mére. Savings accounts in local ‘banks have ‘increased over $2,000,000 since 1914, and “other: savings . include upwards ‘of another $1.000,000" wortih. of ~ Liberty bonds owned in this immediate vicinity, There afe a ‘few facts - Lo ponder. To the ‘calamity howler they ‘may ' meéan something or nothing at all. To the sin- cere person who is really striving -for some hopeful sign' of the times they shouldl be Very eagouraging. One cantot get away from the fact, however; that approximately a ‘million doflars a year over and above what the mill workers ever received -in"a like pe- riod before 1914, is.now being paid out. There is nothing -in that situation to cause apprehension. Prices aré very ma- terially lower than they were in almost every line. As to earning a.living .in this territory, higher prices, rénts and other things given due consideration, the situation is in the light of facts from every. viewpoint, materially better than prior to 1914, The moral of al this is to buck up with the coming of spring and reap with the optimists the harvest of good things that come to those who smile, letting the pessimists grope about in the gloom cre- ated by their own blinders. -Business need - not be .stagnant in this territory through lack of money ta make its wheels turn. The money is being earned in suf- ficient amounts to make trade brisk and the buyers happy. Such figures as were obtained for use in this article came from absolutely authoritative sources and can be verled by anyone sufficiertly interested to check them up. No _attempt is intended ‘ere fo com- pare’ earnings of today with the hectic war period when an errand boy earned a dollar.an hour—but merely to establish the fact that Killingly's workers are earning a $1.000,000 a year more than they ever earned prior to 1914. Boy Scouts joined Wednesday in- the search_for Roland Roj, 19, who mysteri- ously ‘disappeared after leaving his hom¢ on Dyer street, Monday afternoon, and has not been seen by anyone who knows him since carly evening of that day. All effopts to_ locate Rol having failed during Tuesday, Chief John MacFar- land on Wednesday enlisted the aid of the Boy Scouts. Some of them took up | the search durinz the morning e while the mafority of them went at the task uring the afternoon and spent hours investigating thoroughly all of the territory to the north of the borough. Chief MacFarland said Wednesday that the last authentic report he has recelved of anyone seeing Roi placed the young man on Mechanic street, near Westfield avenue,.at about 6.45 p. m.
