$ Aware of these natural forces, we have responded with an unceasing effort to keep our maior products in step with current trends. This has been done through close observation of what the public wants and by determining, through our own research and willingness to adapt manufacturing methods, how those wants are to be answered. { As a result, we have developed and now are marketing a notable improvement in flooring manufacture namely, Bradhy's Snaight-Line Oah Flooring.l$ Acceptance already accorded this product by trade and consumer has shown the old adage, "A Better Mouse Trap," still holds good. f Thus Bradley's leadership not only has perfected a constructive advancement in hardwood flooring, but in doing so, it has created through that product the means of awakening an immediate and profitable market.

$ Bradley's Straight-Line Oak Flooring is supplemented by Bradley trim and mouldings in Oak, Gum and Pine. For quotations on all Bradley products just telephone the Bradley representative nearest you, or address:

There'll always be an England, While there's a country lane, Wherever there's a cottage small Beside a field of grain. There'll always be an England, And England shall be free, If England means as much to you, As England means to me.

Yes, r believe in my;J .; "there'll always be an England." And if there is, it \ilill be because God Almighty has given of His own strength to an heroic people. I've read a lot of history, but the demonstration of pure and unadulterated valor that John Bull and his people are furnishing in Britain today, seems to surpass anything since this world began, when it comes to.downright courage.

*:t*

That same spirit that filled the breasts of Travis and his gallant band when they climbed to the topmost heights of immortality behind the blood-stained walls of the Alamo, lives again in the hearts of the British. What they have done in the past year, immortalizes them also. ***

And, dropping rapidly from the sublime to the slang of the street, it is common talk today that the battle cry of the Greeks in Albania'is, "never let a day go by."

**t<

ft was Whittier who wrote: When earth, as if on evil dreams, Looks back upon her wars, And the white light of Christ outstreams From the red disc of Mars: His fame, who led the gory van, Of battle, well may cease, But never that which crowns the man, Whose victory was peace.

But the man "whos" t*.ry orl" n"""",', the man whom all the world is hoping and praying for today, has not appeared on the scene as yet. True, the "Prince of peace" visited this globe two thousand years ago and left behind His gospel and His philosophy of peace, and love, and

helpfulness, but at the present time philosophies the direct opposite of His almost envelop the earth.

*i<:8

It was Charles Sumner who is credited with writing one of the most beautifully worded thoughts in all literature, when he said: "Give me the money that has been spent in war, and I will clothe every man, woman, and chrld in an attire of which kings and queens would be proud. I will build a school house in every valley over the whole earth. I will crown every hillside with a place of worship, consecrated to the gospel of peace."

{<*{.

Andrew Carnegie, one of the most generous and helpful men in American history, said: "I was born in poverty, and would not exchange its sacred memories with the richest millionaire's son that ever breathed. Give me the life of the boy whose mother is nurse, seamstress. washerwoman, cook, teacher, angel, and saint, all in one, and whose father is guide, exemplar, and friend. These are boys who are born to the best fortune. My experience is that wealth is liable to take the smiles away."

Russell Sage was "ro; ";. tl, "a.,i"" for young men, and this was his reply: "The best way for a young man who is without friends or influence to begin is: first, to get a position; second, to keep your mouth shut; third, observe; fourth, be faithful; fifth, make your employer think he'd be lost in a fog without you." ***

And it was the great thinker Thomas Carlisle, who wrote: "Give us, Oh God, the man who sings at his work. Be his occupation what it may, he is equal to any of those who follow the same pursuit in sullen silence. He will do more in the same time-he will do it better-he will persevere longer. One is scarcely sensible to fatigue when he marches to music. The very stars are said to make harmony as they revolve in their spheres."

All men who speak "J-.:"rr:mention patrick Henry. Yet read what Patrick, himself, had to say about another distinguished American orator of that day-George Washington. "If you speak of eloquence," said Patrick Henry, "Mr. Rutledge of South Carolina is by far the greatest

orator. But if you speak of solid information and sound judgment, Col. Washington is undoubtedly the greatest man on the floor." Great praise from the most faming master of the spoken word the New World has ever produced.

