March 3, 1947 FIE L DCREST MILL WHISTLE Rayon Weaving (By Virginia Hurd) Going around in circles would not ap ply to Billy Brown’s motor trip home the other night. It seems the gear shift fail ed to operate and all he could do was drive backwards. Witnesses verify that Roy Martin and several of his close friends had an en joyable time when they celebrated last week-end. Puff! and out went every candle on his birthday cake. Just as easy as wishing on a star. Off to Draper goes Charlie Pulliam. Hope you like your new home, Charlie. February certainiy holds a signifi cance to our inspecting department. Cic ero Hall, Daisy Hopper and Margaret Oldham celebrated their birthdays this month. Time marches on for everyone except George Bateman. Wonder why a birth day passed him up when this isn’t Leap year? We have seen many new faces in the Weave room. They are Adams’ Electric crew from Reidsville rearranging looms on the first floor in order to make room for new loom installation later in the year. Our weave room will consist of 252 looms after being completely rearranged. The weaving family welcomes Charlie McNair.

First, by directly investing their savings in a personal business or by becoming part-owners in other com.panies. Second, by indirectly investing their savings through banks and insurance companies. Third, by being a customer—purchasing the goods and services of other workers. There s a fourth way, not so easily recognized. Here’s how it works: We all have jobs because someone else wants to buy and is able to buy the products that we make. If there is not that “customer demand’’ then the jobs can not be furnished. “Customer demand’’ is built up and maintained by offering goods and services of high quality at reasonable cost. The way in which we who already have jobs perform them determines the quality and cost. This in turn governs the “customer demand,’’ hence the job opportunities for others.
