Even many of the natives were surprised to learn that so many Im- portant articles are manufactured in the shadow of Walnut Hill and taken all in all the week and the exhibi- tions have been a big success. Thousands of articles made in New Britain have been on display and many thousands of visitors and local residents have eyed them with won- dér. The week has shown up the city in its real light and 'has demon- strated that ‘“Made in New Britain” is not an empty phrase. Hundreds have visited the head- quarters of the United Electric Light and Water company, where they were entertained by the exhibition of work done in the public schools. This shows that New Britain is up-to-date in regard to its educational system as well as a shining beacon in the manu- facturing world. Fafnir Bearing Company. Visitors to the electric light office were enabled to step in a moment from the land of school days to the land of manufacturing through the exhibit of the Fafnir Bearing com- pany, which is fast taking its proper place at the head of the procession in which ball bearing manufacturers can be found., The demonstration shows what an easy running, true and in- dustrious little article the product of the Fafnir company is. It smooths the path ahead and permits those who uge these ball bearings to drift along life’'s road in joy and comfort. This exhibit has been shown in many auto- mobile and railroad conventions and is one of the best advertisements the | company could have as it is a prac- tical demonstration of the perfection “made in New Britain.” Abbe Hardware Company. Where there is a building to be built, there is found products of the Corbin plants in New Britain, An excellent idea of what is manufac- tured at the Corbin Screw corporation and P. & F. Corbin's can be gained by a glance in the windows of the Abbe Hardware company. Here is a wonderful assortment of Corbin door checks, fancy doorplates, knockers, escutcheons, - ete. The different fins ishes are shown and the workman- ship and general appearance of the product tell why Corbin prodicts are found in all well-constructed build- ings. George L. Damon. Few pegple with the exception of maghinists appreclate what a big trade New Britain has in ‘the sale of chucks, planers, etc. The exhibit in the window of George L. Damon’s shoe store is provided by the Union Manufacturing company, announces that this concern is the “manufacturers of the largest line of chucks sold wherever machine tools are used.” Clark & Brainerd. An exhibit which, to the lay mind, is greatly similar to that of the Union Manufacturing company, is found in the window of Clark & Brainerd, druggists. This is a display by the Skinner Chuck company and consists of lathes, drills planes, milling ma- chines, grinders, etc. Perfect work- manship, flawless goods—that sums it up in four words. The McMillan Company. The Stanley Works—that is a phrase to conjure with. The exhibit in the window of the McMillan com- pany tells why. There are found the last word in hinges, springs, draw- pulls, etc., which form the principal output of one of New Britain's fast- est growing and best managed con- cerns. Presiding over the display is “Miss Columbia’” in her robe of red, white and blue. Joseph M, Halloran, Inc. Probably no manufacturng concern in the city produces such t variety of articles as Traut & Hine and many of these are shown in the windows of Joseph M.

This exhibit is a rev- clation to the average person who is satisfied to dawdle through life with- out seeing farther than the tip of his nose. It shows what a variety of small but important articles is made by Traut & Hine and is one of the answers to the question one hears when away from home: “Why is New Britain called the ‘Hardware City'?” B Peter Crona. . Articles manufactured by Beaten & Cadwell are shown in a neat dis- play in the window of Peter Crona's tonsorial establishment. These range from floor and celling plates to radia- tors and many different steam and boiler supplies are on exhibition. ‘William H, Crowell. Products of the Corbin Cabinet Lock company in all their great var- fety are on display at Willlam H. Crowell’s drugstore. Articles made by this concern have probably helped as much as any to put New Britain “on the map.” They can’t be beat for ef- ficlency and as for being up to date in perfection, they are labeled April 17, 1916. C. Porter Sons, After a man has worked hard in the shops all day helping to make things that are ““Made in New Britain"” there is nothing more restful than an hour’s recline on a couch or bed made by the National Spring Bed company. If you don’t believe that see the ex- hibit at B. C. Porter Sons house fur- nishers. It is an inviting display that actually makes one stretch and yawn and wish he could be a second “Rip Van Winkle.” John A. Andrews & Co. National Spring Bed company prod- vets may be seen also at the houss | furnishing store of John A. Andrews & Company. Downy pillows and mat- tresses that are guaranteed to drive away insomnia and springy springs that make the sleeper imagine he isin repose on a cloud are shown here. Pleasant dreams arc guaranteed by the National company whose sprivg beds and mattresses are the worst en- emy of the alarm clock. The Besse-Leland Company. Parker shirts and American Hosiery company underwear and stockings are a combination on display at the Besse-Leland gentlemen's furnishing store. - These lines prove that New Britain manufacturers have not put all their eggs in one basket. It is a far cry from hardware to shirts and | demon- | underwear but this merely strates the wide field covered by in- vestors in this community, - The Bes- se-Leland display is particularly at- tractive because of its neat amange- ment and because all the goods shown are good goods. In other words they are ‘“Made in New Britain” goods, which is synonymous with the best there {s. The Curran Company.

These are the handiwork Mr. Curran is proud of the exhibition | and well be might be as it is one of the tastiest seen anywhere, Rackliffe Bros, Co., Inc. The world famous output of the Stanley Rule and Level company is on exhibition in the window of the Rackliffe Bros. Co., Inc., on Park street, Probably no New Britain made articles have helped more to establish the name of New Britain than the ru!m';\ntl levels made by this concern, one of the wealthiest in the city. The trade mark of the concern can be found on rules and levels used in Alaska and in India, and, in fact, in all quarters of the globe. They are made of selected stock by skilled, well paid workmen and cannot be ex- celled by any concern outside of New Britain, NEW T EPHONE SERVIC No Wait Hereafter For Calls Be- tween Hartford and New Britiin, Exchange Manager W. A. Sempic, Jr., of the Southern New FEngland Telephone company announced today that on and after April 18th, toll line calls between New Britain and Hart- ford evchanges, where a number cail is desired, will be completed without requiring the subscriber to ask for toll line or to hang up his telephone and wait for the return call. As far as the subscriber is con- cerned, the procedure will be exactly the same as on a local call, except that it will be necessary to prefix the de- sired number with the name of the exchange in which the called tele- phone is located and to give the num- ber of the telephone from which the call is being made. For {llustration, if a subscriber in the New Britain exchange wishes to call number 124 in Hartford, he will say to the New Britain local operator number, until the telephone in the exchange has been answered or report has been given that they do not answer at the desired telephone.
