Sacramento Valley Lumbermen's Club

If you were at the meeting Saturday, May 16, 1925, 'NOUGH SAID. If not, you missed a good meeting.

Wm. Falconbury, President of Central Valley Club, "Bob" Ingles and Charles Gladstone Bird of Stockton dined and "sipped coffee" with the boys. The coffee loosened their tongues and they did some good talking. Real construction stuff. Since Stockton became a "Port" there is sure "Spirit" in the lumbermen of that city. If Sacramento ever becomes 1 "pqft"-\MQ\M !

The Brass tack of the things is about this:

(From Bryant's poem, The Ages)

"The Weak, (Lumbermen) against the sons of Spoil (Ruthless Wholesaler) and Wrong (10c cement), Banded and wathed their hamlets, (business) and grew strong.

There were 40 or 50 members and guests at the meeting and everybody congratulated themselves for being present.

Claude M. Burley of Auckland, New Zealand,, was introduced to the club bv W. A. Glenn of the Coos Bay Lumber Co.

R. F. Hammett of the California Redwood Association, outlined and asked advice on an advertising campaign which the California Redwood Association is to start soon. Bird of Stockton offered a good suggestion.

The next meeting of the Club will be followed by a dance. Oscar Miller-Harry Fuller and the younger se.t can't be separated too long from the Ladies.

Lumbermen's Reciprocal Association (compensation insurance) was reported and recommended highly.

An Inter-Club relations committee to work with the Central and San Joaquin Clubs, was appointed by the President.
