one with the White Oak Mills at his old
home at Greensboro, y. T.. This is a
new mill, one of the most modern in the
South, carrying 2,200 looms, and it's prin-
cipal product is blue denims. We regret
to lose MIR. Pennington and his family

Walhalla Mills two and a half years, and
during that time has made hosts of
friends, who wish for him and his every
success and prosperity on their return to
