Name for New Mill.
Wante6-a name for the new mil
lion dollar spinning mill to be erected
by stockholders of the Hawthorn
Spinning Mill of Glover. A pretty
| name beginning with an II" and sug-
gestive OF some flower or shrub is pre-
ferred; but no matter what the name
of tine new mill is, it must begin with
H" Thomas Mcconnell of Northamp-
ton, Mass president Of the Hawthorn
Mill here and one Of the moving
spirits in the newest mill project for
| Clover, discussed the name for the
new mill when in Glover last week
Mr.. Mcconnell was quoted as saying
that he did not care what the name
was much so long as it commenced
with an III" since he considers III
his lucky letter.
Means Increased Population.
l. When the spindles In the new cot
ton mill here begin humming some
months hence, Clover's population
will be well over the 1000 mark. The
census of 1920 gave Glover n popula-
ton of 1,6OS and it is a practical GER
tainty that the building of the new
mill village which will house the en-
| 2lOyees of the newest manufactory will
mean at least 500 more people for
Glover and very probably more In
| formation is that since announcement
in The Yorkvillc Enquirer of the
by the Hawthorn interests real estate
values here have gone up consider
ably. 1t is quite probable also that
several new building firms will be
looking toward Clovc.' for location
Sewerage Agitation Revived
Agitation of the question of an
election on the proposition Of building
a sewerage system for the town of Clo-
yer has been revived recently. There
was some discussion of this matter
about year ago and in fact, it pro-
,cccded so far as the drawing up of Il
petition of frecholdcrs asking for ar
election on the question of voting
town bonds for the work; but the
mattcrNdied temporarily when num-
ber of leading citizens decided that il
was not the proper time for such 4
project. But now ii is bObbing NJ
again and it would not be surprising
if it be put mp to the freeholders and
citizens within the next four months
Most Progressive Town
That Glover has made more build
ing progress than any other town in
York county since the World war is
the claim of Glover people who cite
building accomplishments here ant
the entry of new business enterprises
into the Glover field since that time
In addition to a large number uf resi-
dcnccs the town has seen the opening
Of its second bank, the building Of {
cotton warehouse, the building of Z
new Presbyterian church, Il mOderr
