A Great Industry

Our people do not stop to think
/ that among the many and varied
industry with which our enterpris-
ing little city is fortunate to contain
is one which we all should take
great pride and interest in and that
is the -McNaughton Crate Bar Co.
/ We are certainly proud Of each and
every one of our industries, and it
is our intention to visit every plant,
and give them public notice in our
columns, so that those who are
away from here may know just how
many we have. and what they are
doing.
We stopped over at the plant of
the McNaughton Co., the other day
and Mr.. H. H. McNaughton, the
General Manager was kind enough
to show US through and tell US what
they are endeavoring to do. The
Company. lately has built an addi-
ton to their plant, which adds to
the convenience as we'll as the looks
they have q neat office set apart
from the foundry, and several are
kept busy looking after the orders
coming in from every where for
their products, even from foreign
countries. They have a number of
salesmen on the road, and their
orders amount to thousands of dol
lars every month, The industry is
growing, and will soon be one of
the largest in the South. Their
specially is the McNaughton Crate
Bars, but they handle everything in
their lines making CRATES for large
boilers etc.
They employ quite q force Of
laborers. They also have a complete
machine shop, which does not hand.

THEN own work,
Just drop in some time when you
are over on the east side and you
will be shown every courtesy by the
management. Watch McNaughton's

Aluminium Plant
In Operation

The Aluminium Plant at this place
is now in operation. The current
over the new Transmission line was
turned on last Saturday. and the
great plant started. The plant
must be kept going night and day,
and seven days to the week, so to
operate they must have three shifts
of workmen, so the number to oper-
ate is three times as great as it would
be to run an ordinary manufacture
ing plant. The Company now en-
ploys about $50 men on each shift,
making in all about 450 men A
good many of these men are skilled
labors brought here from their other
plants, but a great many of our
own people have sought and secured
work.
The plant is now run with 25, 900
horse power supplied from the
Tennessee Power Co, at their dam
on the Ocoee River, the Aluminium
Co., has contract with this COM
pany to supply them with power for
number Of years, but will even
tuaIjy furnish their own powew from
their dams which they will construct
on tie Little Tennessee River above
this place 1t win take several years
to erect these dams, as tlev intend
to build three and have not coma
menced work on them yet.
The bouxite used in the manu-
facture of Aluminium here is mined
in Arkansas, and shipped to East
st. Louis, where the company has
a refining plant. It is shipped here
from St. Louis. where it goes
through another refining process,
and made into pig metal then sent
to New KensinytOn, Pa, where the

Colored School Closed

The last month of the coiored
public school was in every way
complete success. The few hints
given the children by the principal
to the entire school on Friday after
noon seemed to credit considerable
interest, aud many of the children
would ask for repetition Of the exer-
cises when the time would not per-
init, The instruction in horticul-
ture was given by the question
method so that the children il the
smallest grades could undersiand.
and they were even allowed 70 ex.

would plepare The ground, and
when and how to plant the most
common garden and field veeeta-
bles.
Many Of the chillren promised to
select small plots of ground and
cultivate something Of really domes-
tic value.
The time is at hand when intel
lectual and manual training must
be mixed; indeed the two are in
separable because a skillful hand is
only manifested by skillful mind,
a well trained soul,
The closing exercises Thursday
and Friday nights were very good,
all things considered, anu Judging
from the crowded house on both
nights and from the many eompli-
ments and general satisfaction among
the patrons, We feel safe in saying
that the exhibitions giyeuo on Thurs
day night by the primary grades
and On Friday night by Jhe adyanc-
ed grades have rare1- haen keel ed
by local talent.
A movement worthy Of note is
that now being made by The best
colored people of the city to SUPPLE
ment The free school by a two
subscription school. The
writer gives lis hearty endorsement
to the movement. We are glad TO
note the entire school board. the
Mayor and most the Aldermen are
in favor of giving a certain per cent
Of the corporation taxes to lengthen
our school term.
The principal of the colored school
suggests a supplementary reading ]
circle conducted on the graded
system to meet Friday afternoon

On Monday night at 10 O'Clock
the coal and wood house of R, Fl.
Hanna in East Maryvflle caught
afre and soon was a mass of Goals
and a heap of ruins. Heroic work
on the part of our citizens, saved
his dwelling and the barn of Mrs.
S. L. George. We understand that
the fire was caused by Mr.. Hanna
paying a visit to the house to get
some coal, lighting a match and
throwing it down, he supposed that
it had gone out. The fire caught
on some material and burst out
about two hours afterward, We
want to issue a warning to. people
to be more careful with matches
