  • Between 1914 and the late 1960s, the Champion 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.

And let me not ch.eris h. a snarl or a sneer ~ Or play any s niveling part; Let me say, "There they ride, on wha'm lau.rel's bestowed Since they played the gan1e better than I." Let me stand with a smile by the side of the road , And cheer as . the winners go by. So grant n1:e to conquer, if ·c0nque1" I ean, By proving my w0rth in tlae fray, But teach me to lose like a regulm." man, And no~ like a craven I pray; Let me take off my hat to the warriors wh:o strode To victory splendid and high, Yea, teach me to stand by the side of tne road And eheer as the wi.nners go by. -Selecte(]L • • •• • ; ''• .•T : I ~ •• •• • ' ~ l ! : •4' 1 • • ' z .•; I t f t t t . l .... ........" • • • ••._ ., • •• ••_ .... ........ .... .... -· ........... . . .. .. . .....,. ............... .... . . •I!'
