Phone 686-3205 ....mi.mm..... A Workman With Pride Some folks say that I’m a miKht particular and strive overzealously to achieve per fection. This may he a bad trait, hut I don't think so (if may show a bit of conceit.) We like to see a job done well and admire a workman who takes pride in his chosen profession; whatever it may he! Most of my readers (i'f I have any by now) are aware that we are building a new home. I like to talk about it natuially but don’t mean to sound braggish. However, we like to praise the ones who are building it, especially since they are local men. There are an abundance of excellent builders in our Swan nanoa Valley and to my knowl edge, Penley Construction is • of the very finest. The new house is of brick veneer construction and we •LUSt say en°ugh about Russell Hall and the tremend ous job he did in laying the brick. I’ve heard of bricklay ers but Russell is a bricklay er s bricklayer. Must not for get Herman Hall( able bodied helper who did a real fine job mixing mortar and keeping everything running smooth. As for the electrical wiring, Gibbs Electric of Old Fort, (under the expert supervision of Donnie Gibbs) have done an ^ out-of-this-world job and we’re downright grateful fel lows. Incidentally. Gihhs Eioc. trie is another of the Black Mountain News fine advertis Thanks readers for bearing with us while we hand out plaudits to our builders. I promise not to say another word about them for at least two more issues. WOW Picnic The Swannanoa Camp 970 held its annual picnic at the Woodmen lake on Saturday, July 22. A wonderful meal was prepared and all enjoyed it very much. The Mrs. Woodman Bronze plaque was awarded to Mrs. Annie Louise Riddle for her most loyal and devoted service to the men’s court.
