B. H. Smith's Famous Slgn

The personal sketch about B. H. Smith, of the Long-Bell Lumber Company, t'hicl-r recently appeared in these columns, brings to mind a famous office sign he u'as once the author of.

When Mr. Srr.ritl'r u.as oper;rting I-ong-Bell's biggest Yellorv Pine sau'rni1l, at l-ongville.

It rvas a fir'e headrig nrill, arrd so verst that it n'as the talk of the lumber inclustrl'.

Soon it got so that u'henever a sawmill supply salesman marle a sales talli hc never failed to mention the fact that "u'e sell Great Southern." This was supposecl to sholv their standing in the industrl'. B. tI. Smith hacl that "r,ve sell Great Soutl.rcrn" pulled on him so oftcn, that he finally got tirecl of it, ar-rd he .had a big sign printed and stuck up on the u,a11 behind his cl.rair u'hcre evcry salcsman 'rvorrld see it the minute he u-a1kcd in. Ancl thc sign sin.rlrly read:
