Cowan Truck Company Manufacturers of Hand and Electric Trucks and Skid Platforms


Twelve years ago, there was developed in White & Wyckoff Manufacturing Company's Plant, a, little lift truck to go under small platforms loaded with paper; pick them up; carry them wherever needed; and drop them (all without re-handling the paper ).


Mr. White and Mr. Wyckoff saw the importance of this idea and organized the Cowan Truck Company for the development of the idea; and the manufacture and sale of the trucks.


Almost at once, industries recognized the potential possibilities of this Cowan Truck, if applied to their material handling problems.


The demand has become so universal, that now the Cowan Truck Company has more than 15,000 users and is known to every type of industry.


Five Reasons Why Every Holyoke Firm Should Use Cowan Equipment :


1. Cowan will save you money.


2. Cowan will cut out damage.


4. Cowan equipment is manufactured in Holyoke.


3. Cowan will make work easier for your 5. Cowan equipment carries the name "Hol- yoke" all over the world. workmen.

" Twixt the Cup and the Lip


"Oft times many things fall out between the cup and the lip"


T HESE words were written over three hundred years ago by Robert Greene, a contemporary of Shakespeare. Greene lived a dissolute life and wrote on his death-bed "A Groatsworth of Wit Bought with a Million of Re- pentance." The words first quoted above have stuck in men's minds and we have a modern version-


"There's many a slip Twixt cup and lip."


Almost-but not-to get a thing one has planned for, labored for, thought he was sure of, seemed to have in his grasp-that is the tragedy of life and endeavor.


Such things happen from a great variety of causes-some of which could not be foreseen, some of which are the fault of others. Sometimes they are the result of carelessness or ignorance on our own part. But they happen, and we lose what we had set our hearts on, and that's the tragedy. Occa- sionally the loss can be made good-only time and labor may be lost; but usually such losses, such failures "twixt cup and lip" affect us, our children and, ultimately, their children.


What is the most important thing in your life? If the Fates were to offer you just one wish, what would you wish for ? WOULD IT NOT BE THE WELFARE OF YOUR FAMILY ?


What would be the great calamity that could befall you ? Would it not be

Holyoke City Market


O NE of the most successful retail establishments in the city is the Holyoke City Market, operated by Joseph Eisenberg. The expansion and devel- opment of this company in the past few years, especially, has been phenom- enal. About three years ago it was necessary to enlarge to meet growing de- mands and the store was extended another door along High Street, taking in an adjoining place of business. A delicatessen department of excellence was added. Within another year, the demands of trade increase, again required extension and the building was done over and a second floor and bakery added, so that the Holyoke City Market is now able to care for every food de- mand of the home, has complete stocks of fruit, vegetables, meats, canned goods, dairy products, groceries and bakery products and selling space and service that combines to make shopping easy and satisfying.

GOLDSTEIN BROS. THEATERS


The history of the Goldstein Brothers Amusement Company in Holyoke is an excel- lent criterion of the development of modern amusement houses. Some years ago, Nathan and Samuel Goldstein started a novel place of amusement on High Street which was known as "Electric Vaudeville." It was the precursor of the modern motion picture and the first venture of this large circuit into the amusement field. The time was not ripe for the "movie", however, and that venture failed. The Goldstein Brothers, foreseeing with the instinct of the real showman that the future held great things for "Electric Vaudeville" were not discouraged by this first attempt and tried again and again, developing their business with the "infant industry" until today they own and control a score of theatres through New England, playing both vaudeville and motion pictures.


A desire to come back to the scene of their initial venture prompted the promotion here of the Victory Theatre Company and in 1919 ground for the magnificent new play- house was broken. It was opened December 31st., of that year and Holyoke had the most modern vaudeville house in western New England. A year later, the Goldstein Brothers acquired a long term lease on the Strand Theatre, a newly constructed and beautifully appointed motion picture house, and shortly after leased the old Holyoke Opera House, bringing back to the city the great New York dramatic productions and well known stars, after years of absence from the footlights of Holyoke. Associated with the Gold- stein Brothers is Charles Mackintosh, cotton manufacturer, of this city, and the bond issue of the Victory Theatre was subscribed by Holyoke people, making it a real community playhouse.

Holyoke is this year celebrating her fiftieth anni- versary as a city and is reciving the praise and the glory which she deserves. One particular branch of the municipal activities of which we are justly proud is her magnificent water works system which furn- ishes an abundant supply of pure and wholesome water to ninety-nine per cent of her inhabitants.


Coincident with the celebration of the semi-cen- tennial of the city is the fact that the Water Depart- ment is also having its fiftieth birthday as water was first turned into the mains on August 6, 1873.
