NOVELTY WORKS WILL MOVE

Waupaca is to lose its Novelty works, says Mr. Ripley Hudson who has just returned from Green Bay. “We shall move to Green Bay as soon as everything can be arranged. I expect my brother tomorrow to complete the arrangements. We have everything to work with there, a fine plant, machinery, etc. We shall make a line of gasoline engines as well as our regular foot power machinery,” said Mr. Hudson when asked regarding their future plans. It is understood that Geo. Niles will accompany the works to their new location. It is too bad to have this industry, leave us, taking as it does not alone good citizens but a manufacturing enterprise. It is not certain that Mr. E.B. Jeffers will move there, at least not for the present and it is hoped that he will not go at all. Waupaca would greatly miss Mr. and Mrs. E.B. Jeffers.
