Recognition of Forestry as High School Course Asked bv RRCC

Recognition of forestry as a "course commonly taught in the high schools" of the state has been requested in a petition to the state board of education by the Redwood Region Conservation Council.

The purpose of the move is to make it possible to obtain qualified teachers in forestry, explained E. T. F. Wohlenberg, president of the RRCC.

Likewise the council requested that the state designate forestry as a major subject in the requirements for general secondary credentials.

"We have aided materially in the establishment of forestry courses at two schools in the Redwood Region," Wohlenberg said, "but unless the state can make it possible for professional men trained in forestry to obtain the necessary credits in education to allow them to hold their jobs as teachers, it may make it difficult to continue these courses.

"The problem is that, to the best of our knowledge, there are no professional foresters in our region who are also qualified as high school instructors. We believe that this type of instruction requires a fundamental understanding of the technical and practical phases of our forest industries rvhich most general secondary teachers would not be expected to know."

Just 70 years ago, 1882 to be exact, a young fellow named W. E. Cooper, knor.l'n to his many lumbermen friends as Bill, went to rvork in the logging camps of Minnesota.

After two years of logging, he journeyed to Kansas City, Missouri, where he got himself a job selling lumber for the Central Coal & Coke Co., and called on the retail lumber trade in the Middlewest for a number of years. At that time, another young' man, T. W. Roseborough, u'as selling lumber for the Missouri Lumber, Land & Mining Co. They got their heads together and finally decided that they would like to get in the manufacturing end of the business.

"Rosie," as Bill calls him, located some pine timber in Arkansas, and all they needed was some money to finance the deal. So Bill went to work to round up the finances, and although he met with reverses, he got together the necessary capital. They formed a company, bought the timber, built a sarvmill, and in 1905 the Caddo River Lumber Company was born. Mr. Roseborough was president of the company, and W. E. (Bi11) Cooper \e'as vice president and sales managef.

The Caddo River Lumber Company prosperecl, they bought more timber and built two more sawmills in Arkansas. It kept Bill busy selling the output of three sau'mills. They continued to operate in Arkansas until 1938 n,hen they cut out their last logs.

During the 33 years Caddo River was operating they shipped lumber throughout the Middlewest, South and East. It has been said that Bill Cooper knows more lumbermen personally than any other lumber-
