A welcome visitor to the Pulp Mill was Ralph “Knuckle Ball” Morris. It was just like old times with “Knuckle Ball” around. Your reporter joins with the entire Pulp Mill in wishing “Knuckle Ball” the best of luck and a speedy return. Another visitor a few weeks ago was Captain Ralph Waldrop. Ralph says that he is ready for Ecusta to take him back, but Uncle Sam says no, not for a while yet. L. C. Carter says he has bumped his head so many time^ over the same pipe down on the breaker beaters chest that when the pipe sees him coming it just moves out 01 his way. R. V. Allison says that there is a lot- of difference in going to ool this day and time than when he was a boy going to school. He said the teacher sure would whip him for smoking in class, but they don t seem to care for that any more. One of our old Pulp Mills boys to pay us a visit from the fighting front one day last week was John Sorrells. He says that the front is a good place to be away from. John has been in service for the past sixteen months. Best of luck to you, John. Everyone was glad to see Bill Hunnicutt, who visited us this month. At present Bill is stationed at Camp Blanding, Fla. Woodfin McCanless says that he is glad to hear that the Saturday night round-up is going to be back on the air soon.

With nature and our labors, the results show for them selves. Like the squirrel we have work- ed to save up for the knowledge the necessities of life. Many of us are going back to school and it has been a pleasure to work with the many groups and departments here at Ecusta with the loyal cooperation of the man agement and co-workers that they have shown to us. Why does Conrad W. like to work in the cafeteria? Maybe a good-looking girl? Are we sure that Willie L. har vested crops last week, or did he go squirrel hunting? Why is John Me in a hurry to get home every afternoon? To see his bull-dog, I guess. Why does Cicero G. always grumble about running a lawn niower? Because his legs are so f^T?
