Training Your Dog
Dogs Resist 'Down!'
But Patience Wins
United Pru Inttrnitlonil
Even tlie smartest dug in Iho
world is really a very simple
minded creature. His major goals
in Ufa arc to cat, sleep and, nhovc
all, to please the person he loves
most.
If, because of the lack of train
ing and consistent discipline, he
doesn't really know how to please,
he will oiiiekly become unhappy
and disturlied. He'll act up to f.:in
attention. He'll be nervous or shy
around strangers.
On the other hand, the dog that
Is taught in the right way to un
dersiand and obey his master is
well-adjusted and content. Sincero
rOuse and a pat on the head when
ne responds correctly 10 a com
mand build his self-confidence.
His good behavior makes his re
lationship wilh his owner an easy,
companionable one. To promote
this rewarding pet-owner relation
ship, the I'ct Food Institute and
thousands of serious dog fanciers
strongly advocate basic obedience
training for every family pet.
When your dog has mastered the
commands to heel and sit, lie Is
ready for the next command,
"Down." This means he will lie
down and remain in this position
until he is told he can get up.
You begin (his lesson by com
manding your dog to sit. Now, you
drop down on your Ictt knee be
side your dog. Gripping the leash
close lo Iho collar, you jerk the
leash firmly downward and re
peat, "Down."
Many dogs will resist this les
son. They think it's beneath their
dignity, i'atience and firmness arc,
needed to overcome this reluct
ance. Praise your dog warmly
when he obeys. Tell him, "No,"
in a disapproving, but not harsh,
way g hen he disobeys.
Training Tip? Knd every 10 to
15 minute lesson on a note of Im
provement. If your dog has dif
ficulty learning ft command, let
him review the ones he docs well.

The Paul B. Hult Lumber Co., of
Dillard is operating with increased
efficiency of its mill since under
going a plant modernization and
expansion.
New equipment installed includ
ed a 400-horsepower steam boiler
to provide heat for a new Moore
dry kiln, a 50-inch Nicholson me
chanical log barker and a waste
wood chipper. -
The dry kiln is capable of han
dling 140,000 board feet of lumber
during a period of from 74 to 102
hours, approximately a four-day cy
cle. Since installation of the kiln the
former capacity of one million feet
has shown an increase in its out
put of l'i million feet per month.
Building Big
The building housing the kiln is
89 feet long and 34 feet wide and
is the most modern type available.
It is erected over a steel structure
with side walls of aluminum pre
fabricated panels.
All species of lumber may be
dried in the kiln. However, at the
present time, only two types, hem
lock and fir, are being dried, the
latter by special order only.
Loading and unloading ts accom
plished in 30 minutes time by the
use of 'kiln cars pushed in and
pulled out of the kiln by cables.
Logs are transferred into the
new 50-inch ring-type barker by
chains after they have been placed
on the log deck by a log stacker.
Bark Removed
The bark is removed after en
tering a rotating ring 'container
with "scrubber bars," which are
controlled by a single operator.
Upon leaving the ring, the logs are
cut to length, which was formerly
done in the pond. Then they are
sent on to . the sawyer.
The debarking of logs not only
saves time and wear on the saws,
it also insures a cleaner mill by
being rid of dirt and rocks em
bedeed in the bark. This method
Ring. Type Log Barker Also
Has Upped Capacity At Mill
has also increased planer produc
tion by 500 feet an hour on the
average.
Future plans of the mill include
the possibility of producing garden
mulch from the bark.
The barker is designed to debark
an adequate supply of logs during
the day shift so only a four-hour
period of debarking is necessary
during the night shut.
The newly-installed chipper blows
the chips through 1,600 feet of 8-
inch pipe at the rate of 80 mites
per hour. The pipe is extended
under part of the sawmill, through
the stacker building, over the dry
shed attached to the . kiln and
through the boiler room. Then the
pipe is suspended in the air over
Highway 99 UK to the railroad
tracks in Dillard, where the chips
then flow into the cars on the
tracks.
The three cars filled daily with
20 to 30 units per car are then
shipped to Lebanon (hemlock
chips; and Camas, Wash., (fir
chips). Utilization of the waste
wood for conversion to pulp and
paper is made by Crown Zeller
bach Inc., who has contracted with
the firm for purchase of all wood
and chip production.
Stacker Monstroous .
The stacker was pioneered by
R. C. Letorneau of Austin, Tex.,
and has a 275-horsepower engine.
The controls are all switches oper
ated by one man. This giant ma-l
cnine wiui .eiecmc muiur in eai-u
wheel is capable of picking up
70,000 pounds, or 35 tons, of logs at
one bite.
The firm, a partnership of Paul
B. Hult and W. O. (Bun) Kelsay,
hires approximately 100 employees
for the two nine-hour shifts and
ships lumber to all parts of the
world. Provisions have been made
for the possibility of cutting peeler
blocks in the future.
Present plans are to drain the
pond, leaving a smaller pond for
emergency use of oversized logs.
The filled in portion will be leveled
off to be used for log storage.

