Changes in Lumber Yards,
In connection with the erection Of the
new building, a number OF changes
have also been made in the lumber yards
adjoining. In fact, one end of the new
building is to be utilized for the desks
of the foreman, superintendent and
shipping clerks,
A glance at the many interesting
features of the plant only emphasizes
the unusual facilities for carrying on
a business of this character The west

from the main line into the lumber

One of the strongest indications that

yards and various buildings connected

are made quietly for many reasons, not

tion is known for the first time only
by the announcement of the opening of

One of the more recent changes of
the sort is the move to be made by Nor

corner of First North, two blocks north
of the new depot of the Oregon Short

BIG TREES AT SEATTLE EXPOSITION

The whole front of the Forestry
Building at the Alaska Yukon Pacific
Exposition is a colonnade of huge fir
logs, not one of which is of greater
diameter than S feet.
The task was not to find in Wash
ington's woods logs large enough,
but logs small enough. In every one
of the 124 huge logs Of the colonnade
is sufficient clear lumber to build a
fve-room bungalow, with enough in
the rough left over for woodshed
and something in the way of fence.
It is the largest loghouse ever erected.
Any one of the big sticks is 40 feet
high, and all of them were cut within
a radius of fifty miles of Seattle.
During the exposition the structure
will house the states forestry exhibit,
the manufacture of lumber being
Western Washington schiefindustry.
To help out the display, the United
States Government has installed in
building the only timber testing plant
in the West, and this will be allowed
to remain when the exposition is over.
When the fair is at an end the
Forestry Building will go to the State
University, by which will be used as
a forestry school, and it also will
prove valuable asset to the City of
Seattle as scenic point for tourists,
for the building is set with a back
ground made up of beautiful Lake
Washington, the snow capped noun
tains and a tumble of forest upland
transce nding in its grandeur.

PROTECTING THE BIRDS.

The State of New York has law
under which it is made punishable
ofense for anyone to have in his pos
session for sale the plumage of any
bird. Offenders have been escaping
punishment by pleading that the plu-
mage of birds offered for sale was OBJ
tanned outside the State. Now the
law is to be amended SO that it will
make no difference from whence the
plumage comes, it will still be mis-
demeanor to offer for sale or to have
the plumage of a bird in ones posses
sion for sale.
1t is high time that steps should be
taken for the protection of the birds
of the country. Every State in the
Union ought, if it has not been done
already, pass laws for the protection
of the birds of the land. Some of the
States have laws for the protection Of
game birds, but give no attention to
the song birds. All the birds should
be protected.
1t should be an offense against the
law to take the life of a song bird at
any season of the year. 1t should be
an offense to rob or interfere with the
nests of the birds. 1t is a fact that
the birds are the friends of the farm
ers in that they devour insects that
are injurious to vegetation. There
are few birds that do not do this, and
the extinction OF birds is already felt
by the farmers in some sections of the
country. -Knox0TlIe Journal and Tn

our wAsrErUL poLrrENEss.

Not very long ago the manager of
a telephone company in one of our
larger cities issued instructions to the
exchange girls that they must no
longer use the word please" in COD
versation with patrons. 1t consumed
100 much time. "What number,
pIease?" was shorn of its embroidery
and reduced to "What number 7"
To be sure, it was less courteous, but
on the other hand it was infinitely
more profitable. By actual count it
was found that the girls had been say
ing please" goo, 900 times day.
Allowing half a second to its utter
ance, here was an awful daily waste
of I25 hours. Five days going to
waste every round of the clock.
sheer loss of 90 months out of every
year. Is it any wonder the manager
was concerned and put stop to the
drain? Why the time it took to say
"please" in one day was more than
enough to allow him and his whole
family to go to Europe.
True, this is but a local circum-
stance, but to those of US who are not
asleep it portends the beginning of
world. wide reform. If the elimina-
ton of a single word of politeness in
a telephone exchange can insure such
a remarkable saving of precious time,
our duty lies clear before US. "Hel-
To-" Dear SIR yours truly"
"Beg pardon, . Thank you, and
score of other little pIeasantries left
over from unprogressive days must
inevitably follow the fate of the tele-
phone please" and the kitchen
coffee grinder. 1t would not be sur
prising to learn that the people of the
United States say Good morning"
100, 900, 900 times a day. The loss
of time that this represents, allowing
a second to each greeting, is enough
to befuddle the most reckless spend
thrift. 1t means that as nation we
stand still more than three years every
day. There are not figures enough
to calculate where the world would
have been in its history by this time
if we had been free of just this one
encumbering formality of speech
