BERNE.

We are glad to give the facts which were promised sometime ago. A glove factory will be doing business in about two weeks in Berne. They have leased the property of Fred Shultes. All persons wishing employment are advised to call on A. S. Tompkins and obtain cards and other necessary information.

NEW SALEM.

Coal is a pretty scarce article in this vicinity. As the papers remind us, we are at war and the railroads are congested with all kinds of freight and are doing their best to deal with the situation. So long as we do not experience a blizzard we can manage very well, perhaps. Those fortunate enough to have wood ought to make use of it, and that would leave more coal for those who have no wood.

NEW SCOTLAND.

Plans for a Thanksgiving service at the church are being made.

“We’ve baked the pies you like the best,

And are willing now to stand the test;

The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

And the pies we will serve there is no beating.

So we hope you’ll every one come ‘round

And eat the best pies ever browned;

And while the Busy Bees fill their till,

You also the inner man may fill.”

A CORRECTION.

In the report of the official election returns for the town of Guilderland, printed last week, Frederick J. Van Wormer’s plurality for supervisor was shown as only 33. The figures should have been 333. At 33 Mr. Van Wormer would have a safe working majority, but three hundred looks much better in print.
