In the dark days of the Civil War, a country minister, who was also a farmer, wrote Secretary of the Treasury, Soloman P. Chase, ask ing that some suitable recognition of the Diety be placed upon our coinage. He suggested the words, "God, Liberty, Law,” be used. Secretary Chase was in sympathy with the idea, but he had a hard battle in Congress before it was adopted. Finally, on April 22, 1864, Congress authorized a two-cent piece upon which was first stamped the motto, '‘In God We Trust,” and in 1865 it was put on all our coinage.

The first baby of an Ecusta employee to wit ness the halfway mark of the twentieth century was Danny Lee McCall. Danny, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford McCall, is the 1950 winner of the U. S.

M. at Biltmore Hospital, weighing 8 pounds and 11 ounces. His father is employed in the Inspection Department. A man rushed into a drug store and asked the druggist what to do to stop hiccups. The answer was a slap in the face. Amazed and angry he asked the druggist why he did this. "Well,” said the druggist, "You don’t have any hiccups now, do you?” "No,” shouted the customer, "But my wife out in the car still does.” No one is small who does a small job in a big way. 11
