$/hen Curtis first introduced Prerpine-the new all-wood panel material-it was hailed as a new forward step in woodwork manufacture. Today' Curtis adds another maior advantage to this outstanding product.

By an exclusive Curtis process, the beautiful natural grain of ponderosa pine is accurately reproduced on Prespine-to double ihe b".uty of Prespine panels when natural finishes are preferred.

Now, more than ever, Prespine widens your profit rangegives you another exclusive advantage to sell-creates powerful

iustomer appeal. Remember, too, that no one but Curtis can ofrer Prespine panels in doors and other woodwork. That's how Curtis research constantly gives dealers the edge on competition!

"The color of the ground was in him; the red earth, the smack and tang of elemental things, sprung from the West.

truth"'

-Edwin

Markham on Lincoln.

"As a nation of free -; ;. or die by suicide."-Lincoln.

i.,st ti.re through all time,

***

Lincoln is immortal chiefy because, having been clothed with almost absolute power, he never abused it except on the side of mercy. 't** It was said of Lincoln: "Blessed is that man, and beloved o,f all the gods, who is afraid of no man, and of whom no man is afraid."

Lincotn said of w"rr,i'ioi, llr, ,ol.r'n awe pronounce his name, and in its naked deathless splendor, leave it shining on." ,iri*

The brightest star in the firmament of human virtues is kindliness. In this, Lincoln surpassed all other men. Thus he is immortal. In him there was no ego, no vanity. once he was makin* i*p"ra"n, political speech. "*.r.1, It was in his first race for Congress, and he was talking strongly. He was interrupted by a voice from the audience, calling, "Howdy Abe."

rt was like interrupti"J;"* in the midst of an aria.

Yet Lincoln stopped, and looked into the audience for the caller, and saw an old man, a backwoodsman he had known

long before.

***

No humbler person could have been found. But Lincoln smiled at the old man, and answered, "FIow are you, Uncle Jimmy?" Then he continued his speech, only to be interrupted again a minute or so later by the same man.

The old man said, "Ab:, i rJro, to ask you; how are Mary and the babies?" Again Lincoln stopped his oration, and without the slightest show of annoyance.

He replied in kindly ,Jrntlr,,**nile smiling at the old

man, "All well when I left them in Springfield yesterday, Uncle Jimmy; all very well, thank you, my friend." Then he went ahead and finishcd hia speech.

***

Was tfierc ever an incidcnt that more clcarly illustrated the immeasurable benevolence of Lincoln, than that one.

Compare that with the character of gome of our leaders of recent years, and gee how great Lincoln really was.

Great in the ways of true greatness. **rt

Couldn't pass this time of Lincoln's birthday, without telling that story of the great man. How many characters do you recall in all the history of mankind, who could be safely compared with Lincoln? t,ft

Wise men never claim to be wise. They claim only to be seekers after wisdom. 'f**

Virgil said, "Happy the man who has learned the causes of things, and has put from under his feet all fears, and the noisy strife of the hell of greed."

Seneca said, "rf ,,rr", yJ., ,l"rrl ,."-, insufrcient to you, then, though you possess the world, you will yet be

miserable."

*** Will Durant said, "Woe to him who teaches men faster

than they can learn."

Socrates said to Cri,o,

'LJnJ rnina whether the teach-

ers of philosophy are good or bad, but think only of philo-

sophy herself."

Emerson said, "In .*,.rj*ln itr.r" i. something wherein I may learn of him, and in that I am his pupil."

Socrates said, "The hiJ..lnlo*t.ag. is the knowledge of good and evil; the knowledge of the wisdom of life."

Francis Bacon "J".tl yJ nr"a the good things of the mind, and the""ia, rest will either be supplied, or its loss will not be felt."

* ,<

>k

Cicero said, "There is nothing so absurd that it may not be found in the books of the philosophers."

*** But Thoreau insists that "a philosopher is one who loves wisdom and so loves a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity, and trust."

We've printed this in these columns before, but the philosophy of Lincoln seems particularly appropriate during his birthday season: "You cannot bring about prosperity by,discouraging thrift; you cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong; you cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer; you cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred; you cannot help the poor by destroying the rich; you cannot establish sound security on borrowed money; you cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn; you cannot build character and courage by taking away man's initiative and independence; you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."

