this from the following: Messrs. W. P.
Marrie, W. B. Frye, L. E. Billings, and
G. M. Bryan.
Some of the boys are wondering why
R. L. Kelly isn’t wearing the necklace
he bought while away on his vacation.
Perhaps he didn’t buy it to wear him
self.
We have with us in the construction
department Mr. W. B. Frye. He is one
hundred per cent, efficient—at least, when
it comes to “pie baking.”
Slim Lowder says he has put out
more for the past two weeks than he has
for some time. Stick to it, Slim, you
may get a raise in 1924.
When it comes to cartooning, you will
have to hand it to the construction de
partment. How about it, Mr. Rhea?
We understand that Mr. McElhaney
is suffering with cramp in his legs. Why
not put the pony on stilts. Mac?
If you have any heavy timbers to
move, “Brack” Talbert says see Bill
ings.
Falls Notes
We have been told that the little “Red
Racer,” belonging to Mr. Barnette and
Mr. Rodgers, doesn’t venture on the Al
bemarle road since the “speed cop” has
made his appearance there. A pretty
wise idea, considering the high cost of
gasoline, keeping batch, and Barnette
just recently bought a pig.
We have arranged to have services at
the Club House every two weeks, begin
ning Sunday, August 29. Rev. Vick has
planned to come, or send someone in his
place. We appreciate this interest that
is being taken in us, and we all will try
to do our part.
Mr. and Mrs. Shoemaker will leave
this week for Hickory and Blowing
Rock, making the trip in their car. They
expect to be gone a week or ten days.
On their return, Mr. and Mrs. Mintz will
take their vacation.
As Mr. and Mrs. Jones were passing
Mr. Williams’ home, Sunday, they were
met by a large rattlesnake. This makes
the third one that has been killed near
the houses lately.
The ladies of this place have been very
busy for the past month, carrying vege
tables to the canning club. They find
that it is much easier to can there than
at home.
Tom Jackson has our sympathy. His
girl (?) is spending her vacation out of
town, and he is working on the grave
yard shift.
Mrs. Glarence Hoagland and daughter,
Nancy Lee, are spending a few days in
Fort Mills, S. C., with her parents.
The Electric Shop
After burning out all the Glam Shell
motors, and getting all the other Garbo’^
Plant motors going again, we though^
we were about to catch up, when tro^'
ble started on the Ore Towers. We ar^
now wondering where this is going
stop.
We are glad to have Mr. B. L. Swi^^
with us now, because besides being a I’ea^
good trouble shooter, he is fast becoiW'
ing a good armature winder. Roxy’s ab'
sence is to blame for the armature
of it.
We enjoyed our two weeks’ vacation
just fine. Now we are enjoying the
that piled up on us, and gee, it’s hard
to catch up!
Mr. V. L. Rockfield has gone to Noi'
folk, Va., and New York city, to recupe^'
ate from a ten days’ sickness.
Ask Mr. 0. T. Maynard about
vy. X, i»Actyiiai'U auuuv tha
South Carolina doctor. We haven’t the
heart.
Mr. L. J. Pope returned several
ago from a ten days’ vacation.
Mr. F. T. White returned this
from a ten days’ vacation.
Gee Whiz! Ain’t it hot?
Pot Room Notes
They say we never appreciate the
shine until we have a little rain,
was illustrated in the Pot Rooms
the
other day, when the power went off-
in the Badin Pot Rooms do not kn®^
what power troubles really are, and
haps it takes a shutdown once in a
to make us appreciate what we are g®
ting. In this connection, I wonder ^
the men were thinking of who laid o
