Lumber Production Hits New High

\Vashington, D. C.. October 1, 1'918 . . l,umber produc-' tion in August reached a ne\\r peak and u'as the highest rnonthlv total on record, R. A. Colgan, Jr., Executive Vice I'resident of tire National Lumber \'fanufacturers Association rep, rrted t,,da1'.

"If there is no slackening of clemand, irroductiorr u'ill continue at a high level," N{r. Colgan declared, "u'ith total outprlt for 19.18 exceeding last year's 37-billion-board-feet by at least fir'e percent."

In releasing the procluction figrrres, N[r. Colgan pointed out that the great volume of lu.nrber being rnanufactured is stimul:Lting the contilrrling iurprovement of forest resorlrces, rathcr than the contrarv. The heavy demand for lun.rber ancl forest products, he said, is sen'ing "q'r str,r.lg incerrtive to o\vners of both large and srnall tracts oi forest lar.r<ls t<i manage their holclings so as to yield continuous crops o{ trees.

Courteiy

"The elephant has joints, but not for courtesy; his legs are legs for necessity, not for flexure."

The ofifice boy had limber jaws

And bubble gum he chewed, He had no time for friendly speech

And often he was rude.

A stranger came to see the boss, The day was cold and raw, "Please, is he in ?" he gently asked, And Johnnie answered, "naw."

The maiden at the telephone

Was young and fair and neat, Her voice, when she made use of it, Was rather low and sweet; But when inquirers asked of her, Concerning this or that, She'd yawn and answer "yeah," or "nope," In drawling tones and flat.

The manager was bright enough, And had I been like him, I would have forced myself to smile

And show both zeal and vim.

But he was puffed with foolish pride, And so he'd strut and try

To over-awe his customers

When they came in to buy.

And therefore when I wish to buy, I quite ignore the place

And go where everyone can wear A bright and smiling face.

Where office boy and manager

Have time to speak to me

And voice and smile and friendly hand

Are used for Courtesv.
