  • THE BARK **• New River <•** Our shipment for February up to the middle of the month was in excess of what we had previously shipped in the same period of time, and we hope that we will be able to make some record shipments very soon. . . Ray Johnson, sawyer, has moved into town from his suburban residence on the pike. He explains that his car froze up several times and the walking to and from work was "too much." . . A singing school has been organized and is in progress. . . An extension to the old telephone line to New River is now in touch by phone with the camp store and camps No. Two and No. Three. We'now also have direct connection with the New River mill and superintendent's home. . .Mr. Ross Elliott, of Oneida, Tenn., is busy with a crew of carpenters improving some of our dwellings by the addition on •each of two rooms each 14' x 14'. . . L. C. Carroll is with us again in the interest of making more hickory rods. The rods now being manufactured will complete three full cars going from New River within thirty days. . . A 20-foot wareroom has been built onto the New River store, an improvement which has added materially to store convenience and appearance. . . We have recently had with us the following business visitors: Messrs. W. M. Pryor, R. W. Horton and S. L. Calfee, of Columbus and Mr. S. M. Wolfe. Asheville, N. C. We were pleased to have them come to see us, but this time they caught us "napping on the job," for they arrived here at 4 a. m., before any of our population were out of bed. . . Our filer, Wes Autrey, recently had a unique accident that very nearly had fatal results for passengers in his Chevrolet Sedan. His car was parked out from the road and close to a cut some thirty feet deep through which the Southern Railway runs. Tlxre is hardly a period of thirty minutes during the day during which one or more trains do not pass on this road. The battery on the auto was run down, so the car had to be cranked in starting. Two passengers were in the car when Mr. Autrey did the cranking. To his amazement and alarm the car started off backwards and pitched over the bank, landing on the rear end in the deep cut and straight across the south bound track. After some scurrying around for help and light Mr. Autrey and others finally hauled the nearly unconscious boys out and pulled the car off the track. Mr. Autrey now has a new car, and when he parks it he never leaves it in gear nor does he take it across the bridge at High Point. . . There is an old decrepit looking "flivver" that is usually parked in the mill yard every morning. It does not look as if it could get around, but it does. However, one morning recently it "froze up" and we were five men short on the yard. One day a wheel came off and a lumber piler had to take half a day off to hunt for it as it "took off" down a valley and was finally located half a mile from the car. (These stories were inspired by Paul Bunyan, but they're true). , ft', ft ■:>:''■■■■;.■ ■■ :.. . ■ -■:■ .-!:.---■■.:■" 'yL..L The men who work "down around the "store" at Nantahala: Left to right— J. A. Nuckolls, store manager; J. W. Stanley, payroll clerk; H. D. Franklin and J. T. Bennett, store clerks. •* Nantahala <** Visitors are rather scarce of late here owing to No. 28 Highway from Franklin being in a rather muddled shape during the winter. Because of the disagreeable weather the Sunday School attendance has fallen off, but we still have a fairly good attendance, considering the mud and the distance we have to go. We thank our leaders for keeping up the good work. The teaching and singing has been good. We were very sorry to hear of the death Sunday, February 3 of Mrs. J. W. Bryant, wife of our mill superintendent. Mrs. Bryant was known to many Ritter people, having . lived at several of our operations, where she endeared herself to all who came to know her. She was a devoted Christian, possessed of sterling qualities and endured the suffering of months with the fortitude of a hero. We miss her in many ways and will continue to do so. Few of us possess as sunny a disposition as she had. The body was taken to near Lenoir, N. C. for burial. Surviving are the husband and eight chil dren, two of whom are married. The others live at home. To the sorrowing family we wish to express our deepest sympathy. CARD OF THANKS Through the columns of the Hardwood Bark we wish to express our appreciation to our many friends who gave so affectionately of their time and sympathy in the loss of our devoted mother and companion. (Signed) J. W. Bryant and Family. The new sidewalks are an improvement. We will mave a better town when Charlie Rhodes gets the finishing touches put on. . . The "flu" epidemic which kept Dr. McGuire almost walking in his sleep for several weeks has subsided and nobody is more glad than he is. We have been lucky in that Mrs. McGuire is a good trained nurse. . . Among recent business visitors were W. M. Pryor, our president; S. M. Wolfe, S. L. Calfee and Giles M. Caldwell, also Mr. George Peck, who looked after some "splendid" repairs recently. . . We were glad to welcome back to our beautiful mountains Mr. W. R. Cole and family, who have been living at Barrett, W. Va. and are former residents of Hazel Creek. . . Mr. Ed Martin, who recently came to Nantahala as relief inspector, returned to his home in Fitzpatrick February 15. Ed is an old employee of our company in point of service and the writer knew him back in the palmy days of the old Mortimer, N. C. job. He was delighted to work with him again, for it has been thirteen years since they separated and how vividly they recalled and enumerated the interesting happenings and the outstanding factor was the tie that binds, for, says Mr. McCollum: I knew him and he knew me, Thirteen years unfolded, you see— The beauty, the joy, the fruitful end, Of living, working and making a friend. Mr. Bob Lee. one of our former Hazel Creek workers, who has been away from the Ritter family for several years, is back with us. He is our block setter and extra sawyer. Physician (to rich patient) : You're all run down. I suggest that you lay off golf for a while and get a good rest at your office. —Ex. He: This dining room table goes back to Louis XV. She: That's nothing. My whole dining room set goes back to Gears- Hoebuck on the fifteenth. —Typo Graphic. Nine
