^ The Hun^ Eqtuilioa<br />

Until «:30 o'clock Sunday morning<br />

Ch«rlet J. fttterson of Cleveland,<br />

«n|^neCr In charge of a section of <strong>the</strong><br />

Twentieth Cientury Limited, had no<br />

VrioQt blimlsh npon hly twenty*slx<br />

years record in <strong>the</strong> railway service.<br />

He had worked his way to a responsible<br />

and honored position by proving<br />

himself, as far as could be determined,<br />

absolutely trustworthy. But<br />

mt one mintite after l:30 <strong>the</strong> fate which<br />

Is <strong>the</strong> nightmare of every passenger<br />

engineer had overtaken him. He had<br />

run past his signals and in an Instant<br />

wine ntes -were wiped out.<br />

The • lnre*tigttIon will show what<br />

VtenuatIon.«'48 were divided equally between<br />

<strong>the</strong> Holmes and Patterson Granges.<br />

There was a large attendance at <strong>the</strong><br />

annual fair and supper of <strong>the</strong> Baptist<br />

Ladles* Aid Society Saturday evening<br />

at Grange Halt. About 180 was taken in<br />

at <strong>the</strong> supper tables. A fine program<br />

bf readings and music was a pleasing<br />

close to <strong>the</strong> evening affair and It Is expected<br />

quite a lar^e amount was cleared<br />

for <strong>the</strong> society.<br />

The factory employment reports for<br />

November are not encouraging. Employment<br />

went down almost 2 per cent.<br />

although November Is usually <strong>the</strong> busiest<br />

month of pre-Chrlstmas activity.<br />

This statement was Issued by Industrial<br />

Commissioner Bernard L. Shlentag of<br />

<strong>the</strong> State Department of Labor.<br />

It should be noted, however, that<br />

employment in <strong>the</strong> manufacturing Industries<br />

Is still at a high level. It Is<br />

still as high as it, was a year ago and<br />

it Is very much higher than In November<br />

of 1921. 'Payrolls have risen<br />

steadily and show a substantial Increase<br />

over those of last year. The<br />

decrease In employment In November<br />

for this year may, <strong>the</strong>refore, only be<br />

temporary In character.<br />

There does not appear to be any<br />

simple reason for <strong>the</strong> apparent<br />

slackening. The purchasing power of<br />

factory employees Is high and that of<br />

farmers has recently Improved. One<br />

difficulty Is psychological—lack of<br />

confidence and <strong>the</strong>refore, of forward<br />

buying. On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand, if fear of<br />

overproduction or of bad times lead<br />

to unemployment, that In itself will<br />

seriously reduce factory payrolls and<br />

help still fur<strong>the</strong>r to restrict business.<br />

The management of <strong>the</strong> Strand Theatre<br />

has spared no expense In obtaining<br />

<strong>the</strong> best vaudeville and feature photoplays<br />

of merit. Six hi^h class vaudeville<br />

acts In conjunctio/i with <strong>the</strong> s&perproductlon<br />

"The Marriage Maker,'' featuring<br />

Jack Holt and Agnes Ayres will<br />

be shown Saturday. A real surprise.<br />
