Then, the third broke in with, “I’ll just have a glass of water. I’m driving.” Augustus E. Giegengack, shown above with his secretary looking at a letter that has been written on Ecusta fine flax paper, fore sees a need for perfecting letterpress, offset and gravure produc tion techniques on lightweight papers to conform to the demands of the coming air age. His own official stationery is printed on Ecusta paper. FOR FUTURE USE Man (at Police Station): “Could see the burglar who was arrested for breaking into our house last night?” Sergeant: “Why do you want to see him?” Man: “I want to ask him how he got in without waking my wife.” OVERCURED Then there’s the sad case of a man who paid a psychologist $50 to cure him of an inferiority com plex and later that day was fined i>25 and costs for talking back to a traffic cop. Strong Machine Room Team Still Undefeated, Having Won 13 Straight Control Is Now In Second Place With Maintenance And Pulping Tied The Machine Room is making quite a record in the Ecusta base ball league this season.

ALL EMPLOYEES FROM PAGE ONE liner Club and is among the first to fly at stratospheric levels. His interest in aviation developments extends to his own official corre spondence, much of which is writ ten on fine flax airweight station ery manufactured by the Ecusta Paper Corporation. As head of the Government Printing office, Mr. Giegengack is cognizant of trends that will en able his office to fulfill its func tion as America takes a leading place in world affairs. He believes that the increase of government informative material to be for warded to other nations of the world in years to come will be enormous, and is taking steps to see that it is produced for the Government so as to reach its des tination as rapidly and ^qonondcal- ly as possible. ber making entries. Banners will be given to these winners. This is the first time that such an exhibit has been held at Ecusta. The display is really going to be a little fair in which all employees are urged to enter something they have grown or helped to grow, either in their home gardens or at the plant. Canned vegetables and small fruits, along with fresh vegetables of quality grade and flowers will make up the exhibits. This decision to hold the ex hibit is in line with the announce ment made some time ago in the Echo. This display will afford an excellent opportunity for employ ees in different departments to show to their fellow workers and to the public at large that Ecus- tans can and do produce and con serve vegetables of the finest qual ity as well as produce the finest quality cigarette paper. Let’s show to our boys in the armed forces and to the govern ment the vital part we are playing in the patriotic cause of food pro duction that is going to and is now playing such an important part in helping to write the peace of the world, garden committee members urge. Full information about the dis play will be published in the next issue of the Echo. This week Ecustans are also re minded they are invited to use the facilities of the Community Can nery at Brevard. As the result of a gift of $250 by President Straus equipment is now being purchased that will enable the cannery to double its production. BUY WAR BONDS AND STAMPS SOME MISUNDERSTANDING A batch of soldiers were out for their first drill period. The ser geant had given the order: “Left leg, raise!” One fellow timidly raised his right leg. The sergeant glared along the line for a min ute, then roared, “What silly blighter’s got both legs up?” CHEATED THE DEVIL A patient in a hospital awoke af ter an operation, and found the blinds of the room drawn. “Why are those blinds down, doctor,” he asked. “Well” said the physician, “there’s a fire burning across the alley and I didn’t want you to wake up and think the operation had been a failure.” EVEN SO, WE STILL SAY “Pop, I got a licking in school today, and it’s your fault.” “Yeah? How do you figure that?” “‘Remember when I asked you how much a million dollars was?” “Yes.” “Well, ‘heckuva lot’ ain’t the answer.” LEAST RESISTANCE Doctor: Should I give you some thing to strengthen your will pow er? She: No, give me something to weaken my conscience. IN A GUAM HOSPITAL Lawrence A.
