IT'S EVERYOr
EVERYONE'S PROBLEM
Two big problems facing
business in the months ahead
are how to increase sales and
how to cut costs. Business is
tightening its economic belt
and companies are making every
effort to outsell their competitors.
Cutting costs is one of industry's
major problems in today's
"buyers' market." It is
a constant concern of every
manager and it should be uppermost
in the minds of employees
if they want their
companies to move ahead in a
highly competitive period.
A firm can get orders only
when it can outperform its
competitors in quality, price,
delivery, and service. These
are the things the Purchasing
Department at Clinton-Lydia
Mil's takes into consideration
before placing an order for
materials, and you can be sure
the neonle who hwv our nrod
ucts do the same.
Too often, production workers
assume it's the salesman's
job to sell our cloth, and management's
job to control costs.
But they forget that their own
jobs are more important than
just making the products.
Poor workmanship causes
staggering wastes of labor,
time and materials, which not
only result in poor product
quality, but raises the cost of
the product. Yes, product
quality and production costs
depend very heavily on the
production worker.
There are a lot of little
things, too, that add up to big
costs. The worker who dirties
cloth is doing his part to
boost costs. So is the employ

AN ANCIENT PRAYER
Give me a good digestion.
Lord,
And also something to digest;
Give me a healthy body, Lord,
And the sense to keep it at
its best.
Give me a healthy mind. Oh
Lord,
To keep the good and pure
in sight,
Which seeing sin is not appalled,
But finds a way to set it
right.
Give me a mind that is not
bored,
That does not whimper,
whine or sigh;
Don't let me worry over much
About this fussy thing called
"I".
Give me a sense of humor,
I .nrd
Give me the grace to see a
joke,
To get some happiness in life
And pass it on to other folk.

What's My Line?
If you couldn't guess the
pictures, the one on the left
was made in the Shop and
the one on the right in the
Spinning Department.
Included in the Shop picture
are an outside caliper,
stilson wrench, a chuck key,
pitch guage, thread tap and
lathe shavings.
In the Spinning Room, the
photograph shows a lap hook,
travelers, rings, a top roller,
an apron and a spindle.
