shipments for 1921 for the first seven
months were greater than for the
first seven months in 1920 and prac-
tically equal to shipments during the
same period of 1919.
Production, it win be noted, was
somewhat less for 1921 than for
1920. For this group of mills, ship
ments for the twelve months of 1919
were 96.93 per cent Of production,
and for 1920, 88.05 per cent of pro-
duction. For the first seven months
of 1921 shipments were 1928 per
cent of production, so that stocks de-
creased slightly. In July, 1921, pro-
duction was geater than orders and
shipments; but the reverse is true Of
August. 1t is clearly evident, there
fore, that in this group of mills-and
they may be considered typical of
large mills throughout the country
there have been no great accumula-
lions of stock and that with the in
crease in demand, which is making
itself manifest these stocks will
quickly be cleaned up and the mar
ket will be transformed from one in
which price concessions are made to
stimulate business, to one in which

SMASHING SCENES
IN "THE WHISTLE"

A drawbridge tender asleep at his
post; an open bridge and a motor
crashing into the inky waters below
child's scream and mans brave
plunge to the rescue!
This is one of the smashing scenes
in "The Whistle"-a picture pro-
duced by William S. Hart and written
by Lambert Hillyer who also directed
it. The original story is by Bay Will
moth and Olin Lyman.
In this new Paramount offering,
which will be shown at the Magic. City
Theater next Saturday. Mr.. Hart has
a new a role-that of factory work
ere, a man accustomed to Jump at
the sound of the whistle"
His attempt to mete out justice to
a man whose selfishness has resulted
in the death of the workers beloved
child, develops a series of situations
that come as a completely satisfying
train of events which round out to a
conclusion that is distinctly compel
ling. 3
In every way this is a powerful
drama and one that should satisfy the
most exacting. Three famous juve-
nile players appear in the cast. Frank
Brownlee has the heavy role.

Improvement in Demand
for Southern Pine

The general lumber market con-
tinues better, with the greatest i'm
prOvement shown in the demand for
Southern pine. So far this year the
market has been a declining one, but
there are strong fundamental rea-
sons why the market may now be ex-
peCted to show some price increases.
In fact this tendency has already
been clearly pointed out by the adj
vance in price of car material and
some of the higher grades. A study
of the figures Of production, ship
ments and orders show why this con-
dition prevails. For example, a COM
parative statement of 1874 identical
mills producing Southern pine shows
as follows, says the American Lum-
herman:
Production in 1921, 2,238,O02,
OPT; shipments, 2,3O3, 636,795. Pro
.duction in 1920, 2,647,437,6O3; ship
ments, 2,187,162,279.
Production in 1919, 1928, 121 900;
Shipments, 2,315,927,279.
From the above it will be seen that
