There were rooms for clubs, conferences and the like. There were also game rooms, read ing Toopns and also places where re- freshrodnts could be served. Fre quently as many as 200 persons are served at one time in the banquet hall. The latter can also be used for a dance hall if it is so desired. Just one little item carries out the thought of how well Mr. Mooriiead and associates have looked after the welfare of all at Goldville. The chairs, lounges and other furnishings arc done in solid leather. Only the best was believed to be good enou^ for Goldville folks, and the spirit of the place is in keeping with that slogan. Miss Blanche Durgin, director of activities, welcomed us to the build ing and showed'ur through the place. The hmne economics romn — which is just another way of saying the kitchen—represents the last word in cleanliness plus efficiency. The ease with which banquets are served speaks well for the efficiency of Miss Durgin and for her assistants. Goldville also has *'a handsome swimming pool, a baseball field that will compare favorably with any in the state, and also many well paved streets. J^ptists and Methodists have new edifices, constructed last sum mer, and Goldville folks modestly boast of their church-going reeprd. The place fairly carries out the per sonality of Mr. Moorhead, who is de sirous of having all who work at Goldville enjoy life in the fullest. No effort has been spared in bringing happiness to all concerned, and if pleasant working conditions, plus ex cellent recreational facilities, make HUGHES SUPPLIES 7TH VACANCY FDR REQUIRED TO FILL Wdshington, June 2. — Retirement .// Wore Shoals Man Says "He is Ready 11 I I— ft.

GOLDVILLE: ONE OF THE SOUTH’S "most PROGRESSIVE COMMUNITIES By Charles H. Garrison, In The GreenvUle Piedmont. Never judge a place merely by what you can see from the highway or the railroad. To do so would mean that you form a false impression of many communities where hospitality abounds. Goldville, for instance, is a place which deceives one if you are judging merely by the view from the hiidiway. You have to linger, to shake hands with sraie of the.local residents and see what is going on to get a proper view of the place. It was my good fortune to stop at Goldville for a short time yesterday afiernoon. Thanks to an invitation from Wm. A. Mooriicad, who is in charge of the plant, I was privileged lo see over tte village. Mr. Moor head, I might s^ by way of paren thesis is a native of Union county and has been at Goldville for 34 years. Having come up through the ranks he is and has been in sym pathy with everything that concerns the nea^ 2,000 rc^dents of the place. # The mill and grounds present an attractive appearance from the high way, but even Jkra the casual trav eler does not8lt an adequate pic ture of Goldville. We went to the community^ building, for instance.
