Patty Maulden, floorwalker on the 3
^11, made a funny enough sight in his
tight unionalls, but when he added that
little “chief” cap that Dick Connard gave
him it was like putting on insult to
injury. Maulden wants all the floor
walkers to don a uniform like his. Say,
but they would look classy gobbed up
like that. Big Tate would look like a
traffic cop; and one would take little
Jack West for a bell hop. It sure wouldn’t
do to let any of them wander outside of
the fence.
is not right for Saint Patrick to cop

on that day; and to prove his state-

armer, the same as Patrick; but he is
in a bone-dry State.

You noticed in last month’s Bulletin
that the day shift of pot room foremen
had their pictures in. You ought to have
been behind the door and heard those
fellows make remarks about themselves
and the pictures. From the drift of the
conversation, they believe they are a good
looking set of men, even if their pictures
don’t show it.
Business is picking up in both ends of
Building 30 lately. In the rodding de
partment, a new crane is being installed
to handle the increased overhead traffic,
as it was found that one crane was not
sufficient to serve both the pot lining
and rodding department. Mr. J. R. Dos-
sett is acting as craneman.
S. L. Russell, better know^n as Dough-
ball, certainly has a paying flock of
chickens. He says he has eleven hens
and a rooster, from which he gathers
a dozen eggs daily. We would like to
know the name of the feed he is using:
it surely must be “2 in 1.”
We are glad to learn of the recovery
of Mr. L. M. Moody’s daughter, Mrs.
Hill, of Albemarle, to whose bedside Mr.
Moody was called a few days ago. Mr.
Moody is again serving out lunches, mits,
and aprons at the pot room office.
Boyd Martin, head potman in room 26,
has been quite sick during the past
month; but we are glad to report his
condition is much improved, and he ex
pects to return to his post of duty in
the next few days.
In the pot lining department, a set of
new baking furnaces are being built,
much to the delight of Jersey, who claims
that this is the fulfillment of a promise
that has been standing for over two
years.
Mr. W. D. Kitchin, of the rodding de
partment, spent a few days on business
in Maryville during the month.
Mr. Marshall Davis, of the rod room,
spent the week-end with his family in
Montgomery County recently.
There is no entrance fee in the garden
contest. All you have to do is to start
planting.
Mr. S. A. Graham, of Lane, S. C., is
with us in the Engineering Department.
