Holds His Job
For 80 Years
Frank J. (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. If it’s

A program of Christmas music
by the students of Little Moun
tain school, under the direction of

tendance of parents and interest
ed friends to hear the outstanding

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

elementary school and Mrs. J. W.
Lominick and Mrs. J. W. Morris

descant, featuring Jane Caldwell,
Dean Cannon, Gayle Fulmer, Ka
ren Mayer, Gladys Metze, Mary
Susan Koon, Ann Sites and Fay
Wessinger.

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.

Muscular Dystrophy
Drive Be Tonight
The Newberry Fire Department
and volunteer firemen will ride
tonight (Thursday) in behalf of
the Muscular Dystrophy fund
drive. Fire Chief Sam Beam
asks that those who will contrib
ute leave their porch light burn
ing beginning at 7:00 p. m. or
call the Fire Station 601, and a
fireman will come for the contri
bution.
There is no cure for muscular
dystrophy. The cause of the di
sease is not known. A contribu
tion helps in scientific research
for the cause and cure. Most of
the 200,000 victims of MD are
children, few of whom live
through their teens. A contribu
tion also provides care for these
victims of the dread disease.
This is the third year the New
berry Fire Department has con
ducted the fund drive for MD in
Newberry. Coin banks are also
placed in business establishments
throughout town and donations to
these banks will be added to to
night’s collections and forwarded
to the Muscular Dystrophy Asso
ciation.
