Two THE MILL WHISTLE March 18, 1946 i Blanket Mill By Katherine Turner Well! We have a brand new elevator in our department. We hope there will be no more falls in our ups and downs. Once there was two Smith girls in same room of hospital, and the one named “Hilda” came home to soon. We congratulate our new brides: Miss Mozelle Johnson, who was wed to Henry Essie of Winston-Salem; Mrs. Lorlene Handy to Edd Powell, both of Blanket department; Mrs. Leona Smart to George Wiseman of Canada; Miss Peggy Hall to Willard Minter, both of Blanket department. Earlie Ball is in Greensboro for a few weeks. Miss Madeline Smart of Campbell College spent the week-end at home with her mother and new pop, Mr. and Mrs. George Wiseman. Ronnie Chambers is at home from State College lor a few days. There’s a broad smile on someone’s face. Just look at Jessie Ann Hopper. Mrs. Russell Wade enjoyed the week end in Roanoke, Va., visiting relatives.

A. Chilton visited in Danville, Va., Saturday. Elbert Yeatts, of Radford, Va., spent a few days with relatives in town and was dinner guest of Mrs. Jess Clayton on Monday night. Other guests were Mr. and Mrs. Edd Gerringer. Broadus Burgess was doing a new dance step Saturday night, when he met an old friend from Fieldale at the Y. M. C. A., Troy Merriman. We would also like to see him. Roy Saunders, recently back from the bang-bang of war, could not stand the height of the electric tower. What about it, Roy? We don’t understand. Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Hall had as dinner guests on Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Jimmie Crowder. Mrs. Crowder is a native of Honolulu and was married to Mr. Crow der last November. He has served for 12 years in that country. Mrs. Hall is delighted with every thing over here in her new home. She was particularly impressed with our food, much of which was strange to her. She had never tasted corn bread or biscuits, but according to her hus band she now makes good biscuits. She is rapidly mastering the English language and in her soft tones the lan guage sounds more like music than mere words. Twenty-six years old, with big soft brown eyes and very black hair she is unusually pretty and is making friends fast. At present the couple are living with Mr. Crowder’s mother, Mrs. Jean Crow der, near Reidsville. Bedspread Mill Mrs. Frank Jones Mr. and Mrs. Turmin Dishman, of Draper, visited Mr. and Mrs. Hylton Sauls Sunday.

Belvin Gatewood has accepted a po sition in the Weave room. Mr. and Mrs. Louie Dalton and Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Land spent Sunday afternoon with Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Macy.

Our hats are off to the folks of this department for their all-out drive for the National Red Cross recently. Robert Harris has been in a “fuddle” lately trying to decide to sell his farm to Mr. McBride or Mr. Archibald. They both want it, it seems! How’s about tossing a coin. Bob? Miss Ethel Shively, Melvin Robertson, and Mr. and Mrs. Chester Robertson and family certainly had a splendid time Sunday, seeing the sights of Lov er’s Leap, Fairy Stone Park, and other mountainous points of rugged beauty and splendor. Bleachery By Charlotte Martin Well, folks, here it is news time again and it has just about caught me with no news again, but here' goes: I’mj gonna make a stab at it.
