.. Athenian came
to Reynoldsville when the prospect for
the town was not any brighter than at
present and went after the business be
wanted and got it. II every other
business institution in the town was
conducted with the energy and ambit-
ion to grow which has characterized
this since its establishment, the cry OF
hard times would soon cease and Reyn.
oldsville would become the biggest
wholesale and retail center in this
section, a position to which its location
naturally entities it.

NEED OF A NEW MUNICIPAL
BUILDING.

It will not be an easy matter to
finance the erection OF a new and suit
able municipal building in Reynolds
vile at present, but that possibility
does not alter the fact that the present
building used as polling place, as a
headquarters for the fremen, as a lock.
up and for other municipal purposes,
is disgrace to the town and unworthy
OF mining village In the backwoods Of
Indiana county. Built some twenty
years ago, it is a relic of the false prin.
ciples OF economy that guided the local
council In the olden days. The build.
ing and tower adjoining It, which coun-
Gil has decided to repair, should be
razed to the ground and new structure
befitting the Importance of the town,
with ample space TO accommodate all
the borough departments, erected.
There are reasons for action In
this matter more pertinent than mere
pride. Those who have investigated
the cells where prisoners are incarcer-
ated describe them as unfit for such a
purpose, with stencil that is sugges-
tive of filth and which cannot be eradi-
Gated. Some day those cells may get
the borough into a damage suit more
costly than new bastile.
Further, the present building is too
small to house even the present appara-
tus of Hope Fire Company, and the
council pays out annually large sum
for rent which would go far towards
paying the interest on bonds issued to
defray the cost OF erecting structure
large enough to house all branches of
the municipal service.

TRADE TERRITORY.

The trade territory of town is not
dependent upon the distance to neigh
boring trading points. The trade terri
tory depends upon the enterprise OF the
merchants and the residents OF the
town. Ii a town does not reach after
the trade, 1t will come only as fast as it
has to, and it viii grow as 1t is forced
to. But If the merchants 20 after
business in the surrounding country,
advertising In every possible way, and
making good every word of their
advertising, trade will come from an
eyer increasing radius, the town will
gain reputation for being awake and
1t will forge to the front. It's the men
in the town, and not altogether the
men living within a certain number of
miles from it that makes the town.

due notso much to lack of popular ap-

GIRL FIGHTS DEPORTATION

ABOLISH GRADE CROSSINGS
Unanimity in Demand from All
Boroughs at P. S. G. Hearing.

Citizens from all boroughs appeared yes
terday at hearing before the Public Ser
vice Commission condemning emphatically
all grade crossings Of railroads and de-
handing their elimination.
Commissioners Eustis and Maltbie were
present at the hearing with Commissioner
Bassett, who presided. Mr.. Bassett ex-
planned that every citizen might have a
chance to be heard on the matter and that
the commission needed the cooperation Of
the public to secure from the Legislature
additional appropriations to do away with
the most dangerous crossings.
Ex-Judge William n. Cohen said that the
existence Of 457 grade crossings within
greater New York was an affront to civ
ilization. There are $500 grade crossings
in the state" he continued, land in my
judgment the law Of this state is most
cunningly devised to bring about inaction
and to continue the present shocking con-
didons. There is to-day no power in any
body to compel a change IN these death
traps"
Mr.. Cohen advocated a law that would
provide steady abolition of grade cross
ings and said that if companies were called
to make large disbursements for this pur
pose it would be a profitable investment to
them, as 1t would save them the pay
ment of damages.
Many men and women followed Mr..
Cohen In the demand for action on grade
crossings. each one giving a drastic de-
scription of those in his own locality.
Commissioner Bassett agreed that all Of
these dangerous crossings should be
changed, but he also pointed out that the
appropriations available from the state are
small and were made for the boroughs OF
Queens and Richmond only.

OH, RARE SIMPLICITY!
Its Coming Often Heralded, but
Still It Is Not Here.

Simplicity which is mich lauded by inc
poets, usually finds little favor with tne
average Individual fashionable or unfasn-
ionable It was declared to be ono OF the
characteristics OF the gowns OF last SUM-
mer. and toward the close of that season
tho announcement was made that 1t was TO
be conspicuous in She modes OF the fall
and winter. The truth of the matter is that
simplicity, when it is allowed any part IN
modern dress has a way Of taking on COM
plexities Of various kinds with remarkable
rapidity and seldom exists except In theory
1t also has propensity for appearing IN
such suise that only the woman who likes
to attract attention can have anything to
do with it.
Just now there is fresh outcry about
simple dress for which a French designer
famous for the holiness OF his Inventions
Is responsible. His gowns have lately at
tracted the attention of those in high places
In Europe and the interest or America has
been aroused. The distinctive features of
these creations it is hard to make compre-
hensible by words, for in some ways they
are like many others that have been shown
this season. They show the influence OF
Greek and Rome. and so do other gowns
They are straight and narrow-which is
IotHil6 HSN-puL tIiSJ nave hOt thS ISA"~N
fish brevity that has been so much faHcled
Of late. The waist, if definitely placed, is
just below the bust, but some of the gowns
are almost straight from the armholes
down, giving only the slightest suggestion
Of the curves of the figure. There are tu-
MICS which are generally straight at the
lower edge and frequently terminate above
the knees, and the sleeves, If they do not
stop above the elbow, are likely to be long
enough TO cover part of the hand. The dec
orations are few but wonderfully effective.
Beautiful and dignified as this latest form
of simplicity is. it IS SO striking that few
women will care to be the first TO take it
UP. Furthermore. there will be many to
whom 1t will be impossible, for these gowns
demand grace and figure bearing some
resemblance to the classic.