To do this required full employment of every possible automaric and mechanical device thar would reduce man-handling of

Should a battle be made to save such babies, or should they

The Association offices are in Chicago. l\{cmbers of the association present at the meeting indicatctl their belief that by the end of February the veneer supply sitrration will have eased somewhat but supply may not be normal before late spring. At present, veneer inverrtrrries are only about 5O/o of those of last July. Inventories at that time, however, rvere considered above normal for the industry.

Low inventories of Mahogany veneer are the result of urrseasonable rains the last half of 1949 on the West Coast of Africa and rnore recently the result of a strike on the Gold Coast, that is hoped rvill be of short duration.

Mahogany lumber both of Central American and Afric:rn origin, but especially African, is also in short supply.

With a continuation of the present strong demand it does not appear th:rt there will be matcrial inrprovement for some nronths t(r come.

Mcmbers of the association expressed concern over the tunreasonably high ocean freight rates that are being chargc<l American importers. These rates are higher than those charged for a similar ocean distance to European ports.

The Upson Company and Western Hardwood Lumber Comptny

Join Handg in the Merchandising of Upson Laminated Panels

Plcnt snd officcr ol Thc Upron Compcay, Loclrport, N. Y.

Separatcd though they are by the span of a cohtinent, the Western Hardwood I-umber Company of l-os Angeles, and The Upson Company of I.ockptlrt, N. Y., are charac-

terized by many striking points of similarity.

Iloth firms had modest beginnings in the first decade of the present century and both have prospered and grown through the past half-century ttnder the same managements that established thent so many years ago.

Today, the interests of the two firms are closely associated. From the plant of The Upson Company, large producers of larninated wood fibre wall and ceiling panels, in Lockport, N. Y., nritny thtlttsau<ls of fect of these panels are constantly en rottte to thc large lvarehouses of the Western Hardlvood Lumber Cornpany in I-os Angeles, from rvhicl-r they are distribute<l to hundreds of Upson dealers throughout the western Unitcd States.

It was the genius of the late D. J. Cahill that created the organization that is, today, the Western Hardwood I-umber Company, one of the largest rvholesale lumber operations in the country.

In 1906, Mr. Cahill arrived in I-os Angeles from Denver, Colorado, where he had been engaged in the wholesale hardwood lumber business. He bought an interest in a small, struggling lumber yard in Los Angeles and proceeded to build it up. Eventually, he acquired ownership of the business rvhich today is knowrr as the Western Hardrvood Lumber ComPany.

It was four years later, in 1910, that tu'o brothers, Charles A. Upson and W. Harrison Upson, Jr.-thousands of miles away on the Niagara Frontier in Western Nelv York State about the organization, also in a modest way, of The -set Upson Company.

Both brothers had been associated with a large technical paper company in Western New York following their graduation from Wharton School of Finance and Commerce at the University of Pennsylvania.

After turning a previous deficit into a profit and achieving a notable success in that company, they conceived the idea of establishing a plant for the manufacture of more

<lepenclable rvallboard than rvas being made at that time.

Their first plant was in three or four scattered buildings where a woolen mill had once been located, and with only 16,000 square feet of floor space. Completely new wall-

board-making equipment was installed, much of which had been designed especially for the manufacture of Upson IJoard. For months after the company was incorporated, no attempt rvas made to market the product until it had been perfected.

Preaideat

Across the nation, in Los Angeles, Mr. Cahill had been making a search of the world for commercial hardwoods to supply the varied and gror,ving demands in Southern California. The best hardwoods were brougl-rt from the Orient and other parts of the world and these logs and timbers rvere sawed up at a hardwood sawmill operated

by Western Hardu'ood Lumber Company at Los Angeles Harbor. To them was added a supply of all the useful American woods.

Gradually, a large wholesale lumber yard developed. A complete planing mill was established, together with a battery of six dry kilns, a veneer mill, a green bending oak

Complctcr Erpanrion Program 'fhe Jones Hardwood and Plywood Company of San

Francisco, recently completed new offices and other improvements at the company headquarters, the foot of Tunnel Avenue, in the Bay City.

"The additional imllrovements were nrade nccessary by the dcnrands of our growing business to lletter serve our dealers and nranufacturers," said Nelson Ii. Jones, president of the company.

Among the nrany features of the new office is the atn.rosphere created through the use of har<lwood paneling. The entire office lends itself to nraking the on-the-scene customers comfortable as well as aware of the efficiency of the organization and the beauties of imported ancl domestic hardwoods.

