By The Way By Doris Azmfield Maybe I’m mistaken, but I believe most people are a little uneasy on their first plane ride, no matter what their age. This didn’t seem to bother Mrs. Della Koon, however, who took in Newberry by the air just after her 75th birthday. Mrs. Koon, who was 75 on the 26th of May, was out at the Newberry Airport Sunday seeing some friends off on a trip, and made the remark that she would like to take an air plane ride. Hubert Mills, standing nearby, said “come on”—so Mrs. Koon had a birds- eye view of Newberry. “I’ve always wanted to ride in an airplane,” said Mrs. Koon. “I remember years ago when I lived in Pomaria (where she was born) that I always want ed to ride in an ox-cart. When I came to Newberry, I said I wanted to ride in an airplane, but I didn’t think I’d ever do it.” I asked Mrs. Koon if it was her first experience, and she said it was. “They thought I’d be shaky, but I wasn’t the least bit. While we were up there, though, I asked, like everybody else, I suppose, ‘well, just why are we stopping?” The plane ride was really an anti-climax for Mrs. Koon’s birthday anniversary celebra tion, for on the night of her birthday, her daughter, Mrs. Ernest Bouknight, gave a sur prise party for her at the home of a neighbor, (Mrs. Leona Franklin. Thirty three friends gathered to pay their respects. Besides being an air enthus iast, Mrs. Koon is as interested in working crossword puzzles as I am, and she loves to read. She also does some sewing in her spare time for some friends. I will be glad to live to see my 75th anniversary if I have the energy and enthusiasm of Mrs. Koon at that age. By way of a plug, one of her favorite pastimes for reading is The Sun and she was kind enough to say she enjoyed this partic ular corner of the Sun. Speaking of this particular column, which has been absent from the Sunpaper for the past few weeks, I would like to ex press my appreciation to all the kind readers who have told me they miss By The Way when it isn’t in each week’s issue. I try to explain that I am out of town so much and even when I am here I’m usually so busy that it • Is hard to sit down and write a column. Johnny Jones, one of my faith ful readers, said “well, when you’re working out of town, you could write at night. You don’t work at night, do you?” Usually, Johnny, I do. We don’t often have hearings that run into the night, although on one labor hearing we went to work at 9:30 a.m. and worked until 9:00 p.m. It gets a little tiring sitting at the Stenograph for almost twelve hours, strain ing to hear every word that is being said by some six or eight peprsons involved in the case, and getting it down. (But even when our hearings don’t run into night sesions, I usually take along my recording ma chine, and dictate the proceed ings of the day so they will be ready for typing. When I don’t do this, it is because the day has been too hard to do any work at night, and when one is that tired, it’s impossible to sit down and write a col umn. No matter how good or how bad a column is, it is still hard to write. Not hard, ex actly, but it isn’t something you just “sit down and do.” I believe the last time I wrote, I was on my way to High Point. As I predicted, while I was there I was pleas ed when I said my name was Armfield, no one asked me how to spell it. And it seem ed strange to see signs in front of stores, etc., with the name Armfield, and there wer e six listed in the telephone direc tory! That’s more than I found listed in New York or Wash ington. Since that trip, I have been to Lynchburg, Virginia (where one Armfield was listed in the phone book). Lynchburg is an unusual city, vaguely reminis cent of Charleston with its old buildings and houses, but the most unusual thing is the way the city is built on hills. You can hardly go from one block to another without going up or down a forty-five degree angle hill. One place in par ticular was so very picturesque. You could stand on Main street and look, it seemed almost di rectly straight up, and about three blocks above you is the courthouse, which is an old structure, white with tremen dous columns in front, like the ones at Gildercrest only about twice as large. There are steps leading from a block above Main Street up to the court house, and I v/as brave enough to tackle them once—it was about like walking up the Cap itol front steps in Washington. I took a liking to the old city, right in the mountains, and was rather disappointed when I had to leave—‘but labor JUST BECAUSE somebody’s Harping all the time doesn’t make him an angel. Neighborhood News Miss Violet Browning and friends from Clinton, are spend ing three weeks vacation in California. Thomas S. Whlson of Wash ington D. C., Trial Examiner for the National Labor Rela tions Board, was a weekend guest in the home of the Arm- fields at Gildercrest.

Buddin and two children, Barbara and Nan of Columbia are spending a cou- hearings don’t last forever and I had work to do at Newberry. And I had no sooner returned to Newberry when I had orders to go to Morganton and Lenoir, North Carolina. I’m afraid I have nothing in particular to report of those two cities, since it rained most of the time I was there and I didn’t get to do any sightseeing. But it was good to get back to Newberry after all the roaming around of the past few weeks, and I’m almost afraid to answer the telephone for fear a voice will say, “report to Kalamazoo for a hearing tomorrow morning.” I’m ready for at least a week at home before starting out again. And besides when I stay away from home so much, I miss out on the rumors. The current rumors of which I am thinking are of the city elec tion this summer when we’ll be voting for mayor, aldermen, etc. There seems to be no def inite indication as to who will be in the running for mayor. A few rumors, but nothing def inite enough to print. pie of weeks in the home of Mrs. Buddin’s mother, Mrs. C. F.
