traffic regulations are designated within the plant. Every inch of storage and display space is in use.

To facilitate handling of small orders and to build large mixed orders, several Berkot lumber carriers are in use within the yard area. These carts are designed to fit the needs of retail lumberyards and are adaptable to filling customer orders as well as hauling mouldings from the mill for dry storage in the shed. "\Me just couldn't get along without these little guys," Ed Stoner said.

Although the property values, and taxes, quadrupled five or six times during the past four decades, Ed indicated Sawtelle Lumber would remain in the same location for a long time to come.

"We are a definite part of this neighborhood. In fact, we practically built this area by furnishing lumber and building material," he said. "So no matter when, or where, we could move to any other location, we just have to consider the folks we grew up with," he continued.

Sawtelle Lumber Company is a service institution first, last and all the time. Every yard employee is a trained lumberman and, above all, a salesman. The customer is, at all times, the number-one consideration, and he can fill his every building need at Sepulveda and Santa Monica in 'West Los Angeles. So operates Ed Stoner, pioneer retail lumber dealer.

Bocon for 'Bringing lt Home'

A half-century of successful selling i is a record in and age (especially our present "Jet Age") but any day Strable "Jet but Lumber Company's Ralph Bacon has chalked up up that enviable record and, what's more, he's starting in on his second half-century just as strong as ever.

Ralph was hosted to a stas dinner at r stag dinner the Bow and Bell in rkland, Friday evening, Marqh 18, in appreciation of his years of steadfast service td Strable. But this was a lot

Although he somewhat suspected "something afoot," young-old timer Ralph was visibly moved when he arrived at the party and found 55 good friends and customers on hand for the momentous occasion. Dealers such as Larry King from Bakersfield, Joe Kirk from Santa Maria, and Charlie Cross, Sr. from Truckee were just a few who had known Ralph most of those long years -and who had driven clear to Oakland to be on hand for the party.

At the banquet table, it was a little bit of everything for Ralph-from a special citation from the Mayor of Oakland to a telegram from "Lili St. Cyr" which really broke the meeting up.

But the best of all was saved until the last, when General Manager Jim Overcast, who toastmastered the event, presented Ralph with a "small token of our gratitude"
