Successful Entertainment, The children of the Kensington Grammar school all wore happy ex- pressions on their faces this morning and the reason for said expressions Was they are proud of the entertain- ment which was given by them in St. Payl's Parish hall last night. The hall was crowded to the doors with parents and friends of the pupils and the cousensus of opinion of the members in the audience is: “They are some children.” The program s was carried out in excellent style from ; beginning to end. Every jetter perfect and it would possible to pick out a former on the list. The teachers of the school . alsn. came in for much commendation for the clever manner in which_-they trained the children for the entertain- ment. Of course, no school entertain- ment would be complete unless the teachers appeared on the program, #nd in her rendition of the Taran- tella, Miss Agnes Carlson ddnC?d her Way into the hearts of the audience. Miss Dorothy Horsfall acted as, ae- Companist. 3 | The Improvement league, under whose auspices the entertailnment was given wishes to express its thanks to Rgv. J. C.

The Ca- g hill company s a large wholesale gro- | very and meat firm and it is the in- | tention to establish headquarters for | this locality in Plainville. | The company at present has a large { trade in this section but has no ; tributing station nearer than Me | den.

The latter was in the foundry business for a number of vears and had a factory on the prop- erty. The building has since been uned by Nils Nystrom of Bristol, the latter engaging in the manufacture of paper lunch boxes. He 'will be noti- fled to vacate in the near future as it | 1s the intentfon of the Cahill company to tear down the building soon. Plans for the new storchouse are now being drawn and it is expected | that work on the building will be | started without unnecessary delay. | The company’s decision to have its storehouse here will he received with pleasure by the townspeople as it | mea a substantial addition to the { town’s business places. The property which it has acquired Wholesale Grocery Firm Buys | and | has been sought by others, whose names and plans have not been given out by the former owner Other places in the immediate locality hav- ing a railroad frontage have also been looked over and prices sought. IL is believed that some manufactaring concern is desirous of locating in this section and the owners appear dealing cautiously, anticipating a good | offer for their place In selling to io be eriden concern Mr. Carter showed public spirit as ual and rather than see the town lose the business he made the cale |a low figure, making little, if | profit on the deal Employes Get Back Pay.

The petition presented by the men was not in the nature of an ultima tum and the company’s that owing to unsettled conditions would be advi any change was accepted withont | complaint. The men now have canse o feel satisfied that their judgment in not forcing the issue at the time i was sound as they secured substan- tial advances in pay without enge + dering any bittern losing money because of strikes. President Trumbull told them that as soon as the better-wage agitation, Dr ind it which at the time was felt through- | developed to an ex- out the country, tent that wonld give the local conc , some idea to what other manu | turers, their competitors particu would do, they would change schedule and would make it effective from October 1st, the date named for an answer to the petition The big boost in the payroll on Sat- urday proved that the heads of the concern were sincere in their prom- ises. ~ While the factory is to be operated on a ten-hour schedule 2s in the past the increase in pay is said to be entirely satisfactory to the men. The action of the directors serv to bring closer together than they are at present, the employers and em- ployes and there is probably no fac- tory in the state where the relations between the manufacturers and the help are so pleasant.
