Sgt. Kenneth Palmer
Stationed At Avon Park
Sergeant Kenneth Palmer, son
of Mrs. Ada Palmer and the late
James Palmer, is now stationed at
Avon Park Replacement Training
unit and is serving as assistant
engineer and waist gunner on a
Flying Fortress.
Sgt. Palmer volunteered in the
army in July, 1942 and was as
signed to the armored force. Be
fore serving: with this unit he was
injured in an accident and was in
the hospital at Fort George Meade,
Md., for several months.
Upon discharge from the hos
pital he was sent to St. Petersburg,
Fla., for basic training. From the
latter he was sent to the Citadel
in Charleston, S. C. After complet
ing work there he was sent to the
University of Illinois where he took
army engineering. He was trans
ferred from there to Jefferson Bar
racks in St. Louise, for engineer
ing field training.
From St. Louis he was sent to
the Army Air Force Flexible Gun

he was classified for specific duty
in the Heavy Bombardment group.
Sgt. Palmer has a brother, Fred
Palmer, Motor Machinist Mate
second class, who is on his way
home from the Southwest Pacific.
A Plymouth Rock hen be
longing to Mrs. Shuford How
ell, of Howell Mill Road, must
have been disturbed by the
thoughts of the invasion. She
laid an egg last week after the
Americans and the British
crossed the Channel to France,
of a dark brownish color, with
a number of distinctive "V's"
etched on the shell.
There has been much discus
sion among those who have
seen the weird looking egg,
as to this deviation from nat
ural color and the designs with
which it has been decorated.
Some seemed confident that
under the great tension of the
invasion, the hen had scratch
ed the "V's" and that the color
was significant of the dark
hour in history.
Mr. and Mrs. Tom Lee have ar
rived from Wilmington and are
occupying "Fairhaven", the Lee
residence on the Fairview Road.

work, and not handouts and char
ity," the shoe manufacturing exe
cutive said, in discussing the gen
eral plan of going to the head of
every business in the county, and
putting up the plan to create jobs
and have them waiting when the
men return.
Mr. Rollman created scores of
jobs after World War I, and found
in every instance that the workers
were efficient, and could turn out
as much in production as fellow
"A one-Iepped man can sell
tickets at a theatre as good as
one with two legs; a man with one
arm can do many things in plants
as well as a man with two. It
is just a matter of owners of busi
ness taking time to look about and
making a few changes that will
create jobs these handicapped men
can do when they return," he con
tinued. Mr. Rollman has already consult
ed Washington officials, and they
have encouraged the project, and
termed it one of the best they had
heard of.
The plan will be sent to every
military hospital, and instructions
issued that every wounded man
from Haywood be told that there
is a job awaiting him in the coun
ty upon his recovery and discharge
from service. This news will be
worth much more than medical
treatment in many instances, it
was pointed out. Before the plan
can be publicized in hospitals, it
will be necessary to have a general
idea of the number of jobs that will
be available.
The general survey of the county
will get underway at once.
Joe E. Rose has donated office
space on the second floor above
the rationing board for Mr. Roll
man's use in carrying on this work.
All owners of business interest
ed in finding ways to give the
handicapped soldiers employment
should contact Mr. Rollman at once.

years ago and built a home, where
he and Mrs. Gill expected to make
their permanent home after his re
tirement. He had made many
friends here since his first visit,
and he was possessed of an unusual
genius for personal relationships.

former Miss Mabel Jenkins, of
Dallas, Texas, to whom he was
married on October 2, 1918; one
