Designed by the Public Buildings Administration, these walkways consist of a series of 3?-foot Teco trusses supported by timber bents.

The Measure Of A Man

The place to take the true measure of a man is not in the market place or in the amen corner, nor in the cornfield, but by his own fireside. There he lays aside his mask and you may learn whether he is imp or angel, cur or king, hero or humbug. I care not what the world says of him, whether it crowns him boss, or pelts. him with bad eggs. I care not a copper what his reputation or religion may be, if his babies dread his homecoming and his better half swallows her heart every time she has to ask him for a five dollar bill, he is a fraud of the 6rst water, even though he prays night and morning until he is black in the face, and howls hallelujah until he shakes the eternal hills.

But if his children rush to the front door to meet him, and love's sunshine illumines the face of his wife every time she hears his foot-fall, you catt take it for granted that he is pure gold, for his home is heaven, and the humbug never gets that near the great white throne of God.

-W. C. Brann.

"\l[/ere you annoyed because I sharpened my pencil with your razor?" asked his wife.

"i was annoyed twice," replied the candid husband. "Once when f tried to shave with the razor, and again when f tried to write with the pencil."

Coal

Coal was employed long before the Christian era, in China. The first shipment of coal to London was made in 124O, and. the first successful effort to smelt ore with coal in a blast furnace was by one Simon Sturterrant, an Englishman, in 1612.

In 1275 Marco Polo, a Venetian traveler, wrote as follows: "It is a fact that all over the country of Cathay there is a kind of black stone existing in beds in the mountains, which they dig out and burn like fire-wood. It is true they have plenty of wood also, but they do not burn it because these stones burn better and cost less.', In lZ50 the Virginia bituminous mines were opened and worked on the James River near Richmond. Five years after the Virginia mines began operation we hear of the discovery of coal in Ohio by one Lewis Evans, following which, in 1760, anthracite coal was first discovered in Rhode Island.

Thomas Edison On Work

Thomas Edison made this statement on his seventythird birthday: "I am glad that the eight hour day had not been invented when I was a young man. I am wondering what would have happened to me by now if fifty years ago some fluent talker had converted me and convinced me that it was not fair to my fellow workers to put forth my, best efforts in my work. This country would not amount to as much as it does if the young men of fifty yqus ago had been afraid that they might earn more than they were paid."

Rhymed Philosophy

I hate to be a kicker, I always long for peace, But the wheel that does the squeaking is the one.that gets the grease.

It's nice to be a peaceful soul, and not too hard to please, But the dog that's always scratching, is the one that has the feas.

I hate to be a kicker, means nothing in a showBut the kickers in the chorus are the ones that get the dough.

The art of soft-soap spreading is the thing that palls and sta.les, But the guy that swings the hammer is the one that drives the nails.

Let us not put any notions that are harmful, in your head, But the baby that keeps yelling, is the baby that gets fed.

Ode To A Nag

Oh horse, you are a wondrous thing, No horns to honk, no bells to ring, No license buying every year, With plates to stick on front and rear. No sparks to miss, no gears to strip, You start yourself ; no clutch to slip, No gas bills mounting every day, To steal the joy of life away.

Your inner tubes are all O.K. And'pray the Lord they stay that way. Your spark plugs nwer fuss or miss, Your motor never makes a hiss. Your frame is good for many a mile, Your body never changes style. Your wants are few, and easy met, You've something on the auto yet.

Redwood Logging Conlerence

The Sixth Redwood Logging Conference at Eureka, Calif., on May 22nd and 23rd, was a two-day session beginning with a field trip to The Pacific Lumber Company's operation on Yager Creek, and winding up with an allday indoor discussion of logging problems. The trip to the logging camp was preceded by a brief visit to the sawmill and the bark peeling and shredding plant at Scotia, and lunch at the camp. The party was taken from camp to woods on flat cars, and thence on foot to the landings.

The operation represents a newly-opened tract being logged by several methods-slackline, high lead and tractors, and combination of these. Mimeographed data on the operation was distributed to the visitors. Selective logging by tree and area selection is the aim for the entire tract, following results of a timber stand analysis in the Jordan Creek area and earlier experience with selective logging on Monument Creek. Company representatives reported on the analysis at the indoor session.

At the annual dinner session at Eureka Inn, the night of the first day, E. B. Birmingham acted as toastmaster; Winfield J. Wrigley made an address of welcome, and State Senator Irwin T. Quinn was the guest speaker. Senator Quinn spoke on the importance of logging to the redwood counties, outlined some of the changes he has noted during his lifetime in Humboldt County, complimented the loggers for inaugurating a system of selective logging whereby he hoped the industry would become continuously productive. County officers were invited, but only Supervisor Len yokum and Assessor George Fulton were able to attend. Member of the State Board of Forestry, Frank Reynolds, of Crescent City, was a guest. The field trip and dinner were pronounced by those attending as unqualifiedly successful.

Watt Hibler, Dolbeer & Carson Lumber Co., presided at the full-day in-door session on May 23. The speakers included: S. J. Sharp, California Redwood Association; K. B. McGuire, Caspar Lumber Company; Roy G. Wagner, IJ. S. Forest Service; H. I. Bower and Lawrence A. Dodge, The Pacific Lumber Company; Gray Evans, Hammond Redwood Company; D. A. Baxter, Holmes Eureka Lumtier Co.; N. I. Matson, Twin Disc Clutch Co.; Herman Bauman and Donald K"gy, equipment men; A. Whisnant, secretary, Pacific Logging Congress; Earl Barron, Chief State Fire Ranger, and Emanuel Fritz, consulting forester, California Redwood Association.
