National
Supply
BY Shorty Sager

Ernie "Bing" Crosby, executive
committeeman in the maintenance
department, is one of those guys
who is always on his toes trying
to do his brothers a favor. Ernie
has a knack of handling grievances
in a businesslike and efficient way
and usually gets them settled to
the satisfaction of his people. He's
a real union-minded worker who IS
interested in doing his bit to make
our unit one of the best.
BOWLING NEWS
Our good team beat the Spicer
Unit two out of three games at
the last session of the Local IL
All-Star League at the Bowl-o-
Drome Alleys. While they were
at it the boys shot the leagues
single high game for the season, a
1915 score which isn't to be
sneezed at. They compiled three
game total of 2870 with John Brug
the captain coping top honors for
the five with 692. John also con-
nected for high single game COM
ing up with a 256. Swell rolling,
fellows, and may the good work
continue.
AROUND THE SHOP
Marion Wolf enlisted in the
Army Air Corps.
Bill Morris, formerly of Dept.
Sc, was home on furlough. Bill is
in the ack ack and is stationed at
Camp Ham, Cal.
We extend our deepest sympa-
thy to Jessie Bryan of Dept. 30,
who has received word of her hus-
bands death in Italy.
Ethel Novinsky, Dept. 80, has
returned to work after undergoing
an operation. Ethel didn't forget
how to smile and still has a CHEEKY
word for everyone.
Roland Newton, Dept. 80, has
returned to work after an illness
of two weeks.
Bob Grimes of the lab has sold
his trick bicycle. He sold it to his
chum(p), Clete Myers. You'll be
sorry, Clete.
Steve Lesinski, Dept. sc, is the
proud daddy of baby girl. Con-
gratis, Steve.
THE QUESTION
Why have the foreman and
leader in Dept. 3S turned so much
of their attention to inspecting
rings. Is it because-well, maybe
we'd better not tell, eh, Frank?
Beefs are multiplying on the
Canteen machines sea- err e d
throughout the plant. Fellows put
in their money, pull the trigger
and nothing happens. This
wouldn't be so bad, but they can't
get their nickels back. How about
the management getting after this
outfit and making them keep their
machines in woodworking order.
Stanley Baranowski reports that
he has only enough matches to last
him the balance of this year, and
would like to know if he should
buy his own matches next year.
Perhaps Al Carnes would like to
answer that one.
After years Of living on the
farm, Willard Wingate is finally
calling it quits and settling down
in the city. Hey, Willard, leave
the corn cobs in the country where
they need them. There's plenty of
corn around our shop, enough 70
satisfy any farmer.
REMINDER
Lookie, folksies, | want to re-
mind you, | guess it'll be for the
last time that the National Supply
Unit is pitching New Years Eve
party and dance. Remember? The
festivities will be held in Parlor A,
Local II headquarters, 425 Win
throp st. Come and see the old
year out and the new one in. Tick
cts so cents per copy per couple.
No guides furnished.

CHAPEL HILL, N. C. (FP)-

I've the cordial thanks of all
Members of our unit for the
PARTY they put on for us last
Sunday afternoon and evening at
Local II headquarters. A good
crowd, good music, dancing, enter

were enjoyed by everybody. We
hope that we can have more such
parties and believe that everyone
who attended enjoyed themselves.
Thanks to everybody who came
and helped make the party the
great success it was.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Members of the Acklin executive

Life of the Acklin Party was
John Thomas and Zeimer with
their little brown jug.
Girls from Acklin are planning
party and gift exchange. This
has been a custom among our
girls. This year a luncheon is
being planned for Thursday after
noon.
Tony Urbaniak has been ap-
pointed to serve as welfare trus-
tee along with Frank Bennett.
Frank has been appointed full
time safety director and cannot do
all the duties of the welfare job.
We want to thank Frank for his
efforts and wish him success in
his new job.
Stewards are requested to at
tend ALL Unit meetings. Unit
problems are discussed, and all
&stewards should attend and know
what is going on.
Something every member should
know is that when the Local has
something important to be done,
the shop chairmen of all units
are called. 1t would help a lot il
some of the members of our Unit
would serve on some of the Local
II committees.

Pick Early Blooming Plants
When NaturaIizine Bulbs
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

THE IDEA of naturaliZing
bulbs in a wild garden, Al the
edges of a group of trees, or in
the lawn sounds poetic, but too
often 1t isn't because the bulbs
chosen are not suitable 10 be-
ing planted in this manner and
either don't grow AT all or are
visible for Just one season.
Naturalizing is practical only
in spots where the grass need
not be cut until after the foil
age of the bulbs has matured-
and this. in the case Of most
bulbs used, is certainly the end
of June and often into the be-
ginning of July.
The reason the grass must
not be cut is because in moving
II the leaves Of the bulbs would
be cut, too. These leaves manu-
facture the food on which the
bulb thriveS and which II stores
in itself for the next season &
growth.
