Hawley Warehouse

full week, with only the tittefing and
jabbering of sorters, slipping of belts
and occasional grooming of workers
suffering from Vulnerable complaints,
such as sore spots, stomach aches,
lumbago, rheumatism, backaches, and
cold feet, to interrupt the din of labor.
Some talk is going around of pro-
noting stool sitting marathon, or
STATION, for sorters, when apple har-
vest is over. With so many well-prac-
tised and expert sitters to compete,
we are sure 1t would boost some SEN
sational records. The winner might
fittingly be presented with fine
stool, just the wrong height for COM
fort, which could be kept as an heir
loom to prove to skeptical future gen.
erations Of sorters the marvellous SIT
ting capacity Of a worthy ancestor.
And another thing, we really should
have questions and answers" de-
partment for apple workers. Everyone
seems to have an important question.
For instance, won't some wise guy
please answer few of these?
Alex Parke: Can anyone tell me
where to find perfect sorter- mean
ing one that is deaf and dumb, with
an eagle eye for worms and few
brains remaining? We suggest in
venting robot.
Mrs. Drew: Please inform me where
can obtain man who can run q
car without gas, cook without instruc-
lions and vanish at meal times? If
you hadn't mentioned that last, Mrs.
Drew!
Mrs. Shaw: Where can sort apples
and be perfectly warm at the same
time? In the hereafter, perhaps.
Mrs. Kalkwarf: Where can obtain
sorting stool with a three foot top?
Try stand table.
Mrs. Searles: Why do a sorter's cars
always burn? Because-Well, everyone
knows the answer to that.
Mrs. Arnold: Where can I get some
liniment Bud won't drink? From the
local bootlegger.
Helen Upton: What shall I do now
that I've learned the words to "The
Strawberry Roam? Try sorting for a
change.
Bud Heath: What can I say that
will please everybody? Try saying
nothing
Mrs. Parsel: Where can we get some
satisfiable packers? Now am stumped.
I give up.
The hunting season has been quite
an occasion here, the display of styles
being almost as interesting as the
proWess of the hunters Aleck Parke
led the fashion parade, making a strik-
ing picture in a handsome ensemble
including new scarlet Eugene, so
popular this season, and scarlet jacket
cut on the lines which Paris sponsors.
Mr.. Spears horses, however, do not
appreciate the hunting season, with it's
gay costumes and whizzing bullets.
They are on the verge of Mysteries,
in spite of their masters reassuring
words. Mrs. Martin, too, was badly
upset when an ardent hunter almost
shot her for "chink", and Mrs. Kalk-
warf more than suspicious where her
yellow pullets are disappearing to.
Hunters, drop your guns and dodge
the rolling pins!
More circumstantial evidence in the
Teddy -Snuce (Snooze, Snoose?) case.
We heard that same old ditty, "I'm
Alone Because Love YOU, down here
Saturday. when Teddy substituted for
her aunt, Mrs. Saith.

Mrs. Barge and Mrs. Mykol go into the
first stages of Information. Last Sat-
urday they were seen down on their
hands and knees, mailing down apple
boxes in which to house their feet in
company with couple of warm bricks
during the coming weeks. Hot dawgs
Last week Mrs. Shinn brought a
bottle of milk to Irvie; Saturday, she
came to work with John McFee. What
do you suppose she is trying to do,
girls? Land year round job?
Mrs. Beyers returned to work We'd

The crew enjoyed Mr.. Hills annual
treat Of sugar stick candy, Friday.
Lottie Beldin Is practising her fenc-
ing lessons with darning needle.
Last Wednesday she made pass at
Percie and scored point. AS Percie's
back was turned at the time, she was
at disadvantage, but she quickly
rose and pursued her assailant through
the house. Lottie made good her es-
cape, however, for she was In none of
the places Percie looked for her.
The largest pack-out of last week
was on Friday, with 1,247 boxes.
Last year the war-cry was "Chain's
broke" with Mrs Heath as cheer lead
er; this year the theme song is "Culls
Culls! Culls!" with Mrs. Moede Groom
ing the lead.
Charged with not carrying an ash
tray in her car as the law provides, and
with speeding at the terrific rate of 81
miles an hour, Mrs. K. E. Grant put
in an anxious afternoon Monday,
wondering what she could say to Judge
Meeks. The discovery, however, that
it was just hoax and that the legal
looking card she had found tagged onto
her car at noon was joke on the part
of some as. yet undiscovered culprit,
cut short her criminal career, much to
her relief.
During George Barta's absence Tues
day, his place as bumper was taken by
Archie Borden.
Sponsoring the aesthetic and artistic
development of his crew, Irvie, on
Tuesday, brought beautiful picture
and hung it, amidst adn1iring acclaim,
in prominent position over the work
table in the warehouse, where it re-
mains, constant inspiration to the
workers.
(AnOlOpieS tn Kin1inp)
If you can rise on frosty autumn
mornings
And, smiling, grab a piece of soggy
toast,
And wash it down with gulps of boiling
coffee,
Trembling lest, late, you merit Irvies
roast;
If you can run and leap into your lizzie
And into frigid breezes head her nose
And hold your breath, and, pushing on
the windshield,
Just make the warehouse as the whistle
blows;
If you can sort, with numb and aching
fingers
(The while frisky breeze plays up
your spine)
The scaley fruit with which the bumper
sWamps you,
And take your neighbours blame, and
yet not whine;
If you can talk, but do it on the @. T.
And hear all that is said on every side,
But seem quite busy when the boss is
looking,
And yet not smile too sweet nor grin
too wide;
If you can fill the unforgiving Gull belt
With just the kind of worm -stung fruit
you'd orter,
Yours is the job, with all the grief
that's in it,
And what is more, you'll be darn
good sorter.
