Wood for Use in
Ain> lanes.
The sesonhous of the Standard
S- »oning society at Latham is now
nearly filled with 6x16 and 6x18
timbers which are to be used in
bridge building. Thia is the first
’¡me that the house has been filled
with timbers of this sis*. The load
on a set of bangers is several tons
but the structure is so sturdy that
the heavy load is earriod without
any danger. The time reqnired to
»«son a timber is approximately 30
days for each inch of thickness, but
tho ratio is cut down as the tim-
ber increases in thiekness, so that
to thoroughly seson
these
big
sticks would require about five
months. Whether or not they will
be left in the sesoning slots for
that length of time has not been
decided.
Interest in air sesoning brought
a detail of officers from the air­
plane division of the army here a
week or two ago. The government
contemplates »canning’Bitka spruce
and Port Oxford cedar, the only
two woods suitable for airplane use
nnd found only on the west coast.
There is fear in army circles that
these woods may be cut and used for
other purposes and there is a dis­
position to bny up a large supply
and warehouse it for future use.
The officers were
greatly im­
pressed by what they saw of the
sesoning art and wanted a seson-
hou» right away. Their wishes can
not be complied with immediately,
however. The fact that sesoning
increase» the tensile strength of
wood was a big point with the
army officers.
Senior Class Play Friday
Members of This Year's Clara Will
Present Three Act Comedy
of Modern Times.
"Cyclone Sally,” senior class
play, will be given Friday night
at the Arcade. The play is a
three-act comedy of modern times
and has its setting on a big estate
near the small town of Cedar
Point. The comedy is full of amus-
ing situations, the lines are good
and interest is sustained through­
out the production.
The setting for all three acts is
the living room of the Webster
estate. Act I takes place in the
late afternoon of an early fall,
act II at dusk about a week later
and act HI in the late afternoon
about a week afterwards.
The cast follows: Jack Webster,
owner of the Webster estate, Harry
Metcalf; Reggie Manners, a young
Englishman, an adept at plucking
peaches, Harold Bede; Jim Jerkins,
has courted for 20 years but is not
yet discouraged, Irwin Small; Wil­
lie Clump, Sue Bascom’s beau and
the world’s eighth wonder, Donald
Metcalf; Sally Graham, "Cyclone
Sally,”

Kem;
Jenny
Thatcher, forty and the object of
Jim’s affection, Lola Godard; Ruth
Thatcher, a peach Reggie would
like to pluck, Margaret Doss; Effie
Varden, a cute v little neighbor,
Irene Griggs; Vivian Vernon, tho
belle of Cedar Point, Rachel Gallo­
way.
Iva Wood Brune is directing the
play.
Barefaced Mendacity,
"A gentleman called me hand-

think it is sinful of me to feel a
little proud of the compliment^”
"Not at all, ma’am,” replied the
minister, "It’s the gentleman who
is the sinnor, not you.”—United
