Smyrna times., 1962-08-09

Important changes are being
made at Thornley's factory TO
make room for a larger output
of Nainsook underwear for the
Delmarvia Manufacturing Co.
The overall department, which
for years has been conducted
with success by Mr.. Thornley,,
has been moved to Dover and a
special factory installed at that
place for the purpose of manu-
featuring overalls only. This
branch plant will be under the
management of William c. Nc
Dowell, who had charge of the
department in Smyrna. The
building vacated here is being
converted into an underwear
factory which, by other addi-
lions, will become an enlarged
plant of the Delmarvie Manu-
featuring Company, giving more
employment to home labor and
increasing the output of the
plant materially. This worthy
industry, which, is doing somuch
for Smyrna. pays out thousands
of dollars annually to home la
Dor, nearly all which is pres
ent right in Smyrna. Nainsook
underwear manufacturing max
is nice work for the women of
Smyrna and vicinity and with the
additional building room and
machinery, will open a wide
opportunity to all concerned.
MIR. Thornley, is being con-
graduated on his enterprise.
