THIS MILL SOLVES ITS HOUSING
PROBLEM AND WORKERS ARE HAPPY
Men Buy Homes On
Easy Payments; Town
Is Model
WORCESTER, Mass., April 5.
Houses for workers—the problem
that is the bugaboo of every city in
the United States —has been solved
here, in part at least.
In 1915, the Norton Co., then hav
ing 3,700 employes, was faced by
the problem of big “labor turnover”
beediuse of inadequate, insufficient
housing.
The company determined to build
—not the usual “company houses’’
which have failed to solve the hous
ing problem anywhere, but a model
industrial village. It called in one
of the best known planners and arch
itects in the country.
A 33-acre site, several miles from
the heart of the city, near Indian
I Lake, on a lofty ridge, with a beauti
ful view over open country, was se
lected.
Indian Hill Is Model.
Today, it is thq industrial village
of “Indian Hill,’’ one of the most
successful housing developments in
the United States. The workers are
all happy.
The Indian Hill Co., a subsidiary
of the Norton Co., was formed to car
ry out the development, with a view
to individual ownership, permanency
and contentment in employment, and
resultant general efficiency.
Indian Hill has no gridiron of
streets, no asphalt paving, no rows
of houses of intolerable sameness.
The streets wind about the natural
grades.
The first 58 houses were built in
two operations during the summers
of 1915 and 1916. The houses are
white frame, and have slate roofs.
Parks and Clubs.
In addition to one and two-family
houses, Indian Hill has a dining hall,
the Satucket Inn, a boarding house
for bachelors, embodying the fea
tures of a club, a similar institution
for bachelor girls of the office force,
a chapel and a recreation hall.
There are large parks, small parks
and children’s playgrounds.
The Indian Hill Co. requires from
the purchaser an initial payment of
a 10 per cent of the purchase price,
whereupon a conveyance of the prop
erty is made. For the balance the
purchaser gives two notes, one for
SIOOO payable in 12 years at 5 per
cent, and another for the balance of
the purchase price, payable on de
mand, with interest at 5 per cent,
both notes being secured by a pur
chase money mortgage.
The purchaser gives also a sup
plementary agreement to the effect
that he will purchase in a co-opera
tive bank five shares, and will con
tinue payments thereupon until his
deposits shall have matured in the
sum of SIOOO. •
Buyers Feel Independent.
This insures the payment of the
12-year-note according to its terms.

THE INDIAN HILL PLAN.
? The Indian Hill Co. gives each purchaser a schedule showing the re-
< quired monthly payments. The following table (1915 figures) shows thle
? principle of financing these homes:
Your total purchase price is $3,851.50
You make a first payment of 10 per cent 385.15
4 You borrow on a mortgage, the balance 3,446.35
The amount due in 12 years, secured by iiu.< a-.c, is 1.C.C.C3
The balance, secured by demand note is 2.466.35
Your monthly interest during first 12 years is 14.45
Your monthly payment to cooperative bank will be ... 5.00
Total monthly payments during first 12 years 19.45
Your monthly interest payment after 12 years will be 10.30
It gives the purchaser a feeling of
independence, inasmuch as he does
not make periodical payments on the
principal to the company, and en
ables him to become acquainted with
co-operative bank methods.
In consideration of this agreement
the company agrees not to make de
mand upon the demand note as long
as the purchaser shall continue to
make monthly payments of interest

“A SPLENDID TONIC”
Says Hixson Lady Who, On Doc
tor’s Advice, Took Cardni
And Is Now Well.
Hixson, Tenn.—“About 10 years ago
I was...” says Mrs. J. B. Gadd, of
this place. “I suffered with a pain In
ray left side, could not sleep at night
with this pain, always in the left
■ide...
My doctor told me to use Cardui. I
took one bottle, which helped me and
after my baby came, I was stronger
■nd better, but the pain was still
there.
I at first let It go, but began to get
weak and in a run-down condition,
so I decided to try some more Cardui,
which I did.
This last Cardui which I took made
me much better. In fact, cured me. It
has been a number of years, still I
have no return of this trouble.
I feel It was Cardui that cured me,
and I recommend it as a splendid fe
male tonic.”
Don’t allow yourself to become
weak and run-down from womanly
troubles. Take Cardui. It should sure
ly help you, as it has so many thou
sands of other women in the past 40
years. Headache, backache, sideache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, tired-out
feeling, ar® all sirfes of womanly trou-
Me. Other women get relief by taking
Cardui. Why not yoaf All druggiets.

to the company and payments to the
bank.
The result is that at the end of
12 years, a sufficient proportion of
the purchase price has been paid so
that the purchaser owns the property
free except a first mortgage for not
over 60 per cent of the value of the
property, so that he can go to a bank
for a mortgage, if he wishes, and be
independent of the company.
cently Miss Taft confided to her rela
tives the news of her approaching
marriage to Professor Manning of
Yale University. Although no an
nouncement to that effect has been
made, it is understood the wedding
will take place in July.
Miss Taft, who is president of Byrn
Mawr College, is said to be the
youngest president of any college in
the world. After President and Mrs.
Taft left the White House Miss Taft
took her M. A. decree at Yale.
