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.

X X X X A Good Safety Record • F. URTEEN ' ek without a Jo t -time accident is a geod record, and we are prol}a of it, but we hope to IUJ,prove that record. We can and " e '\>\rill , if we thi'nk before we· an and then act -afely. Accident pre\rention depends upon two things forethought and provident care, That i , we hould he car:eful to examine probable effects and consequences of acts with a v·iew to aov:<Jid­ing danger. The careful employee is safety consciou,; all the time. The careless employee th ink;s after he is injured , but it is too late then. Recently the writer saw an automobile wrecked in which four people, t'\ o men and tw:-> women were almost instantly killed and one seriously injured. We reached the sce:rn.e of the accident within fifteen seconds after it occurred. There. was-··­not a groan from a,ny of the victims, only the nois.e of the engine, w-hich was sti.ll .· running, could he heard. - Two men and one woman were dead. Another woman, with gla~sy ey~s and a few gasps, soon passed into the great beyond wi,thout uttering a wo-rd. The fifth on.e ·in the pa:rty, though. sei'iei1.:1sly injured and perhaps crippLed for life, still lives with- the -hor­rible memory of it all to haunt her as long as she shall liv-e. All of the regrets of their loved ones will never bri,ng the dead hack to life, nor erase from the memory o·f the one that may li ·e, the horror of it all. Life, so easily destroyed, can never he brought back. Limbs lost cannot be replaced; therefore, we ought to be careful. The chanee-tak.er pa~rs vrith an injury sooner or later. _ We were inde.ed glad to see the W estern Carolina Safety Council trophy again in the show-ca,.se at the entrance to the plant. Howev;er , we are very sorry igdeed that it w ill pass into other hands for the month of May. O n the T sth of May one of the meq on the Wood Yard struck his foot with an axe while remo,ring bark from a log. We regret it very much. arrd are sure that he does. B~t the· time to prevent acciden'ts Is before they occur, not after. Remember, "A Careful Man i th,e Best • afeguard."

T HE Seventh Ann:wd Sta~e-Wide S~fery Con~er.ente, spoo· so red by the North Carohna Industnal O:n:n:rrussiOn, opened at Charlotte May I 4, with almost one thousand auending, and • with a program cover-ing pnctic.~lly every phase of the a.ecident prevention problem. The North Carolina Industrial Commission, and M<. T. A. Wilson in particular, is to he congratulated upon the splen­did work they are d0ing. The stand taken by the Co.nlmis ion in acc:iclent prevention has done more to develop the saiety spirit throughput the state during the past few years than even the .most visionary ever dreamed of. W e extend congratula­tions- and hope that the 'preseQt administration wiU continue in office for some ·t"tme to come. The conventioh was-, perhaps, the most enthusiastic ever held in the state. Indnstriali ts, safety engineers, highway pa­troltnen and met} from the rank-and-file :in indust ry seemed to be detennined to put_ ''Old Man Carelessne s" out of busi­ness and lock the door against further inva:;ion. The leader of industry are wak-ing up to the fact that carelessness does not pay, and that the accident pcroblem must be met with a solid front, CO'l11posed of executives and workers · imbued with the spirit of safety.

Donald Douglas, pre ident Dougla Aircraft Company, said: "I hope Junior Birdmen of America will continue to grow in size and usefulness to our country. Aviation needs many new men and I am ure many of them will come from the ranks of the Junior Birdmen of America." Also the following from W. A. Patterson, president United Air Lines: "Coryg.ratulations are due the Junior Birdmen of America, whose development into a great avia6on youth movement, with a membersh{p of ap­proximately 400,000 boys and girls is outstanding and inter· esring proof of the interest which c.an ·be developed in aviation under the proper direction.'' • Dr. Alexander Klemin, director Guggenheim · School of Aeronautics expressed himself thus: "I bel{eve that the J unio•r Birdmen of America has done more to promote an understand­ing of aviation and to popularize aviation w ith this younger generation than all other organizations . in the United States · combined." Within six months after it was organized the membership had grown to 125,000, within one year its membership was a quarter of a million. Today more than 370,000 boys and girls are proudly displaying the symbolic w ing-pin of the organi- • zatwn. The organization is for the purpose of creating an interest in building and flying of modeJ airplanes and training in skill and craftsmanship. The educational value of the organization, no doubt, is worth a great d al to the youth of America. I HOW TO . JOIN-The.

EXPERTS agree that they h1ave reasons to expect a run of colder winters for several years to come. If y\Ou expect to be living next winter where JrOU do now; and have storage space, we believe you .cannot make a wiser or more profitable investment than to lay in your full winter's supply of coal, based on what you used through the past winter. During January, February and March of this year car deliveries that normally take five days" re­Qll:. ired two weeks or more, and under good labor condi-tions. · Some towns were out of eoal in the worst weatheT and there were times when Canton had less than twenty ton. We were behind as much as six days with deliveries. The coal people say that coal is as low in price as it ·will be this year. From May 11, until July 18, twelve weeks, we will sell three ( 3) tons or more to mill employees, all in one order, for delivery to buyer's ~own home ~ at $7.00 per ton, Lump or Egg, which price includes the sales tax, pay­able one (1) ton each payday.
