FAIRMOUNT, IND., Nov. 21. — The wheels of industry in the glass trade were partially put in motion by two of the factories here resuming operations. The Big Four Window Glass Co. have reset their pots and are now down to working order.

The Atlas Glass Co., formerly the King City Glass Works, resumed operation with two shops, November 1, making oil cans.

Mr. O. W. Conner, of Wabash, Ind., has bought an interest in the Atlas Glass Works.

Dame Rumor has it that the Dillon Glass Works will start operation at the first of the year. Both of the jar shops have been caught with big stocks of jars.
