CLOTHING MANUFACTURE.

Who Can Make Garments Firm
Wishes to Know. Labor Condi-
tiOns Suggest Business Changes

There is a decided tendency at the
present time for clothing manufac-
tureres TO move from large centers to
smaller communities especially where
reliable power is available. This is
due To many causes. chiefly perhaps to
labor conditions. While names and
further particulars must be withheld
for the time being. there is a possib-
ility that a clothing manufacturer Of
considerable importance may locate in
SkoWhegan. One OF the things which
he wishes to know is how much labor
conversant with he business is avail
able here Skowhegan used TO have a
coat shop so did NorridgeWock Mer-
Ger and New Sharon. There must
be many people who understood this
work still living in these communities.
We want To hear from them. Please
don't neglect this. Every name sent
will have an important bearing on the
matter. If you ever worked on gar
ments. let us hear from YOU, and let
us have the name and address of any
one else whom YOU may known TO be-
skilled in that trade.

FOUR BEARS, TROPHIES
OF HUNTERS SKILL
Lewis Robinson of NOrridgew0ck Wins
Laurels In Capture of Game

Norridgewock, Dec. 14-Lewis Ro-
binson of Norridgewock certainly has
won the laurels among the hunters
of this section of the State at least
by shooting four good sized bears on
one hunting trip. If there is bet
ter record we have not heard of 1t.
Mr.. Robinson has previously won fame
as a hunter by his successful trips in
the up river sections each season
having always returned home with
deer and other game. MIR. Robin
son was hunting alone at Somerset
Junction when he came across the
bears and after shooting them had a
hard time in getting them out of the
woods and to the railroad station.
When he arrived home he and his
prizes were the center Of attraction
for some time and number OF kodaks
were in evidence which doubtless will
prove our story.

The community was saddened Satur-
day morning to learn OF the death of
Mrs. l.. C. Williams which occurred
at about 2 o'clock. BY her going we
have sustained great loss. An
earnest worker in the life of the
church and every other good work,
has gone from our midst. Funeral
services were held at the home Mon
day D. M. and largely attended by the
relatives and friends. Rev. l.. G..
March, former pastor conducted the
services. In the hush of the quiet
hour. His voice in the hymn Safe in
the Arms of Jesus" made them more
impressive. Beautiful floral offerings
the casket and many others
strewn around it, spoke silently OF the
love and esteem for the one who has
gone from among us. The sympathy
of the whole community is felt for
the bereaved husband and daughter.
