American Lumber Standards Committee meeting in Chicago has upheld a previous ALSC board of review action which, while recognizing the right of any manufacturer to produce and promote non-standard sizes, held that such sizes cannot be included in grading rules of any agency certified by board of review.

The board of review decision had been appealed by the Western Wood Products fusociation, on grounds it might constitute restraint of trade by handicapping dissemination of information on new products and products of non-ALS sizes.

EdEg BELIEVE FIRMLY IN the medicine of mirth, in the ffiffi longevity of laughter. Let's laugh today. You might re-ffi as well be dead today, as without a sense of humor. It saves you doctor bills, a smile beats a pill a mile, and keeps your heart h"ppy. If you haven't an automatic sense of humor, start out to get one and develop it. You can't buy it any more than you can buy a ticket to heaven. Just study yourself over to determine why you haven't got a sense of humor, and by the time you've watched yourself in the glass for awhile, you'll probably haveone'

How admirable is complacency and the ability to remain calm and casual in the face of general alarml like the world is in today, for instance. Bugs Baer said he refused to let the atomic threat disturb his rest. Said he was like the fellow in the boarding house who was awakened by hearing the landlord screaming frantically-"FlRE!" The boarder turned over on his pillow" and suggested to the excited shouter: "C*all 1e when the floor gets hot."

George M. Cohan, a genius of the entertainment world, used to say with regard to plays, songso and stories, you should "always leave them laughing when you say goodbye.o' That's the sentiment we need today in our entertainment world. It could do a world of good in times like these. l,aughter and song are the best medicine for individuals and nations. We could use a lot of both.

BY JACKDIONNE

The literary man is often painfully misunderstood. Stuart Holbrooko the late, great Pacific Northwest writer, whose hobrby was forestry and woods, wrote a book entitled, Burning An Empire, It concerns the great forest fires of American history. A fellow who bought one wrote and demanded his money back. He thought it was a book on baseball.*o'I wuz 1obb1d!" was his complaint.

Long years ago I wrote a couple of books. A jokeJoving friend who bought one of them, wrote me: "I read your ad and I bought your book. Why the hell didn't you get the fellow who wrote the ad, to write the book?" * * * *

It's like that in business of late. The man who can laugh when he catches Hell, is the guy that has the best chance. Say your prayers for a development of your sense of humor. Give that socalled sense a little of your direct attention. Practice up on your laughing.+**n needs 21/z million feet of lumber per month on a year 'round basis l" lumber Mqy Be S-t-S2E Or S-4-5.

Jim Swinnerton, famous artist of the West, trained a small group of Indians to play band instruments when he was on the desert. When a new arrival came to join the list of T.B.'s who were fighting for health, Jim's band used to go and serenade ttre newcomer. They usually played o'Nearer My God Thee" for him. If he saw the joke and laughed, they knew he had a good chance to get well, if not, they started getting ready to ship him back. He hadnot a chance.
