Weyerhaeuser 4-Square increasing sales with
More and more lumber dealers are using the 4-Square Building Servioes to sell building prospects-and to increase the sale of every item in their yards. The Services work this way:
People who are interested in building a new home or a farm building read about the Weyerhaeuser 4-fuuare Home Building Service or the 4-fuuare Farm Building Service in leading national magazines. These advertisements advise prospects to go to their local Weyerhaeuser 4-Square Lumber Dealer to see ssores of professionally designed plans.
HowEach month thousands of prospects request literature offered in Weyerhaeuser advertising. These people are sent the names of Weyerhaeuser 4Square Building Service Dealerswhile their names are also furnished to dealers for local follow-up.
Many dealers are employing these Building Services because of the help gained in stimulating sales, and in identifying their yards as local building headquarters.
For full infonnation, ask your Weyerhaeuser District Representative about the program, or write to us.

If you should see a friend slipping away from you, run after him and bring him back. For friends are more precious than gold.
"If I could make a friend tonight I did not have at this day's dawn, One hand that held my fingers tight, One breast that I might lean uponIt would not matter what reward The hours have brought me on the way, If I could say 'I thank Thee, Lord, I know I made a friend today'."

PLYWEAVE REDWOOD today are civilized. Civilized men do not torture. The first mark of savagery is the tendency to torture. And the entire history of the two big red nations is one of torture and other horrid things which, in the words of Col. Arnold, "civilized people do not know about."
Brain service can be bought, lip service can be hired, physical service can be contracted for, but heart service is the kind that you get in exchange for friendship, helpfulness, and liberality.
When you see and deplore the weakness so manifest in so many, remember this: it may be heredity. The sorry character of the first man, Adam, has probably done more to develop the belief in evolution than have the scientific teachings of Darwin. Poor, weak Adam ! The minute he got into trouble, instead of facing the music like a man, he blamed it all on his wife. Instead of standing up and taking the blame-or at least a share of it-he just passed the buck to Eve. I've never criticized the old boy for eating the apple, but I've always despised him for failing to defend his woman. "The woman tempted me" is probably the most craven plea tr nt.r?.*

You read much about Faith. Let's talk about it for a moment. Faith isn't trying to believe something in spite of the evidence; Faith means daring something regardless of consequences. If moral forces are to continue to function in the world; if they are to sway it and control it and avoid another era of the Dark Ages, then Faith and devastating need-is for men who will not truckle or bargain for what is right, and will not cringe before the powerful; but rather for men of uplifted crest, brave enough to face and withstand the multitude in defense of their opinions. The yes men of today are multitude.
Courage must gather and grow among men. There are no substitutes for these virtues. Don't let anyone deny your right to have Faith.
The need of the d"r-;.
Wealth is not a crime any more than healqh, or strength. Man should be judged not by his wealth, but by the way he uses it. To sell what you have and give all to the poor is NOT a panacea for poverty. That precept falls flat because, if followed, who would be left to buy? The trouble with wealth and its possession is not inherent in that possession, but is in the individual. A friend pointed to a modern Croesus just the other day, and said to me: "He is worth two hundred million dollars." I said; "Who to?" My friend asked, "What did you say?" And I repeated: "Who to? Who is he worth that to?" My friend thought a minute, then said, "Oh, a philosopher, eh?" I said: "Yah! A philosopher !" For, while the world is blessed with a lot of fine men who consider their wealth a stewardship, a weapon for good placed in their hands, they are far in the minority. Of my own experience I have known so many very rich men who, when they died, left the world poorer by exactly the amount of their board and keep. And such lives are tragic failures-bankruptcies.
