SALESMANSHIP EDITORIALS ARE "BATTERY-CHARGERS"

My reason for writing you, is to tell you that in spite of the fact that I have been fortunate enough to have been selling Fir for a period of some twentythree years, I still find that such editorials as your recent one entitled "Walue and Wolume" are extremely beneficial to me.

These editorials of yours on salesmanship certainly are "Battery-Chargers" even to old timers such as Yours truly,

The Sawmill Reporter Does An Obituary

"I would like to hand in an obituary."

A man whose face wore a look of studied grief stood in the door of The California Lumber Merchant office, and made this statement in a cheery tone of voice. The whole office force looked up, but it was the Sawmill Reporter who replied.

"Has someone passed away?" he inquired. "And if so, who?"

"fle was a machinery man," replied the man at the door, "and I would like to say that for purity of pwpose-"

"Yeah, I know that one," said the Sawmill Reporter. "You were going to say that for purity of purpose, strict fidelity to the principles that ever guide the man of honor, our friend, whose loss we mourn, stood foremost among his business associates. Was that about it?"

"Yes," said the man with the obituary. "It WAS something like that. And I was going to say further, that he was an aff-"

"I know trhat one, too," said the Sawmill Reporter. He was an afrectionate husband, a kind parent, and nowhere will his loss be more keenly felt than in that hallowed spot where human love is ever strongest, human sorrow ever the most poignant-the sacred precincts of the home. Is that about it?"

By this time the visitor with the obituary was hanging on the ropes. "I was certainly thinking of something like that," he said. "But that was not all. In the humb-"

"Sure thing," said the Sawmill Reporter. "I know that one. In the humbler walks of life, where poverty boldly stalks, where crime is found, and where disease marks with its gaunt finger countless victims whose lives would otherwise be bright and joyous, our friend was often to be found, giving freely of the means with which a kind Providence had endowed him. Does that cover it?"

"That's wonderful," said the visitor. "But there is another beautiful thought about him. Now that Death-"

"Yeah. I use that one, too. But now that Death has stilled with his icy breath the heart that such a little time ago was pulsing with aU the vigor of healthy manhood, there is nothing left to us but a pallid tenement of clay, teaching all of us with painful directness the sad lesson that in tfie midst of life we are in Kansas-I mean in Death -and should impress us all with the necessity of being prepared to meet the stern summons that calls us from a life of turmoil and trouble to one where white-robed Peace stretches out her broad wings, where sorrow and strife are unknown, and where our departed brother now awaits our coming. How is that?"

"That's wonderful," said the visitor.

"By the wa!," said the Sawmill Reporter, "what kind of machinery did he sell?"

"Oil equipment," said the visitor.

"Shucks !" said the Sawmill Reporter. "We can't use that. Take it over to the Oil Journd. And those words won't do, either. They are for folks who sell sawmills. You want something rough."

"Thank you for your courtesy, and good-day," said the visitor.

"Bon Jour," said the Sawmill Reporter. "I don't know what Bon Jour means, but I read it in a book, and it sounds like hot stuff to me."

Not Excited

Jones says he was not the least bit nervous as he waited in the hospital corridor for his first child to be born.

His friend Smith agrees that Jones was wonderfully calm, but admits that he did see him put the lighted end of a cigar in his mouth once or twice.

Disapproves

"Do you approve of tight skirts?"

"Naw, I think women should let liquor alone."

Give Him Time

Wife: That new couple next door seem very devoted. He kisses her every time they meet. Why don't you do that?

Husband: I don't know her well enough yet.

Tangible Medium

"Papa," gueried the son, "what is the person called who brings you in contact with the spirit world?"

"A bartender, my son," repied the father.

Try It Sometime

The greatest satisfaction you will find in this tremendously interesting life is when your conscience congratulates you for having made some miserable man happy.

The Story of'Watern Pines

Portland, Oregon, May 31-In recent years the public schools of America have been devoting more and more time to the study of natural resources and their conversion by great industries into useful products. Teachers, as well as school children, have been clamoring for information about the lumber industry but very little has been available that was really suitable for use in public schools.

To meet this ever-increasing demand, the Western Pine Association has just published a comprehensive little book titled, "The Story of Western Pines." It has been prepared primarily for use in the 7th, 8th and 9th grades. This school book will give the younger generation a better understanding of this important natural resource and the part it occupies in American industry. It is written in simple language, is set in large type and is profusely illustrated, for out of 64 pages, there is an equivalent of 42 pages of illustrations. The book is of convenient sizelrlx7/s" with a bright colored cover.

Opening with a historical background of the first White Pine forests, the story moves along to tell of the extensive forests of Western Pines, how forests grow, how forest conservation is practiced, the importance of forest protection, how the forests of Idaho White Pine, Ponderosa Pine, Sugar Pine and associated species are logged and manufactured into lumber, ultimately finding their way into scores of uses in homes, farms, and industrial plants. Also included are some facts concerning the American lumber industry and the increasing importance of the Western Pine region in the national picture. Af the back of the book is a list of general questions, which teachers will find helpful for schoolroom use, and also a description of the Association's three educational sound films.

Although most schools are closed for the summer, or soon will be, the Association is making a concerted effort to acquaint retail lumber dealers and lumbermen generally with this interesting school book so that by early fall they, too, can help in distributing it to their local school officials and teachers. Single copies will be furnished free to lumbermen, school superintendents, principals and teachers by the Western Pine Association, 510 Yeon Bldg., Portland, Oregon.
