Envious eyes are turned to the fat goose across the river, and some there 5 'are who would like to make a killing; fi | But prudence warns that this is the i goose that provides most of the golden 2gs which promote a healthy cir- culation in Dryden. It has been said that if the mill i shut down, some other concern would ibe found willing to take advantage {of the available power. But a bird in the hand is worth several to be hatched, and an established industry is better than a distinguished visitor from the old country "looking over the situation."
