There 15 & constant call in towns i | tena | | You're atives, of which there seems t0 be a scarcity this spring. Several mills are known to have looms idle because no help can be had to operate them, this being true in the small mill villages. The most troubliiig feature of the sit- uation is that with the coming of the warm weather other operatives who work in the mills in winter will leave to work out of doors during the sum- mer and fall month: Putnam Will Keep the Trade. A Webster business men's associa- tion at a recent gathering talked of attracting the trade of Woodstock, Thompson, including the Grosvenor- dales, to that place, because they re- ard Webster as the natural trading enter for the people of the place ‘mentioned. That may sound good in Webster and also may be a laudable indication of an ambition to have the- trade of the Connecticut towns mentioned, but as a matter of fact, Putnam is, h: been and probably will be for many years the natural and selected trading center for the majority of buyers from the towns of Waodstock and Thomy son. Some of the people from (i towns mentioned occasibnally go to Webster, but the bulk of their trad- ing Is done in Putnam, this statement excepting some of the mill operatives in the Grosvenordales, who divide their patronage between Putnam and Web- ster.
