Without it most every business would fail. This is true in every thing we undertake, if you have co-operation you stand a better chance to come out on top. It has been said that a hoase divided against itself cannot stand. This can certainly be ap plied to a large business. If each employee of a concern will co operate with his employer we would have better working con ditions. When you work together in this manner your employer will do a lot more for you than he would otherwise. Co-operation is a valuable asset to everyone. We find co-operation in schools, churches, in factories, and in all walks of life. A great number of things have been accomplished through co operation that otherwise would have been a failure. The NRA is an example of co-operation on a large scale. None can ever say that they have lost anything by co-operat ing with someone. Because I know it to be a fact that every business man wants co-operation in his particular business. So let’s all co-operate and help keep our particular business on top. —An Employee of the Winston Mill. All that some of us want is just enough to give us a reputation for being so well off that we don’t need to pay our bills promptly. ^ocTety, Hege-Martin Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Martin, of Winston-Salem, announce the marriage of their daughter, Vera, to George Hege, on Sunday night, December 23, 1934.

A pair of eyes to see all the in' teresting and beautiful sights the world about her. A mind to train in thinking pure thoughts and planning ^ useful life. A heart to love all that is beau tiful in people, especially those at home and school and church- ANOTHER YEAR Another year is dawning! Dear Master, let it be. In working or in waiting. Another year with Thee. Another year of leaning Upon Thy loving breast. Of ever deepening trustfulness, Of quiet, happy rest. Another year of mercies. Of faithfulness and grace; Another year of gladness In the shining of Thy face. Another year of progress. Another year of praise; Another year of proving Thy presence all the days. Another year of service. Of witness for Thy love: Another year of ti'aining For holier work above. Another year a-dawning! Dear Master, let it be, On earth, or else in heaven, Another year for Thee. —Frances Ridley Havei'g^^-
