WILL SHARE PROFITS.
Union Mfg. Co. Employees to Enjoy
 Proportion of Earnings.

Proportion of Earnings
 Adopting a policy which has been followed with much success by firms in other places, the Union Mfg. Co. has decided to share the years earn concern. Just what proportion the employees will receive will not be known until the books have been closed and the profits can be accur- ately estimated. Notices of'the conn pany's plan have been posted in the factory and the news was naturally received with broad smiles. For a number of months the firm has been warking overtime and is rated as being one of the most prosperous in the city.
 The Union Mfg. Co.,, has had a new lease of life under it's present manage ment and for a number of years has forged ahead. When the late George w. Corbin and his brother, A. F. Cor lin, now president of the concern took hold of the management nearly ten years ago. the factory was re- garded as a joke. It hadn't paid dividends for years and was deeply ir debt How it ever kept going was a marvel to many of the city's captains of industry but this has all changed and instead of debts, the company possesses a reserve and is doing 8 splendid business, which is constantly on the increase, All the old buildings have been torn down and fine brick concrete and steel structure is nearly ready for occupancy.
