Williams Most of the barbers at Scotia were colored people, and here a barber had a good chance, for he had the section of Scotia and the try around for some miles to draw from. A barber was kept busy most all the time, especially In the after noons and evenings. Most of his work was done on Fridays and Sat- | urdays. A barber would work on Bat. urday all day and far into the night in order to get caught up with his work. David Plerce, Sr, a barber at the mines for quite a number of years, had his shop in the little house back of the store slong the road to Marysville and Red Bank. I am told that Kate Spriggs ran a barber shop In the house In which she lived in the early years of SBeotia. This shop was in the house later oc- | cupled by the John Daugherty fam- lly and later the William } vkens family. We had been without a barber for some Ume when Prank Clemson coun | plot across the road from the store room and was later occupied by Hughie Malone as a residence A hair-cut at this shop at any time during the life of the town was never more than fifteen cents, and a shave sometimes a close one at that, was never more than ten cents You who read this history may wonder how we got our produce and fresh meats. Elmer Clark, a truck farmer who lived on a farm about a mile east of Waddle, would make from two to three trips into Scotia each week and he never had any! trouble In getting rid of his wagon load of produce. There was no lack of variety for he had almost any- thing anyone wanted In green veg- etables | Another huckster was Ceorge Kustenborder who lived across the| Barrens from Beotia.
