A large crowd recently gathered around White Brothers' plant at San Francsico, watching stevedores piling hardwood. One man would stand at the bottom of the pile and with one hand toss up large planks to another man who would catch them with one hand and drop them on the top of the pile. Investigation proved, however, that the men were handling Balsa, the extremely light weight South American wood. This wood only weighs about a quarter of a pound to the board foot. Two photographs, showing three young ladies of the company's office staff, holding good-sized planks, demonstrates the lightness of Balsa.
