OLD PLANT IR NASHUALH, EXPANDING TS FAGILITEES Factory of Wilkam Highton & Sons Co., Established Since 1889, Becomes Prop- erty of New Britain Marufacturers. Two of Country’s Largest Makers of Grills and Ventilating ~ Registers Now Under Single Head Deal Causes Great Sur- prise. (Speciat to the Herald) Nashua, N. H., Jan. 9—The merging of the Willlam Highton & Sons Co., of this city with the Hart & Cooley Mfg. Co, of New Britaln, Conn., was made known today through the newly appointed gen- eral manager of the combi.ied firm, James H. Shenton, former treasurcr of the Nashua company. The Nashua branch will be known as the Highton Division of Hart & Cooley Co., and will retain all of its present equipment with the possibility of several additions be- cause of the expansion resulting from the merger. The Connecticut company does a national business in the manufac- ture of grills and ventilating regis- ters and the merger was completed with the purpose in mind of con- solidating the two largest concerns connected with the business in the country, Highton & BSons began business In Boston, but moved to| Nashua in 1889. News of the merger causes con- siderable surprise and at the same time gratification. Negotiations had been carried on with more or less secrecy and no inkling of the mer- ger was had by even the local Chamber of Commerce. The expan- sion of the local plant means von- sid~rable to the city according to statements made at the local Cham- ber of Commerce, calling for addi- tional employment and an increased | payroll. Director of the Hart & Hutchin- son Co. recently voted an increase in the company’s capital from $250,- 000 to $1,000,000, and it was exy plained that certain manufacturing assets of the Hart & Cooley Co. were to be taken over and the $750,- 000 Jncrease in stock turned back in payment. 4 The lines taken by the Hart & Hutchinson Co. will hereafter be manufactured by that concern. They are closely allled with the products of the purchaser.

Rev. Benjamin Brew- |ster, bishop of the Episcopal d'o- cese of Maine, declared today. ‘The bishop expressed his views in endorsing, in an interview with the Portland Evening News, the recom- mendations regarding sex education made in Boston Sunday by Bishop William Lawrence of the Methodist, Episcopal church. The latter urged that sex educatiop be extended even to children three to nine years old. “When questions are asked by children, they ought not to be put off with lies,” Bishop Brewster said, He asserted that in the past, “false modesty has undoubtedly pro- moted & prurlent habit of mind, stimulated unwholesomeness, with frequent fatal results in moral lapses and physical deterioration.” Even with children three to nine years old, he continued, the attitude of a parent “ought not to be that of one half-ashamed when facing facts belonging to this phase of life.” “I believe modern pedagogy opens up ways in which little children can be led naturally to associate such imatters as the conception and birth of babies with other parallel facts in nature—polien, the expanding bud. and the like." “There Is nothing unclean,” he said, “in the frank treatment of all the functions of the body, sex in- cluded, by competent teachers, pre- ferably before small groups, as Bishop Lawrence suggests. “But the principle of reverence (s0 neglected in many quarters) is an essential element in such teach- ing. ‘The sex principle, like all i created things, is in its essence good. ® God created it, Only in its abusc it evil. “Let the scientific teaching of these matters be guided by rever- ence for the spiritual, creative ener- gles which are bound up with the normal physical instinct of sex, and of which it is a sign and symbol, and in that sense sacramental. St. Paul says, your body is a temple of the Holy Bpirit. “And while it is - right that the physical consequences of impurity and unchastity should be pilainly |brought home by competent teach- ers (fulfilling the Scripture warning that ‘He that soweth to the flesh shall to the fiesh reap corruption’) bonds for his appearance in police court tomorrow.

This discontinuance of the morning bulletins was regarded as in itselt a favorable sign even though recent statements: by the doctos have fndicated no, change in the king’s condition. This stationary period was pointed to as emphasizing the warning that the king's progress in regaining’ strength after his long and exhaust- ing illness must necessarily be slow. “Havana Air Limited” Off With Miss Earhart Miami, Fls., Jan. 9 M—The “Ha. vana Air Limited” bearing 15 sacks of mafl and four passengers took off at the Pan-American Airways field at $:07 a. m., today, marking the first of four departures which wili for- mally inaugurate air and passenger service to Havana, Porto Rico afid Nassau.
