WEAVER STRIKE is ENDED
GIRLS RETURN TO WORK

The strike originating among the
girls operating in the weaving room
of the silk mill last week has come
to an end and those who did not
leave the city after receiving their
pay are all back to their looms.
On the arrivel home of Mr.. f. w.
Howard, from his trip east, a com
mittee Of four met him and Mr.. Mar
ion Case and laid their grievance be-
fore them the conference ended by
Mr.. Howard stating that their pay
checks would be distributed on time
and if any Of the operatives desired
to go back to work they were at
perfect liberty and welcome to do so,
on the present wage rate basis, that
if there was to be any advance or
griviences the matter would be
taken up by the company and
considered later. There was un-
doubtedly a misunderstanding on the
part of the operatives among them
selves. in regard to new method of
measuring the cloth which might
have been ironed out with the
exercise Of ! title judicious
and proper advice both to the
advantage Of themselves and also the
company. Business at the mill is
running briskly, has been and will be
for a long time to come and every.
body now seems to be optimistic in
stead of pessimistic.

The Crop Improvement Associa-

Installing Visible Gasmeter

Fred Thompson, local distributor
of the Buick and Chevrolet cars, is
this week installing a fine visible
gasmeter Of the latest improved type
The meter is composed of pump and
two five gallon tanks, each being
plainly marked for from one to five
gallons as the customer may desire
so than anyone can readily see that
he is positively getting his full meas
ure of gas.
While these meters have been pop
ular in the larger cities for some
time this is the first one of its kind
here and Mr.. Thompson should be
complimented for keeping his service
always up to date for his customers.
Mr.. Thompson says that the gas
shortage has ceased to exist and that
there is now plenty of gas on hand
for all.
