However, there is no need to travel

spotty, the sport of trollers has been

With colder weather in prospect
the going probably will get little

Penney Associates
Receive Bonus At
Christmas Party

A Christmas party for person
mel of the Laurel j. c. Penney
company store, their husband:
and wives, was enjoyed Tuesday
evening at the parish hall
Twenty-one people attended the
affair, which began with a dinner
and was followed by an exchange
of gifts, dancing and bingo
games. Christmas carols were
sung.
The orchestra for dancing was
composed of Mrs. Percy Page,
piano; Mr.. Page, saxophone;
Erwin Roberts, drums, and Mrs.
Herman Kugas, guitar.
An important part of the pro-
gram was the presentation of
Christmas checks to the store
personnel.
The board of directors of the
j. C. Penney company some time
ago authorized a special payment
equal to two weeks pay for all
full-time associates who have
been employed for the full year
of 1948 and on a proportionate
basis for extra and part-time as
sociates as well as for those en-
ployed less than a year.
All associates throughout the
company share in the payment
except those of the management
staff, whose earnings are deter
mined largely by the company'5
long-standing profit-sharing plan.
S. C. Johnson, manager of the
Penney store here, said that more
than $4,000 Penney associates all
over the United States will par
ticipate in the payment, includ-
ing 10 at the Laurel store. This
is not a Christmas bonus in the
usual sense and is homecoming.
