Recently he has been traveling in Southern California out of the Los Angeles offibe, and has built up a wo'nderful acquaintance with the lumber trade of this territory.

So the other day General Manager Olsen of the Los Angeles office called the young'man in and wrote the title of "Sales Manager" after his name. He will handl,e all McCormick sales in Southern Californ,ia, and also in ,our sister state of Arizon:a, fro,m the Los Angeles office.