Which remark about the Father of Our Country reminds us that great men are not always great in all directions' For instance, it seems to be well authenticated in our history that George Washington $tas so certain that every' thing worth while had already been invented in his time, that he favored closing the patent offices.

When Lincoln -"" OJ", *""aa""U for the Presidency, there were thousands of people who laughed at the very prospect. FIe was green. He was awkward. He lacked the voice and grace of such men as Douglas. But he outlived his greenness, and his awkwardness, and he lived to utter many thoughts that will survive as long as this world endures. The green and awkward countryman became immortal.

Pope said: "A man should never be ashamed to own he was in the wrong, which is but saying that he is wiser today than he was yesterday."

Will Rogers used to rii.e a" *r, about the remark that a commercial airplane pilot made to him once. He was sitting forward with the pilot, flying about 200 miles an hour, when they passed over a passenger train going in the same direction. The pilot pointed downward at the train, and tolerantly remarked: "The covered wagon."

If you hope to o. .*J"o.rlr,"ri, ,-or"ssive, and worth while, you must strive to be excessively natural. No one ever acquired fame by affectation. All true greatness is earmarked by simplicity. You must sit by the fireside of the heart. Above the clouds it is too cold. Be simple in action and in speech. Too much polish suggests insincerity."

Jack Williams Makes Headquarters in Los Angeles

San Francisco, January 30.

-New duties will take J. W. Williams, veteran secretary of the California Redwood Association, to Southern California shortly after February 1, according to announcement rnade today by Kenneth Smith, president of that organization.

1'Mr. Williams' new post .rvill consist of liaison work rvith Southern California retailers and Redrvood sales representatives in line rvith the Association's announced policy of increased dealer aid," said Mr. Smith. "Probably no man in the Redwood industry could bring to this job as great a wealth of experience."

An expert on lumber marketing problems, both export and domestic, and long time member of the committee on stock patterns, Mr. Williams is well equipped to see Redwood distribution problems from the dealers' point of view. His headquarters will be in Los Angeles at the Association office in the Architects Building.

MERCHANT IS APPRECIATED

I have been thinking for some moons that I would write you a letter and tell you how much your California Lumber Merchant is appreciated by yours truly. There is a sort of rush at the office of the Dolbeer & Carson Lumber Co. to see who gets it first, usually Mr. Bullock or myself win in the scramble. But seriously, I do like your editorials, and also your Fun-Facts-Filosophy page.

A Britisher, visiting in this country, was enjoying an early evening drive with some American friends. They were traversing a country highway, when suddenly from a thicket alongside the road there rose the unearthly screech that only a screech-owl can make. It was a familiar sound to his American friends, but to the Englishman it was something most extraordinary. He motioned to the driver to slow down, and as he di4 again the cry of the owl shat-

Eubank \(/ood Mantels Well Received Masonite HoldsOpen House

In announcirg the new line of wood mantels being m an ufactu red by L. H. Eubank & Son, Ingleu'ood, Calif., L. H. Eubank stated that these are made of the finest California Sugar and Pondelosa Pine.

"Being a stock item made on a quantity production basis it is rpossible for us to sell Eubank mantels to the dealers at a much more reasonable price than the custom-built mantels.

"Any carpenter can install them quickly on the job by merely placing a few screws from the back and then nailing on the mantel shelf.

"One of the great decorative features is the fact that they can be painted to match any interior color scheme.

"Eubank mantels are sold through lumber and sash and door dealers and we are much gratified at the reception already given to this latest addition to our line of ironing boards and cabinets," Mr. Eubank said.

The illustration shows one of the several types now in production at the Eubank factorY.

