All departments of the plant will be covered and each step in the making of our paper will be explained. At the completion of the tour, terms like digestor, beater, jumbo rolls, etc., will have more meaning than before. REFRESHMENTS TO BE SERVED As a climax to the tour, ice cream and "cokes” will be served to everyone in the cafeteria. There will also be interesting exhibits on safety, rec reation, athletics, and other phases of our com pany’s program. There will be a display of all products that Ecusta makes and a step-by-step exhibit showing how they are made. The Ecusta band will play during this time. "Family Day” will be another big occasion for employees, their families and their friends and many are expected to avail themselves of this opportunity to see firsthand how paper is made and what part dad, mother, son, or daughter per forms in the making of it. PLANT RESEARCH NEWS By Dona V. Wright The shrill screams that were heard on the even ing of Sept. 14 in the TT building (and possibly throughout the mill) were none other than the voices of Frank Fisher and Oscar Summey (it seems that the elevator had come to a stand still). For details see Dr. Bryant and Mr. Posey Owens. Carolyn Ashworth spent her two weeks vaca tion at home with her sister and brother-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. Loyd Dunham of Baltimore were visiting in Brevard. Mrs. Ruth Kirby of Ft. Pierce, Fla. is spending her summer vacation with Mrs. Lillie Nicholson and family. Lillie is anticipating an enjoyable visit with relatives in Rhode Island soon. She is quite a "fisherwoman”,—so I suppose she will spend lots of her time casting for the "best in the sea.” Last but not least, before I close my column for this month, I want to express sincere sympathy from our department to Mr Frank Fisher whose mother passed away on August 24. CARD OF THANKS In behalf of'the entire family of the late Mrs. Etta Fisher, I wish to thank our many friends here at Ecusta for the kindness shown us during the illness of our dear mother and grandmother— and also for the many beautiful flowers at the time of her death. FRANK FISHER Whenever he listens intently At funny stories I’m telling, And laughs and laughs and laughs and laughs, I wonder what he’s selling. INSPECTION NEWS By Kenneth McDaris The Harvest Festival was a great success. The fruits and vegetable displays, both fresh and canned, looked as well to me as those at the Western Carolina Fair. Randall Lankford got his share of prize money and George Love won fourth prize, an electric blanket. One of our girls has really been "going places”. Hazel Arrowood is a member of Carl Sandburg’s Connemara Farms square dance team. They won first place in Hendersonville’s Apple Harvest Festival, and went to Chicago to the Chicago Railroad Fair and won out over 36 mid-west teams. Coleman Scott is raising canary birds, white rabbits and cattle. He has one registered white faced bull. Harvey Buckner really "cooks with gas”. He also heats his water with gas and says it is very economical. Ralph Brown has a new Kinkode tractor and I hear he has started a nice strawberry patch. Bill Dunn went to Tallahassee, Fla., on his five days off. He has a new motor bike but says he didn’t ride it to Florida. Jim Sheppard traded his car for a ’48 Ford pick-up. It is grand for hauling his fishing equip ment and hunting dogs. Wonder if that could be why he traded? Hubert Batson lost a 350 lb. hog. It fell and broke its leg and died. Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Meece have moved into their new home in Forest Hills. Mrs. Hall Owen has been seriously ill in a Greenville hospital but is improving. Judy Hensley is home with a sprained ankle.
