Industry is the foundation of all development

Industry is the foundation of all development. From the remote past when the farmer ground his corn between the two granite stones, until his brain conceived the idea of enlisting other agencies than human muscle and invented the mill substituting the latent powers of Nature to assist him in his enterprise industrial evolution has brought civilization up to it's present high point of achievement
 And as the fuller built his mill by the river side where he could sink his shaft and utilize the power there going to waste so all great in dustrial centers have been built up because of the natural advantages at hand, and it is not be- ittling the efforts of the worthy gentlemen of the aggressive local Board of Trade, to credit largely the rapid development and growth of our city to our own Natural resources

way transportation facilities, growth came nat urally and normally, until we have reached the position of the second city in size in the state. Further progress and development depend upon how generously these industries are supported by the general public. Only short time ago, her Royal Highness, Queen Mary Of the English Court, placed an order with local manufac- turer for tMade in Bridgeport product. If any of the firms represented on this Industrial directory supply articles "good enough" for Queen Mary they certainly ought to have the patronage of every man and woman who are in. terested in the future development of these in dustries. When in need of any of the articles we suggest that you insist that the "Made in Bridgeport" brand is delivered so doing you will. best serve yourself and the City of which you are unit only but an important factor in it's future development.
