"I came here in 1936," he

"As farming got more ex
pensive, I decided to return
to Clinton in 1953 and I've
been here ever since. When I
came back in '53, I was determined

"In the past 25 years," he
added, "I've missed only a
few days-and those being for
sickness or a death in the
family."
"I found my association
with my fellow employees
and supervisor hard to
beat," he added.