Hollywood has glamourized movie stars for years, but now lumber steps into the limelight in motion pictures. George Pal of the George Pal Productions, Hollywood, home of the animated puppetoons, has his second picture in production, which like the first will be made fr.om animated wood models.

The first picture, "Western Daze" (which was finished on December 13) has just been released for showing, and will be distributed through Paramount Pictures, Inc.

All the characters represented will be made from lumber. Hundreds of these small wooden models will be necessary for a complete picture. The models are ma.de from clear and better grades, using various thicknesses, depending on what they want to make. At the present time they are using Yellow Poplar, Red Gum and Ponderosa Pine. Eventually, however, all species will be used.

A representative of this paper recently visited the Pal studio where he interviewed Mr. Pal, who is himself in charge of production, and watched their force of experts in woodworking making these small models, hundreds of them and minute in every detail. When the models are completed they are then inked and painted and ready for the cameraman who will shoot the films we will see in the theatre.

The third dimensional puppetoons evolved in Europe by George Pal are wooden figures performing in actual sets, synchronized with music, dialogue and special effects. There are no strings used as in puppets, and whereas animation requires drawing a separate figure for each motion, Pal builds a separate doll. The result gives a more fluid motion with the theatrical advantage of complete third dimension.

When Pal's heroine makes eves at the hero. 28 different sceaec tron "weere- jffi,.o#:?.":"T conedv-&c4rc ot rhe

leading ladies must be fashioned, each a different phase in the progress from the starting point, eyes wide open, to the final phase, eyes closed.

Before Pal's hero can kiss the heroine, a large staff of woodworkers and artists must work for days, and some 56 heroes and heroines, each slightly different, rnust be fashioned. Each phase is photographed as a single frame of film.

First steps in making a Pal puppetoon are the writings of the script, the composition of the music (done first so movements of the wooden characters may be clearly defined before they are made) and the designing of sets. These sets are just as real as in feature films, but tiny according to scale.

Pal then makes color drawings of the first, middle and last phase of each movement, and assistants complete the 25 or more drawings of the intermediate phases of each. The drawings are filmed and projected, to test the movements.

Pal opened his own studio in Europe five years ago to experiment with his idea. He left Budapest at the beginning of his film career in 1932 and went to Paris, then to Vienna. A year later he moved to Prague and then to Eindhoven, Holland, where he maintained a stafi of some 3O assistants.

Most of his past films have been sponsored by advertisers, for no European studios had distribution channels to warrant the expense necessary to produce puppetoons purely for entertainment Purposes.

George Pal was born 33 years ago in Cegled, Hungary.

After receiving his degree in architecture ten years ago, he turned at once to film work, hoping to use his architectural knowledge in the building and designing of sets. His fine schooling made it possible for him to swing right into puppetoon production activity where building sets was just as essential as creating puppets.

Five years ago he began to use color and today all of his films are photographed in technicolor. Some of his Hollandmade films are "Philips Broadcast," "Love on the Range," "Sleeping Beauty," "Philips Cavalcade," "Southsea Sweethearts" and many others, all in gorgeous technicolor. Music for his films abroad was supplied by famous English orchestras like Jack Hylton, Ambrose, Somers, etc. In this country, his first puppetoon, "Western , Daze" features Andre Kostelanetz's music. The second one, "Dipsy Gypsy" also has Kostelanetz's music, and other American musical names are being lined up for future films.

His first puppet star is called "Jim Dandy," whom he recently christened with a bottle of California champagne. Somp people say Jim Dandy is a composite study of Gable-Taylor-Colman at their best, but Pal calls him cosmopolite's idea of U.S.A.'s Elmer.

The fact that lumber is going to be glamoaized. in motion pictures will be of great interest to the industry, and lumbermen will no doubt be looking forward to seeing Mr. Pal's pictures on the screen.

It will be interesting to lumbermen to know the picture was completed on December 13th, released on January 13th, and had its Los Angeles booking at the Paramount Theater on February 13th.

HOUSES AND HOMES

By C. L. Browning

Houses are made of brick and stone, Of lumber and cement; Homes are made of loving hearts, Who dwell in sweet content.

A house may be a boarding place, Where men and \ilomen eat, A home is where a man and wife, With smiling faces, meet.

A house may be a place to stay, A shelter good or bad; A home is made by boys and girls, A mother and a dad.

A house of many spacious rooms, And crowned with costly dome, May gain the praise of passers-by, Yet never be a home.

A house will yield to time's sharp tooth, And fall in sad decay;

A home will live throughout the years, In lives it sends away.

A house may voice a vulgar pride, Of wealth or jewels fine; A home, though built of un-hewn logs, May be a nation's shrine.

A SUCCESS

It was Mrs. A. J. Stanley who wrote: "'He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children: who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never failed to see earth's beauty, or failed to express it; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; whose life is a blessing; whose memory is a benediction."

SECOND?

I'll never play with that doggoned crab again," stormed .a the belligerent g<ilfer as he stalked into the locker room of the country club. "I believe he's the meanest man in this club."

"Tut, tut, man !" said the club cynic. "You shouldn't say that. You forget yourself."

EVENING

When I come home and see the thousand things, That your dear hands have found each day to doThe mellow shade for that old lamp of bronze, The spray of wild-rose in the vase of blue, The fickering fire; my slippers on the hearth; My pa.per folded on the old chintz chair, Your spirit, love, pervades the whole dear place, For there is peace and beauty everywhere.

Mind fagged, world wearied, f can find ne uTqidsBut kiss the hands that hold my happiness. Words are so poor, My darling, can you read Out of my heart the love in each caress? Then, looking up into your loving face, So woman-wise, so tender there above, I know no man may gain three greater gifts, Than home, the firelight, and a woman's love.

DR. THOMAS RILEY

The story has been told before but bears retelling, about Dr. Thomas Riley, a dissolute doctor of the old days, who nevertheless throughout his life furnished his medical aid and advice to the poor and needy, without charge. His fortunes drifted ever downward, and finally for want of rent money he had to move his office upstairs over the local livery stable, where they let him stay rent free. So he put a sign at the bottom of the stairs that read: "Doctor Thomas Riley-his office is now upstairs." He continued to help the poor and unfortunate as best he could, and when he died they buried him. and then moved the sign from the livery stable stairs, and put it over his grave, so that it continu.ed to read: "Doctor Thomas Riley-his office is now upstairs."

Henderson Says Lumber Prices Have Been Too High

A meeting of the Lumber and Timber Products Defense Committee was held in Washington, D. C., January 23. This was the first meeting of the committee since its organization last August when at the request of the National Defense Advisory Commission the various lumber industry groups were invited to organize an industry committee to cooperate in the national defense program.

M. L. Fleishel, chairman of the Committee, presided and Leon Henderson, Defense Commissioner in charge of Price Stabilization, addressed the Committee.

Mr. Henderson declared that lumber prices are too high and held over the industry that threat of government price fixing if the situation he pictured failed to be adjusted satisfactorily.

In opening the discussion, Mr. Fleishel stated that within a very short space of time the Government required delivery of the enormous quantity of more than one and onehalf billion feet of lumber, which came immediately on the heels of an increased demand from private industry, resulting in forcing lumber production to the highest point , in eleven years. This was accentuated by the large number of buildings of a standard design requiring unusually large amounts of relatively few sizes and grades of lumber and with occasional ,exception all this was specified to be dry lumber. Undoubtedly higher prices were paid for some lumber than woud have been paid if delivery dates could have been better adjusted to the actual needs and if rush bidding and rush deliveries could have been avoided.

We urged a system of centralized invitation and bidding procedure, Mr. Fleishel continued, and we believe that the lower prices the War Department has secured since the month of October have been largely due to thii system of centralized buying. He also discussed conditions in Southern Pine lumber.