New sheds, incorporating many modern improvements, have been added during this expansion program. Modern equipment has been introduced to speed plant operations.

The Jones Hardwood and l'lywood Company, established 28 years ago, handles a complete line of selected imported and domestic woods, available in any <;uantity or grade of spccies.

"We face the future with a great deal of optimism," said Mr. Jones, and "wc look forward to further progress in the Sarr lirancisco Bay area."

The California l,umber Merchant, 5Ol3-9- l0 Central lluilding, lOtl West Sixth St., l,os Angeles, C--al. (ientlenren: Attcntion of Jack l)ionne On l)ec. 20th, 1949, I wrote you a tctter rvith refcrence to your article, I)cc. l5th issue, in section hcaded, "Vagallond liditorials." 'fhis article was so g<lttd that after I read it a coul>le of tinres, I orderecl one httn<lred copies of it. These rvcre received ancl I took the tr<lullle to mail'them out, allout five cach, to varitltts civic organizations, fraternal orders, .1n1s Cihamber of Cotnmerce, Stockton Chamber of Conrnrerce an<l klcal banks. I received s()me very g<lo<l comtrrents, especially from the State Chamber of Commerce herc in Stockton. They want additi<lnal copies. Horvever, I have none' llut wonder if it is still llossible to get sotlte nlore. I)<>n't forget this article has done a lot rtf good. Ilave other lumbcrmcn taken the trouble as I have done to order somc of thern? If not, they should have.

If you rvill refer, again, to my letter, you will note somewhere in there that I said that if we could unite cnough organizations under one head and work toward the welfare of this country, maybe, we might get rid of some of our un-Atnerican officials, Reds, and subversive elements norv working here to over-throw tl-ris Government of ours.

Whether or not rny thinking is in line, I picked up the San Francisco E,xaminer four or five days ago and noticed that an All American Team is advocated by our National Comrrrander, Geo. N. Craig. Wonderful !

The words spoken would be the exact thoughts I have.

So, thank God, that this thought is implanted in some of the minds of those that have to do with shaping the thoughts of members of clubs, fraternal orders, etc.

Then there are those like myself who could do a lot of the same kind of work if those at the head of industries would take time out to do so. If not, we are certainly going down the road to ruin and corruption.

There is no telling how far this Administration is going to take us, unless we as a whole do something about it.

It might be rvell, if your good paper would direct the thoughts of tl.rose who are subscribers, to this kind of work. It rvill not hurt to try. The more of this that is done right nor', the quicker we will awaken the thoughts of those r,r'ho are more or less thinking, "Let the other fello'iv do it," "Why should I bother about politics ?" And this is about what the average business man thinks.

It is a job for all of us. I want to thank you again for those timely editorials.

Yours truly,

Plcstic Treqted Hard Board A plastic treatment adapted to the manufacture of hard b,rard nrakes possible a new weather resistant hard board suital>le for exterior l>uilding, it is announced by Harold A. Miller, president of Forest Fiber l'roducts Company, F'orest Grove, Oregon.

This nerv plastic treated hard board called "treated" Forest Board utilizes selected Douglas fir fibers in the salne c()ntrolled process as the standard grade Forest floard.

During the manufacturing process the plastic treatment is given to each fiber and after the board is formed an additional surface treatment is given.

The plastic treatment besides furnishing water resistance provides greater structural strength, wear resistance, and an added advantage is its resistance to soap or alkali, I\tiller stated. The new hard board resists chipping, denting and breaking, and like standard hard board is grainless so that it rn'ill not splinter. In the manufacturing process a harcl, glassy, smooth surface is produced that takes any type of finish by spraying, baking or brushing. It nails, glues, planes and rvorks as wood itself.

The plant is in full production in tl-re "treated" hard lroard in sizes of 4'x l', to 4'x 16'and thicknesses oI /8",

ttru" and )4". The advantages of the plastic "treated" Forest Board, its water resistance, greater structural strength and rvorkability and variety of sizes make it suitable for numerous uses from shower walls to siding, Miller stated.

Samples of the new "treated" board and further information may be obtained from Stimson Lumber Company, Forest Grove, Oregon, the national distributors for Forest Hard Board.

Cfay Brown & Company Starts New Mill

at Fortun€r Calif.

