  • «l- THE HARJBHOOD BARK •#> Nantahala <*>* Glen Camp is doing some remarkable sawing—38,000 to 42,000 feet a day. We are having daily mail here now, also a new United States post office in the company store—great improvements. John Sneed, Murphy, N. C, has moved in one of our Ritter homes. We are glad to welcome him to our little town. Mitchel Emmerson has gone to the Barrett (W. Va.) mill. A dance was given on a recent Saturday night by Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Younce, who live in one of the Slagle cottages * * * Alrey McGuire, Asheville, N. C, spent a few days here with his brother Dr. B. R. McGuire * * * A. W. Agee, general auditor, is spending some time with us at present. PARAGRAPHS I always make it my business to be just a quarter of an hour ahead of the other fellow.—Lord Nelson. -sjr Colleton -*•' Colleton has had no serious accidents and but few minor ones to mar its safety record. This record is attributed by D. R. Yates to the cooperation of his men, together with the campaign constantly going on and a part of which is the use of safety posters, which he finds very effective and to the point. A marked improvement has been been made in our system of sawing logs during the past year This practice begins at the pond, where H. R. Satterwhite and his efficient tong hookers, get the right end toward the mill, thus enabling the sawyer to load and saw to better advantage. Much of the success of our sawing is due to the fine work of A. J. Weeks, our sawyer, and the general supervision of H. O. Wynne, superintendent of manufacture, says our superintendent, Mr. Yates. Middleton Place, near Charleston and not far from Colleton, is famous as a fine example of English landscape gardening and for its wonderful live oaks and beautiful Camellias and Azeleas. The Estate, after the lapse of 200 years, still belongs to a descendant of the original grantee. It was built in 1741. Twelve Mab en -** In the rebuilding of twelve docks on the yard during 1927 it was found that the majority of the timbers had bad ends only next to the ground. By splicing them and installing new bracing, a good substantial job was done which should last for several years. End piling of sap gum on Colleton yard. Various devices had been tried, such as band iron and nails, blocks of lumber tacked on with nails, etc., to clamp down roofs on our lumber piles. None of these proved to be very satisfactory. Feeling that hooks made of spring steel would serve the purpose, C. J. Brass, our superintendent, had a set of two made by our machinist at the shop. They were found to work so satisfactorily that a supply has been obtained and used at all the plants. Safety First Pays Mrs. J. M. Gragg is the president of the Woman's Missionary Society for the ensuing year, following the annual election of officers held at the church December 14. Other officers elected are: Mrs. William M. Chambers, vice president; Mrs. H. F. Hartley, treasurer; Mrs. C. J. Brass, recording secretary and Mrs. F. L. Banks, corresponding secretary. Our schools closed Friday, December 23, for the holidays. Several of our teachers went to their homes for the vacation period. Mrs. E. R. Pryor and daughter Louise spent Thanksgiving in Roanoke as the guests of relatives in that city. While there they attended the foot-ball game between Virginia Polytechnic Institute and V. M. I. on Thanksgiving Day. Clifford Hartley was home from Marshall College for Thanksgiving Day * * * Harold Pryor attended the football game between Marshal and West Virginia Wesleyan at Huntington on Thanksgiving day * * * With the electricians setting poles, stringing wire and connecting up the new generator, Mr. Peck setting the new generator and engine and repairing the furnaces, and Mr. L. C. Carroll installing the manufacturing plant on the yard, Maben has been quite a business place for the past few weeks * * * Mrs. E. H. Ritchie, who underwent a serious operation at Charleston several weeks ago, has recovered sufficiently to join her husband, the Rev. Mr. Ritchie here. We wish to extend Mrs. Ritchie a hearty welcome and hope she will soon fully recover her health. A meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association was held at the church on Monday night, December 5. The program consisted of songs, readings and discussions. At the end of the business session doughnuts and hot coffee were served. The next meeting was scheduled to be held in the community building January 2. Miss Elizabeth Hall, who has held the position as assistant post mistress for some time, was recently transferred to the Maben store as clerk. Miss Margaret Braswell succeeded Miss Hall in the post office * * * Mrs. C. J. Brass has returned from Huntington where she enjoyed a visit with Mrs. George Crawford * * * The Edneys and Hartleys are new radio fans. The Ritter High School basketball team visited Pax and Eccles December 2nd and 3rd and won both games, having defeated Pax 10 to 14 and Eccles 12 to 26. Tom Damron was high point man in both games.
