Influenza Has Passed, Shulls Mills Looking for New Workers; Household Sale in Boone, 1919

Notices from the Watauga Democrat in Boone, N.C., January 2, 1919

NOTICE

The Influenza at Shulls Mills is now over, but evidently all of the old employees of the Boone Fork Lumber Company do not know it. We hope each and every one of them will return to work immediately and get their own places.

We are paying top prices for all parts of the operation.

We would also be glad to have all the new men we can get. We are not only paying high wages, but we have just made a new rule, by which a man can get his money any time he wants to go home. Therefore, if you can come for a week or two weeks or a month, come ahead and when you want to go home you can get your money.

                                BOONE FORK LUMBER CO.
