ONEHUNGA WOOLLEN FACTORY.

A Visit by Sir George Grey

On' Saturday afternoon Sir George Grey, in company with Mr & C. Barstow, paid a visit to the North New Zealand Woollen Conpany's Factory at Onehunga. At the worles the visitors were received by the general manager, Mr Ballantyne, who es corted them round the factory. Sir George! Grey expressed surprise at the extensive nature of the machiiievy and biile.ings, ancl more particularly at ihe iiiub of seeing tho wool going through the scouring process and the cardiiur machines, as he had until then understood a branch of this very important colonial industry, in this province, was more a rjuestion of the future than an actuality. Sir George pointed out that the advantages arising to a district so well situateel" as Onehunga lor lmmufac ing purposes, being so close to Auck lanel city, could not be over-estimated by the citizens, and the apparent com plete state of things at the mill showed that the directors had evidently under taken a work of which at least some of them possessed considerable knowledge. Sir George paid great attention to the latest additions to the working plant, and expressed his pleasure at its thriving con dition, as it must ultimately provielc em ployment for a large number of people. Themanager stated that the mill plant would not be thoroughly complete for some three weeks, after which the manager proposed to have goods on the market, and that the directors had a deal of work still to perform, bub felt that the assistance of the citizens in their determination to support a good sound local industry woulel partly repay the directors for their gratuitous work. It was stated that it was really a people's company, being supporteel by some seven small shareholclers. Its ultimate success was felt to be a certainty.

But before the Water bury Watch was introduced it was impos sible to say how much. Now everybody knows that Time is 13s lid. The great popularity of the Waterbury 'Watch is still further enhanced by the fact that it can be repaired at a less cost than any other watch in the world The Waterbury Watch is not alone the cheapest watch ill the world to buy, but it is also the cheapest to have repaired. Re pairs are charged for according to require ment, but in no case do they exceed Bfl 6d, except by mutual agreement. The Waterbury would not bo the cheapest watch in the world if it could not be repaired cheaply when required. The Company undertakes this responsibility at a nominal cost, never exceeding "is Ud, cxe.-e.pt by mutual agreement.

The Waterbury Watch has nothing to fear from ridicule, nothing .to dread from exposure. It is just what it claims to be— A strong, hanelsome, serviceable, well finished timekeeper, and defies competi tion. The Waterbury Watch is ruining the profession of the pickpocket. He has to expend just as much skill on the annexa tion of a Waterbury as he eloes on a 100 ---guinen gold chronometer. Rut its intrinsic value is so small that he cannot realise, h won't melt.
