“jES’ HOL’ IT NATCHEL, SONNY!”
"DISCOVERING"
UNCLE NATCHEL
One day back in 1934, an artist, driving leisurely along a
country road in the deep South, heard the sound of banjo
music floating toward him through the trees. He left his
car and followed the sad-sweet strains until he found a
clearing in the forest where, on a little cabin porch, sat
an old darky, a red-headed boy of twelve, and a dog—in
the middle of a music lesson! All unseen, the artist set up
his easel and soon, upon the canvas, appeared the boy, all
thumbs, his face screwed up in earnest effort, manfully
struggling with the stringed instrument; the dog looking
on in painful apprehension; the old man patiently urging:
“Jes’ hoi’ it natchel, Sonny—thataway, natchel!” >
This beautiful painting by Hy Hintermeistev was fea
tured on the 1935 Uncle Natchel calendar, and introduced
to a million people the familiar figure of “Uncle Natchel”,
the kindly old man who has appeared ever since as the
symbol of Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda.
Uncle Natchel is really a rare and lovable character.'
Grown old in the employ of Sonny’s family, he is known
to everyone for miles around for his inexhaustible supply
of stories about the wonders of Nature and his belief that
the best way to do anything is the “Natchel” way. And that,
of course, is how lie got his name.
