" Bren tp that request Barker has ^jied thfi touch of geihs. Ra ther than taking to the drawing hoard for hours pouring over hot Jttfle-fiane, he employed an itinerant photographer (who shall remain nameless) to photograph these gadgets. Now, rather than sending blueprints Barker is sim ply sending those who want these gadgets for their offices a set of pictures. Barker figures that they can fol low a set of photographs more easily than they might follow a set of blue prints that he might draw. One of these gadgets is a por table counter. ABC regulations re cently ordered that every office should have a counter for use in waiting on clients. There was no place in the Jones County office to locate a fixed counter, since space is at a premium, so Barker naturally concluded that if there was no place for a fixed counter, and his office had to have a coun ter; the only alternative was a ‘Dogwood’* Blooming Rock Are Running’ -- Veteran Neuse River Fisher man Wyche Sutton for more than 30 years has believed that “when dogwood is in bloom, it’s time for the rock to begin their run”.
