GLADE AND HAMLET, Villages Of Yesteryear In The New River Gorge; Part 5. The primary transportation in and out of Glads and Hamlet was local pammnger trains of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company. Supr. iingly there was never a church building or church organization at either Glade or Hamlet. For a period of time Charlie Thompson, a Church of Christ Minister, would come to Glade on the local train and hold mrviees in the Glade school house. After he quit coming in, G.W. Terry, another Church of Christ Minister held services followed by Frank Monroe of the Baptist faith. Like Hamlet, the village of Glads, Fayette County, was no small com- munity. All community activities centered around the school house. Some of the Glade school teachers were: Iva Cox; Norma Hicks; Pauline Payne; Zella McGuire; Mary and Norms Twohig; David Scott; Messrs. Flnhman, Hugart and Nagle; Ira McClellan and the last, Vernie BnnetL Mrs. Grace Brandt did some sul:mtitute teaching. David Scott taught for three school terms and resigned for employment with the C&O as telegraph operator on the Clifton Forge Division. Afar the sawmill shut down op- eration, the post office at Hamlet, Raleigh County, closed and a post office established at Glade, Fayette County, the same day, Sept. 1, 1936, Mrs. Grace Brandt appointed Post- master. There were twenty or twenty-five families living at Glade, some above and some below the C&O Railway tracks. Besides the Emmett D. Brandt, Mrs. Brandt remembers three different families of Adkins living there. Also Dorsey and Beulah Bennett; Jake Smith; the Durretts; Iraand Ethel Ward;Arrow and Dolly Ward; Merdy Plumley; Washie Plumley; Amos and Nelly Plumley; Dink Ward; Charley Iddings; Roy Iddings; Clarence Holesapple; Dewey Redden; Jessie Redden; Oat Jones; Warren and Estaline Redden who ran a small combination con- venient store. C&O employees on trains stopping there would frequent the store for small purchases such as candy, pop and tobacco. The sawmill company at Hamlet hod two shay railroad locomotives and ran two trains a day. The engi- neers for the trains were Charley Ray, Virgil Carver and Charley Galispie. The Millwright for the sawmill was Howard Hall, the col- ored man. Louie Delarenzo, an Ital- ian, was the company machinist. Both were highly skilled at their trade and could make parts for the mill as they needed replaced. Mr. Delarenzo's full name was Louie Pulley Marro Dino Delarenzo. His family consisted of three sons and three daughters. The boys names were: Pulley Louie; Jimmie Louie and Petsy Louie. The girls names were: Anne Marro; Linda Marro and Evelyn Marro. The family was very strict in following Italian tradition, i.e., serve wine with their meals and always served a wine drink to their welcome guests when they called on the family for a short visit. If the guests were not welcome or didn't deserve their respect, there would be no wine offered. There is a small cemetery at Hamlet where Cleve Pl u mley, a man named Ruder, Sam Kincaid and Aubrey Redden's baby are buried. There is also one at Glade where the Martins are buried. After the mill at Hamlet closed, it was necessary for families to move out for employment at other loca- tions but a few continued to live there and at Glade. Mrs. Brandt remembers the flood of August 1940 when some families living on the lower side of the railroad tracks at Glade had to move into houses on •. - :iiiiiii:ii ' :::::::::::::::::::::::: ,-: , -':  y.:.:-::,: 8oeiM Studies Fair Winners the upper side to avoid damage by high water. The writer, when working at Thurmond and commuting on the local passenger trains from Hinton early 1940's remembers school chil- dren getting on the train at Glade enroute Montgomery High School. Some we remember were Evelyn Bennett and the Brandta, Rosemary, Lewis and Betty. When the Bobcock Coal and Tim- ber Company went out of business they took up meet of the steel of the railroad line but some few pieces were left in the woods. Grace Bran dt remembers observing a few pieces of steel and some ties as she and her husband, Emmett, hiked up Glade Creek hunting for snakes. Early in 1941 or 1942 the girders were removed from the bridge by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company. There was no super struc- ture, i .e., overhead structure. It was just a flat girder bridge. One set of. girders was used for the C&O bridge over Laurel Creek extending the eastward passing siding at Quinni- mont, W.Va., a big'improvement in filling out coal trains to full tonnage. Another set was used on the bridge over the Guyandotte River in Logan County, W.Va., and the rest were used in construction of the Levisa River Subdivision in Ky. When the last family moved away the exodus was complete and the only sound remaining were wild animals and the Chesapeake and Ohio Rail way trains as they rumble through. In time, nature reclaimed most of the evj' dence of habitation by man in the two communities. The huge bridge piers remain in New River, in mute silence, reminding the observer that in the far past there was a better day. The End.

Prescription Drug Studies: Four Phases There are four steps or phases of testing that all prescription drugs must undergo before they are ap- proved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for general use by physicians and other prescribers. Before phase one the drug must be tested in animals. This process determines whether or not the drug is safe and effective in test animals. It may take as much as two to three years to determine drug safety in nonhu- man subjects. Phase one is the first testing of the drug in humans. During this phase, researchers look at how the drag is absortied,.stored, distrib - uted, and eliminated. Side effects are checked foraiatlais phase. Phase two tests for the effecl2veness and the safety of the drug in humans. Phases one and two are conducted on groups of up to 300 individuals and may take up to three or four years to complete. During phase three, the drug is evaluated in as many as 3,000 sub- jects. This is the last phase re- quired by the FDA. If the drug is approved, it may be promoted and prescribed. Phase four studies oc- cur after the FDA has approved the drug for routine use. According to a recent study at Tufts University, it takes, on average, 12 years and $231 million to conduct the first three phases of study leading to ap- proval by the FDA.
