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.

Is it something peculiar to papermakers, or do people m all trades have that insatiable curiosity about how other plants in their field opera te? Take the case of C1urley Simpson, Hamilton Cham­pion gu.ard. Charley and hi wife, Edna, came clown to look over our big state of Texas. T he primary purpose of their visit, of course, was to visit their daughter~ Laura, and her husband, Leonard Bailey, who is a Houston Division packer. Like all other papermakers, Charley had to tour the rnill befoTe he ldt here. He made f irst for the Plant Protection Office where be swapped tales and hobnobbed with the Houston staff. . Maybe it is because we don't see the ·nor thern visitors who don't, include a "postm.an's holiday" in their vaca­tion trip, but it certa)nly seem that they aJl do. Ancl from what we hear of Houston visitors at Hamilton, o·ur people do the same thing. l\Jaybe it is a na tural result ot Cham pion enthusiasm. -~H - TWO K'> fE sl•owr1 o btl • a1· the rl. •tgh-c tfi of tW() h m­p t ns.
