| Summary: | Between 1914 and the late 1960s, the Champion Paper and Fibre Company published an internal newsletter, called The Log, to share news about the Canton mill, the community, and its employees. After 1940, news from the entire “Champion Family,” which included mills in Hamilton, Ohio; Houston, Texas and Sandersville, Georgia, was featured in each issue. . -- J : .• ' - ' • • JULY 1945 IN nus ISSUE Pa.tents and Ptogl!ess _________ ___ - - 2 Fish'e"r:me·n.

Before that invention, all paper was laboriously forn1ed by a vattnan -vvho dipped a screen or "mou]d" as it was called, into a vat of pulp and "' ater and skillfully gave the rnould a series of shakes while the \Vater drained out. Two helpers the coucher and the laymanassisted in pressing and drying the individual sheets of paper. .t\fter a hard tv' elve-hour day, this cre\v of three would turn out from two to four rearn , and they were small sheets at that.

It was interested in results, and if the thing wa ufficiently novel and useful that was all required. (3) A very disturbing note in all th is w<rs recent!_ sounded by a decision of the Supreme Court. The Court declared a patent void becau e the invention lacked the "flash of genui · ., which it said was necessary for a valid patent.

Originally, Van Dusen cla.ims th organization was called "The Grand Order of Unbenevolent, Purely Mercenary, Short Snorters."

The Spirit of '76 · The spirit that prompted our forefathers in , 1776 to declare that tbe Ameri an Colonies should be free, is kept alive throughout the years by lr:dependence Day. The Spjrit of · 6 \Va not on ly faith-believing their cause to be ju~t and right but they were willi ng to sacrifice their _ li ·e and their fortunes, i·n order that the people of America mi ht be free and independent. When supplies \Vere insufficient for their need , they did not complain. They could hiver and glory in their priva tions, because they realized it was the only road to victory. The Spirit of ·76 reminds tls that National grea tness lies in personal qualities rather than in wealth and material things- and as we approach another Independence Day, we are reminded that the arne forces which won the American Revolution and the Libertie which we Americans enjoy today, must be preserved if America is to remain a great • natiOn. It wa from the tower of Independence Hall in Philadelphia in 1776, that the fi rst triumphant notes of the Liberty Bell ''Procla1med liberty through out all the land unto the inhabitants · thereof" were sou nded. Today we find oursdv~s engaged in a great world conflict, battling for the uppre sion of militari m and th pre-. ervation of our political f.r cd m and national ind p nden to rid the world of dictators and help t liberate the helples . people of many nations that hav been en 'laved by · · azi m. For, in the words f Thoma J ff erson: ''\Ve bold th ~ truths to be self evident, that all men are r ated equal, h t they are endowed by their Creator wi h c rtain i 1alien bl Rights, that arne n thes are Lif , l il · ty and 1h Pursuit f Happiness." On thi Indep odet Day, July 4 1145 , l t u . lumbl r pray that the Spi rit of '76 nny be th · spirit that I ad tl t victory anJ p ace.

Cost of World War II Past TrillionDollar Mark According to estimate , the cot of World \¥ar II ha already passed the trillion-dollar mark. The total expenditures of the Allies is e timated at $565,000,000,000. This does not include China' expenditures in her fourteen-year war with J apan. The Axi expenditure to date is said to be about $445,000,000,000. The above fierures do not include the destruction and damage to public and priva e property, which, no doubt, increase the total cost several trillion more, -an amount . which can never be e\ en approximately e ti mated. Of course, the greatest loss is in human live , limbs and suffering. To date, the casualties in the American Army, Navy, and Air Corps bas passed the million mark, which means that approximately one out of every eleven persons in the service have been killed or wounded.-And the end ' 1s not yet.

PAPER The· .Pull-Together Spirit Necessary Teamwork Is E,ssential " The little prefix "co' ' placed before certain word, Hch a cooperation, coexi t co.adju t, co u ~ tain , etc. , means that :all partie included are jointl and mutually \ ·orking~actin · together to accompli h the main obje tive ll'l ·iew-aiding a an equal. After the creation of the world ~nd ali thrn o-~ tberem:r God said, let U tnake man." Although God i omnip · te:nt -all powerful yet, he realized that the pi rit of c~operation among men wa necessary in order to eliminate frietion, and cause thing to mo e moothly, efficiently, and Ilghten the burden of life by placing equal re pon ibility upon each of us. · The <'Pull-together Spirj t'' is Gad's Spirit-nat ure's way of doing thing . The earth) the air, the sun hine, and the rain mu t coo erate to pr duce egetation. Without the cooperation of the e four elements there would be no gra s, no trees, no life of any kind-the earth would be a desolate, unhabitable place~ So, by the cooperation of the Godhead _Iehova, Je~ u s Chri t and the Holy Spirit man was made, and Ninto his nostril · God breathed the breath of life and man became a living oul. And God gave man dominion over ail the earth, and over every living thing. But, he also made man a. free agent to d-o a he pleased; to cooperate ·with hi fellow man or otherwise. However, "' e have long since learned that in unity there is strength, therefore, in order to achieve our objective, we know that the best and safest road to success i the cooperative trail. By traveling the cooperative way, there is always a helping hand to aid us when we are in trouble. But when traveling a lone, we have no one to call upon. ' God's way is "Let Us". Do you know -any better way? \Vorking together, pulling together, we can accomplish_much ·more in life. Therefore, like good soldiers, we should cultivate the spirit of cooperation. On your job, t he cooperative spirit is essential to succes.s. When pulling a load, if there is on~ horse in the team that fails to pull with the others, the load 1s much harder to move and cannot be transported as far in a given period of time or as easily; as if all the horses in the team pulled together_ . Bear in mind that the Pull-together Spirit-Teamwork is the spirit that counts. Butyl Alcohol From Waste Sulphite Liquor Accordin~ to a recent iss ue of Forest Products News, Professors L.
