Nolon Trqdes Lumber for leisure

(Continued from Page 28) how true that proved to be Mr. Nolan notes:

"In my 46 years of slightly interrupted service to this grand company, I've served under five presidents. Throughout these changes, Pacific's policy regarding its customers, its employes and the public has remained on the same high level. I feel that this accounts for the splendid esprit de corps within the company, and the multitude of friends without," he said.

"Every job I've had since 1910 has been a lot of fun. And I consider the grand climax of a free ride from here on in-a most worthy reward," Nolan states.

Al's immediate plans for leisure call for an ocean voyage from San Francisco to New York, via the Panama Canal, with his wife of 33years, Mary. The Nolans, who are grandparents twice over, both enjoy oceanvoyages and plan to devote a lot of their time to traveling, in addition to spending more time at home entertaining their grandsons.
