plan presented it was explained that further planting must be postponed until cooler weather. Mr. Fleming assured them that this would be done according to plan. _________ oOo --------- OUR NEW NEIGHBORS The charming house at 122 Loblolly Drive lost former residents Hope and A1 Baughan, but in came Nan and Dick Schultz, its new o^vners. Both Nan and Dick can hardly be called newcomers to the area since they've been coming to the region for over twenty-five years. Dick was originally from Wisconsin and foimd his way to North Carolina via Florida, earned his PhD at Duke and served for many years as superintendent of schools in Rockingham County. He is an ardent sailor, ovms two sailboats and frequents Oriental. His main sailing interest is in racing. Since he is newly retired, Dick is considering teaching at a college level. Nan is a true native, always calling North Carolina home. She has done both regular and substitute teaching in the elementary grades. The Schultz family includes three children. Two are sons, one working in Burlington and the other just out of college and now in the Navy, stationed in San Diego. Their daughter will be a senior at West Carteret in September. Besides sailing, Nan and Dick enjoy the beach, reading and tennis. Nan has done volunteer work at the hospital. They are, however, having difficulty getting settled be cause company keeps coming to checkout their nev; home. But then, the PKS way of life allows you to take your time. YOLA HANAN Remember the first house on Arborvitae? Not many cf us do, but Arborvitae had only one house in days of old, and now that house belongs to the Malcolm Bones of Raleigh. That's Malcolm Bone, Jr., but, living in the house at least for the summer are Malcolm Bone, Sr. and his wife, Nellie. Nellie insists that she was named after a cow - well, the thing is, she says, her father was always naming horses and cows and dogs and cats Nellie, so somehow it vras suggested he choose that name for his daughter as well. She tells this with a rather large twinkle in her eye. The senior Bones have their own home in Pcanpano^ Beach, Florida, but they've been persuaded to stay here and look after things [like growing some beautiful tomatoes and feeding lots of happy bird?] until, they think, late Fall. Their son, Malcolm, who works for IBM, and his wife, Betty, and their three daughters, come here weekends and find, one feels sure, to their delight, that the house and grounds are huitroing along splendidly, and they are spared having to "open" and "close" the place every time they are here. Another son and wife live in Delaware. Malcolm, the father, is a retired firefighter frcan Philadelphia and also retired much later from a second job with Pan Am. During his years with Pan Am, he and Nellie took some wonderful trips abroad. While their two sons were growing up, Nellie worked at Wanaitvaker's Department Store. She said she was a bit disappointed the store didn't fold when she left! Malcolm has created some elegant pieces of furniture out of a fallen v;alnut tree. [Not a local one - none of those around here!] So - the first house on Arborvitae still looks fresh and well taken care of, thanks to the family efforts of all the Bones. MARY DOLL
