BOSTON. 

 Three of S. J. Goddard's young men 

 are in the army and it is impossible 

 to get even girls in Framingham, 

 where the factories are paying high 

 wages with short hours and car fares. 

 So, like many others, he is "up 

 against it."

 street on October 1. They will add a 

 floral department. The leading retail
