Plainville again has the honor of Leing among the honor towns of the state who oversubscribed the Second Fied Cross fund. Up to the present time there has been $6.825 reported. The factories have not made a com- plete report and it is thought that when the report is made Plainville will have reached $7,000. The local schools have done wonderfully well in the drive. Principal O. L. Judd niade a canvass of the various rooms and $103 was reccived. The schools hzve been active in all war funds and were placed on the honor roll of schools who have scored one hun- dred per cent in War Savings Stamps. The following is the list of rooms which have contributed: Grades 7 and 8, $21.75; Grade 7, $9.49; G , $7.12; Grades 3 and Grade 2 A, $8.00; Grade Grade 1 A, $3.61; kindergarden, $2.29 and some of the parents $5.00; Grade 1 B, $2.82; Grade Grade 1 C, $2.59; Grades §4.91; Grade 6, $3.95. The Gir Economic club which is connected with the schools gave a food sale at the schol and $13 was realized. P cipal Judd and his staff contributed money also to the Red Cross. Food Bulletin. A bulletin board for the use the Woman's Food committee has been placed in the local Red Cross rooms. Notices for and by the com- nnttees will be found there. Notices for canning fruit and vegetables will be placed on the bulletin. If any have food for sale or wish to buy such, notices can be placed there. Many Gardens Planted.

At that time, the company employed approximately a dozen men, and oc- cupied a tiny floor space magnani- mously set aside for the building infant by the Hart & Cooley Co. Starting in that modest fashion, Fafnir Bearing Co. has made rapid but consistent progress. For instance, in their new and modern equipped plant, the grinding department alone includes something like ing the services of 200 skilled opera- tors, and occupying a floor space of was incor the vegetables this year. Even the small school children are planting small gardens. It is estimated that there are nearly 1,000 gardens The farmers are very seldom seen around town but people can see them early in the morn- ing planting. In the Mountain View section passersby on the trolleys «<an see nothing except gardens. At the rate which the people are planting it is estimated that there will be nearly 2,000 bushels of potatoes raised of which probably one half will be needed for the town and the rest will go to Uncle Sam. Minor Stops Sunday Work. What seéms to have caused siderable attention is the conve tion which took place between John B. Minor, one of the town’s best known citizens and Benson the owner of a local feed ill. It is said that on last Sunday morning Benson thought it would be a good scheme to unload his grain from the local freight house. Minor heard of the work which was going on and went immediately to the freight house and ordered Benson to stop unloading the grain. The order caused an argument hut in the end Benson stopped unloadifg the glain. Store to.

HONOR ROLL. St. list 20,000 square feet, In another de- partment there are approximately 100 automatic semi-automatic machines, together with an equal number of men. all of which are working to capacity both day and night. In addition to this, the plant includes a large and modern heat treating department, where large quantities of high carbon chrome alloy steel ball bearing rings are scientifically hardened. However, the latest acquisition of the Fafnir Bearing Co. consists in the construc- tion of a large forge plant, designed for, and capable of easily handling the intensive production of forgings. The company is now ‘planning an exten- sive addition to their present plant, and this will be completed during the approaching summer, From a very few thousand the production of high grade bearings has leaped to seven in 1917. This heavy production en- tailed the constant services of 100 ex- pert inspectors.
