Heading the new division, Joe Wilson, an experienced young lumberman, has proven his sales and administrative abilities as manager of Chase Lumber Company, San Jose, for the past eight years.

An Air Force pilot during WWII, Colorado-born Joe came to California during 1945 to work as a lumber salesman in a San Jose retail yard. A strike in the yard soon left Joe a lumber salesman with no lumber to sell, so he went to work unloading cars for Chase. In a short time, he progressed to a steady yard job-then into office work and inside sales. In 7949 Joe was named assistant manag'er, and, in 1950, manager of the Chase operation at San Jose.

A Good Debtor

A good debtor is one whose applied earning equipment, whether it be property, muscle or brain, indicates sufEcient income to take care of the line of credit desired, and whose known inclinations warrant that in a case of temporary failure, his honor will remain intact.

Above the Clouds

When an airplane strikes a bank of fog or clouds that dims the vision of the driver, he turns the nose of the machine upward and fies above the clouds. So do thinking men in all their problems of life. There is always a sky above the cloud and fog.

She Understood

An employer tvas interviewing an applicant for a secretarial position, and asked: "I suppose you understand the importance of punctuation?"

"Yes, sir," she said, "I always get to work on time."

The House by the Side of the Rood

By Sam Foss

There are hermit souls that live withdrawn

In the place of their self-content;

There are souls like stars that dwell apart

In a fellow-less firmament;

There aie pioneer souls that blaze their paths

Where the highways never ran,

But let me live by the side of the road

And be a friend to man.

Let me live in a house by the side of the road, Where the race of men go by,

The men who are good and the men who are bad, As good and as bad as I;

I would not sit in the scorner's seat

Or hurl the cynic's ban,

Let me live in a house by the side of the road

And be a friend to man.

I see from my house by the side of the road, By the side of the river of life-

The men who press with the ardor of hopeThe men who are faint with strife;

But I turn not away from their smiles or their tears

(Both parts of an Infinite Plan), Let me live in a house by the side of the road And be a friend to man.

Let me live in a house by the side of the road, Where the race of men go by; They are good, they are bad, they are weak, they are strong, Wise, foolishand so am f. Then why should I sit in the scorner's seat, Oh hurl the cynic's ban?

Let me live in a house by the side of the road And be a friend to man.

Self-Esteem

When the brilliant Englishman, Oscar Wilde, visited New York, he reported to the customs inspectors that he brought to this country "nothing but my genius."

Good Advice

Jean Cocteau is quoted as telling a highly intelligent friend: "Never associate with idiots on their own levels, because, being an intelligent man, you will try to deal with them on their level, and on their level they'll beat you every time."

Stonley on Work:

"I don't believe that an unemployed man, however amiable and otherwise respectable, was ever, or ever can be, really happy. As work is our life, show me what you can do, and I will show you what you are. Love of one's work is the best preventative against petty anxieties, and the annoyances that arise out of indulged self-love."
