I)ear Mr. May:

We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the nice article in your February 15,1962 California Lumber Merchant magazine. We both feel it was a very well prepared article and the pictures also turned out very nice.

The Ojai Lumber Company, Ojai, California, saw the story in their magazine. Since they are very much interested in a pole type storage shed, they paid us a visit and were very much impressed with our Building and Hardware store.

-John and Emelia DeWolfe, DeWolfe Lumber Com,pany, Quartz Hill, California.

The booklet also includes ideas for room dividers, built-ins and other home projects, for which free plans are being made available at authorized G-P retail building material dealers as part of the program.

"Heorin Hqndi-Chorf'

The latest "best-seller" in reading rnaterial about the plywood industry is only two pages long! And it's "sold" without cost!

The piece in question is the new "Hearin Handi-Chart" produced by Hearin Lunrber Co. of Medford, Oregon sales agents for RoguePly. Printed in two colors on both sides of a durable sheet of heavy stock, the attractive Handi-Chart is designed as an easy do-it-yourself reference guide for figuring prices (depending on base price, thickness and quality), freight rates, footages and truck and carload weights.

The figures are arranged in tabular form for quick reference, and the chart is pre-punched for binder insertion.

Response from salesmen, branchyards and others in the plywood trade who have .seen the Handi-Chart has far exceeded expectations, according to Joe Hearin, head of the firm.

Handi-Charts may be obtained without cost from Hearin Lumber Co., P. O. Box 367, Medford, Oregon.
