  • MAIL BAG GOSSIP News and Personals from the Field should be sent in so as to be in the Editor's hands before the end of the month. Shortening of articles, due to space limitations, sometimes is necessary, but is no reflection upon the contributor. Care will be taken to preserve the writer's meaning in all cases. Columbus Office Last month the young men in the office who are bowlers challenged some of the older men to a bowling tournament. The challenge being dulv accepted, the tournament was held at the Athletic Club, the following men participating: O. Burlingame, W. F. Smith, Captain, Captain, C. B. Weakley, J. S. Meyers, J. W. Mayhew, A. W. Riley, W. E. Weakley, M. J. Hessenauer, C. E. Elsass, C. C. Lutz. R. B. Rigdcn. The young fellows won all three games with scores as follows: 832 to 826, 806 to 746, and 797 to 787. After the tournament, Mr. Burlingame, the Captain of the older men's team, "set 'em up" to an excellent cold lunch, soft drinks, etc. On May 9th, Mr. and Mrs. O. Burlingame were presented by our old friend, the Stork, with a fine baby girl, "Naomi," weight nine and one-half pounds. Mr. Burlingame is our Chief Engineer, and while he admits that the younger men in the office have a pretty good bowling team, he, in other respects, does not have to acknowledge superiority. When the Girls Athletic Club put on a parade last month to advertise their minstrel show, Miss Bertha Weichold carried the GAC banner, dressed in a "rube" suit, with overalls, mustache, goatee, mask—and everything, and was stepping along at a lively gait, when a friend from Bucyrus, whom she had not seen for ten years, walked up with outstretched hand and said: "Hello, Bertha. When did you get in?" How do you suppose this man recognized Bertha with her face covered? Proctor Mr. W. C. Beardon was called to his home in Asheville recently, on account of the serious illness of his father, who, we are sorry to say, died before Mr. Bearden arrived. Mrs. F. T. West went to Asheville to be with her husband, who is taking treatment there. We hope Mr. West will soon regain his health and return to Proctor. ^WC 5W k-:Ki;r f ^"f. .71 . ip? :'''''^^4p§li llllil, ;™::a::Ilyi:::i'i:fl|lli ■Z ■■:■■:£■ ■■:-r::^--~r:-y: f^llpftli Mrs. Teresa Kalklosch and Her Son, Robert. Mrs. Kalklosch is a stenographer in the Columbus Office and a very willing and efficient worker. She is a widow, her husband having died of the "Flu" during the epidemic. Robert is nearly six years old. Doesn't he look like his mother? Mr. J. W. Fisher has been promoted from the position of supply man to that of Superintendent of the Hazel Creek Operation, succeeding Mr. J. G. Horner, who has gone with the Charlotte Belting Company. Milam Camp Mrs. W. E. Brown has just returned from a visit, with friends in Maben. Mr. M. W. Duncan and family have recently moved here. Mr. Duncan will take the position of Camp Foreman. Mr. W. J. Osborne visited us the last of the month. Mr. R. L. French has been transferred from Milam to Bud, W. Va. We regret very much to lose Mr. and Mrs. French from our community. Mr. B. H. James, Storeman, is spending his vacation at his home in Graham, Va. Mrs. G. E. Crawford, of Beaver, has been a visitor here this week. Quite a number of people from Milam attended the baptizing at Matheney Chapel, Sunday. We are pleased to welcome among us again Mr. and Mrs. Thurman Brown. Mr. Brown is in charge of the cutting. Since Mr. Howard Davis, our Woods Superintendent, has traded his motor car for a mule, he has been making better time on his regular trips to the woods. Mr. Lee Graham, our former cutting foreman, has started a camp on Clear Fork. It is believed that our saw filer, Mr. John Sturgall, will move to Clear Fork soon, although he does not seem to mind the twenty mile walk on Saturday nights and Sundays. *> *» Beaver Mrs. V. L. Rogers has returned from a visit to her parents at Roanoke, Va. Mrs. C. E. Pierce, from Beaver Camp, was visiting Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Crockett last week. Mr. F. C.
