Weyerhaeuser has given awaY three 8xl2-foot by 7r/2-Ioot high playhouses, two in California and one in Arizona. Each house was on display at various retail building materials firms and customers were encouraged to complete an entry blank for the drawing.

The Lamon Lumber Co., San Francisco, has established an eastern sales dept., manned by C. C. o'Sti" Stibich, which will concentrate on dry Douglas fir, pine and white fir, including commons, shop, selects and moulding. The move is a departure from Lamon's long-established policy of selling exclusively in the northern California market.

Other sales slots include the Madera Sugar Pine Co., a period with the Palmer operation in Durango, Mexico (complete with revolutionaries), Pickering Lumber Co., Tahoe Sugar Pine Co., and as asst. sales manager of Tarter, Webster & Johrxon.
