covered with water, which in turn

cide Against Lititz On
New Factory
Officials of the Vanity Fair Mills,
of Reading, who had considered a site
in Lititz for a branch factory along
with sites in several other toisns, de-cided
last week to build their plant
in New Holland. The decision was
felt keenly here, as it was believed
that Lititz had as many points of
advantage for a hosiery mill as did
aiiy of the other towns under con-sideration.
It is to be regretted that
our town was unable to get the plant,
but the failure was not "due to lack
of enterprise.
The plant will be known as the
Vanity Fair Stocking Company, a
branch of the silk mill under the
same management, located at Read-ing
and will be used entirely for the
manufacture of stockings, a new pro-duct
of the Vanity Fair Company.
According to officials a bond issue
of $40,000 will be floated in the boro
in the near future to finance the pro-ject.
One-tenth of the issue will be
paid off each year with the expecta-tion
of paying the entire amount in
twelve years.
It is planned to erect a one-story,
fire-proof structure, 112 by 105 feet
in dimension, on Brubaker Avenue,
in the west end of the town. The in-tention
is to make this the first unit
of what will eventually be a large
plant.
The decision was announced last
Thursday afternoon and building will
start March 1.
