We Grow Prouder Every Day of Our Philippine Hardwoods

The story of Philippine Hardwoods is an epic in lumber history.

A few years ago an unknown, untried, suspected newcomer, knocking at the gates of the industry.

Today understood, appreciated, accepted, and lauded as one of the world's most wondrous varieties of wood, varied, versatile, useful, beautiful, sterling .in its value, it is every day becoming a wood of univers'al use in the U. S.

Truly, in the long run, "merit will tell". It has been so with Philippine.
