Providence School presented an i After a scripture, recitation and s to the edge of the school yard wh Pulling Together Gets Things Done Everything worthwhile in this world comes from people pulling together?think it over and vou'll realize the correctness of that statement. While specific individuals have been credited with the invention of this. that, or the other tiling, actually no one individual invented the motor car, for instance. It was the work of many people?each doing his share?that made the modern motor car possible. And the same point holds true for everything else worthwhile in this world? whether it be a thing, or an idea, or a belief. Why do we make this point? Simply because some folks still figure that you can get things done by being a "lone wolf"?by spurning the help of others?or just not .:*l ^41 eouperaung wiin umuis. Whether it's just a question of doing a day's work? or inventing a new jet airera ft?you've got to work with other people, you have to cooperate to get things done. Only from teamwork do we really progress. So. on the job each day, be part of the team. Work willingly with others. You ac complish moi _ that way?and life is much more pleasant for you too. Know Yourself A wise man was asked once for the secret of his wisdom. He answered, "I know that I have a lot to learn." In any activity, the man who is open to fresh ideas is likely to do a better job. And it often turns out that the people with the most skill and the widest experience are at the same time eaeer to add to their skill and experience. When you recognize that your knowledge stops at a certain point, you are on the way to enlarging it. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Norton were supper guests of Mr. and Mrs. K. N. Harrill on Christmas day.

You Are Quality Oftentimes as we work on our jobs we reach the stage where we think our jobs are not very important. That, whether we realize it or not. is a danger sign, not only to us but to the goods that we produce, i no jod mai we cio and the part that we play in the manufacturing of fine cloth have their place of importance in the quality of our products. All of our machinery is modern enough and kept in good enough condition to keep our quality good and production running along at an even keel. The person who operates each machine plays a very important part in whether or not it's good enough. So to boil it down in simple words, it depends on us?you and me?to keep our work up, take an interest in the type of cloth we make, and uphold the name of quality cloth. Doesn't that mean that we are quality? To us, it does, and we should never forget it. Don't ever lose interest in your job. It needs your effort and careful study because there is always room for improvement. One slip and the rest of our production line will show the effect. You and 1 play a valuable part in this story of the making of fine cloth. May we never think that it isn't important. It is. regardless of how small our jobs look to us as individuals. m Eft Jimmie Lydie, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray L. Lydie. celebrated a birthday January 9.