Mr. Henderson declared he had lots of figures on the lumber industry, but that the "main thing is that lumber prices have'been just too high... They are too high in terms of maintaining the degree of stability within this economic system operating at an ever-increasing level and with the serious demands for production that are being made on it and are likely to be made on it in the future, by, first, the increase of the United States Government's own demands as represented by the new budget, and second, as represented by the British and other requirements, and third, which is highly important, the Pressure for acceleration of the time of delivery of these things. . .

"As far as I am concerned, I have had all the argument and all the explanation and all the excuse that I need, and a damned sight more as far as the price condition is concerned. . .

"Acting on my suggestion, which was certainly concurred in by the Presidqnt and certainly supported by the experience of the War Industries Board, we have undertaken to leave as much of the decision as is possible in the hands of the organized structure of industries, and we have been very successful up to date with practically all of them. In the few cases that we haven't, where the government has had to institute some action, we have gotten what we

Los Angeles Hoo-Hoo Club Meets

Los Angeles Hoo-Hoo Club No. 2 met at the Mona Lisa Cafe, Los Angeles, Wednesday noon, February 5.

Jack Ivey of Los Angeles, field representative of the Red Cedar Shingle Bureau, showed the Bureau's new all-color, all-talking motion picture travelogue, "The Land of the Totem," which was enthusiastically received by the large gathering.

wanted for the government, and we got it at fair prices.

"We can get lumber. The government can get all the lumber it wants by fixing a price and having the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy forbid any buyers paying in excess of that amount; then, if not enough is offered, by using the Selective Service Act, which is nothing but an euphonious title for the draft act, for drafting lumber for camps the same way as you draft young men for camps. As far as f am concerned, if we don't get the lumber, I am going to make that kind of recommenda.tion.

"There is certainly one way to keep prices from going up and you don't have to have a conspiracy, and that is for the people who have the stuff to offer it at decent prices. That is all that has to be done in the situation. You don't have to enter into any conspiracy. . I donrt believe that you have to run the risk of any violation of a consent decree now outstanding. .

"I am not going to make a request, I am merely going to say I have only one test as to whether or not things are going right in this industry as far as I am concerned, and that is whether we have reasonable prices maintained for reasonable lengths of time so that producers may have the opportunity and the assurance of stabiity in their estimate of their costs."

West Coast Annual Meeting

Maintenance of the normal channels of West Coast lumber trade in the wake of the heavy flood of emergency defense requirements in the last half of L94O was the major problem before the members of the West Coast Lumbermen's Association in their annual meeting at Tacoma, Wash., on Friday, January 31.

The morning session was given over to Association stockholders, for reports from officers, election of l94L district trustees, and a panel discussion on specific industry problems.

In the afternoon session, lumber trade promotion and forestry held the stage, with Chairman O. R. Miller, of the WCLA Trade Extension Committee, and George L. Drake, Chairman, Joint Committee on Forest Conservation, presiding. L. J. Markwardt, in charge of Timber Mechanics, U. S. Forest Products Laboratory, Madison, Wis., discussed "Lumber-A Material in Modern Engineering," and Stewart Holbrook, lumberjack author and lecturer, talked on "Madison's llouse of Magic," a discussion on the U. S. Forest Products Laboratory. A showing of the new sound film in color of the Weyerhaeuser Timber Co., "Trees and Homes" ended the afternoon session.

At the dinner meeting in the evening, Arthur B. Langlie, Governor of the state of Washington, and Reno Odlin, president, Puget Sound National Bank of Tacoma, were the guest speakers. C. H. Kreienbaum, WCLA vice-president for Washington, presided as toastmaster.

New Saferized Palco Wool

A new "Saferized" flame-proof process for treating the Redwood bark fibres from which Palco Wool insulation is made has been announced by The Pacific Lumber Company, San Francisco. The nerv process, according to Edric E. Brown, manager of the insulation division, augments the inherent fire-resistant qualities of the bark of the redwoods, rvhich have withstood the ravages of fire and nature for centuries, to become the world's oldest living things. It is expected to meet the most exacting requirements for flameproof materials.

