If any members of our staff go in for this kind of thing in the future, we shall see that they let us have their pictures. In a letter from Mr. E. P. Burr, who is now in The Hague, we learned that Mr. G. Johow, who has just returned to Germany from a trip to the United States, is most enthusiastic over everyone and everything in the whole Ritter Organization. Mr. Johow was a very diligent student while with us, and gathered much useful knowledge on his trip to the mills. He pays high tribute to the men with whom he came in contact at the various operations with regard to their kindness to him and their loyalty to the Company which made a great impression with him. A game warden coming upon a lone man fishing in a lake discovered a small steelhead anchored to a stake just under the water along the shore where the man was fishing. Pulling the fish out of the water, the warden asked the fisherman if he wasn't aware that it was a closed season on steelheads. "Oh, I am not going to take that fish. The son-of-a-gun kept taking the bait with which I was catching bass and I tied him up. I'll let him go when I get through." —Railroad Red Book. Logging Train enroute to the mill. Left to right, Andy Woodard, brakeman, Arch Bateman, Chas. Crowder, fireman, and M. D. Culbertson, engineer. Mack Hayes, barn man at Proctor. Hazel Creek The boys of the Baraca Class gave a western comedy, "An Ari zona Cowboy" on Saturday evening April 11th. A nice sum of money was realized and will be used to send a delegate to the N. C. Baraca Convention. Many thanks are due the young ladies' class for their assistance and to the officers of the Community Club for the use of the theatre on Saturday evening. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Jack Cable, Recently Mr. W. C. Bearden, Hazel Creek Pay Roll Clerk, purchased a new Chevrolet_ car, so we were quite surprised to see him out riding this "Hayburner." Maybe this is safer, and again perhaps, hay is cheaper than gasoline. Wayne Ballew, Storey and Howard Cunningham borrowing a ride on Mr. Bearden's "Hayburner." a boy, on April 11th, named Guy Edmond. The Planing Mill, having caught up with the Dry Kiln, was closed down April 25th, so everyone had a chance to go fishing. Some went fishing for trout and some went after catfish in the river. Everyone brought home a nice catch and the tales of those fishing trips will furnish something to talk about for the remainder of the summer. Mr. and Mrs. John Higdon have moved into the house occupied by Pat Cable. The many friends of Mrs. Mark Proctor will be saddened to hear of her death on April 11th. Mrs. Proctor was an earnest Christian and took an active part in the church work of the community. Rev. W. P. Elliott conducted the funeral. Mrs. Proctor is survived by her parents, several brothers and sisters, her husband and two small sons. Messrs. Ed Wilson, Henry Franklin, and Joe Rickman, went to Waynesville, North Carolina, April 25th, to take the Commandery Degree in the Masonic Lodge. Several young people enjoyed a picnic and egg hunt at Round Branch on Easter Sunday. Congratulations are extended to Mr. and Mrs. John Burger over the arrival of a nine pound boy, who first saw the light of day on April 2nd, and has been named John William, Jr. Mr. Edward Queen, a former em- Thirteen

“The Hardwood Bark” was a publication produced “for the employees of the W.M Ritter Lumber Co.” William McClellan Ritter (1864-1952) organized the company in 1901 and, from 1903 until 1926, the company operated on Hazel Creek in Swain County, North Carolina, before moving its operations to Nantahala. Published during the 1920s, the monthly newsletter typically ran to about 25 pages. “The Hardwood Bark” was filled with articles on the Ritter company and the timber industry, but also included local stories. The pages included in this collection were selected because they relate to communities within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The town of Ritter was near the junction of Hazel Creek and the Little Tennessee River; a sawmill was built at Proctor, about four miles north of Ritter. The town of Ritter has long since been abandoned and Proctor is beneath the waters of Fontana Lake.
