Dad

If he's wealthy and prorninent and you stand somewhat in awe of him, call him "Father."

If he sits in his shirt sleeves and suspenders at ball games and picnics, call him "Pop."

If he tills the land or teaches Sunday School, call him ttPa.t'

If he wheels the baby carriage and carries bundles meekln call him "Papa," with the accent on the FIRST syllable.

If he belongs to a literary circle and writes cultured pa.. pers, or if he is a reformer in politics and forgets to vote' call him "Papa" with the accent on the LAST syllable.

If, however, he makes a pal of you when you're good, and is too wise to let you pull the wool over his loving eyes when you are NOT; if, moreover, you're sure that no other fellow you know has quite as fine a father, you may call him "DAD." But not otherwise.

TIME LOST

The time I've lost in wooing

In watching and pursuing,

The light that lies

In woman's eyes, Has been my heart's undoing.

Tho wisdom oft has sought me, I scorned the lore she brought me, My only books

Are women's looks

And folly's all they taught me.

CALVIN COOLIDGE SAID:

Economic well-being is very important, but perhaps not so important as we thought it was. If it is used as it ought to be, to minister to spiritual well-being, we cannot have too much of it. But if it is made a vehicle for stimulating greed and selfishness, idleness and ignorance' extravagance and waste, destructive alike to body and soul, it defeats itself and vanishes until through adversity we can learn to make a better use of prosperity. The development of the real character of men and women can go on in bad times as well as in good times. After all, that is the important thing. We think we want relief from toil and worry, forgetful that all our real satisfactions are in our achievements. If we will but make the effort to develop them, if we will apply ourselves faithfully to our tasks, we shall all find that we have powers that we did not know we possessed.

Contradictions

It was midnight on the ocean, Not a streetcar was in sight, The sun was shining brightly, And it rained all day that night.

'Twas a summer's day in winter, And the snowflakes fell like glass; A barefoot boy with shoes on, Stood sitting on the grass.

'Twas evening and the rising sun 'Was setting in the West; And the little fishes in the trees, Were huddled in their nests. The rain was pouring, pouring down, The moon was shining bright, And ever5rthing that you could see, Was hidden out of sight.

While the organ pealed bananas, Lard was rendered by the choir, As the sexton rang the dish-rag, Someone set the church on fire.

"Holy smoke !" the preacher shouted, In the rain he lost his hair, Now his head resembles Heaven, For there is no parting there.

Another Coffee Story

The panhandler approached the gentleman standing on the corner, and said:

"Govnor, how about giving me a dollar ninety-eight cents for so,me coffee?"

"Where do you get that dollar ninety-eight stuff?" asked the inquisitive gent.

"Well, Govnor, it's this v?y," said the bum. "I'm tired asking folks for a nickel for coffee, and with a dollar ninetyeight I can buy a percolator and a pound of coffee, and make my own."

Current lgsue "The Palco \(/ool Insulator"

Herbert A. Habeck Appointed District Features Cold Storage Locker Plants Salag Manager for Eagtern Territory

Two hundred cqld storage locker plants in eighteen different states, all insulated with Palco Wool. are featured in the current issue of "The Palco Wool Insulator," published by The Pacific Lumber Company of San Francisco.

With sixteen pages of illustrations and charts, it goes into detail in describing the construction and operations of twenty of these plants.

Among the unique plants discussed, is one with a double-deck arrang'ement of the lockers which gives greater cubicle content with less floor, wall and ceiling area. Such a method, is reported by the owner, to conserve first costs as well as operating costs of the plant.

Also included, is a report from a grocery and meat market manager who installed a locker service. This man found that the locker plant has increased his grocery and meat market business while bringing in extra revenue from locker rentals.

Palco Redwood Lumber is also featured in the construction details due to its distinctive properties which make it ideally adaptable for interior finishes in locker plants.

According to Edric E. Brown, manager of the Palco Wool division of The Pacific Lumber Company, extra copies of the booklet are available for those interested by writing the company's headquarters, 100 Bush Street, San Francisco.

Back From European Trip

George Pope, Jr., president, and Charles R. Wheeler, executive vice-president, Pope & Talbot Lumber Company and McCormick Steamship Company, have returned from a month's business trip to Europe.

