CLARK Juj^ough this is the month of the month for brides to a bridegroom, I don’t talking ^hat much, because all the tUfj/j's in the Maintenance de- Vn are too old and ugly. So lorget about that.

They will also play for the 4th of July Picnic at Camp Sapphire. The personnel of the band is mado up of about 20 children of employees and 8 employees who were members of Ecusta’s Employee Band. he talks, we wonder if he is really that old. Everett Huggins often walk3 through the shop with his pants rolled up to his knees. Wonder if he thinks the river is going to overflow? Ed Vassey brags about what a fast Chevy he has, but we often wonder. Said he had to meet the one o’clock train at Spartanburg, and he left home at ten o’clock. Anyone who is behind with their plowing, see Emmett Clark. He’s in the business. The outlook for the Maintenance department’s ball team has been rather gloomy up until last week, when “Hank” Newbury took the mound, with Ed. Vassey at first base. Final score. Maintenance 16, Control 2. Hank and Ed say if they had two more men who can play ball like they can, they’d really have a team. Chemical Lab. News Plant Research By ANNA MEIXELL This has been a month of ex citement and vacations for the Chem Lab. Thelma’s husband, Charles, has returned from duty in the Pacific. She was really “a dream walking” the last few nights of graveyard. Vacation season has started. Marietta went to the beach. For latest information on pajama styles, be sure to ask Marietta about hers. Edith has gone to the Gulf Coast for a week. We are wondering if the jade cigarette holder had the desired effect in the lounge oar?? The Analytical Lab. has been quiet lately. “Muley” is on vaca- tion and Ted is busy trying to de cide who is the most beautiful, the most vivacious girl in the Chem ical department. We suggest that Wilkie get a full time mechanic—some motor bikes work, and some don’t, when they are put back together. Bob, will the amount of milk you are getting warrant the new cow bam? If Fran is going to take sun baths, it might help “slightly” if she could stay awake. By DONA WRIGHT “Papa” Jack- Sewell says he doesn’t feel one day older since he has a little daughter at his house. By the way her name is Sharon Thalia. She was born April 27. Sharon is a fine girl. Lula is expected to see her hus band, T-Sgt L. C. Wilson, of the 8th AAF soon. Here’s hoping she will not be disappointed. Josephine and Lillie are inter ested in buying a quart of sun-tan lotion, and a couple of “fast walk ing sticks.” We all wonder if Carolyn will take up the English brogue—now that she has a new English sister. Dr. Ray received by mail re cently a lovely palm fibre ham mock from Sao Felippe on the Rio Negro in Amazonas Brazil. The hammock was sent for his young son, Brian, but anyone passing the Ray home in the late afternoons will probably see young Brian’s father taking his “beauty rest” in this beautiful palm fibre ar rangement. Mr. and Mrs. Vannah have now, as their visitor, Flight Offteer Harold P. Vannah of the AAF. That is all for this month. (P. S.) Mr. Fisher says there is a shortage of pipe tobacco, too. Blocking News By EULA GRAY Since our last writing, we have been somewhat scattered to di£ ferent departments. Mable Quig ley has left to join her hus band in Pennsylvania. Ruth Jones has decided to leave us and be Mrs. James King. She is making her home in Gastonia. Congratula tions and best wishes for you both. We now see Helen, Alma, Jean and Lucille coming in on evenings in Machine Booklet. We also see lots of familiar faces from Block ing working at different jobs in there, now. We are glad to have Norma back with us after a long absence due to illness. Sammie Hensley had a nice va- Cool And Lovely Do you want to remain “calm, cool and collected” wheu the thermometer soars to 90 degrees? Here are some tip$ that should keep you looking your best all summer long. Bathe or shower frequently in tepid or cool water, and use a good deodorant to insure dainti ness. A fragrant dusting powder will prevent clothes from stick ing to you. Dress in cool, loose-fitting clothing. Inmiaculate and well- ironed blouses will boost your morale considerably. Try a dab of your favorite cologne on your wrists several times a day. Run ning cold water over your wrists will also do the trick to relieve the discomfort of high humidity. If your hair feels hot on your neck, a short 3-inch cut may suit you since it’s so easy to keep well-groomed. On the other hand, you may be the type that can wear your hair piled high on your head. A new hair-do can do won ders for you! Eat lightly by sticking to plen ty of vegetables and sala'ds and avoiding rich desserts. Not only will a diet of this kind keep you wide-eyed, but it will also make you look much trimmer in the bathing suit you’ll be wearing so much of the time. Cold drinks aren’t nearly as refreshing as you may think. They have the opposite effect, so go easy on the lemon ades. ' Stay calm and avoid .excitement —by learning the art of relaxa tion you’ll be taking out further insurance against those hot 8iun> mer days. cation visiting her family at Mar shall, N. C. We are glad to have Geneva back, after being out some time with her mother, who has been sick. As this is our last news that we will have, ^ we must say that we have enjoyed writing for the pa per. Many thanks to the readers of our column. We now say “Adieu.”