Aeriql view ol the new plcnt.

The latest sawmill operation of importance to start cut- ' at this plant. There is a big and modern refuse burner adjating lumber in California, is the Swedish gang sawmill cent to the sawmill proper.

The mill cuts Fir timber, and the entire product will be just completed by Clay Brown & Company, at Fortuna, marketed through the Los Angeles office of Clay Brown & Humboldt County, California. The mill made its first run Company, located at 5670 Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles late in January, operating on an eight hour shift. It is phone 36, WEbster 34405. expected that within a few months a second shift will be added. The single shift output of the new mill is about 75,000 feet daily, and the plant employs about fifty men all told.

The new plant is located on a forty-acre site just a mile and one half south of the center of the town of Fortuna.

Work started last August on the clearing of the site, so no time has been lost in getting this excellent mill built and in operation. Actual construction of the plant was in the hands of Industrial Engineers & Contractors Inc., of Tacoma, Washington, and most of the machinery and equipment came from the Mill Engineering & Supply Cornpany, of Seattle, which latter ,concern has pioneered the Swedish type gangsaw mill throughout the United States.

Other suppliers of machinery and equipment for the mill were the Brizard-Matthews Machinery Company, and the Eureka Boiler Works, both of Eureka, California.

The plant consists of an l8-acre log pond with special ramp for unloading logs, the sawmill proper equipped with a big Swedish gang and a regulation edger and trimmer, a modernly equipped planing mill capable of handling the entire double shift output of the sawmill, and a temporary storage yard for lumber awaiting shipment. The Swedish gang can handle logs up to 33 inches in thickness. The logs come into the mill on a regulation log deck, and on leaving the mill the lumber goes through the planing mill, and is then shipped green to market. No seasoning will be done

Trees And Knees I think that I will never see, A joint as lovely as a knee;

Poems have lines so pure and simple,

Speed you CuEtomer: "Are sure this milk is fresh?"

Milkman: "Lady, half an hour ago, that was grass."

Mcke This A Dcy Make this a day. There is no gain In brooding over days to come; The message of today is plain, The future lips are ever dumb.

The work of yesterday is goneFor good or ill, let come what may; But now we face another dawnMake this a day !

Though yesterday we failed to see The urging hand and earnest face That men call Opportunity; We failed to know the time or place For some great deed, what need to fret ?

The dawn comes up a silver grey And golden moments must be metMake this a day !

But lovely knees can have a dimple.

A Motorist's Prcyer

"Teach us to drive through life without skidding into other people's business. Preserve our brake linings so that we may stop before we go too far. Help us to hear the knocks in our own motors and close our ears to the clashing in other people's gears. Keep alcohol in our radiators and out of our stomachs. Absolve us from the mania of trying to pass the other fellow on the narrow road. Open our eyes to the traffic signs, and keep our feet on the

The day is come; the time is now; No better hour was gvsl hglgWho waits upon the when and how, Remains forever in the rear.

Though yesterday was wasted stuff, Your feet may yet seek out the way, Tomorrow is no,t soon enoughMake this a dav !

Explcrnation

brakes."

Intolercnce

This little Globe, wrote Voltaire, which is but a mere speck, travels through space with its fellows, lost in immensity. Man, a creature about five feet tall, is certainly a tiny thing as compared with the universe. Yet one of these imperceptible beings declares to his neighbor: "Flearken unto me. The God of all these worlds speaks with my

voice. There are billions of us wee ants upon this earth, but only my ant hole is precious in God's sight. All others are eternally damned by Him. Mine alone is blessed."

Becuty

Beauty does not lie in the face. It lies in the harmony between man and his industry. Beauty is expression. When I paint a mother, I try to render her beautiful by the mere look she gives her child.-Millet.

She-Before we start on this ride, I want you to understand that I don't neck." fls-"!og'1e wrong there, my dear."

She-"About not necking?" f{s-"}r[e. About starting on this ride."

Fecrring The Worst A certain church deacon was considered so important that when he was very ill the church posted bulletins outside the church door, telling about his condition. On the final day of his illness, the bulletins fead: "One o'clock, Deacon Jones very low."

"Two o'clock. Deacon Jones sinking fast."

"Three o'clock. Deacon Jones has gone to glory."

A passing wag read the bulletins, and added: "Seven o'clock. Great excitement in heaven. Deacon Jones not yet arrived. The worst is feared."