On August n, 1913, Nelson H. Morgan entered the employ of the Libby Lumber Company, Libby, Montana, an affiliate of the Shevlin Carpenter Clarke Company, soon thereafter starting as a salesman. On February 1, 1916, he was transferred to the Minneapolis office of the Shevlin Carpenter Clarke Company and remained there until May l, lgn, when he was transferred to New York as district sales manager.

Because of ill health, Mr. Morgan has asked to be relieved of the duties of district sales manager at New York, effective Jluly l, 1939. In the 26 years that Mr. Morgan has so faithfully served the various affiliates of the Shevlin Carpenter Clarke Company, and later the Shevlin Pine Sales Company, he has won many friends for himself and for the companies whom he has represented. It is with sincere regret that the company must accept Mr. Morgan's resignation. He has the best wishes of his associates and friends for a return to better health and renewed activity.

The Shevlin Pine Sales Company has announced the appointment of Herbert A. Habeck to succeed Mr. Morgan as district sales manager for the eastern territory, with headquarters continuing in Room 1604, Graybar Building, New York City.

Mr. Habeck entered the employ of the Shevlin Carpenter Clarke Company after returning from active service in the World 'War, on July 1, 1919. He has been in the New York office continuously since that time, first with the Shevlin Carpenter Clarke Company and later with the Shevlin Pine Sales Company. During these 20 years he has been active in furthering the interests of Shevlin Pine and the customers of the companies whom he has represented. He has made an enviable record in this respect, and it is considered that his promotion is well deserved. Mr. Habeck is well and favorably known by the lumber fraternity in the eastern states, and his many friends will welcome his promotion.

TREASURE ISTAND---A Triumph of Timber Engineering

Literally millions of dollars were saved by the application of the latest in timber engineering, with structural Douglas fir as a basic material, to the building of the San Francisco World's Fair, according to John J. Gould, chief construction engineer.

While the matchless economy of timber construction was a major reason for the specifications that led to orders for more than 2,000 carloads of Douglas fir and West Coast hemlock for the building of the Fair, there were other prime considerations.

With timber, architectural designs on a grand scale were made possible, resulting in exhibit palaces 886 feet long and with roof trusses having clear spans of 2@ feet.

Treasure Island is filled-in ground. Real insurance against damage to the vast buildings from variable settlement was provided for in hinged arch designs for the timber roof trusses.

Walls and wind baffles, structures such as the Elephant Towers-l30 feet high-were braced for wind resistance with Douglas fir sheathing diagonally applied. On most structures this was fortified by a second layer of Douglas fir boards, milled to form exterior lath.

l/2"x6' tongue and groove, mixed grain West Coast hemlock flooring was specified for the exhibit palaces, an area of 800,000 square feet. In the Ford Palace and other individual exhibit buildings the beauty and wear-resistant qualities of this flooring were capitalized by means of simple sanding and natural stain. Although the Ford exhibit draws great crowds daily, maintenance of this floor of natural beauty is inexpensive, according to C. L. Olmstead, exhibit manager.

A number of new ideas in timber engineering were de-

veloped by John J. Gould and other Exposition engineers and architects. For the Auditorium of the Hall of Western States, for example, three-hinged arches of 7O-foot span were designed, using 7'x12" chords, with a double layer of diagonal sheathing nailed on each side. The arches are 45 feet high.

The cost of the Auditorium complete was $2.66 per square foot.

The West Coast Lumbermen's Association has issued a four-page, two-color leaflet that pictures the most interesting engineering features of the timber construction of the ' San Francisco World's Fair. It is available upon request to the Association , at 364 Stuart Building, Seattle, Washington; or it may be obtained from the secretaries of retail lumber associations.

"This leaflet is really an invitation from the West Coast lumber industry to its patrons and friends to visit the Association's exhibit in the Palace of Ho'mes and Gardens, and to witness throughout Treasure Island an outstanding demonstration of the value of our woods in the uses of modern timber engineering," says Col. W. B. Greeley, Secretary-Manager of the West Coast Lumbermen's Association. "The traditional rornantic spirit of the Pacific countries has been captured and embodied in the Exposition's architectural design. All the resources of modern engineering in illumination as well as in timber construction have been wonderfully combined to make this spirit live on a gigantic scale. The result is a sttperb spectacle, apart from the individual exhibits and entertainment features. The timber structure alone will make a visit to Treasure Island worth while to anyone interested in the business of building."
