US GIRLS
There’s nothing we had rather be
than “Hostess with the Mostest”
But sometimes as we all agree
we fade into a “Ghostess”!
Our guests, as gracious as can be,
are swell and always mean well.
They laugh together heartily
and weave a saccharine spell!
There’s just one thing that gets our goat
in patter-pat and chit-chat
We serve souffles and someone says.
“You really shouldn’t have done that”!

AVONDALE.
Individual effort is the basis of our entire Zero Defects Program. A person
who does an extra good job is recognized for his accomplishments.
Avondale encourages employees to communicate with management.
Employees are asked for suggestions that will help their job or benefit the
company in any way. Many employees respond.
But it doesn't stop with employee response. Management responds,
too. In fact, over 90% of the suggestions received are put into action.
And, we’re a better company for it.
At Avondale, we realize that the individual is important. And we
see to it that individual effort is rewarded.

NEWS from your
HUMUCBT

Your hair is dead the
part you can see, and comb.
This is a little-known fact.
Most individuals think of
their hair as being alive, and
it is the portion that is
beneath the skin. However,
the hair that you can see, and
feel, is dead.
The hair that protrudes
through the skin is composed
of dead cells which have been
molded together, and pushed
out through the pores of the
skin by the live cellls. Hair is
one of the wonders of
nature —a wonder that
cannot be changed. There
are no wonder medicines to
increase the amount of your
hair.
Medicine is our business.
Only the finest pharmaceu
ticals are used in compound
ing your prescriptions. See us
the next time you have a
prescription, or have need
for non-prescriptive medica
