hand.
There was a great need for
a man who could translate or
ders in the mills and have |
them posted in the various
languages. The only language
he could not handle was
Greek and there was not
much need for it.
He knew Latin and his
Slav background made him
ideal for the job. He was a
technician, mechanic Of
rare ability, and mastered
each new problem with
characteristic tho Ou h
ness.
At first he became a print
er, but soon so many things
were thrust on him that in
1915 he was in full charge OF
the printing department. Ma
than Grosshandler joined the
firm as a salesman, and in
1922 Grosshandler and Kraja
bought out the other stock
holders. Grosshandler became
president, Kraja, vice presi-
dent, and Mrs. Gertrude Cor
ham, secretary and treasurer.
Own Rotary Webb Press
The foreign born looked
upon the people at the United
Printing CO. as their friends.
Kraja spoke English, Ger
man, Italian and Croatian flu
emily. Grosshandler was also
something of a linguist. Be-
tween them few strangers
came to the company who
could not make themselves
understood.
In 1919 the firm moved in
to larger quarters on w. Fed
cral st. and in 1887 another
move was necessary to the
present offices at $50 w. Fed
eral St., where the firm occu-
pies it's own tWo-story build
ing with offices and a com
plete printing plant.
They have the only rota-
ry webb press in CONNER
cial printing company be-
tween Pittsburgh and Gle
veland, and the Goth cOllat-
ing machine ever made.
This collates office forms
up to $4,000 pieces al hour
in contrast to the old 1900
hourly hand piece rate.)
AS the printing business
grew the foreign papers were
dropped one by one and il
1884 the last one rolled from
the presses.
Trained For Sea Duty
kraja was born at Ragusa
Dalmatia, a beautiful city OF
the eastern Adriatic shores
where American ships ant
yach IS carrying American
millionaires made frequen
stops.
He was one of seven chill
dren of Nicholas and his wifi
Catherine kraja, his fathe
being a merchant. Nichola,
wanted his son to be Sc;
captain and trained him il
that direction. Kraja wen
through the Ragusa schools
and was accepted at the gov
ernment naval academy
where he put in three of fiv,
years needed to be ship
captain.
He still feels the tug of tn,
sea and tries to get away TO
vacations in Florida and of
the New Jersey coast wher'
he can enjoy his favorit,
sport, salt water swimming.
The father came to Ame-
rica to try his luck and
share in the opportunities
he had heard about. When
he got sick, young Joseph
was sent to care for him.
The father died and kra ia
wanted to return home, but
his family urged him to

Tabor City Senior
Wins Essay Contest

Joan Cox, senior at Tabor City
High School, was named winner
this week Of the citizenship es-
say contest sponsored annually
by the local Civilian Club.
Her essay, titled The Home,
The First School of Citizenship"
was judged the most outstand-
ing.
Announcement of the winner
was made by DR.. Ross NJ. Will
hanson. chairman of the essay
contest committee.
The following is the essay
that won for Miss Cox first place
honors:
For the person fortunate
enough to have a good home, the
word home brings precious
memories to his mind. AS the
song writer wrote-"Be it ever
so humble, there is no place like
home" A newborn infant, be-
ing just a shapless mass, has to
be taught the book of rules cor
rectly in order to become the
kind of citizen he should be
Like the structure of building,
is is vitality important that the
foundation be started right in
order for the building to be COR
rectly built. The mother, being
the child's closest companion,
teaches it how to control its
emotions along with the many
other ways of adjustments the
child has to make as it grows
and develops.
The responsibility of bringing
up children is really the largest
responsibility one could have
for there is being a life formed,
nodded, and shaped to become
either a blessing to the world or
a curse. How very true is the old
saying-"The hand which rocks
the cradle is the hand whicr
rules the world" for the babes
of today are the citizens of the
future.
A child can easily discern
love from its parents which
gives the child the feeling of Sc
curity and the feeling of being
loved and wanted. When the
proper time and patience are
taken in teaching a child no,
just by lecture, but by compan-
ionship and examples. he groWs
