(Lib) Din widdle and Roy L. Russell (hold ing the News in center) who joined the News force ’way back in 1948. Mr. Russell, now mechanical sup erintendent, is the oldest News employee in point of service. He began his duties a few weeks prior to Mrs. Dinwiddie. Each received an appropriate gift from the man agement. The News was only two years old and occupied the building where the Allred Roofing and Sid ing company is now located when ‘'Lib” and “Roy” entered their apprenticeship.

In August, the News was a tabloid. I he Aug. 12, 1948, issue of the News, the iirst “Lib” had an op portunity to help publish, had many interesting stories. For in stance, Knight’s had just become a Walgreen agency, and announced the fact with a full-page spread. There was a possibility that the county-wide ban on public meet ings would soon be lifted (how many remember that swimming pools and other public places had been closed because of a polio threat?), and Mr. and Mrs. Cros by Adams had left Monday for Chicago. Mrs. "Lib” well remembers that first issue of the News. It carried the first story she had the honor to cover, that of the marriage of Miss Elsie Kerlee and David J. Nache. She gathered the facts and wrote the story all alone. The News editorial that week called for an improvement in the rural roads around Black Mountain. It was a few years later before the appearance of Mrs. Dinwiddie’s “Lib Peeks” column which has be come famous in more than one state, jhe handsome wood-carv ing of the column heading, which is sitting on the file book in the center of the picture, was designed, carved, and presented to “Lib” by her good friend, Richard Oulahan. If you look closely at the paper being held by the publisher, you’ll note a similar “keyhole” head ing which now appears in an out of-state newspaper and which was copied from the one here. After completing his work at W arren Wilson college, Roy came to the News as a linotype opera tor in the early summer of 1948. He advanced through the ranks and five years ago was made mechan ical superintendent, and placed in charge of production. He has seen many changes in the past 19 years. For instance the old model Linotype has been replaced with two model 14s, the small press by a No. 1 Miehle, the best, flat-bed newspaper press ob tainable, the hand-fed 12x18 old style job press, an open Kluge 10x15, two automatics, a 12x18 Kluge and a Miehle Vertical. There are only a few pieces of equipment left in the shop that Mr. Russell observed when he came to work, the newspaper folder, the paper cutter, and that’s all. 0, yes! Just in case you wonder who the others are, they include, left to right, Mrs. Garnet Green wood, associate editor; Gordon II. Greenwood, publisher; Fenton S. Cunningham, Linotype operator; Mrs. Dorothy Mattison, news edit or; Andrew Milovitz, pressman; Mrs. Dinwiddie; Carroll Marler, apprentice; Mr. Russell; George W. Carder', bindery; and Buddy Green I wood, copy boy. CHRISTIAN SERVICE GROUP TO MEET AT MISSION HOME The Woman’s Society of Chris tian Service met Tuesday evening', Aug. 5, in the Fellowship hall of the Methodist church. Mrs. T. R. Jurwitz, vice president, presided. Carrying out the topic, '“Mis sionary Work and Deaconesses,’ Mrs. George Moray opened the program with devotions and read a letter from a missionary, who urged young women of the Metho dist church to prepare themselves for the work of deaconesses in the church. Miss Marie Benge presented a piano solo, “Green Cathedral.’ Other young ladies taking part in the program were Miss Brenda Garland, Miss Martha Jackson, Miss Kay Wright, Miss Carolyn DOtson, and Miss Susan Jackson. Members of Circle 4 served re freshments. Mrs. Jurwitz announced that the September meeting would be held at the Brooks-Howell home, Ashe ville, a home for retired mission aries and deaconesses. PENSIONS AWAIT 15G0 WIDOWS OF CONFEDERATES Congressman George A. Shuford announces the Veterans adminis tration has requested assistance jj^ trying to locate an estimated l,50h widows of Confederate vet erans believed to be entitled to federal pensions. The request was made by Sum ner G. Whittier, administrator of veterans affairs, who told Con gressman Shuford of VA’s problem in trying to identify the widows, who for the first time are eligible for VA pensions under recently signed Public Law 85-245.

Fire at Craft Company A fire of undetermined origin gutted the interior of a spray booth at the Craft company, furn iture finishing plant, located in the center of Old Fort, last Wednesday afternoon.

Water and smoke damaged 50 pieces of furniture, according to W. C. McKinnon, plant manager.

They were “Our Mr. Sun,” “Hemo the Magnificent,” and “The Strange Case of the Cosmic Rays”. You’ll be interested to know they’ve recently received the Thomas A.

HOW MANY PHONES would you guess there are in Dixie? One million? Three million? Five million? The last figure would have been a good guess 28 months ago. But recently in North Carolina Southern Bell installed the SIX MILLIONTH PHONE! This is significant because every new telephone means expanded service. This means more of us than ever before can make calls or be called ... more of us can enjoy new services ... more of us can take life just a little easier because of telephones—yours and mine and six million others. ♦ * TRYING A NEW RECI PE? “Bring to a boil, stir constantly ...” That’s where you are when the phone rings.
