McLester has returned from F’rance, and is at present employed as craneman in the Calciner. Mr. R. E. Lee i.s off on a two weeks’ vacation. —L. G. D. Mechanical Notes In further reference to Mr. Hunni- cutt’s trip to Henderson and points north, the barbecue and et cetera at Henderson, and the good roads and ad ditional et cetera around Mas.sena, we have learned from good authority that Mr. Hunnicutt has purchased or other wise come into possession of an auto mobile—an Overland, slightly used, but in first-class running shape, equipped with proper number of wheels, with tires, windshields, carburetors, gasoline tank (with some gasoline in it), etc. Doubtless by the time the Bulletin is ready Mr. Hunnicutt will be traveling to and from the plant in orthodox Master Mechanic style—via auto, as does Mr. Jones, of Massena. It is con fidently expected by all that we will have the opportunity of taking free trips to out-of-town ball games, etc., as soon as the little matter of license is attended to. We would therefore request all who anticipate these rides to exercise due patience until the license is received. One of the old boys, Mr. John II. Bolton, has just paid us a short visit, having just returned from abroad, where he attended the settling of the little dif ference of opinion between Germany and Others, concerning who was to control the world. John—I should say Lieu tenant—Bolton was with us from the start, and we all hope that he soon re turns. The trip seems to have done him good. He was quite fat, and most snap- pily arrayed in service cap, shoes with out caps on the toes, identification tag, and all that which goes to make up an officer of this, our. United States Army. The following is a letter Mr. B. A. Miller just recently found on his desk on coming down, and which he has of fered for publication: “My Dear Brother Miller:— “What one was around here whose needs were so great that he must needs appropriate to his own use my work shirt, which was not only patched in various places, but was more or less covered with that all-pervading carbon dust?

Hendley and family will also leave in a few days, for an automobile trip to Baltimore and points North.

A year ago he might have complained al having to make two trips a day to Falls, but now he seems to like the n If anyone should ask why Mr. J.
