The ambulanoce’ was traveling west on Valley street and!| ran into-the Tight rear wheel of the Her- car, which had nearly crossed Val- ley street, breaking several spokes in the wheel and pushing the Herrick car half way round. The ambilance escaped with a few siight scratches. The matter was reported to the chief of police immediate- ly by the driver of the ambulance, Frank Guancione, of Temple street, who said he applied his brakes af scon as he s other car but could not stop in time to prevent an aceident. Mansfield Is to loso its chief industry within a ehort time, as the new plant of the Max Poliack company at Poquonnoc nearing completion and as soon as the dyeing quarters are finished the thread business -will move to Groton. The loss of the plant to Mansfield and thig city will be felt by many, as the plant during normai times employed nearly 100 opera- tives and the payroil yearly amounted to over $100,000, a great part of which was spent in Mansfield or in Willimantic. The Max Pollack company began busi- ness I this city about 1900, locating on the top floor of the old wing of the ‘Windbam Silk company. Some time later the company purchased the Conantville mill from the late Michael A. Sullivan of Willimantic and moyed their plant there, gradually increasing their business until about 100 hands were employed.

THAT OUTLIVES A LIFETIME e ltisn’t necgsary to think of a gift as something for - only one day of the year. The sentiment can be there in full measure and perhaps to a greater degree by far—if the gift—will endure, if ‘tinues for months and years to convey the original sentiment and happi- ness. Such a gift is THE NEW EDISON — the world’s most marvelous musical instrument. Thrifty People Spend Money Wisely It isn’t so much what you spend as what you get in return for your invesiment. Some people—we fear—rush off to buy Phonographs without takmg the preoa.uhon to KNOW whether their invesiment is the wisest one they might make. All'we suggest is—Hear the New Edison along with all the others. Isn’t that reasonable advice ? Wonderful Music For Christmas Day A fitting time to install this master musical instrument in your home, is now—in time for Christmas. Music helps tox:mytmtthespmtoftheday. It is a part of Christmas and your joy on-that occasion will be enhanced—with The NEW EDISON. Don’t Wofry About The Terms—Come There is still time to deliver an Edi- son for Xmas, We have all models and ali prees. We will do our part.
