side by side down in the basement of

the entire day going through the con-
tents of the department waste bas-
kets. They are searching for stray
bonds, checks and bills that may
through some mishap have fallen
into the baskets. The positions of the
two women are more important than

Good News for Barton.

A. P. Underwood Of the Peerless
Manufacturing company announces
an increase Of business for the Bar
ton factory. The Newport, IN. H. J
Champion,~ published in the town
where the head factory is located.
says: 1.-The Peerless Manufacturing
company is about to discontinue its
factory at Greenfield. Mass. This
will mean material increase in the
output of the Barton factory, and a
possible increase in the output Of the
Newport factory. There are several
reasons for this change. Among
them is the close proximity of the
Greenfield factory to the railroad
yard. in which shifting is constantly
going on. with the prevailing wind in
the direction of the factory, which
makes it impracticable to work on
white material by reason of dirt.
The scarcity of help and existing la
bor laws in massachusetts, are also
contributing features. Elwin N.
Johnson, who has been superintend-
ent of the Greenfield factory, will
remove to Newport and become asso-
ciated with the Newport factory.
This undoubtedly means much more
work for the local factory and Mr..
Underwood is now looking for more
help.

Watches Moving Fast.

Well, boys how do you like your
watch? A number have said they
were greatly surprised to get SO nice
timepiece for so little work. Some
hovs have earned one after school and
others have done It easily on a Satur-
day. We have had to send for more
watches already and will surely have
watch for every boy and girl who
sends in the required number of sub
scriptions.
The girls are busy also. A number
are after those fine gold watches.
Well, we don't blame them any after
examining the watch thoroughly. 1t
is worth every bit of effort necessary
to secure l6 subscriptions. We are
also getting orders for the pens. We
have not had room each week to run
the cuts and descriptions of these
pens and watches and so you had bet
ter cut these ads out and save them
to refer to. That ladies' pen is fine
one. We have had to send for more
of these too. Better get busy while
the opportunityslasts.
We have decided to let two six
months SUBSCRIPTIONS count as one
yearly. This ought to make it easier
for you. Don't be afraid to ask
everyone to take the Monitor. There
may be some who do not take it now.
Ask them. They will probably take
it for six months anyway.
Write US how you got your sub
scriptions. We may have room to
publish some of your letters. And
we would awfuIly like to know how
YOU like your premium after you get
| it. The editor would like to hear
I from you, boys and girls. Come in
and see the pens and watches if you
