Rom where I sit... /by Joe Marsh Industry Looks at Our Town Maybe yon read how a group of Industrial experts have decided that -the small town is the place for in dustry?not big cities. Reasons they give are better housing, pleasanter living, and more opportunity for wholesome recreation. Well, looking around our town I'd say that was about right. Most of us own our homes, and keep them looking nice; we enjoy each other's company: and our recreations are mostly simple outdoor sports, and in the evening a mellow glass of beer with pleasant company. As Doc Walters says, that sort of life just naturally sets you up for work the next day ... whether it's in office, mill, or field. And Doc should know. He works fourteen hours, but never misses his morn ing "constitutional" or his evening glass of beer with friends. Prom where I sit, any industry could profit from being in a town where wholesome living, temper ance, and friendship are the rule. 01947, UNITED STATES BREWERS FOUNDATION, North Carolina Suit* 606-407.
