Shucks! Just a by-word to many

Many things can be created from
corn shucks but Mrs. Lee special
izes in dolls. Colonial ladles are
her first love but she also makes
Indians, clowns, etc. She seldom
makes two alike.
She gives each doll an individual
touch. They usually have some
thing in their hand?an umbrella,
pocket book, fan or basket. The
dresses are finished differently in
design or decoration.
Some are adorned with embroid
ery and petite bows?and of course
shucks are the material used for
the decoration. The corn silk hair
is topped with various styles of
shuck hats.
Mrs. Lee's cornshuck dolls are
in demand In craft shops. Even
though she developed this proj
ect only two yean ago she has
realised lore cash returns than
from any other craft

been interested In creating things
with my hands". Her first craft,
started some eighteen years ago,
was wood carving. Weaving has
also held a great deal of Interest
and at times she thinks it is still I
her first choice.
A dream of many craftsmen has
been realized by Mrs. Lee?that
is, membership in the Southern I

(j-ITTLE SQUIRT^
is a
BIG SHOT oh -the Southern]
OUR "little squirt" is an ingenious gadget that oils car
journals automatically for the first time in railroad
history. And it does the job more effectively than it has ever
' been done before.
, But the big thing about "Little Squirt" ia not what it does
but what it repiweanta. For like many othen we are twing,
this better-railroading tool, on which a patent la pending,
eras invented right here on the Southern aa a-result of our
constant search for new ways to do a better job.
This policy of "constructive discontent"?of never being
satisfied with things as they are?leads to answers, large and
small, that help us provide continuing low-cost, dependable,
ever-improving transportation service for the South we serve.
