DEPARTMENTAL NEWS r FILTER PLANT By Fred E. Floyd Well, here we go again. Everything is fine over at the "Water Factory”. Boy! we sure had plenty of it the other day. After that 3.36 inch rainfall. We think that Richard Kuykendall put the Indian Sign on that one. You know, that black cloudy and pouring down stuff. Phil York has rented a cabin in the State of Penna. for the summer. Good fishing we under stand. Very stand-offish on stuff like that. My! how does he do it? Oh well. Bring my car around James. I think I’ll wheel into the city and mingle with the riff-raff. Here’s another one. Alvin Randolph has just purchased, an estate in Flat Rock, N. C. It has the tall pine trees and everything. Nice going Alvin. We will drop by for a fast game in the pale green room, eh? Larry Dixon, Jr., is all set to do some heavy farming this year as usual. Someone told him if he would keep the weeds out his garden would do better. Larry snorted and replied, "It’s a mighty poor vegetable plant, if it cannot outgrow a lil- ole-weed! So there!” Hunley Mehaffey hopes to catch a fish this summer. After all these years—maybe he will. Bennett Jones, (who is single) is writing a book entitled — How To Be Happy THO Mar ried. I’ll bet that one is a lu-lu. Fritz Waldrop is in the market for a cattle ranch. He doesn’t want cattle on it—just Schmoos. Does anyone know what vitamins are? No? Just ask Carl Enloe. Vitamins are pie and ice cream. Lewis Alexander knows of a fellow that is so bow-legged that he rubs the wall paper off the walls. Here’s an ad found in a small town newspaper. Wanted—man with wooden leg in hotel, to mash potatoes. That is enough of this. So long. Ray Schalk, former Chicago White Sox catcher, caught a baseball thrown from the tower of the Chicago Tribune Building. The ball traveled a distance of 460 feet and its speed was estimated at two miles a minute. PRINTING By Julius Tinsley Some of the fellows have said they are getting their gardens ready for spring planting. After all, Easter will soon be here, which in most cases marks the beginning of spring weather here in West ern North Carolina. Frank Hunter, a representative of Levey’s Ink Company, of Atlanta, Georgia, was a recent visitor to the Printing Department. Mr. and Mrs. Edv/ard Ahrens spent a recent week end in Atlanta, Georgia, as guests of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Nations. Mrs. Nations is a daugh ter of the Ahrens. By our bulletin board we see that baseball prac tice has begun. We are counting on Troy Drake again for another season with the Ecusta team. Troy had a very good record with the team last season. The safest way to knock the chip off a fellow’s shoulder is by patting him on the back. Violent exercise after 40 is especially harmful if you do it with a knife and fork. Cpl. Charles Moss, son of Mr. and Mrs. Doyle Moss of Rosman, is now stationed at Ft. Benning, Georgia, where he is attending a weapons school. Charles entered the Army in February 1931, and received his basic training with the 51st Division at Ft. Jackson, S. C. PAPER DIVISION - ■i-*- 18
