Waste Not,
Want Not!
Wo read a story in a newspaper
the other day about
one fairly large company
which had to shut down for
a couple of days?with employees
off the job?because
of a shortage of one particular
type of material.
Now some shortages from
time to time just can't be
avoided no matter how hard
everyone tries to schedule
things just right.
But one type of shortage

supplies.
Waste not. want not . . .

What we waste today

job tomorrow. And that not
only hurts the company, but
also can hurt us as well in
the way of temporary work

Spring Fes/ivit/
Att nicts Hundreds
The annual Spring Festival
presented by the Lvdia Community
was given May 7 at
the Lvdia School Park and
attracted hundreds of viewers
to see the colorful performance.
Following an English
Spring Festival theme, the
entire program was a well
planned series of singing,
dancing and colorful costuming.
Children from all grades
at Providence School took
part in the event which was
presided over by Queen
Gwenda Tucker, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Richard Moore
and her court of honor.
The entire program was reproduced
in the last issue of

directing the pageant were

Director, and all the
teaching staff of Providence
School.
a minimum isn't such a hard
job. Those of us who try not
to waste our own money accomplish
that by thinking
before we spend.
Same way with waste of
time or materials on the job.

then we can usually keep
waste very small or eliminate
it almost entirely.
