lndustry Authors Honored By Hoo-Hoo

Official news release lrom

Honorary Life N{emberships in Hoo-Hoo International have been awarded by the Supreme Nine to four nationally known authors "in appreciation of highly valuable service rendered the lumber industry."

. In announcing the action taken by the officials of the Order, R. E. Saberson, Snark of the Universd, said:

"It is doubtful whether writers in any other field have done as much for their respective industries as has been accomplished Tor the lumber industry by Stewart H. Holbrook, Stanley F. Horn, James Stevens, and Jack Dionne. Their books and editorials are not only required reading in the industry itself but have received wide public acclaim. It is impossible to estimate how many readers have come to know the industry better, and far more favorably, as a result of authentic information contained in their popular publications.

Stewart H. Holbrook, Portland, Oregon, grew up as a Iumberjack and is as mucli at home on a logging camp's deacon seat as on a Harvard University rostrum. He has come to be regarded as one of America's leading historians but continqes to write much concerning the lumber industry. Holy Old Mackinaw, which deals authoritatively and interestingly with loggefs, has gone through fifteen printings and sales are still climbing. Burning An Empire relates the incredible and fascinating story of the toll taken by forest fires and is accepted generally as the most authoritative treatment of the subject.

Stanley F. Horn was selected by Bobbs-Merrill, following their success in publishing, similar books on other industries, as the author best fitted to tell tlre story of the lumber industry from its earliest inception down to the present time. This Fascinating Lumber Business is regarded as the most comprehensive volume on the American lumber industry as a whole that has been published. To anyone in the industry, it is far morc interesting than a novel.

James Stevens has been writing indefatigably about every phase of the lumber industry Tor many years. His articles have appeared widely in leading magazines and newspapers and his book on Paul Bunyan brought this legendaiy hero

out of the bunk house haze and made him the symbol of the almost superhuman achievement of the men in the lumber industry. His pen has lost none of its fluency and he continues to write prodigiously of the industry.

In the annals of the lumber industry, no other rvriter has so constantly recorded the need for intelligent cooperation, better understanding, and a wider and more intensive application of the principles of the Golden Rule (the basic concepts of Hoo-Hoo) than expressed by Jack Dionne in his Vagabond Editorials. In addition to his serious editorial activity, he has entertained the industry from an inexhaustible fund of wit and humor projected into stories that have made him a prominent national figure.

All four men are widely known throughout the industry and appear frequently on convention programs and at other meetings where lumber and kindred topics are discussed.
