ten years older. At times he seems
to care for me and other times he
Is just reverse.
Kindly advise me what you think
is best to do. ANNAH.
Do nothing. It's just a trait of
human nature. IL you will study
yourself you'll probably find there
are times when you scarcely think
of the young man and don't care
IL he comes TO see you that night
or not.
MY DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
My brother and girl friend are In
love. Although she comes TO visit
me often. my brother never enters
into deep conversation and when
an outing Is suggested, he turns
away still he loves this girl. What
shall l do TO bring them together7
ANXIOUS
Keep your fingers out OF the pie. II
your brother truly loves your girl
friend, he doesn't need assistance
from you In telling her so or in
looking out for her pleasure. A
good way for you to spoil things
for them Is to try to butt In" on
their affairs.

SOUTHERN PINE
STRENGTH IS com.
PARED With FIR

That there is little difference be-
tween the strength of the southern
pines and that of Douglas fir from the
Pacific Northwest, is shown by tests
made at inc United States Forest
Products laboratory, Madison.
True longleaf yellow pine averages
heavier, stronger, and tougher than
Douglas fir. True shortleaf pine aver
ages heavier and tougher than fir,
but is about equal to it in strength as
beam or post. Loblolly pine, though
averaging heavier than the fir, is

somewhat weaker. The difference in
strength between any of these pines
and Douglas fir, however, is not so
great but that low density pieces of
the enc species are weaker than the
average for the other species.
As to strength, the choice between
any two lots of southern pine and
Douglas fir viii depend upon the grade
and density Of the timber composing
each lot. The Rocky Mountain type
Of Douglas fir averages considerably
weaker than the Pacific coast type.
