News And Gossip Say! Have you heard about— Sh-h—here she comes. Isn’t that a divine pair of coupon number 18s. I’ll bet they were on sale tho. Meow! But getting down to delivering the goods, we have gossips of all sizes and shades this month. We have one choice earful that de serves to be in the limelight and that is the marriage of Odell Mc Call to that man who used to come around, Robert H,ead. She is no longer with us, but nevertheless 've wish them all the happiness, and so on ’n’ so forth. While mentioning the newly Weds, we can’t overlook “Little Henry,” even if he' did do us dirty by keeping it secret for so long. We’ll forgive him tho, and extend our wishes for the best. The Finishing Department’s own ace pilot, and “grease monkey on the side,” Merrill Capps, has taken himself away to help out that well- known Uncle of ours. Happy land ings, “Sunshine!” Another of our Finishing force, Birdell Monteith, has taken the patriotic urge and is joining the W.A.A.C.s. That cheerful “pan” of hers has grown familiar around here and we’re going to miss see ing it, as well as those red shoes. However, we appreciate and ad- niire greatly what she is doing. So—here’s to you, Birdell. There’s no mistaking the fact that Jessie likes steak. She buys it these days half a cow at a time. Wonder if Vic got that sun burn he’s been complaining of from Weed patrol in his Victory garden. Harry Drake showed up with a G.I. haircut t’other day. Mary Ellen Jones has been out for some time due to her appen- I WHO’S WHO —BY STAFF WRITERS— DUNNE AND NELSON HELEN “Preacher” DUNNE, Supervisor of women in the Hand Booklet Department, is from Jersey City, New Jersey, and proud of it. Helen joined Hand Booklet way back in 1934 as an “inserter,” and when Champagne moved to Pisgah Forest in 1939, so did Helen. She has had two promotions since coming here. In February, 1940 she was made “forelady” and again in February 1943, was promoted to the position of wo men’s supervisor. Helen is mar ried and lives in Brevard. Her- husband, Jimmy, is also an Ecus- tan. He is employed in the Stitching Department. MARIE “Chief” NELSON, Forelady in Hand Booklet De partment, has been with the company for four years. She is a native of Transylvania, having always lived in Brevard. Marie came to work for Champagne in July, 1939, as an inserter. Early in 1940 she was promoted to “forelady.” Marie is married and her husband is also employed at Ecusta as a machine tender in the machine room. Inspection Shift C Hello Folks! This is the voice of Inspection, echoing through the roar of the rewinder. Faintly we catch a sound of the little every day tragedies throughout our midst. First comes Brown, with his sleepy frown, hoeing corn by sun light, warming baby milk bottles by lamplight. We wonder if this is not worse than the swing shift. Who could be the unknown ad mirer of Amie W.? More power to you, Amie. A speedy recovery from his swift illness is wished for Walter H. Hang on, Walter! What could the dreamy look in Willa Beth R’s. eyes these last few weeks mean? We think the answer is B. G., maybe. Gee, did anyone see the happy faces of Dot, Evelyn and Wanda last week! Could it be that they have had letters from someone in the armed forces? dix, which she no longer has. We missed her and are glad to have her back again. Now she can tell everybody about her operation. Nancy and Jo Davis need no further introductions. They have made themselves quite well known when they “gave forth” with their vocals at the recent square dance “Solid, he says!” ‘ - WHITMIRE TWINS THE WHITMIRE TWINS, Martha and Margaret, are new comers to Ecusta, having come to Hand Booklet about a month ago. Their home is in Brevard. However, they attended the Ros- man school and were graduated from there this past spring. They are employed as service girls in H. B. D. They like to square dance and go to parties, all kinds of sports, especially swimming. WILSON TWINS THE WILSON TWINS. Hand Booklet Departm*'^! can boast of having somethin iiat no other department has, .hat being the unique privilege of having two sets of “twins” employed there in. Lucille and Lillian Wilson, identical twins, came to Ecusta about a year ago. Their home is at Etowah, N. C., and they are graduates of the Etowah High school. They were first employ ed in Hand Booklet Department as service girls but recently were made inspectors. BUY WAR BONDS AND STAMPS NOTICE TO ALL DEPT.

Ethel Stover is taking hers this week. We are expecting a brown, peppy, almost new Ethel. Hal, Roy, Henry, Mr. Wilde and Stanley have already enjoyed theirs. Mr. Wilde had as his guest his son who was on his vacation be fore going to Pearl Harbor. The little Wilde is just a younger edi tion of the older one. Roy McCall is our newest proud papa; daughter, Charlotte Ann. We knew Mac was a good man but rumor has it he was best man in a wedding over in Greenville, you know, we always thought the groom was. We suppose everyone saw Doris’ picture in the papers. Good luck, Doris, our best wishes for a happy future. Roberta seems to have had a good time on her trip to Alabama, also she enjoyed Frank’s visit ex tremely. Ethel Dalton seems to be having the best Victory garden among us. Ethel S. had an accident while working in hers. Guess everybody has noticed the bruise on her arm. Was it the mule kicked you, Ethel, or did you make an awkward move with your hoe? By the way, we gardeners all have corn—on the toes. We are sorry to report Frances ill though we hope to have her back soon. Also sorry Virginia Bradley was called to Sylva on account of the death of her grandmother. ' Slim wag absent a few days from illness, but is back now. We are proud of Estle, our own “fiddler fool.” Lots of folks are wanting a square dance each week. The best news for last: Miss Nora Maureen Burnette and Mr. George Henry Owenby were mar ried in Pickens, S. C., on June 14. Mrs. Owenby attended Brevard high last year and Henry is a favorite in the Canteen. Both live at Penrose and are much liked young people. We wish them the happiest of married life. Hope to see all of you at the picnic, Monday, June 5th. ' Correction Of Telephone Numbers Of Employees H. W.

If you should place a call, stay by your telephone until you get a report, and don’t use it. If your line is busy when the operator completes your , call then you are holding up a circuit that is needed perhaps for a war call. Will you please try to cooperate with the Operator especially on these dial Phones’ as she has no way of notifying you when your call is completed if your line is busy. Under these war conditions, if your call isn’t important or ex tremely urgent, it will help if you will not place a call and crowd the lines. If your call is important and you must place it, try before 9 A. M., between noon and 2 P. M., and between 5 and 7 P. M»