Blow-torch tests to which the new Saferized Palco Wool has been subjected show most satisfactory results, Mr. Brown stated. "When a sample is held in the hand and the flame blown directly into it, no fire results when the torch is removed."

That the neu' Saferized process will prove a definitely

favorable factor in increasing the sales of Palco Wool is indicated by the enthusiastic reaction from dealers and distributors throughout the nation, Mr. Brown pointed out. "One of our distributors has already placed commitments for 1941 based on an anticipated volume double that which he sold in 194O."

Palco Wool was first generally introduced to the trade a decade ago when research engineers of The Pacific Lumber Company perfected a process for removing the wiry resilient fibres of redwood from the solids in which nature had imbedded them. Its success since that time has been one of the romances of American industry. First adopted by the cold storage industry, its use has spread rapidly to the domestic field, one community alone, the Twin Cities, having installed it in over 30O houses during the past year according to reports from dealers.

The installation of Palco Wool as a fill insulation has been greatly facilitated by the recent developments in mechanical application. A new blowing machine has been perfected which transports the material from the point of unloading to the point of application and at the same time automatically fluffs it uniformly for maximum efficiency and economical installation. Where the blower-applicator is not used, an electric fluffing machine is available for expanding the material from compressed bales for uniform application.

Especially designed machinery and equipment have been installed in The Pacific Lumber Company plant at Scotia, California, where all insulation now being shipped is subjected to the Saferized rprocess as a regular step in its manufacture.

Redwood Houses \(/in Prizes in National Contest

San Francisco, January 28.-Redwood houses win prizes in national contest.

February issues of House Beautiful carry announcements of awards in that magazine's Thirteenth Annual Small House Competition, naming seven prize winners and honorable mentions. In three of the seven award winners, Redwood was used for exterior siding and trim.

First prize went to Gardner Dailey, San Francisco architect, for a rambling one-story house at Monterey, California, using flush Redwood shiplap. Honorable mentions were won by W. W. Wurster, also of San Francisco, with a home which uses both Redwood Mt. Vernon siding and flush shiplap finished in its natural color; and a second honorable mention was taken by Hervey Parke Clark, who also used natural finish Redwood for all exterior surfaces and for the interiors of the dining room and living room.

The Lincoln Story

Contributed by Roscoe C. Smith Dolbeer & Corson Lumber Co., Eureko, Calif.

The story is told, that on the morning of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, down in Hodgensville, Kentucky, the usual group of citizens from the little town were seated about the stove in the Post Office and store combined, when one of the town loafers who was noted for his news gathering capacity wandered in and one of the group addressed him as follows: "Good mornin', Ezra, is there any news in torvn this mornin'?" To which he replied: "Oh ! nothin' in particular 'cept Tom and Nancy Lincoln has got a baby boy down at their cabin."

Isaiah 9:6, "For unto us a Child is born; unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulders."

(The following is my reflection upon the story.)

THEIR GIFT

The God of men had asked for gifts, That this experiment, New found upon the Western shores, Might demonstrate its right to live. The Order said, that all must bring a gift; But how from out the direst poverty, Could Tom and Nancy give.

It could not be a gift of gold or jeweis rare, The very floor on which they trod was rough and bare, Hewn with what arduous labor with the axe, This woodsman's house gave barest shelter

From the hard cold facts of life. A GIFT! What could it be?

They fain would do their part, They pondered deep, while dire necessity pressed hard,

They must not fail.

The message of their God must sure avail.

And then at last when all seemed dark without And full-contrived to fill their souls with doubt.

There came from out the nebulae, An answer to their one desire.

The gift of life that had been tried by fire, 'Twas all they had to give,

That this, the Country of their love, might live. So, out from that poor woodsman's home conceived with joy

Great God received their gift, A BABY BO1I.
