HOW TO FIND WALL STUDS:
From the American Home, a few helpful hints
on HOW TO FIND WALL STUDS:
1. Tap wall using a wooden block. Wall
sounds hollow between studs, solid over them.
2. Studs usually run in a vertical line above
baseboard nails.
3. Verify stud location with a SMALL drill.
(Special for the Echo) CHAPEL HILL—Old
Well Publishers of Chapel Hill announce the pub
lication and January release of IN THIS THE
MARIAN YEAR by young N. C. poet H. A.
Sieber of Hendersonville and Chapel Hill.
Mr. Sieber operates the well-known Ranch
House supper club in this university village. An
alumnus of the University of North Carolina
(1947-1951), the poet returned to Chapel Hill
upon his release from the military a few months
ago.
An early poem by Sieber appeared in 1942 in
THE ECHO, Employee publication of the Ecusta
Paper Corporation, when he was a student at Bre
vard Elementary School. His father is Charlie
Sieber of Ecusta. Like the rest of folks, the young
poet "went modern”, and IN THIS THE MARIAN
YEAR may be some rather difficult reading for
some people. Nevertheless, this volume of new
poetry is an interesting example of what is being
done by advance guard poets nowadays, and for
those who read it . . a rewarding experience.
rOTHER SIDE O' TH' TRACKS
By Eugene Eggert
December! Already. Sort of time for reflections.
Looking back, I guess most of us can say that 1954
wasn’t too bad as years go. And for those for
whom it wasn’t so good, we hope 1955 will be
better.
We still have some vacations to fall back on for
news. And a vital statistic too. Ain’t changin’ yuE
name a vital statistic? That’s what Edna Waldrop
did. From Waldrop to Holden. Hope it wears
well and will bring all kinds of happiness.
J. O. Davidson spent Thanksgiving week visit
ing his and his wife’s folks.
Doc and Mrs. Levy took a jaunt to Atlanta.
Quite a town they se2.
Dick Moore is on vacation at the time o’ this
writing—^get him later.
Mr. & Mrs. Schur are on vacation in Miami.
Nice time o’ year, I’d say.
Got us some Nimrods too. Harold Owen, Clar
ence Tinsley and Troy Zachary went — Nuttin!
Fellers, we like venison.
Raymond Nicholson says he worked around the
house. Should be getting done one o’ these days,
Ray.
The A1 Skinners will be found enjoying their
Christmas in their new home at 201 Park View
Drive. Hope you got all your painting and fixin
done for the Holidays, Al.
We, on T’other side o’ th’ tracks want to take

And the very Happiest and Best New Year. And
