Bootmakers Strike Heats Up Worcester Industry
Worcester bootmakers return in small numbers as strike tensions ease. Several firms report rising applications and a few new workers, while seven or eight weeks of disruption threaten to close major firms like J. H. G. M. Walker and H. B. Fay & Co. If the deadlock lasts, the shoe trade risks broader impact beyond the boot department. A large meeting yielded little concrete progress.

Norwich and Stonington lines report steadier supply. Dealers foresee limited Boston stocks lasting five to six weeks with prices holding or rising, and rail shipments as a last resort.

Lecture on The History and Growth of Artificial Light
At Sleeper Hall Boston University host Mr. R. J. Monks delivered a graphic lecture tracing the evolution of artificial light from primitive torches to electric illumination. The talk featured a vast display of lighting devices some nearly two thousand years old and included brief talks on electric lighting and gas manufacture.
