Kipling

Now let the golden-throated Muses w€€pr And let the God of grief, in dungeon-keep, F'an Sorrow's flames through halls of pillared fame; He goes-and leaves to earth a hallowed name.

I{ere, where our feasts are ,marred by shadowed fear We shall not see his face again, nor hear The sweet-voiced lilting of his ample lyre That glowed, betimes, /vith strange Promethean fire.

TO HIS memory of a monrunent to it,

"Washington must have any man in history," said "How come?"

"\i[f'ell," said Ze didn't they?"

Some say He walks

And some, a ghostl e Road to Mandalay, moves down the bay And slips and through silvered foamless foam To bear the to his last home.

What though no wreath bedecked his brow. He stands beside the Bard of Avon, now, And grasps the hand of Milton, blind no more, Yet wists not how he reached that alien shore.

IIe's gone ! and soon we, too, shall see afar The mystic signal from a twilight star; And we shall sail our ghostly ship away O'er silver seas of light-to Mandalay.

T. Howard Wilson, in Los Angeles Times.

New Machine Makes Buckle Proof \(/ood Lath

A new invention to the lumber industry is the Buckle Proof Lath Machine and its produ,ct, buckle proof wood lath. Ed Westberg of Los Angeles, Calif., who is recognized as one of the largest plaster contractors on the West Coast for the past twenty-five years, and who has used millions of lath in his business, with the help of H. H. Hathaway, has developed a machine that will process a bu,ckle proof lath.

The machine was placed in operation and approximately 3,000,000 buckle proof lath have been used in Los Angeles without one complaint or report of trouble on the job. The product became so well known that dealers began asking Mr. Westberg to furnish them with these lath.

Seeing the possibilities of this new type of wood lath a'company was incorporated under the laws of California to manufacture the machine. The officers are Ed Westberg, President; Charles l-.arazeler, Vice President; Hans Westberg, Secretary; and H. N. Mottern, Treasurer. The omces of the company are at 611 North Alvarado Street, Los Angeles.

Among the advantages of the buckle proof wood lath, the company states, they will not warp, twist or buckle; will absorb enough water to make them 100 per cent usable regardless of age or dryness; will not change in any way whatever, due to climati'c changes or if left to remain in the open, and they can be stored indefinitely.

The Buckle Proof Lath Machine is a small unit of maclrinery that can be installed in any mill or lumber yard, and operation in a lumber mill can be started without any changes in existing machinery. It is a sturdy portable machine, electrically driven; simple in operation; capable of processing between fifty and sixty thousand lath per day; cuts the graiir in the lath without materially weakening it, ibut sufficient to prevent warping or buckling. It will process both No. 1 and No. 2 la'th, and can be pro,cessed at the same time the lath is turned out. Buckle proof lath is fully covered and protected by U. S. patents.

The Buckle Proof Lath Co. will not sell the machines, but will lease them on a royalty, which will permit any lath manufacturer to install them on a profitable basis.

The ,company announ,ces that one of the machines has been shipped to the C. D. Johnson Lumber Corporation at Toledo, Oregon, whi,ch will be the first mill in the North- ' west to get out the buckle proof wood lath.
