oyertures TO its employees since very

work of repairing the mill has been
greatly delayed by the inability OF the
company TO secure the necessary
skilled men to make the repairs. In
other mills the engineers remained at
their posts and assisted with the re-
pairs. This company was compelled
to send to other points for men to do
their overseeing. The men remain or

creek road that was badly washed out
In the recent heavy rain. 1t is thought
that the road will have to be changed
In several places. This is the second
Time in a few years that this road has
had to be rebuilt. The Brooks Run
pike is also in a very bad shape from
the same cause. The rurai mail car
riers have had some difficulty in get
ting over their routes. Nothing has
ever been done relative to a new
bridge at Neff's yet and one of the con-
ditions on which these routes were es-
tablished was that the roads were to
be kept up. The fording mentioned is
a dangerous one during the winter
season and is impossible at times.
