  • ^lAll^BAG^GOSStP? 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 ■ Hazel Creek, here is the inquisitive young lady stenographer who insisted upon your indicating "whether married or single" on the photos you send in for the "'Bark." We "swiped" this photograph of her, so we are hoping we will be out of town when the "Bark" is •distributed here in the office, for we're sure she will get after us for using it. Yes, we do have some smiles in the Stenographic Department, especially when our solemn dictators approach and start a telegram by saying: "GO AHEAD SHIP, ETC." "YES, WE HAVE, ETC." It always makes us think of those "things that grow in bunches. At the Ohio State Capitol on September 29th a beautiful ceremony took place—the transfer to the State of Ohio of 77 battle flags, representing 250,000 Ohioans who served in the world war. After a parade, speeches of presentation and acceptance, the playing of the Star Spangled Banner, and during the sounding of "taps," the flags were solemnly carried into the rotunda and deposited there. They will be hermetically sealed and will keep company with the tattered but sacred emblems of patriotic service in other days. Garrett Reilly had the honor of carrying the flag of the 109th Engineers, and Mark Hessenauer walked in the parade. Mr. H. M. Fulton, of our Legal Department, hails from Gahanna, Ohio, and he is a loyal booster of the "old home town." This year he was Secretary of the Gahanna Fair, which was a decided success, with a horse show, parades, street dances, a home talent play, baby show, health conference, and the usual agricultural and home economics exhibits. HAZEL CREEK Messrs. E. E. Ritter and A. D. Carson spent a few days on Hazel Creek recently. Mr. Horace Tolbert, Supply Man, has just returned from a two weeks vacation spent visiting home folks. Mrs. J. H. Wilson and children have been visiting Mrs. Wilson's mother, Mrs. Welch, at Bryson City. The following changes have been made at the planing mill during the month: Joe Richman from checker to marker; Albert Rich- man from tier to checker; Vincent Crisp from tail end-matcher to head end-matcher; Ed Mathews from hustler to tail end-matcher. Ask "Grandpa" Herring deep the log pond is. how A. L. ("Fatty") Wilson, Hazel Creek flooring shed man, has been going bare-headed since A. L. Jr., arrived September 7th. ('Fraid his hat will get burned.) After a summer spent in comparative quietness, we seem to have g'one picnic wild in September. There have been picnics almost too numerous to mention, but practically every one on Hazel Creek has been on at least one picnic this month. The "fryers" are getting scarce. Perhaps this was caused by the supper given by the Odd Fellows Saturday evening, September 15th. Almost every Odd Fellow in town was present with his wife or girl, (if he didn't have a girl he took some one else's). Rev. Joe Wilson and Dinty Moore tied on the eating contest. No one need be afraid of rattlers on Sugar Fork. Several days ago, while discharging his duties as woods foreman, Dillard Hall ran upon a den of rattlers and succeeded in killing fifty-two. Mr. Vermilya, lumber student at Hazel Creek, came on the job with OTIS R. LAEL, JR. of Hazel Creek, age IQYs months this motto: "I'll try anything once," but one chew of "Fatty" Wilson's Scotch snuff made him very white in the face. Mrs. Ed Craddock is quite ill at this writing. Mr. J. W. Fisher was a recent visitor on Hazel Creek. BEAVER Superintendent L. O. Bailey and family have returned after twenty days vacation spent in the wilds of Wyoming county hunting squirrels and other large game. Our Division Superintendent, A. T. Crockett and family have moved to Bluefield, West Virginia, after having spent several years on the operation here. We will miss them very much, but wish them much happiness in their new home. A very enjoyable dance was given by the Club at the Community Building Friday, September the 21st. Music was furnished by the talented Lindemann Orchestra of Bluefield. Mr. Oscar Lilly, the truck man, has returned to guide the destiny of the company truck after taking a vacation of two weeks. Seven
