FOREWORD Gloversville has always been described as an ideal community in which to live. Its some 80 or more glove plants, its allied industries, its varied industries such as the Brunswick Radio Corporation and the Glov- erville Knitting Company, its modern up-to-date retail establishments, its fine schools, its splendid churches, its recreational facilities, its close location to mountains and lakes, its surfaced roads, its attractive and beautiful homes were points that caused many a traveler to reconsider and make Gloversville his home. At the same time they gave great pride to the local citizenry who enticed hundreds of other people to settle here to enioy a future of happiness, prosperity, and brotherly love. Since no previous Gracle has ever featured the industrial life of the community, the T956 Oracle Staff decided to work into the yearbook a theme- Gloves-A Handicraft Industry. Immediately the staff encoun- tered trouble on conflicting points in history about the establishment of Gloversville and the establishment of tanning. An attempt was made, therefore, to simplify the history of Gloversville and the account of the process of tanning. A debt of gratitude is owed by the staff to the Na- tional Association of Leather Glove Manufacturers and the Gloversville Chamber of Commerce for the use of valuable information that may be found within Glove Life H9551 and Yesterday and Today 119405. The staff would also like to express their thanks to J. M. Rubin and Sons for their co-operation in supplying merchandise and providing facilities for taking pictures. The T956 Oracle Staff hopes this edition will become a valuable volume in the many years to come. ill
