People You Knowj
Earl D. Raynor of the Finishing
Department, came to work at Car
omount in January, 1946. He has
worked in the Finishing Depart
ment since that date.
Earl was born on December 2,
1918 in the Benvenue Section of
Nash County. He has lived in that
area all of his life except for eight
years when he worked in Warren-
ton with a tobacco warehouse
company. After this he returned
to Benvenue and sought work at
Caromount Mills.
Earl is a sportsman. He likes
hunting and fishing, attends all
the baseball games and when not
working on Saturday he gets in
a football game.
While interested in all sports he
is primarily a hunter and a dog
trainer. He states that he has been
training dogs since he was seven
vears of age and he has one of the
finest packs of beagle hounds to
be found anywhere. Earl raises
puppies, trains them to hunt and
occasionallv sells a few: but he
j
is primarily interested in having
a good pack on hand when hunt
ing season opens.
Earl is especially fond of bea
gles. They are small and can hunt
out rabbits in thickets which lar
ger dogs cannot penetrate. The
beagle is a one man dog and will
not hunt with strangers. He makes
an ideal pet because of his size and
devotion.
Earl hunts a great deal with
Harvey Robinson of the Dyehouse
and their pack of beagles is eager
ly awaiting the rabbit hunting sea
son which opens on Thanksgiving
Day.
Last year their pack of dogs ac
counted for 140 rabbits.

Our Service Men
As we sit down to the Thanks
giving table far is the vast im
provement in our festive fare as
compared to that of the Pilgrims.
And as we can enjoy the tradi
tional turkey, we can reflect that
it is not exactly the same type of
fowl the Pilgrims feasted on. Mod
ern turkeys are tendered, tastier,
having been fed on nourishing,
scientifically regulated feeds in
turn have been grown in chemi
cally protected and fortified soils.
So also the bread, cranberries,
vegetables and fruits which accom
pany the dish are better in quality
and have been protected far more
carefully in their journey from
field to kitchen than anything our
forefathers enjoyed
As a result of this phenomenal
change, we can give thanks that
more of us are eating better food
than ever before . . that this food
is more easily and safely preserv
ed and transported over tremen
dous distances . . . and that
science has given to modern man
the promise of a longer life to be
enjoyed in better health. Dyelines
