CARVERTON
Tuffy and I went over to Naomi
~ Lewis's house the other morning
for a basket of news. She tells me
that the old heavy wooded area be-
tween Harold and Don Lewis's
place is being cut off, and bull-
dozers are levelling it off. Wonder
if that is to be turned into a build-
ing development. Time will tell . .
Elma Lewis entertained a group of
women recently at her Stanley
Party . . . Arthur Owen, a neigh-
bor across the road, from Lewis's
has been laid up with a bad back.
~ He may have to go to ‘the hospital
for treatment.
[Speaking of bad backs, David
‘Werts is home from the hospital
but has to be caretul awhile longer.
He goes back to the hospital for
electric massage and hot pack
treatment and hopes soon to be all
well. The spinal column with its
string of bones and nerves and
cartilage disks can be the seat of
lots of trouble.
Everybody in Carverton is full of
sympathy for the David Voitek
family which was burned out last
week, They were fortunate in
getting the children out. We hope
{ the house will in time be made
| liveable again. Meanwhile, we
: understand they are being cared
for in the homes of relatives.
Pairs and Spares Class met
November 7 at Naomi and Donald
Lewis's. *
Present were: Gloria and George
Parrish, Lois Perry, Doris and Clark
Lewis, Dorothy Ann and Don Sear-
~ foss, Mary Ann and Roy Meeker,
Lillian Werts, Phyllis and Willard
Piatt, Fay Perry, and Hildegarde
Wolfe.
: It was kind of Naomi Lewis to
~ get this news for me. In fact I will
appreciate hearing from readers
\ who call me up with news or just
for a friendly visit.
A SMITH COINCIDENCE
i - Soon after we came back down.
to this section from New York
| state I was driving along the road
~~ I've just mentioned, and in passing
the old Mountain School (and by
the way, a way-back former teach-
er there by name of Anna Malloy
I see at Valley Crest often) I saw
the name of Willard Smith on the
mai] box. It was some time before
’ I found out that it was a different
| Willard Smith from the one over
on Hicks River Road in Mt. Zion.
But the coincidence is in the fact
that both Willard Smiths have a
brother Paul, and both men’s fa-
5 thers were named Ben!
~ But the wife of the Willard
Smith opposite the old Mountain
School is Martha. She has been a
school teacher for several years and
topes to get, back ‘to it again some-
time. Meanwhile she is taking
treatments for a severe neck injury
suffered about three years ago
when one of her senior students
went berserk and struck her on top
3 of her head while she was standing
| erect with her feet flat on the
~~ floor.
' ~ She tells me that she has a 20-
‘year old son in the air force in
Germany.
5 VALLEY CREST LOSS
A week ago last Saturday Dr.
R eph Shedlawski of Forty Fort
suddenly died of a heart attack.
This news came as a terrible blow
to the staff and guests at Valley
Crest. His ruddy, smiling face was
full of kindness. He and I were
day that I held the first religious
- Service that was held at the Home.
k "In the course of time he was
asking me where I lived. When I
‘tried to tell him he asked if it was
anywhere near Asa Casterlin’s. One
‘day Dr. Shedlawski told me,. “I
found out where your hide-out is!’
~~ He loved the country, and often
used to come with his family and
enjoy a back-yard cook-out with
‘the Casterlins. Mr. Casterlin is an
‘electronics teacher in Meyers High
School in Wilkes-Barre.
+ Everyone is especially interested
‘to know how the Shedlawski girl
is standing her father’s death, for
the girl has had two surgical opera-
‘tions on her heart. Mrs. Calkins,
Mrs. Casterlin’s. mother, reports
‘that the girl has stood up well and
attended her father’s funeral. Also
| she told me about the little boy
~ who is about 10. Mrs. 'Shedlawski's
brother died recently and after Dr.
| Shedlawski’s death the little fellow
said, “Won’t that be a surprise
“when my uncle meets my Daddy so
.ssoon!” Children ‘think of nice
things like that and are a comfort
“to others in sorrow.
I had a brief visit with Mrs. Jack
- Scoble. Jack is still in the hospital,
fo thas some good days, some not so
. good. It hurts us who knew him
for years back to see him not his
‘radiant self. Let us all keep fresh
in our memories that this Jack
“made many and many a contribu-
‘tion to the encouragemet of count-
Pi less people. He cheered us up when |
‘we had our blue days.
| Among others T met at Carverton
was Dorothy Ann Edwards Sear-
foss. Tall and slim as a young
maple tree, I always remember
“that when she was a little girl and
then, as now, lived near the par-
~ sonage she knew I liked duck eggs.
b ~ Dorothy Ann used to bring me
some. I reminded her of that last
Sunday and she said, “Well, maybe
drawn together from the very first |
Mt. Zion
you'll be getting some again some-
time. My little boy (I guess he
is'nt five yet) wants some ducks.”

WOOLBERTS’
QUARTER-CENTURY
We cbuldn’t go, for we had a
previous commitment. But we did
have a mice chat over the phone
with ‘Alma and Ad Sunday after-
noon. I told them the picture in
The Dailas Post was extra-special
good. Emma Miles told me that all
the Parrishes were there, and that
means quite a lot of people. And
there were many Woolbert cousins
from over Trucksville and Dallas
way. )
Friends began coming at one
o'clock and were still coming when
Emma came away late in the after-
noon. Ad and Alma’s daughter
Alyce was home in Nicholson for
the week-end from her work in the
bank at Summit, N. J.
It is to be hoped that this fine
couple will be able to have many
more happy years together, and
that the serious sicknesses and
surgery they have weathered to-
gether in recent years will now be
wholly a thing of, the past.

Shavertown
To Sell Christmas Trees
Boy Scout Troop 231, under su-
pervision of Malcohm Kitchen,
scoutmaster, will have just the tree
for you at Christmas. They will
sell all sizes in the large lot along-
side the Jacobs home on Pioneer
Avenue, Ed Hall has ,donated the
use of his land for the project..
Trees are grown locally and will
be fresh for the holiday.
Your purchase of a tree will
help the boys raise funds for need-
ed equipment.
In Parade

truck, Walter Davis and William
Frederick the ambulance, and Harry
Smith drove the car pulling the
float with Jack Lasher, Chief Ar-
nold Yeust, William Frederick and
John Kritchen accompanying him.
At Last — Help
It was good to mote a traffic of-
ficer on duty at the Center Street
intersection on the weekend. Gives
one a feeling of greater safety in
crossing against the oncoming mo-
torists.
Signal Needed
I was glad to hear Ed Hartman
mention that he had missed the
turnoff at Pioneer Avenue in
Trucksville twice at night, because
we have felt chagrined when the
same thing happened to us. Hope
some sort of signal is placed there
soon.
Their many patrons are hoping
that. a better access road will be
built for Hall's Pharmacy before
many weeks, The new pavement
‘laid by the highway construction
crew is considerably lower than
the small parking area remaining.
Lehigh Street where newly paved
is certainly a great improvement.
Now residents in the other sector
are hopeful that a continuation of
the pave will be in the offing come
next summer.
Forgotten Lane
A forgotten little area is School
Street. One of the original streets
of the community, it is still much
as it was then, with residents bump-
ing over its cobbles and ice running
thickly across the roadway in win-
ter, a hazard to both motorists and
pedestrian. :
Commendation
Speaking of streets, the terrific
job. done by road supervisor Law-
ton Culver is to be commended. All
proposed improvements have been
carried out before the frost with
no extra crews and the regular
men working twelve and fourteen
hour shifts to complete. their jobs.
