Eave-Droplets From Water Department By Andrew D. Harrell Sorry, Folks, I didn’t make that January or February dead line. Perhaps the respite was good for your "literary indi gestion” though. There was a good excuse for one occasion but the other I must admit was due to deadline drowsiness. How about this new stream line Echo.^ Isn’t it really striking to the eyes.^ Vacation time hasn’t quite reached this department but it isn’t too far in the future, with spring only a matter of days away. When it does get here Hunley Mehaffey is all set with a new Chevrolet. There’ll be lots of happy miles and hours of pleasure all done up in maroon. We all envy you, boy! With spring in the air so strongly we expect Richard Kuykendall to get "all up in the air.” Any day now we ex pect him to start a shuttle aero plane service from Henderson ville to Ecusta. Keep ’em flap ping, Kirk! It’s just about time for Jim Winget to spring a new inven tion on us. This time we expect it to be an atomic-powered ve hicle many years ahead of all scientific expectations. What will it be, Jim.^ One of those French Broad rainbow or brown trout.^ It’s soon going to be time to start reeling in a few of those, too. Fritz Waldrop has spring fever already. At least he’s sleep ing late mornings and "talking” gardening. That’s a good sign. Have you noticed the new structure just behind the service water pump-house and between the old and new reservoirs? If you have or haven’t—it’s the cooling tower for the new tur bine now in an advanced stage of installation. This and the tur bine is one of the most modern of its type and will add much to the capacity of out-put of power for Ecusta. Fellows, we’re going to have to step out to keep pace with the "new look” which Ecusta is taking on daily. It’s a challenge! Let’s all strive to meet it. HAVE TEN CHILDREN AND IN-LAWS WITH OUR COMPANIES Here’s another chapter in family histories: Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Price of Gloucester have seven children and six of them are connected with our companies. Add to this, three in-laws, and one grandson-in-law, and you have a total of ten from their family employed here. Mr. and Mrs. Price celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary in August. The children and the department in which they work: Anne Kitchen, Cafeteria; Pearl McCall, Amanda Powell, Reba Owen, and A. C., Jr., Endless Belt; and John Price, Inspection. Sons-in-law are Loren Kitchen, Cafeteria; Hall Owen, Inspection; Earl Pow ell, Electric Shop; and the grandson-in-law is George Summey, Jr., Cleaner Crew.
