The average camp is composed of 40
men, no more men being taken In than
the beds will accommodate. During
the afternoon the cook usually pre-
pares a bushel or more of doughnuts
for the jacks. These disappear at sup

have a jolly time telling stories of
the chase, Of the high spots" they
have hit when spending road stakes"
of movies they have seen in the cities,
of fights they have waged and Of thrill
ing experiences they have undergone
in their work. A lumber camp is no
place for a troublesome man or for a
man who is not on the square.
The jacks are great smokers. They
get their supplies at the company
store, practically at cost. Many Of
the lumber-jacks read, for they are
intelligent men from among whom the
future jobbers and bosses must come.
Cards are not played, for the bosses
want as little fighting as possible. The

The large common room in front of

While cutting methods have changed

over some of the duties of the ak, but

saw, the first step is to cut Il notch
with the AK on that side of the tree
looking in the direction in which it is
desired to have it fall. This notch is
wedge-shaped, the under surface being
horizontal and the upper at an angle
of 40 degrees. This notch serves two
purposes; it directs the fall of the
tree and also prevents bad splitting
of the bole.
After the notch has been made the
cutting with the saw is started on the
opposite side of the tree and few
inches higher than the horizontal sur
buried itself In the tree; then the
wedges come into use. They are driv-
en- into the cut, back of the saw, thus
preventing the weight of the tree from
falling on the saw and also helping to
direct the fall. Usually the tree begins
to fall just before the cut from the saw
has met the notch on the opposite side.
and while part of the bole Is still intact.
When this point is reached, the jacks
who are doing the telling are on the
alert, since it is necessary for them to

After the peeling, the teamsters
"grab-drive" the logs out of the woods
to the skidways where two expert skid
ders, waiting on the specially-built
lumber railroads, load the logs on the
cars. The jacks take their hand at
building railroads through the forests
as well as cutting roads for the team
sters. "Swampers" clear the roads

 Queen Mary, the longtime cham pion of the long skirt, has met with success Perhaps it is due: to. the than to the Queen, but at any rate the gowns are long skirted. But how the arms have blossomed out! It is matter of choice now whether the ankle or the arm is more pleasing to the eye.
