Now wait a minute, fellows, wait a
minute. Let’s talk it over and maybe
it won’t be necessary for you to catch
that freight train out of town. Oh,
you just happened to be standing in
front of the depot when somebody took
your picture? Well, how were we to
know that —judging from the furtive
looks on your mug-3? After all, folks,
these three musketeers are pretty good
guys when you get to know them—as
all of us around here do. They are all
foreman in the Rayon Mill: Cyril
Hudgins, preparation Department, left;
Jesse Griggs, Weave Department, cen
ter; and C. H. Hall, Inspecting, right.
This little lady celebrated her sev
enth birthday on March 12th by having
a lovely party at the home of her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Wickham.
Her name is Nira, and we think she is
as pretty as the name. Many happy
returns, Nira. Mother is employed in
the Bleachery.
Colonel (inspecting barracks):
