Note attached photograph. "Solid O.R.T." means that every person who works in that office is a member of the Order of Railroad Telegraphers.

Mr. Miller thinks that is me shown in the photograph. It is not. I was off the day the photographer came and snapped this photo. The man in the chair may be Mr. Tommy Duncan, from Austinville.

Be that as it may, When did the N&W begin issueing those lovely calendars we all remember from the Old Days ?
