The Woolen com- pany buys a group of seven houses on Spring Garden avenue, four on one side of the street amd three on the other, all of the convenient two-family type that ing Co. constructed during the wa the damand for more resi- dences here to accommodate employes of the expanding industries. Seven of the apartments In the hous- es bought by the Woolen Co. are already occupied by employes of the company. The deeds were passed Friday by Shep- ard B. Palmer, secretary and_treasurer of the Housing Co., snd C. B. Church and J. R. Bailey, Jr., from the real es- tate department of the American Woolen Co., in Boston. The two Boston men ad looked over the Thamesville hous- es and had been extremely well pleased h {heir arrangements and convenienc- es. Secretary Palmer represented the Housing Co. directly in the .megotia- tions for the sale. The investment by the American Wool- en Co. in Norwich real estate will be taken as an encouraging sign of their in- tion of maintaining their mills per- nently in Norvich and assuring this com: of the continuance here of h mportant industry wth its an ge wage distribution in the town, | = ses. | sum- | camp- ed the Mrs, Bak- about up decided | yrations.

Such an experience will be very gratl- fying to the stockholders, many of whom put their money into the pian at the start out of a semse of civic loyalty to meet an existing need for more houses and possibly considered their response more of a contribution than an invest- ment from which tkey could expect re- turns. That/ such a satisfactory result has been obtained for the Norwlch stock- holders in the Housing Co. has come directly througfh the majority control that was taken last July by C. D. Noyes, W. H. Oat and Shepard B. Palmer, who took over the stock in the company held by the Marlin-Rockwell Co. Mr. Noyes was elected president, Mr. Oat vice pres- ident and Mr. Palmer secretary and treasurer. With John McWilliame and Walter F. Lester they constituted the board “of directors and liquidation of the company was proceeded with by sales of real estate. Land enough for 15 hous- es was sold and 14 of the 21 houses own- ed were sold to individual owners, many of the to those Who were tenants in them. Al the real estate held by the Hous. ing Co. has now been .disposed of, but the company still s several mort- gages on property which has been sold.

While they receive the envious glances of other children. who were vaccinated and are attending school the position of their fathers is somewhat uncomfortable.
