Department at Craftspun Yarns Company. That was several years ago, but she's not tell ing how many (something about disclosing her age). Wania was not always in the Q. C. Department. She worked at several different jobs in the plant which gave her experi ence in oU the operations of aionufacturing yarn. She later attended the N. C. Vocational Textile School to learn the technicol processes of testing yarn. After completing that training, she started the Quali ty Control Department and has f t v t 1 ioCSeSP^*'** m m been there since. Wanza is in valuable to the Craftspun team. When Wanza finishes her job at Craftspun, she hurries home to her favorite pastime . . . Gardening. She's known to have o green thumb which every year produces an abundont supply of garden vegetables. This goes hand in hand with her next favorite pastime . . . Cooking and eating. Her gar dens, like many others, have had some unusually large specimens. She recalls one year having sweet potatoes running approximately SVr pounds each. Wanza cans and freezes most of her produce. She likes hav ing that good food year round, and you know how grandchil dren like Sunday dinner at Grondmothors . . . that's year round, too. Whatever work Wanza does, quality control, gardening, cooking, or onything else, she does it well. We're as proud of her work at Craftspun as her grandchildren are about her cocking . . .
