up to see how his brother, Er

porch. These three have joined
forces for the past two years to
build two new homes and make
an addition to a third. All three
performed their regular jobs at
Adams --Millis while building.
All three have been employed at
Adams-Millis for 11 years.

In Kernersville, near the Adams-
Millis plant, is the intersection of Adams
and Millis streets. Just off the corner
of Adams Millis intersection are several
homes of Adams-Millis employees, who,
during the past several years have work
ed together and with their own labor have
built their homes. Charles (Buck) Har
den, Robert Shore and Ernest Harden
are among the neighbors who have join
ed forces and with exchange of labor dur
ing their spare time have built homes.
When Buck started his house on
Adams Street in 1941, his brother Ernest
and Robert Shore helped him. Then last
year when Robert built his house on
Millis Street, Buck and Ernest helped
Robert.
Last March it wasErnest's time to
build; again, all three went to work to
gether whenever either of them had time
available and now Robert is in his new
home on Smith Street.
Now, it's Buck's turn again. Buck
found his house was too small and de
cided to add two rooms and a porch.
The three started working whenever they
had a day off, Saturdays, and in the af
ternoons after they got off work. Buck's
house is complete inside with the excep
tion of finishing the floors. And soon
the porch will be completed. Then may
be the boys can rest for a while, that is
until another room has to be added.