New Proccrc Rcproduccc Grain Of Naturcl Wood A new and exclusive l)rocess u'hich reprodttces

thc natrlral grain of I'orr-

llllclt^xl

"l)<xrrs rvith l'respine pancls have met with wide popular atcceptancc," Curtis officials statcd, "and the ncrv and exclusivc graining feature rvill add still greater pulllic appeal," it is fclt.

Curtis first intr<lcluced their new I'respine Prodtlct in July, 1948, an<l thc pro<lttct rvith thc naturitl rvclocl grain startc<l moving fr<tm Curtis plants in late 1949.

<lcros:r l'irrc on Itrespinc

llanels-uscd in <loors an<l otlrer wooclwork-is annourrcccl by Curtis Companies lncorporatcd, Clinton, Iowa.

Curtis Itrespine, nrade of firrely divided rvood, is in itsclf exceptionally resistant to'rvarping, shrinking and srvelling, manufacturers' test have shorvn. It also is resistant to heavy. inrpact blou's, rvill not nrar, dent or scratch readily, and provides an ideal l;ond for paint, stain, or any desired finish. 'fhe nerv grain figure heightens the allpeal of I)respine, the makers say, because it adds exceptional beauty where natural finish doors are preferred. The grain is an exact reproduction of the natural grain of I'onderosa Pine. The surface of the I'respine panels m3y be lightly sanded before finishing, if necessary. Prespine can be painted, stained, shellacked, waxed, lacrluered, varnished, enameled, and the finishing can be done either by skilled or semi-skilled labor. lJecause of the nature of Prespine, there can be no grain raising rvith consecluent checking or l>listering of the finish.

Curtis tests shorv that tl-re grain finish is fadeproof and lightproof. When finished, it withstands rain, snow, excessive humidity or sharp changes in temperature. The finished panels can easily be cleaned or rvashed, and Prespine door panels can be replaced as easily as ordinary door panels.

Prespine is available in practically all Curtis flat panel door models, including interior, exterior and garage designs.

Ilxterior Prespine doors are treated rvith toxic water repellent solutions to resist stain, termites and decay.

Appeal Board for Forart Urcrr listablishrnent of a National Forest Advisory lloard of Appeals in the l)epartment of Agricultttre is reported by Perry A. Thompson, U. S. regional forester at San Francist-r.

-fhe board, estaltlishctl by an ortler of Secrctary of Agriculture Charles 1". Ilrannatr, is to advise thc Sccrctary on any appeals to him fronr <lecisions of thc Chicf t'f the l"orest Service involving any public use of the National l'orests and othcr lands under adnrinistration or contr<ll of the Forest Service. 'l'lre lirard will consist of live cntployees <lf the I)epartment of Agriculture selected from agencies vr'ithin the l)ellartment otlter than the Forest Service. Membership of the nerv board will be announced later.

"Upon receipt of a written request to the Secretary frorll the appellant," thc order statcd' "the Secretary shall refer the aplleal to the board before which the apllellant may appear if he so tlesires an<l the llrlard shall ctlrrsi<ler the appeal on its merits and fttrnish its advice and recommendations to the Secrctary."

Under existing rcgttlations, users of National Forest l:rnds, sttch as grazing llermittees, pttrchasers of tinrber, ancl ht>lders of othcr permits, n.ray allpeal frclm a<lministrative decisions of the Forest Service to the Secretary of Agriculture. When an appeal conles to him, Secretary llrannan sai<I, it h:rs alrvays l;een the practice to call upon menrbers of the Secret:rry's staff to make an objective study of the case prior to his personal consideration antl decision. A number of grazing pernlittees, have, hou'ever, expressed a desire for a more formal arrangement.

The nerv National Forest Advisory Board of Appeals shoulcl not be confused with the National Forest lJoard of Revierv established in 1948. The Board of ltevierv is composed of 1>rivate citizens. Its purpose is t<l aclvise the Secretary on qttestions of general policy and the solution of majrlr problems arising in connection with adnrinistration of the National Forests.

Wood is composed of about 60/o cellulose, 28/o lignin, and minor quantities of other materials. Cellulose forms the framervork of the cell rvall. Lignin constitutes the cementing material that binds the cells together and is rnixed with cellulose in the cell rvall. The color, odor, and natural resistance to decay come from materials other tharr cellulose or lignin.
