San Joaquin Valley Lumbermen's Club

A general discussion on the subject of trade conditions in the Valley was the principal feature of the meeting of the San Joaquin Valley Lumbermen's Club, held at the Hotel Californian, Fresno, on Saturday, October 5. It seemed to be the opinion of the majority that conditions are somewhat improved.

James Clifford, the new manager of the Sugar Pine Lumber Company, Pinedale, was unanimously elected to membership in the club.

A motion was passed to the effect that all members of the club attending the annual convention of the California Retail Lumbermen's Association, to be held in San Francisco, November 7,8 and 9, will be allowed the sum of $15 toward defraying the expenses of the trip.
