LUMBER INSPECTION \
WILL Be TAUGHT

The fact that Memphis is the greatest
hardwood lumber market in the world
Is to be recognized in the curriculum
OF the Crockett Vocational high school,
with the installation of a course in
lumber inspection at the opening of the
fall term on Sept. Is.
effort Of H. ]. NJ. Jorgensen, president
OF the Lumbermen's club Of Memphis,
that the course Is to be installed. Mr..
Jorgensen took the question up with
the school authorities som time ago
and showed them the necessity of the
course. The course will be given at
night and will cover six hours weekly.
A competent instructor will be selected
by Mr.. ~Jorgensen.
Il think such a curse OF instructions
should certainly be a part Of the cur
rtculum Of a Memphis vocational
school," Mr.. Jorgensen said Friday. 1T
will give a number of young men of our
city land there are no doubt a good
many who are ambitious to learn the
lumber business, a chance to get a
start. 1t has occurred to me that capa-
BILE yonug men might get employment
on the local yards stacking lumber, and
at night they can go to school and learn
inspection. In that way they can make
a living and get instructions at the
same time. There Is a great shortage
of inspectors at this time n the OPP
portunities for jobs are large. I believe
that a few months of this course will
serve to relieve the shortage to SOM
extent"
