King Of The Thanksgiving Feast
■sf . -v...
y
With the war over, Ecustans enjoyed This Thanksgiving of 1945
more than they liave any others in a long time. On many dinner
tables, the turkey was the center of attraction.
SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR
Thanksgiving day this year has a more profound
meaning to America than it has ever had in our his
tory. We are deeply thankful today that peace has
been restored to a war-torn world, I am indeed proud
of the contributions our men and women made during
the war years. About half of our personnel entered
the armed forces and served with distinction. The
others remained faithfully at their work, maintained
the uninterrupted production of our vital products,
and have made possible the sincere welcome we are
able to give to our returniag veterans.
America has much to be thankful for. We, on this
continent are the only people in the world who es
caped the destruction of war and the terrible after-
math of misery and suffering. Those of us who live
and work in these beautiful mountains, are blessed
with all of the comforts and necessities of life. As we
consider the many things we have to be thankful for
one blessing, often taken for granted, is of particular
importance. That blessing is our security,
I am indeed happy that we work together in an
organization where the rights of each individual are
respected and where fair play and confidence prevail.
To ea-ch one of us these firm traditions provide com-
plete security and definite assurance of future hap
piness.
HARRY H. STRAUS, President.
YULE PROGRAMS
FOR CHILDREN TO
BE HED DEC. 22
Employee Parties To Start
December 20. Santa To
Be On Hand.
The Children’s Christmas par
ties will be held in the Cafeteria
again this year. The date set for
the parties is Saturday afternoon,
December 22nd. and children of all
employees of the companies are
cordially invited to attend.
As has been the custom in the
past, the Superintendents and
Foremen in the various depart
ments will distribute tickets to
the employees for their children.
Since there are too many children
to be accommodated at one time,
the practice of having several par
ties during the afternoon will be
followed again this year. Tickets
will be distributed several days be
fore the parties and each ticket
will have the time marked on it so
that each employee will know ex
actly when to bring his children.
The shift buses will be used and
the schedule will be posted on each
bus.
Santa Claus and his helpers will
be there and will, as usual, have a
Christmas present for each child.
There will also be a showing of
children’s movies.
Employees Parties Start 20th.
The Employees Christmas parties
will be held in the cafeteria again
this year with the first one at mid-

Mementos Of War To Be
Shown In Library. Others
Asked To Co-operat;e.
Clifford Cagle, chief commissary
steward in the U. S. Navy, is now
back with Ecusta, and he brought
back more than a chief’s rating.
Among his many interesting sou
venirs, which are soon to be ex
hibited in the Library display
case, are trophies from Ireland,
England and the Philippines. They
are well worth seeing, and in or
der to whet your appetite for a
view of these symbols of life in
far off lands, we’re going to list
them for you.
From Ireland, an Irish shil-
lalah made of oak stick or saplings
—this is used as a persuader when
