The Oak Knitting Mill is packing machinery and shipping it to East Point, beuifeia, which is five miles or. so from Atlanta. Strong competit-\ ion necessitates a move South in or- der to be close to the source of the 1 raw material usecLjn the manufac-| ture of their products. | This move will be a distinct loss to. i Arcade, as about 100 employees,; mostly girls, will be thrown out of j work. It is stated that labor is also rnnsiderably cheaper in the South. C °The Knitting mill has been one of the principal industries of Arcade, \om the early history of the vjllage.

The following Monday he let the contact for the work of building\ and commenced cutting the timber. Since that time trie site has been graded; gravel -drawn, concrete foun dations laid, timbers cut, drawn, saw ed, framed and the frame was raised Monday. The barn is 36x84 feet. Mr. Orville Mitchell and Mr. ,Hoft> man framed the building in record time. Mr. Fuller expects the barn will be completed in two'weeks more.

Edwards at the M. E. church of Arcade. The sudden leaving of Mr. Edwards, an esteemed citizen of Arcade for a long time, made hurried preparation of the people of the Methodist church necessary in order to give him a real farewell. It had not been expected that Mr. Edwards^would leave for Atlanta, Ga., where he goes with the Oak Knitting Mill, moving there from here, until the middle of the month or the first of December, so when it became known on Tuesday afternoon that he would leave on Thursday morning the people of the church hurried about to pay him a farewell.
