(Yank) Hultzman is a man who looked for steady work —and did a better job of finding it than perhaps any other living American workman. At 92 Hultzman, a retired glass blower who turned out some of the world’s first electric light bulbs, has been on the same pay roll 80 consecutive years. A spokesman for the Coming Glass Works here said, “This service record is believed to be the longest continuous employ ment record in American indus try.” Hultzman, a blue-eyed Buddha faced little man with a puckish sense of humor who wears a cap —even in the house—to protect his bald head from the cold, may well have hung up another record along the way. In the last eight decades he has chewed about 60,- 000 packs of tobacco. He started chewing tobacco at 12 the same day he went to work in the glass works in 1876 during the last year of President U. S. Grant’s second administration. “He never missed a day of work in his life—and he never missed a day of chewing tobacco,” said Mrs.* Edna Sullivan, his wid owed daughter. “He’ll still chew two packs a day if I let him have them.” The old man grinned up from his chair like a small boy caught swiping cookies. At the start of his career he was paid $3.30 for a 55-hour week. Glass blowing is hot work, and in those informal days, one of his chores was to “rush the growler”—to fetch beer so the thirsty gaffers, or master glass- makers could cool their pipes. Hultzman is one of the few sur viving workmen who can remem ber the birth of the electric age. He was on the scene in 1879 when the first glass “bubbles” w er e blown to enclose the glowing fil aments with which Thomas A, Edison revolutionized the world’s lighting. Soon as a gaffer himself,he and two helpers were turning out 1,- 000 light bulbs a day. “But I always knew the day of hand-blown bulbs would have to come to an end,” the old man said wistfully. “People needed too many.” Today a single machine car stamp out 2,000 bulbs a minute, turn out more in five minutes than Hultzman and his crew in a week. Many of the friends of Hultz- man’s youth migrated to the big cities or went west to seek their fortunes. His life story is the simple saga of a man who found happiness in his own home town. One job, one wife, five children. Hultzman has a cane but won’t carry it. He has a pair of reading glasses, but won’t put them on. He has two sets of fale teeth, but won’t wear them. Says he’ll gum it the rest of the way. Be- siles the dentures interfere with his tobacco chewing. “But he can eat anything, in cluding steak,” said his daughter. On fine days the old man 'likes to walk to a hill overlcAking the plant where he worked so m^ny years and reminisce. “I can remember they used to pay us in gold pieces ...On Sundays I used to give free hair cuts to all the kids in the neigh borhood, and sometimes I’d just cut one side and say, 'Come back next week and I'll finish it’. I used to like to go berry picking in the hills. I could get me a quart of blueberries or blackber ries in no time—chestnuts, too— and now there aren’t any in the hills. “In those days it was work, work, work on the job . . . they have it easier now . . . but when you do your work, you’re a 11 right.” Asked what he thought about the world today, the nation’s mar athon jobholder said: “It’s going pretty fast.

Baker Students Present Christmas Music At Little Mountain A program of Christmas music by the students of Little Moun tain school, under the direction of Miss Rose Hamm, County Music Consultant, was presented at the meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association on December 10th at the school. There was a record at tendance of parents and interest ed friends to hear the outstanding program presented by the group. Assisting with the program were Mrs. J. L. Drafts, piano teacher; Bonnie Boland, assist ant accompanist, and Bobby Hentz, engineer^ The program consisted of five selections by the primary chorus, children in the first; second and third grades. Members of the eighth grade presented “The Night Bef^e Christmas.” The chorus consisting of stu dents in the fourth through eighth grades sang seven selec tions. All participation in the chorus was voluntary with all students having the privilege of taking part on the program. The groups are instructed by Miss Hamm on ly once every six days. The class room teachers cooperate in the music instruction program. Teach ers assisting were Miss Eula Ept- ing, Miss Chloe Epting, Mrs. J. H. Bedenbaugh, Miss Bertha Ruff, Mrs. Sudie Wicker, in the elementary school and Mrs. J. W. Lominick and Mrs. J. W. Morris in the high school.

Attend Conference In Washington Dr. Conrad B. Park, dean of Newberry College, and Miss Hat tie Bell Lester, dean of women, represented Newberry College at “The Conference on Personnel for Church Vocations” in the New Colonial Hotel, Washington, D. C., December 7th and 8th. The conference was sponsored by the Board of Higher Education of the United Lutheran Church in America. got any better, it’s because we tried this and we tried that—we tried, anyway. “Ain’t anything bothers me. I’m happy.” Hultzman has one recent re gret—that his brother, Jake, died last December just a year before he was to get his 75-year service pin from the glass works. But he is cheered by the fact he has 29 living descendants, in cluding his son, “Dutch,” who has been 56 years on the glass works payroll and—at 70—is showing signst of settling down and staying put. this week's >/ pattern.
