Band Leader Stillman
February 1941

Perhaps it is just natural that Karl G. Stillman 'l7 should succeed in a business whose nature is to keep the names of others prominent in print. Wasn't it he who struck up the band behind all you big athuleets? To-day's music for Karl is the whirring of the giant presses turned out by C. B. Cottrell & Sons Cos., Westerly, R. I. Its Treasurer wrote recently there is a new tone to the industrial symphony: in recent months all energies have been turned to the earnest job of building more and more airplane engine parts and various types of machine tools required by Uncle Sam's defense program.

Karl still devotes time generously to extra-curricular activities. He is Treasurer, Pawcatuck Fire District, a trustee of Memorial and Library Association of Westerly, and of River Bend Cemetery Co. For recreation he plays golf, at Winnapaug Hills Golf Club, and can be added to the list of '17 stamp collectors published in these columns last spring. He is author of an article "Extending Seventh Day Baptist Horizons" published as Bulletin 101 of the Newport Historical Society, according to recent advice from Baker Memorial Library. Karl and Elizabeth Stillman frequently spend a week or so at Hanover in the fall. In 1942 no doubt they will add a certain week in June, even as you and I?
