Local Buggy Factory Enjoying Rapid Growth The John Flanagan Buggy Company Passing Its 48th Successful Year HE PAST AND IKE Every Veer They Large In crease in Business and are Made to Meet Demands for their Products. When the late Mr. John Flanagan moved to Greenville years and established a buggy factory and re pair shop here, wise and good man that was he perhaps never dreamed that he was laying the foundation for the Immense plant that today bears his honored name and keeps his j my fresh with those who knew him. He began business in B Sinai way in small frame building, he put the stamp honesty on every piece of work he turned out and thus paved the way to a prosperous business ca He detested sham in any form never let a shoddy job go out of his shop. When he took a man's he gave in return for it a dollars value in material and workmanship. Patrons were not slow to learn this, whenever the name John Kan was seen on that vehicle was recognized as one of merit. Year by year the business grew, from time to time more to be added to meet the demands upon the plant which had won a rep- even into neighboring states. The plant grew until it covered a large part of the lot on street Hotel Macon. After many years of successful its founder passed away and son, Mr. E. G. Flanagan, succeeded him at the head of the enterprise. Ha organized a company for carrying on the business on a still larger scale, and it grew to such a degree that they found It impossible to meet the de- for their products without fur- enlargement. This being true the company began negotiations for the purchase of adjoining property, bin not being able to secure it, the lot on the corner of Fourth and street was purchased and a large three story brick building was placed on in 1907, X feet. At th completion of the building new and ad machinery was installed to enable them to increase the number of vehicles per day to meet the enormous demand that had grown by that time. This of course called fur the employ. men Of more workmen, and as the business continued to grow at the rapid rate it was then experiencing, additional mechanics were added. This growth soon materialized in more being needed, so with the open of the fall of 1913 plans were drawn up and the contract let for an- other building adjoining, and as large as the old one. The new ad. was completed about the Oral Of tins year and Immediately occupied with enlarged and new for the manufacture of buggies and carriages and the other departments of their business. Today the Flanagan buggies arc known and used not only in ever; nook and corner in Pitt county, but in a majority of the counties in Carolina, and in nearly every slate below the Mason and Dixon line. With the increased popularity of the John Flanagan Buggy Company their vehicles, Greenville gets share of the advertisement, the company is known Greenville is known as their home. Among the many improvements made at the completion of the new ad was a water sprinkler system cost of about which gives them much lower insurance rate. The system is arranged on the ceiling of the different departments, and should fire occur in any part of the building when it reaches to a certain heat it causes the caps that are stationed on the pipes a few feet apart to blow oil allowing a large stream of water, Octant to extinguish any blaze may occur. An electric elevator is also used in carrying stock to the different doors. Another acquisition made since the completion of the new part of the factory was the installation an inn on Page .

LUSCIOUS CRAB APPLE QUEEN OF ALL THE VARIETIES OF PRESERVES. Maine Editor Pays Deserved Tribute to Fruit, Inspired by Boyhood of Its Superlative Tooth- tome Qualities. It demands a hungry boy who has taken hearty exercise In the open air lo steal native Maine crab apples for the sake of eating them, asserts the News. Even tho red haw- plums after the fall and sweeten up the are fur more preferable than the wild crabs. Re- heavy frosts add sweeting to balls of sour fire, which makes thorn palatable to wild partridges, red and gray squirrels, and rare and beautiful grosbeaks. It is the housewives of Maine who most the wild crab for the making of tarts and beautifully pink Jellies, which stand sunny autumn windows and ripen for days at a time. The very essence of the Northern bills Is concealed In those topping tumblers of glass. No Maine housewife thinks of eat- a Thanksgiving turkey or a Christmas goose without crab apple Jelly to go along. Today It Is more highly esteemed than cranberry or summer Jellies made from barb, grapes or currants, or the col- parings of drying apples. Those small Individual cups of baked dough, when filled with Jelly and under the family name of tarts, may serve to whet one's appetite until he can reach more substantial foods. What has become of those dear old glass or Jars of preserves in brown sugar or molasses crab which were slammed In delectable sweetening with their stems Intact, so that boys with uncultivated tastes, who ate them greedily, Irreverently called them With unbroken skins and plump bodies fairly reeking in sweets, they filled Jar after Jar along the cellar shelves, and were taken to school and eaten with biscuit and butter for school dinners, and even taken to the sick or ailing as appetizers. There is not a family physician In Maine who Is not Intimately familiar with these crab apple The old when they were really boys, termed them which meant the fa- foods for finishing a meal. As malted beers and ales have taken the place of hard and new elder upon the family table, possibly apples, raisins and evaporated fruits may have In some degree crowded out crab apple preserves. Though they are going from our cellar shelves and dining tables, fond memories of them linger lovingly, nor can the passing of almanacs and cal- totally erase them. Ups and Downs of Oyster.

Every restaurant, however humble or wherever situated, as well as every great hotel, la expected during the season to have oysters on the bill of fare. In olden times the epicures of Athens and other close to the ocean had an abundance of shellfish such as we use, and enjoyed them very much. But to the Jews this kind of food was forbidden by their law. which, allowing certain kinds of rejected much Bea food, including the oyster, which was probably but little known to the ancients. ever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; It Is unclean unto Looking Forward.
