San Joaquin Club's Annual Frolic

By Bernard B. Borber, Secretary,

The San Joaquin Lumbermen's Club held its Annual Frolic June 20 and 21, at the summer home of F. Dean Pres,cott, whi,ch is located some 50 miles E,ast of Fresno in the high Sierra. Mr. Prescott proved himself to be a very charming and untiring host to the members and guests of the Club. Everything was taken care of in the most excellent shape, even to the minutest detail.

There were approximately sixty persons present coming from all parts of California, and one guest, in order to be present, found it necessary to take a plane from El Paso, Texas. I refer to none other than E. L. Green. who also astonished those present by taking a dip in the beautiful swimming hole at 7:N a.m.

A buff,et lunch was served Saturday, beginning at I2:AO noon and continuing throughout the afternoon, as the guests arrived.

W. K. Kendrick shared the honors with A. W. Bernhauer both as to endurance and ability on the golf course, beginning sometime Saturday morning, and only stopping for a few hours sleep at night, continuing through until dark Sunday evening.

A wonderful dinner was served at 6:30 in the great outdoor dining room by caterer Jorgensen, and what a dinner ! Baked ham, Virginia style, with all the trimmings. After

Son Joaquin Lumbermen's Club dinner, a few stories were told and short impromptu talks were made.

Breakfast was served at 8:30 Sunday morning. The guests amused themselves throughout the day by throwing darts, pitching horse shoes and playing quoits, and numerous other g'ames and amusements, which were provided by our host.

A delicious d,inner of broiled T-bone steak was served Sunday evening, after which a few more stories were told. After dinner, guests from the more distant points began to gather their belongings and hit down the sun-set trail, content in the fact that they themselves ancl each one present had enjoyed a most delightful week-end.

The following were present:

Team Work

It musta been a right smart horse Who figgered out the proper course To keep his back shooed free of flies, But not forget his ears and eyes.

You see, a horse's bushy tail Is made to swish, just like a flail, But though he whips it hard and rough, The darn thing ain't half long enough.

Hung way back upon the south, It just can't reach his pestered mouth, And fappin' ears and blinkin' eyes Are plum no count for scarin' fies.

Then one horse to another said, "I'll flip my tail across your head, For then your tail will work for me, And free from flies we both will be."

So there you have cooperation, Used by horses since creation, For human problems small or great, Ifse horse sense and cooperate.

-Lester F. Zeigler.

Repetition

"My experience tells me," said John Galsworthy, ,,that what you have said before you had better say again, if you want anybody to pay attention to it."

Either say it again, or depend on others to do it. Whistler and Wilde were great friends. One day in a company Wilde uttered a delightful bon mot, that thrilled Whistler with admiration.

"That was a wonderful remark," he said to Wilde, "I wish I had said it."

"You undoubtedly will," remarked Wilde, dryly, "many times."

Protection

A young lawyer from the North decided he wanted to locate in the South and practice law in Dixie.

So he wrote a friend in Alabama, asking what chance he thought there was in Birmingham for an honest young Republican lawyer. The friend replied:

"If you are really honest, you will have absolutely no competition in the law business. And if you are really a Republican, the game laws will protect you."

WHAT'S UNDER THE NAME

By Thomas Dreier

Once again Henry G. Chamberlain has come with information. He has tramped every trail, climbed every mountain, slept under the trees hundreds of times, told a million stories around camp fires, and many younger fellows wish they had half his stamina and energy.

Henry, in his wanderings about New England, visited some friends, the name of whose guest house puzzled him. Hungry for facts, like a Senate committee investigator, Henry began making inquiries. ft turned out that this guest house was once a shed with an outdoor toilet, and the whole building was called The Privy. When turned into a guest house, what more natural than to call it The privilege?
