A Mother Who Lost a

her small children a play garment which
she called rompers, Soon her neighbors.
then her neighbours neighbors besieged
her FOR patterns-so she asked her hus,
band. who was superintendent Of an
overall factory, to have the pattern
maker cut her a hundred from the one
she gave him. This coming under the
observation of the proprietor of the
business he shrewdlv reasoned that
garment So popular in a small circle
would certainly be IN demand elsewhere
if introduced, so made up line of
samples for each of his travelling men,.
Two years later a large additional fac
tory was erected-which has since been
doubled in size-to take care Of his
great business.
Today there are some twenty manu-
facturcrs of similar garments, and they
all call them ''rompers. Had this

WILL VOTE THEBONDS

A few persons are inclined to think
that the people of Caldwell are dis
posed to vote down the proposed bond
issue to extend the city water system.
The Tribune is convinced that such
persons are misinformed in the pre-
misses. 1t would indeed, be foolhardy
for the people of Caldwell to vote
against this bond issue. The City
Council has issued bonds and entered
into a contract for a sewerage system
on the south side of town that will
cost 100000. The contractors are
now at work on this sewerage system.
a failure 10 vote the proposed bonds
means that this sixty thousand dollars
will be spent to absolutely no purpose.
Without an extension of the water sys-
TEN the sewerage system will be of
absolutely no value. 1t cannot be used
at all. To invest $50, 100000 in a sew
erage system and then fail to provide
water would be the height Of the ridicu-
