He has made picnic tables of all sizes, lawn chairs of all sizes, carvings of loons and owls, built a fireplace from an old organ, made knicknacks of all sizes, shapes and uses, made trellises and picket fences and planters, tables of every description, toy barns, picture- frames - you name it and if be hasn't already made it, he probably can. Mr. ,Pfile was in the 'shoe business in Dashwood for 52 years before he suffered a heart NOW is the time to buy NEW FURNITURE We're continuing our fantastic inventory ) reduction sale Whiting's Warehouse attack in 1971. It was 1922 when he bought the shoe business, but the depression was rough so his wife tended the store and he made money doing odd jobs. "I once put on 52 rolls of wall- paper in one day," and after you listen to him for awhile you can believe it, It seems he has always had something on the go. Mr, Pfile received 251 an hour to hang paper in those years and he laughs now thinking of the money he could collect for hang- ing paper now. He still mended shoes in the store as well as tackling almost anything anyone asked him to fix. "People used to bring me the darndest things and say go ahead, you can fix it," laughs Mr. Pfile and adds "and I always did too." Mr. Nile sold his shoe business in 1972, the heart attack having made the work too much for him. However, that hasn't kept him from being active, not by any means. Mr. Nile has made over 100 toy size barns alone, and the rest of his varied successes with wood have to be seen to be believed. He has made almost everything you can think of. He has done some custom work in the past, but doesn't do too much anymore. "I like people to see what I've done, but I can't keep up with the demand anymore. I can't work like I used to, a half day is enough." • Mr, Pfile does not charge highly for what he sells, he's not doing it for the money. Besides he doesn't have to buy much of the lumber he uses. "It's amazing the good wood that people send to the dump and leave to be burnt. I just go in and pick it up." Last year he started carving, and his specialty is turning out to be loons stretching their Fifty-four Grade 2-3 students of the Exeter Public School visited the Home on Friday afterebori and presented a musical program.

They are finished so smoothly they are like satin to touch, beautiful but somehow melancholy objects. These he gives away, he does not sell, He's still not completely out of the shoe business. When he sold his business he took sonic of the leather with him and to this day can work wonders on a pair of shoes. However he doesn't intend to buy more leather.
