been,' preserving strict secrecy about
the subject, declining to make public
recent figures to show how fast the

Eflrds Mill Starting Up Nlglit
Aiueinarie isews-Heraid.
If we are to judge business condi
tions from the stftus of ' the ' jfiflrd
Manufacturing Company, of this place,
we have already "turned the corner"
long ago. For some time now all the
local cotton mills and 'hosiery fac
tories here have been running on full
time. The Eflrd Manufacturing Co.,
not able to turn out the -wdrk de
mandee'd by running during the day,
has started up mill No.; 1-at night.
It is said tills will, give employment
to about one hundred additional
hnnjds. The Ejfird pompany s not
only starting up because of increased
demand fur Its products but this en
terprising company always has in view
the welfare of its help, therefore this
night work is being commenced also
with the idea in view of taking care of
any of the Eflrd help that cannot get
employment on the regular day run;
