A Double Scoop
A certain small town newspaper cares very little for national or international news, but its enterprising editor is bedeviled by an all-consuming ambition to scoop the only other weekly paper in the district on local events of importance.
One week he accomplished a minor victory by being first to report a certain disaster in another small town in the county. The following week he printed the following: "We were the first newspaper to announce the fire that totally destroyed Perkins Paint Store last week. We are now first to announce that the report of the fire was entirely without foundation."
The Green Eyed God
There's a one-eyed yellow idol To the north of Khatmandu, There's a little marble cross below the town; There's a broken-hearted woman Tends the grave of Mad Carew, And the yellow god forever gazes down.
-J. Miltotr Hayes.
SaIest
St. Francis of Assisi said: "Only a weapon challenges a weapon, and might challenges might, while that which cdres not for worldly protection is the safest and lasts the longest."
I Believe
I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
I believe that every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity an obligation; every possession a duty.
I believe that the law was made for man, and not. man for the law; that government is the servant of the people, and not its master.
I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.
I believe that thrift is essential to well-balanced living and that economy is a prime requisite of a sound financial structure, whether in government, business, or personal affairs.
I believe that truth and justice are fundamental to an enduring social order.
I believe in the sacredness of a promise; that a man's iryord should be as good as his bond; that character-not wealth or power or position-is of supreme worth.
I believe that the rendering of service is the common duty of mankind and that only in the purifying fire of sacrifice is the dross of selfishness consumed and the greatness of the human soul set free. I believe that love is the greatest thing in the world; that it alone can overcome hate; that right can and will triumph in the end-Edwin Markham.
A Recl Gent
A man passenger on a crowded bus was seen to suddenly lean over against the window and bury his head in his hands. The man next to him was concerned. He asked:
"Are you sick, Mister? Can f help?"
"Nothing llke that," said the other, his face still covered. "I just can't bear to see a lot of old women stand."
Could Be
The personnel manager was interviewing a man who wanted a job.
"Ffow long did you work at your last place?" he asked.
"Sixty-five years," said the applicant.
"How old are you?" the employment man wanted to know.
"Foity," said the applicant.
"FIow could you work sixty-five years on one job if you are only forty?" was the next question.
And the man answered: "Overtime."
Lord Byron Wrote:
So, we'll go no more a roving, So late into the night, Though the heart be still as loving, And the moon tre still as bright.
For the sword outwears its sheath, And the soul wears out the breast, And the heart must pause to breathe, And love itself have rest.
Though the night was made for loving, And the day returns too soon, Yet we'll go no more a roving, By the light of the moon.
On The Run
Half the joy of life is in little things taken on the run. Let us run if we must-even the sands do that-but let us keep our hearts young and our eyes open that nothing worth while shall escape us. And everything is worth jts while if we only grasp it and its sign-Victor Cherbuliez.

Pine Plywood Manulacture
(Continued f.rom Page 42) plywood produced here is recommended for interior use only. Grading and construction are accordin! to the standards set forth for Ponderosa and Sugar'Pia,g plywood in the U. S. Department of Commerce Commercial Standard No. T5-4681.
The plywood produced. here is exclusively it \OOP Yo"derosa Pine ,construction throughout. Concentration of the .management is focused principally upon the manufactureof 3, 5, and 7-ply Sound 1 Side, Solid Back Panels in t/4", f" and fu" sanded thicknesses respectively and designed primarily to meet the needs of the cabinet maker and fur-'niture manufacturer, although other grades are manufactured to a limited extent. The exclusive and important advantage of the Ponderosa Pine panel to these particular buyers lies in the fact that the grain will not raise to destroy the fine appearance of an otherwise perfectly manu-' factured piece, and it was felt that this virtue could .be turned to best advantage among a trade where lasting appearance is of paramount concern. Accordingly, the moisture content of the finished panels produced here is very carefully controlled to insure ease of working and finish painting.
Timber sources for this mill lie approximately 35 miles eastward in the Sierra Nevada mountains, where three associated sawmills maintain logging operations. Logs are especially selected for peeler quality from among the timber harvest of these three sawmills, and are picked up at
SYcqmore 9-2674 va?ious points in the rvoods by Calaveras Forest Products Corporation's fleet of heavy Diesel logging trucks for delivery to their own plant.
Visitors are always lvelcome at this small but complete plywood mill. In this respect, it is worthy of note that the plant is located in the heart of the 49'er Mother Lode gold mining area made famous by the pens of such early-day writers as Bret Harte and Mark Twain. Near San Andreas, California, on U. S. Highway 49, it is also within an hotlr's drive of the wortrd'renowned Calaveras Grove of Big Trees an{ thereby a,point of more than casual interest to the outof-state visitor. ''i
New Medium-Priced Hcrdwood ?lytruood Panel
Development of a new, medium-priced hardwood plywood panel, known as "Weldwood Craftsman Grade," was arinounced by Lawrence Ottinger, president, United States Plywood Corporation. It is designed especially for home bwners and cabinet manufacturers at a price substantially lower 'than has been possible heretofore, Mr. Ottinger said, adding:

"This new product is the result of many years of research culminating in the erection of a large new plant at Orangeburg, S. C., which is highly mechanized and employs many novel techniques to produce a better product at lower cost.
"The Craftsman grade will be made in walnut, oak, korina, birch and gum, all in \/a inch thickness. It supplements the hardwood plywood produced at our Algoma, Wis. plant-the largest of its kind in the world."
