Yours truly overheard two of the boys discussing the long jaunts they had to put in each evening to seeure the comforts of life walking down to Main Camp and then way back. When I mentioned that the Millsite Commissary had been open and dispensing merchandise for the last three days, it was just too sad. Deminion's new quarters are now in full swing at the Millsite, having most up-to-date equipment, Mr. B.V.Woodard, Superintendent of Dominion Catering Co. Ltd., spent part of last weekend here and is now with us for a short stay checking over the new equipment and quarters. Beh To preserve our quarters from one of man's most common enemies, FIRE, Mr.Fred Jones, our Fire Chief, gives us a word of timely advice. Watch.that last cigarette before turning in -- butt it out in an ash tray and not on the floor or in a refuse con- tainer.

Lounge; on returning next morning to pick up their equipment, imagine their surprise to find a record being cut -- evidently a jar had set off the delicate mechanism. It was then found out that it had recorded the awakening remarks of the gals. Quote: "Gad, wish I was a millionaire! I'd set one of those silly alarm clocks for 6:00 a.m. every morning so I could heave the silly thing out the window", "Heck, why does the Eskimo have to leave that window open every night, this is the second time my crockery has set in this glass of ice." "Gosh, I wish I hadn't taken that last one." Who hung that awful portrait over the wash stard -- Geeze! That's not a portrait, it's a mirror", "Swish, do I ever feel. good this morning, hey, what am I
