Sparks from the Anvil.
(By Bill Erwood)
VVe have been very busy in this
department this week repairing
and sharpening tools.
We are about through with the
concrete forms now, and hope to
soon be ready for something new.
We have been repairing shoes
for the boys this week and have al
ready half-soled a good many.
We have been sharpening plows
tor the last three or four days and
we have a good supply on hand.
There are three boys in the shop

Quincy O’steen and Bill Erwood
and they all like their jobs fine.
Gordon Ragsdale has been helping
in this department this week after
he got through with the cooking.
Greens from the Garden.
(By Gordon Ragsdale)
We have been keeping on the
job this week as regular as ever.
We have been cooking mustard
and collard greens every day since
the last report and the boys enjoy
them very much.
Mr. E. B. Cochran took a
squad of boys and killed two hogs
last week so we had fresh meat to
cook with the greens Sunday.
All the collards have just about
gone to seed. The boys hate to
see them go for they like them
fine.
Gordon Ragsdale is cook boy in
this department now. After he
gets through cooking he helps
Mr. Cochran in the workshop.

(By Bert Smith)
We have been getting along
very well since the last report and
everything is going fine.
We haven’t been doing any
sewing in this department for a
good while but hope to start sew

shirts and overalls on hand that
need patching and we want to get
through with them as quick as we
can when we start.
Gordon White, one of the sew
ing boys was paroled to his home
Monday and we hope he will make
good. He was a good worker in
here and we miss him very much.
We received a box of thread
last week and we were glad to
get it for we were about out.

hauling to do as soon as we get
started.
