Gentlemen:

Managing Editor

Accustomed as I am to reading every issue of The California Lumber Merchant, I was more than pleased to find your reference, in the issue of September 15, 1959, to the C. Ganahl Lumber Company, as having completed SeventyFive Years of uninterrupted service to the Building Industry in Los Angeles and Southern California.

It is indeed a long period to have been in business with all the fluctuations encountered over the years, and I believe that luck has not been an unimportant factor in this record, on which you so kindly and gracefully compli. ment us.

Very sincerely yours, (signed) C. C. Ganahl.

Gentlemen:

I am writing to request that our one-copy subscription to CALIFORNIA LUMBER MERCHANT be sent to the Library in a wrapper. For the past several weeks the issues have been arriving in the mail in a mutilated condition. As we maintain a reference file of the magazine it is important that our issues be in a usable condition. The magazine is popular with our patrons and we cannot accept mutilated issues due to the great usage of the magazine.

We have been calling the Northern California office here in San Francisco for replacement copies, but feel that this is an inconvenience for us and for the office.

Please send us another copy of the September l, 1959, issue as this issue arrived today in an unusable condition.

Yours very truly,
