Discussed at Boosters Club
Last Evening and
Steps Taken
TOWARDS A GLOVE FACTORY

The Boosters held live wire
meeting last evening at the City
Hall Quite number were pres
ent and took part IN the discussion.
The most important matter brought
before the Club was the reading Of
a letter from the Work Glove Co.
OF Detroit, Mich, who stated that
they were going to open another
branch factory and asked what the
Boosters Club could offer them.
They further stated that they would
employ from 40 to 70 girls, and that
they were also III communication
with other townR.
This would be q great thing for
our city IL this company can be in
duced to locate here, as they would
give employment to q class of labor
that has no market here unless some
business OF this character should be
established. This would mean many
hundreds Of dollars to be put into
circulation weekly among our busi-
ness men. The Secretary was in-
structed to write them asking what

The question OF the payment Of

many who RaVe their names for

OF dues, or attended the meetings, It
Was decided to call their attention

Of the Bee. Il was further agreed
that all who do not attend or pay by

The question OF cooperation was
thoroughly discussed, with Miller &

that the farmers will bring their

STANDARDIZATION OF
OIL TESTS PROPOSED

Denver, Colo, Dec. 1s.-Among i'm
portant matters to be considered at the
convention OF oil men of the United
States next summer will be the ques-
ton of standardization OF tests for
crude and refined oils OF all kinds,
more particularly, however, gasoline.
benzine. and similar oils. It is point
ed out that such Standardization Is
made necessary because Of the great
confusion that now exists due to the
great variety of methods in use in the
various states.
II is said uniform system has been
advocated by oil men for some time but
that no concerted action has ever been
taken. 1t Is with this in view that the
convention of oil men will be held ac-
cirding to James Duce, Colorado state
oil inspector. Mr.. Duce already has be-
gun making arrangements for the
meetings, which will be attended by ap-
proximately 500 oil men from all parts
of the country.
