MILL

Boys, Mrs. Mary Terry really did enjoy the mulligan that we had at No. 1 Plant.
We hear she is anxious to know when we are going to have another one.

Fred Gibson and his crew are still keeping the area around Plant No. 2 in fine shape.
The mill is on two shifts now and there are a lot of new faces to be seen.
Mr. Fox says, "If you need any fishing lessons just see Bert Depew".
Fishing and gardening seem to be the most "talked" subjects in the mill at present.

Lee Ball showed up on the job with three sacks of guinea fowls. He traded some of them for a double shovel. The rest of the birds went to various buyers in the mill.
See Alvin Caple, Oliver Hart or Bill Donnor on the prices of shorts.
C. A. Brisby has got things in pretty good shape at No. 2 plant now.
W. E. Linch is still on the sick list but we are glad to hear that he is improving.
Joe Jensen is on the sick list at present but hopes to be back on the job before many days.
The boys in the mill want to remember John Kidd who is recovering rapidly. John has been on the sick list for some time.
A report from Austin Watts says his illness is of short duration.
