Charles B. (Charlie) Monday, of Lake Charles, La., recently made an extended trip to the Pacific Coast, during which time he visited a great many of the large Fir mills in Washington and Oregon, traveling north to Vancouver, B. C., and down the Coast to San Francisco and Los Angeles on his way home.

Mr. Monday's lumber experience in the Southwest includes a period of.23 years in executive positions, the last 6f years of which he was sales manager for Lock Moore & Company, Westlake, La., which company cut its last log a few months ago.

Being thoroughly convinced that in a much shorter time than most lumbermen realize, Fir rvill be taking the place of Yellow Pine in the Southwest, Mr. Monday decided to come to the Coast with the idea of making a connection rvith some high class Fir operation, which is ready to add the great Southwest to its sales territory. After he has thoroughly acquainted himself u'ith the manufacture of Fir he will be ready to start selling QUALITY Fir lumber to the same men to whom he has been selling QUALITY Southern Pine for so manv years.
