Wessel was elected president and treasurer and Frank J. Morgan was elected secretary and assistant treas- urer. Both of these men were with the Stanley Works of New Britain for many years. They are both ex- perts in their lines, Mr. Wessel in office management and Mr. Moran in production. The building which the Mosel Man- ufacturing company new occupies is the old Wheel shop on Farmington road. It was formerly occupied by the Monarch Stitched Tire company and the Hartford Durial Case com- pany. The production of the new concern is Increasing each month. Steel specialties are being shipped to vari- ous parts of the country. The orig- inal produet of the company was a steel bit brass chuck which is made of wrought steel which had hitherto been made out of malleable iron. For this product alone large orders are being received from the biggest manutfacturers of bit braces in the The Mosel company does not depend, however, on this com- modity alone but it is branching out into other lines of steel manufacture. Tool makers are being taken on and they are now busy on the tools to be used in the products to be turned out. At the present time there are about 20 men on the payroll, many of whom live in Kensington. The growth in production has been due largely to the inventive genius of Frank J. Mo- ran who has charge of production. He has had wide experience and has patented many successful hardware articles. The most promising feature of the concern is the possibility for future expansion. The location on Farming- ton road is central and convenient. The building is large and not yet en- tirely occupied and is directly eon- nected with the main line by a spur track. The volume of business tran- sacted is steadily growing and the prospects for the future are bright both for the concern itself and for the prosperity of Kensington.

William { left on CHARTER OAY MEET Shows “Big Fellers” What His “Flivver” Can Do. PORTABLE SCHOOL ARRIVES New Structure Will Accommodate Abont 60 Children—Two Session Plan May Be Nccessary—Ncw Store to Open—John Diters Given Party. lLeaving his new aviation field on Woodford's avenue, at about 6 o'clock last evening, Hugh Rockwell soared to the clouds in his “Flying Flivver” and after a short flight over the town, headed for Hartford to take part in the aviation meet where several avia- tors were scheduled to give the Hart- ford residents a few thrills. The meet was held in Charter Oak park. Rock- well flew down amongst the larger fiving machines and appeared like a sample compared to the others. Nevertheless, Rockwell made a good showing with his plane and with the cheering of the thousands that were present, rose to a height of 500 feet or more but was forced to come down as one of the cvlinders on his motor cracked. His “Flivver” was a cause of considerably interest and comment by the peopie and attracted a great deal of-attention. A new motor has been installed and has proved suc- cessful so far. It cons'mes less gas- oline than the former engine and develops more horsepower. Several of the aviators that flew in Hartford paid a visit to Plainville yvesterday and landed on Rockwell’s field. They said the field was an jdeal landing and starting place and a better location could not be found. A number of local people went fo Hartford and witnessed the stunts of the aviators and were somewhat dis- appointed in the accident to the lo- cal aviator’s machine. Portable School Arrives. The new portable school building that the town has purchased has ar- rived and workmen are erecting the structure. It will be made into two rooms and will have a capacity of about €0 children. In view of the fact that the school will be over- crowded with the opening of the school season, the new addition will assist considerable in accommodating Two new teach- ers have been assigned to the build- ing and the entire force of teaching is complete. There will be no vacan- cies on the opening date and teachers’ salaries have also been settled. The town has been fortunate in settling matters pertaining to the school sit- uation. However, it may be neces- sary to have some: of the rooms on a two-session a day schedule to care for the children properly. New Store in Plainville. With the several new stores that are appearing in Central Square, variety seems to be the main object. A piano and talking machine store will occupy the old location of the Plainville Engineering and Supply company on Whiting strect in the Aldrich building across from the post office. Kelly and Cowles of Hartford are the new owners and E. T. Spencer has been appointed manager of the place. A formal opening will be held tomorrow when a special engagement of the Costello-Melods boys of Hart- ford will be present and render sev- eral selections. They will be at the store from 7:30 until 0 o'clock in the evening. This makes a total of about six new stores in the center of the town within the past month. Tendered Party.
