Another Big Thing for Edgerton.

At meeting of the officers and d.
rectors of the Chamber of Commerce
last Tuesday evening, it was resolved
to offer MIR. Durant, former head of
General Motors Co., inducements in
land and stock subscriptions to have
him locate his new $50, 900, 900 automo-
bile factory in Edgerton. A telegram
was dispatched to Mr.. Durant during
the evening, making the offer. One
hundred acres land, free gravel, loca-
ton on rail track and handling of a
considerable block of stock in the new
company were suggested in the tele-
gram as Edgerton's bid for the big con-
Germ. GAINESVILLE is also making an eff
fort to induce Mr.. Durant to choose a
site. there. The big financier plans to
build an automobile costing not more
than 81, ZOO. Mr.. w. B. Doty has been
active in lining this matter up, getting
in touch with parties whose word would
have weight with Mr.. Durant in the
selection of home for his proposed
giant industry.

Medical and Dental Clinic.

Papers were signed last Saturday by
which the Drs. Shearer and the dental
firm, Meyers & Southworth, lease from
3. C. Wilson the entire second floor of
the Wilson laboratory building, "a
rooms in all, fronting Fulton and Main
streets. The space rented will be
equipped as modern medical and dem
tai clinic to be occupied jointly by the
firms mentioned. The rooms will be
fitted up to take care of needed offices
of the doctors and dentists, waiting
rooms, X-ray and other laboratories.
This will give Edgerton thoroughly
modern medical and dental clinic.
While the rooms formerly occupied by
these firms were most pleasant and
convenient, they did not afford enough
space to take care of increasing BUSH
ness.
