Appointed West Coast Stained Shingle Co. Representative in So. California

The appointment of W. A. Warner of Portland, Oregon, as sales representative of the West Coast Stained Shingle Co. in Southern California was made in Seattle recently by Phillip W. Bailey, manager of the concern.

Mr. Warner, who is widely known on the Pacific Coast, and in the building material field, will make his headquarters in Los Angeles, where he will handle the company's full line of products. These include stained shingles, hand-split shakes, processed shakes and the nationally advertised Creo-Dipt Shingles and Stain.

e"We are delighted at the new association with Mr. Warner," Mr. Bailey said. "He comes to us with a wide experience and acquaintance on the Coast in the building materials business. Ife was sales manager of the Vancouver Plywood & Veneer Company for the past few years, having resigned because of a serious illness from which he has now fully recovered. Before that he was in the brick manufacturing business, then president and manager of a large building material business in Portland. He has had six years' experience with the Wood Conversion Company of St. Paul, a subsidiary of the Weyerhauser Forest Products Company. In his work he has covered the lumber jobbing trade over the entire United States and a portion of the time was spent in Southern California cities where he has a large number of friends."

Mr. Warner has already left Portland and taken up residence in Los Angeles.

Her Gift

Never to see her wondrous smile again, She took my hand, she kissed me with her eyes, We can't go on, she said; I laughed. She lied. She always lied. I dared not question, Was afraid to know why she turned back, While I went on alone, But I have kept her with me as I go. In tall imperious trees whose fingers reach appealingly, To grasp the blue of space, in cool, deep scented grasp, In rippling brooks that silver little pebbles in their way, In chattering, perfumed crowds that jostle, frown, and pass, In hornely, quiet rooms where friendship is, I feel her presence, almost hear hir voice.

The wind and sun will come to me from her, Her eyes will shine from a pale corn flower's heart, A book shall be her message, and a song Her whispered benediction. Ah, Love, I could not keep you, but you gave A greater, finer thing than that you kept.

-H. B. D.

Why We Live

We live to learn, that we may learn to live. We welcome good books as we welcome good friends. We hunger for knowledge that will broaden our mental horizon and dig deep into the well of learning for a better understanding of interesting people. We follow unknown jungle trails and tramp burning deserts that we may see, hear, and know. We bend every effort for a fuller, richer, happier Iife. Yet how little effort we put forth for a SAFER life.

-Floyd Gibbons.

His Choice

Doctor: "Now, Sonny, this little operation won't be bad at all. Just take some deep breaths, and everything will be O.K."

Tough Kid: "Aw, Doc, I ain't worryin'about that. But lissen! I don't want no baby, see? I want a pup."

If You Want To Be Loved

Don't contradict people, even if you are sure you are right.

Don't be inquisitive about the affairs of even your most intimate friend.

Don't underrate anything because you don't possess it. Don't believe that everybody else in the wo ld is happier than you.

Don't conclude that you have never had any opportunities in life.

Don't be rude to your inferiors in social position. Don't repeat gossip, even if it does interest a crowd. Learn to hide your aches and pains under a pleasant smile. Learn to mind your own business. -The Friend.

Animiles

A balky mule has four-wheel brakes, A billy goat has bumpers, The firefy has a bright spotlight, And rabbits are puddle-jumpers. Camels have balloon-tired feet, And carry spares of what they eat, But still I think that nothing beats The kangaroos with rumble seats.

A Wide Difference

"Papa," said the young son, "What is the difference between a statesman and a politician?"

"A statesman, my son, wants to do sornething for his country. A politician wants his country to do something for him."

Proud Father: "Six months."

Bachelor Uncle: "Talk yet?"

Proud Father: "No, not yet."

Bachelor Uncle: "Boy, eh?"

Similitude

I gazed ulrcn an orchid fairEnchanted by its beauty rareAnd thought of you.

I saw it purchased by a guy, Whose money, anything could buyAnd thought of you.
