That could very well be - wonder if it could be someone in the family who
printed it like for a reunion or something? It also could be a nickname for
one of the papers in that time. HMMM, very odd. I have some Bever marriages
into my families in Fountain -- bugle story is cool :)

Subject: Re: [InFounta] Blue Pencil newspaper?
I wish I had more solid info to go on--the typed transcription
describes the source as merely "the Blue Pencil newspaper." The
article itself mentions "our offices," which sounds at least halfway
professional. But I too an unable to find any such publication, and
the name is distinctly unusual! Wish I had the original clipping . . .
I'm wondering if it was really a newspaper>
The subject of the article, for anyone who knows the Fountain Co.
Bever family, is the family foghorn/bugle and its history. RM Bever
left it to his son Truman Bever. My grandmother (Lena Bever Boord)
acquired it from him, and my mother (Kathryn Jane Boord South) left it
to me.