Distorted Rail May
Have Caused Crash
DIJON, France (UPI) - The
train wreck which killed 38 nel
sons and Injured 47 near here
Monday may have been caused
by a rail distorted by summer
heat, it was reported today.
Egnincer Michel Bosson said he
sensed an "abnormality" in the
track seconds before the crash.
Investigating technicians said the
wreck may have been caused by
a rail "deformed" by the sun
which has been baking the rail
line for several days.
A spokesman for the manage
ment of the nationalized French
railways confirmed that the dis
torted-rail report is "one of the
theories we are investigating.
Five cars of th 85-mile-an-hour
Paris - to Marseille Express
jumped the track, and one of
them plunged 150 feet off a via
duct into a rocky ravine. The
dead and most of the seriously
wounded were in that car.
Biologists Study
Sea Life Deaths
ABERDEEN (UPI) Thousands
of dead razor clams, crabs and
bottom fish were found Tuesday
littered along a stretch of Pacific
Ocean beach near here.
The mysterious marine deaths
were in about a two and one-half
mile section of beach anproxi-
! mutely 50 miles from here and
between the mouth of the Raft
River and Queets.
So far no one is certain what
caused the mass deaths' of the
fish and shellfish. Similar plagues
hit Washington coastal waters in
1954 and 1959.

College Students Offer Advice
To JFK About Speech Gestures
By DICK WEST
United Press International
WASHINGTON (UPD-Back in
May a couple of North Carolina
State College students made a trip
here to offer President Kennedy
some advice on how to improve
his forensic style.
The students, Edwin S. Cam and
Stanley W. Mason Jr., said they
had made a three-month study of
the President's platform manner
and found that he was woefully
short of forceful gestures.
For the most part, they said,
the President limited himself to
'the fish-stabbing movement with
finger extended and the downward
chopping motion with the open
hand."
They reasoned that his speeches
and public statements would be
far more effective if he would ex
pand the range of his gesticula
tions. Toward that end, they pre
sented to Commerce Secretary Lu
ther H. Hodges, for transmittal
to the White House, 10 placards
illustrated with arm and hand
movements recommended for Ken
nedy's use.
Thought Youths Presumptuous
When I first read about their
mission. I had feeling that the
youths, one of whom was only a
freshman, were perhaps Demg a
mite presumptuous in appointing
themselves as presidential eleocu
tion advisers. But in the light of
subsequent events, I am beginning
to think that maybe they were
prophets in disguise.
As everyone Knows, the presi
dent's legislative program has been
taking a beating in Congress late
ly. And. at the same time, the
public opinion polls indicate that
his popularity rating has slipped.
Can this be because ne isn i
getting his message across to
Congress and the people? And can
that be because his gestures are
faulty?
Seeking an answer to these
questions, I tuned in Monday on
the President's televised news
conference and carefully made
notes on the gestures he em
ployed. Disagrees With Students
It was my observation that the
President Is not as devoted to the
fish-stab and chop as the Macon
Cain study indicated. His most
commonly used gesture is what
I would classify as "the tweak."
It is accomplished by putting
the thumb and forefinger together
and giving a little tweaking mo
tion. No speaker could stab a fish
with that gesture, except possibly
a red herring.
The President also made use of
what is known in oratorical circles
as "the swizzle stick spin." Here
the forefinger is pointed downard
and revolved, as though stirring
the ice in a highball glass.
I noted that Kennedy occasion
ally emerged from a Swizzle stick
spin with a sort of backhand flip.
Other mannerisms, more or less
self - explanatory, included "the
windshield wiper swipe" and "the
forefinger palm punch."
My observations led me to con
clude that the President could
profit from a few rostrum-pounding
and arm-whirling lessons.
Gestures . like he uses would
never persuade a high fee shin
bone specialist to campaign for
medicare.
Mother To Gree?
Son Thought Dead
SHELTON (UPI)- Mrs. Berta
