  • ■«»- THE H-ARJM40.0D BARK -i» •-*> New River <*» Considerable rain in this section has affected logging operations in New .'River woods for the past two or three weeks. However, at this writing the atmosphere indicates that spring is very near and the woods condition is back to normalcy. . . Mr. A. W, Agee, after inspecting the store car recently placed in service, advises us that it is one of the best arranged and most attractive car stores in service at the woods ■camps. "Bob" Dillon, widely known member of the Ritter family, arrived last month, having driven from Hurley, Va. Aside from getting lost, Bob says he had a pleasant trip. He has taken charge of the camp store, relieving C. E. Hanley, who will be off duty for ■some time because of ill health. As a considerable number of readers of the Hardwood Bark probably know, New River is located on the main line of the Southern Railway (Cincinnati to Chattanooga) and that a bridge 160 feet high spans New River at this point. This bridge runs directly over the two sections of the lumber yard ■and we are told by many traveling men who visit us here that in passing over this bridge on the train our lumber yard presents a most attractive and well kept appearance. Mr. Oren Colley, our yard foreman, and his men, are responsible for this good condition. On account of the long distance necessary for trucking green lumber from the sawmill to the upper yard, it was necessary to put in service additional green lumber trucks. By turning all scrap heaps practically upside down in our efforts to locate material with which to construct these trucks, we gathered together enough wheel axles to build 1 8 new roller bearing trucks. These are now busy carrying good lumber from the sorting sheds and •chains to the upper yard. With the coming of spring, the amount of traffic on the highway has materially increased. There has recently been established a through bus service from Cincinanti to Chattanooga -and a dozen buses, probably, pass the mill daily for different points. Considerable road building is now being •done in the vicinity by the state highway department. Within a few weeks, we are told, a new road will be opened, shortening the distance to Knoxville so as to make it possible to drive from TSIew River to that city after the evening meal, arirving in time to see a show and to get back to New River the same evening. Mr. Roy Ramsey, of McClure, has been transferred here and now has charge of our machine shop. Good for Roy. We enjoyed his safety first cartoon in the Hardwood Bark. . . Mr. Ray R. Johnson is the proud owner of a new Lincoln sedan. He now saws better than he did before (even) . . . Mrs. Ting Helton, who has charge of Camp No. 2, New River woods, was a business visitor at Knoxville recently. Walt Whitman could have written a good poem about this—action, action, meaning orders. Nantahala mill jack- slip and power house are shown. '-«r Nantahala <** Mr. E. B. McCollum, superintendent, complimented the men for their loyalty, resulting in a highly efficient cooperative system, with little or no lost energy and time, at a recent key- men's meeting. Mr. G. M. Caldwell followed with illustrations as to how savings can be effected. He pointed out that one should be on the lookout for savings by watching little things often overlooked. Mr. Caldwell in going over the manufacture, grading and shipments here, found our plant in a fine condition. At the conclusion of the meeting, cigars were passed around. The changes in the electric lights over the edger and trimmer were made last month. The reflectors now there are made of basswood: one is 6' by 2 8 y2" by \6V2" and the other 12' by 30^" by 16 %". They are painted white on the inside. These reflectors give better lights on cloudy days than heretofore. John Sneed, edgerman and "Fatty" Dowdle, trim- merman, have both expressed their appreciation to F. W. Tittle for his splendid job. Mr. A. W. Agee has been spending some time here, taking the place as store manager of Mr. H. A. Nuckols, who has been in the hospital because of appendicitis. Mr. Nuckols recently married Miss Minnie Calhoun. We wish the happy couple a long life together and hope to have both of them here soon. Some of our youngsters gave Miss Gertie Holcombe a surprise birthday party on a recent Saturday night. A feature of the refreshments was a guess cake. Paul Vaught was the lucky guesser and received a box of cracker- jack. Games were played and helped to make the evening merry. . . Charlie Rhodes says all he lacks now of having our town in perfect condition is a coat of red paint, which he expects to give it in the near future. . . We are glad to note that Clarence Cole, who has been in the hospital at Franklin is much improved. . . Mrs. Tine Bennett, who has been in the hospital at Franklin has returned much improved. . . Mr. and Mrs. Henry Franklin and children made a pleasant trip to Bryson City and Judson, N. C. for a week end. . . Mr. James Woodard, bill oak man, recently spent a day in Franklin on business. . . We regret to hear of the death of the little infant of Mr. and Mrs. Evan Danielson. . . Out of this high altitude and abundance, both of hills and vegetation, the heavens have poured out their dew—three days of almost incessant downpour, which very much retarded the week's work. More recently we have been having some good days and the scraper is working the highway. That "says" we can go to town soon. Always encourage your husband to loll in an easy chair with his feet on the radiator. When he goes to bed there will be about five dollars in small change on the chair. To gather one pound of honey a bee has to visit fifty-six thousand clover heads. Yet he hums at his work. You? —The Builder. Ten
