About 20 men work during the night. taking care of the unfinished products of the day workers
 
 ! time ago with force of about 20 men, and has grown with surprising speed It was but short time after the factory was up that skilled mer had to be hired from Torrington and the factory officials had to provide l for their transportation here and ther find accommodation for living in the town permanently. The owners o1 the plant are from that town and were acquainted with the workers who were suited to their particular needs.
 The only thing the plant need: now is proper road leading from the factory. A movement was started some time ago by the Town Plar l Commission to lay new road to tho shop from Broad street. but this Worl | is tied up in the superior court await 1 ing the hearing to be given the prop 1 erty owners affected by the road cut | ting through their land.
 ! Entrance to Broad street is nov gained by a pass-way from the fac tory leading through Bank streeet It is not as bad at present, the spring weather has helped dry the street. but during the winter season it was almost i'm passable.
