SCRUGGS. ivusd iola Catea continues on the SitK use. ne haa' been out tor Mme time with a bad case pi the flu, i out we hear fine Is much improved. . jWe are all sorry, tq. hear that Bro. a. r. coiuna lias a bad spell ot ery bipe.as, in hi3. race. They thought tor a while he had the flu, but it turned out different. -We wish for mm a quick and complete recovery, .brother Collins Is chairman o the 'printers' chapel at the E. & plant afid Is very popular .with his craft, , - .'. t . -v. 1 .... v. . . r ' .'. .v.-, : r'v: - 'r . . , -. . , . .--tr.. ,. Bro. N. L. Wolff, of the E. & B. bindery force, hurt his back very sadly somehow this week and had to leave his work; as it was so pain- nnlH nnt hand An fl stnnn lUi AAV VWUIU w T " . . w ail wish for Brother, WolfC a quick recoyery not only for bis own sake, but for the E. & BvCo., as they are short-handed in the bindery now. Bro. Harry Gittleson has quit the E. & B. Co. as cutter and we pre sume has returned to; bis home, in iNew York City.'si 'rhe bookbinders p ..New "X orK have ust' signed J. a new scale which is a good deal hif her man it has ever been before, so Brother Gittleston thought he ought to go back and get the benefit of it. We can't blame him a bit. me and would like to go back but not as a soldier, as tney have a rough time of It. From the way he talks he is leaving some good looking girl that he would like to see again. He was billeted a few miles from aris. Says the Hun aeroplanes would start coming over as soon as it got dark, which was about eleven 'clock, and bombed them until day- ght. Says he thought every plane that Germany had came over the night before the armistice was sign ed. , Says they tore things ud badly. arl is in fine health and has gained about 25 pounds since going in the army. .-. He says It's lots easier to get in , than to get out, as one doetor examines you to take you in, but twelve of them . take a crapk at you before you can get out. We welcome him back and hope our ' other boys will come back in as good condition. Brother Norrls; pressman' at the Mutual Publishing Company, is hav- ng the time of his life this week. He. ia taking a trip to Hickory, N. C, to pay bis wife's people a visit. t seems he has . - never seen them. but we predict it won't take , him long to get acquainted, as Brother Norris makes friends,, easily. He says he is going to eat Vail he wants for one ,time, especially, hogs-head and turnips. We wish for him the greatest time. ever. ; Yes;- he is the same Norris that ' slipped r away " and got married without telling us any' thing about it for some time. BroJ T. W. Adams has had flu in his ankle for the las. days. Asked. me not, to say -Mhine about it. but we know the few any : his friends would like Co know he is get ting along nicely but is still a little lame. Some one told him it was bid age coming on and had settled in his ankle, but we don't agree with them. Uncle Tom likes a ; good , many years ot being old. v: We were glad to . see .Brother Charlie King out after tllree Hweeks confinement with the flu. Brother King had a real bad case and on top nf that trot no to Quick' and had to take his bed agin. . Brother King's ' mother ws sick at the same time with the same disease, but was much sicker , than Charlie. We are glad to report though, that both are up and doing nicely. Brother Daly Jordan got the pret tiest fall you ever saw Monday morning. His feet slipped from un der- him and the back ot his head was ' the first " thing to bit ' the : floor. Of course his feet hit the ceiling: We know the fall hurt, but it was very laughable, and we who saw ; him couhia't help it. . We guessBtfiJhex Jordan will get the snow from Ws fMt next time before he steps on ia' slick floor. " Bro. H. E. Upchurch is a coupon clipper now. We saw him with some going to the bank the other day to get cashed. Brother Upchurch bought his share of Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps, but says he is going to buy one of the (Victory loan which comes oft in April. Saya he just naturally likes to cut those coupons off. We imagine it is great sport but can't vouch for it, as our (experi ence has been limited. " The pressmen met in regular meet ing February 13th. We had a real live meeting and took in three new members, Andrew' Howell at present with the Storr Ptg. Co. ; Le Breece, of Durham, .pressman on; the "Dur ham 'Herald, and Hobart DePorest of Raleigh. Brother DeForest has been with M. . J. Carroll - Ptg. Co since the death of our brother, Elon Carroll. We congratulate the new members and wish for them'ithe greatest of success; " ' Bro. J. R. (Shorty) Darden left the office Monday of this week, feel ing very badly. We fear he has the flu. They are having a hard time keeping help on . the monotype key boards, as Brother Williams i was called home on account of the death of his baby; MUss Iola - Cates ,has ., been" sick for the last two or three weeks with the flu, and now Brother Darden is off. Brother ; Spencer seems to be the only one immune and we all hope he will stay, that way. , ; Bro. Hubert Williams is in fine spirits this week. He is in receipt of a letter : from his wife who is t at the Sanatorium, telling him she has gained ; five ' and one-half pounds in the last week or so. ' Brother . Wil llama was .beginning .to get discour aged because his wife didn't seem to be getting any better, and was cost lng so much for extras at the hosp tal, but now he feels much ? better and believes his wife is on the road to, a permanent cure. We jrejoice with him and hope his wife will soon be completely cured. -Washington, Feb. 8. Tlie depart ment of labor states that in normal times the building of about600;000 homes a year is required to supply the normal growth of the country and replaces losses occasioned bj fire . and other destructive . agencies. For the past two years this normal construction has been .. practically suspended What bousing construc tion . . has been aaccomplished ..has been mainly to meet war conditions.

Get him to relate his experience to you. i am sure you wui eujujr it. Bro. A M..Krimminger, of -the S. A. I, shops,; has returned to work after being out, sick for a few days.

Fraser has gone to At lanta, Ga., to work. Brother Fraser was formerly with the Raleigh Iron Works. Guess Brother Fraser didn't want to take " a shot at making all those fine automobiles and trucks. Bro. y.GBehre has come back from Portsmouth, . Va., where he went to go to work for the S. A. 1, but was taken sick and had to come back. , Brother Behre thinks that he has a case of the "flu." But let us hope he hasn't. Thei many friends of Bro. "Jack Under, of the S. A. Li. shops, hated to see him leave last -'Wednesday. Brother Linder says that he will make the bovs think of him once and a while if he has to send us a hot of. oranges to do so. If it's all the same to Brother Linder, he may send me mine first. d- .
