Thanks Sparky for refreshing my memory. Knorr's wife was Audery and her maiden name was Mock. The Mock sisters married Knorr and Larson. Russell Mock was not a bad guy, very pleasant.

Knorr and Larson were related by marriage. Brotherinlaw's. Fred Barnes..... that name brings back memories. He was on the plumbing crew at the factory when I knew him. I ran around town with him and his wife when dating a Bethel sister. Knorr had another brotherinlaw at the farm. He was appointed to the farm committee around '75.

Chapter 18 New Boy 50 years a Watchtower Slave
by new boy inchapter 18. my privilege of service.
it was moved there in the spring of 1969 from the basement of the 124. why is it that people like to put laundries in basements?
the 119 was the newest of all the society’s properties.

Love reading your post. As an exbethelite myself I can relate. Although I was sent to the pressroom as my first assignment and last, I knew the other departments were hell. At least being a press operator they left you alone and you were sort of your own boss.

I remember Jim Kennedy. He died jumping from rock to rock at a park in Atlanta Ga., 1973 I think. He was a press operator. He would play on the towers of the Towers Hotel on the roof, yikes!! Never met Gary.
So many potlickers and ricky righteous people, as department heads it made me sick.

I sat next to Charlie Feckle. One time I came down for breakfast he was chewing out Knorr, up one side down the other. I circled the table and was sure not to get to close so as to get involved and throw my opinion in (ha,ha). I remember Knorr's new boy talk, ouch! He said something about get drunk and not have sex, just pass out. That talk was RAW! I sat between two sisters, yikes! won't do that again.

Good review of Bethel. One word for someone that you did not like was Potlicker. Remember that one? How about G-jobber. I had lots of G-jobs.

You didn't say anything about the three legged chairs and how they could fall over when everybody stood up for the prayer at the end of the meal. I remember my years there, what a weird trip.........groovy.....heavy duty.
