Traditional Tree Twists Record Bluebirds' Camp Another twist was added to the two young myrtle trees at Camp Tyee Sunday when two outstand ing campers, Janice O'Brien and Maryanna Wells, were chosen to participate in this annual tradition. This special event was begun the first year of Camp Tyee's sum mer sessions and the trees now boast three twists. The trees are twisted only by the Bluebirds and will be a symbol in the years to come of attendance of Bluebirds at summer camp.

Williams More Freight Cars Readied For Lumber Cargoes PORTLAND, UP) Western railroads have made at least 1,000 more freight cars available for lumber shipment as a result of an appeal by the West Coast lumber's association, an inaustiy spokesman says. The railroads agreed to abolish what is known as "slow movement routing" of eastbound lumber ship ments lo speed the flow of cars, K. C. Batchclder, traffic manager of the association, said. Normally, a freight car of lum ber moves east to Chicago in eight days, fiatcheldcr explained. But some shippers, by arrangement with the rirtlroads, were taking 17 days to move the lumber east, permitting them to bargain for pre mium prices. An associated committee, head ed by B. L. Nutting, Medford, ask ed the railroads to eliminate the practice, pointing out that faster movement ofiluniber would aid the national defense program. Batchclder said Oregon and nor thern California lumber mills re ceived only 53 percent of need ed freight cars for the week end ing July 29th. Some southern Oregon mills were forced to lay off crews be cause lumber was piling up on their shipping docks.

Ultra -Violet Light Slqted At Exhibit One of the most spectacular dis plays listed for the Rock and Min eral show, to be held at the Rose- burg junior high Friday, Saturday and Sunday, will be the ultra, vio let light display. Ultra-violet light is a light that is shorter, in wave length, than white or colored light, and is in visible to the average natural eye. Special lamps have been designed that give a small amount of visible violet light and a large amount ot invisible ultra-violet. Certain minerals absorb some of the invisible light, change its wave length, and reradiate it in colors visible to the eye. This pro perty is known as flourscence. These flourescent colors, usual ly different than the object's nat ural color, have an unusual char acteristic in- that they are "live" colors, similar to the luminous watch faces. In minerals, these colors range from the delicate shimmering pinks of some calcite crystals, through blues, greens, yellows, and crimsons, to the violently brilliant scarlet and green mix ture of Fianklinile. Some of the deeper red calcites seem almost too hot to touch, for they glow like live embers. Always a very popular, color ful display, a large selection of flourescent minerals will be shown free of charge at the Rock and Mineral show, sponsored by the Umpqua Mineral club.
