Lumber Conditions Bright
. There has been no letting up
in the demands for lumber prod
ucts from the mills of the North
west during the past week. The
boom in buying that started in
earnest -more than a month ago
has continued and the last report
of the West Coast Lumbermen's
association showed that produc
tion was one per cent above nor
mal. Demands have exceeded
production and the mills now
have orders booked that wil
keep their wheels turning for i
protracted period. Many mills
are refusing to accept orders now
on me grounds mat mey Have
nil that they can possibly take
care of for a long time. So insis
tent have been the buyers for im
mediate deliveries to meet build
ing and construction rcmiire
meiHs that the lumber mills find
it impossible to replenish yard
stocks. As soon ns the lumber
comes from the saws it finds de
mands that take it aboard cars
for shipment to ports for oxpor
tation or to normal centers of
trade. Tho Atlantic coast is now
a great purchasing district. A
building campaign seems to be
in full swing. Southern mills
find it impossible to sunnlv the
urgent demands and tho mills of
the Northwest are profiting as n
result. With tho revival of man
ufacturing there has been 'an in
creased demand for fuctory ma
terials, Also there has been some
demand for tho common grades
of lumbor that go into crating
ana nox materials. Homo time
ago there was very little demand
for common grades of lumber.
The agricultural districts and
tho manufacturing centers were
not buying. Now there has
come a better feeling among tho
f arni(rs,prospccts ;f or good wheat
prices are seemingly certain and
building programs are being re
sumed. California still keeps up
with its great lumber demands
nnd each week largo cargoes go
by rail and boat to tho markets
of San Francisco and Los Angel
es for distribution to other im
portant points in the state. Ore-gouian.

The St. Johns Chautauqua
The Chautauqua season of
1922 is an important one in the
history of the Ellison-White Ly
ceum and Chautauqua Associa
tion, as it is the tenth anniversa
ry of the establishing of their
Chautauqua business in the west.
To build a program which would
fittingly celebrate this happy
event was evidently in the mind
of the Ellison-White management
when the program for the com
ing season was arranged. The
dates for the St. Johns Chautau
qua have been definitely set for
June 30th to July Gt It.
Heading the lecture list is Opic
Read, n prominent platformist
whom the Ellison-White pcopl
have been trying for the past ft v
years to secure for a tour of
their Western Chautauuuas
Opie Read is like no one else in
tho world. Perhaps you have en
joyed his books, been stirred by
his plays, but unless you have sat
within the sound of his voice am
heard from his own lins th
quaint tales that originate in his
brain, you do not fully apprcci
nte the splendid genius of the
man.
The sixth night of the Chautau
qua will be one of tho most im
portant of the entire series. On
that night comes Dr. Elmer Lynn
Williams, "fighting" parson" of
Ch'cago, in his famous lecture.

gammers and dive Keepers on
Chicago's famous "north side
know and hate Dr. Elmer Lynn
wiliams. They hate him be
cause he is one ot the hitterest
foes graft and corruption ever
had. in his fight in clearing up
vice and crime in Chicago's loon
district, ho was given the name
of "fighting parson." Dr. Wil
liams was formerly pastor of
one of the largest churches in
Chicago and comes to Chautau
qua, at the height of his oratorial
lower with a message that is
vigorous and vital.
Other prominent names found
in the list of lectures are: Nor

When you buy merchandise
there is great satisfaction in
knowing that you have received
good value for your money. Hut
the satisfaction is greater when
you know in advance that the
value is going to he good. That
is what happens when you trade
at local stores, where the dealers
have good reputations to main
tain and where they do maintain
them by selling only good goods
at fair prices. When you buy
from strangers you are very apt
to receive mediocre value at the
price of better. For your own
protection buy where reputation
counts at home. There is an
old saying that "Those who
dance must pay the fiddler." The
same thought applies to other
things as well. For example, we
have a homelike commuuttv
which we all appreciate and en
joy. Hut what would happen to
our pleasant community if we
all stopped replenishing the fund
out ol which the expense of up
keep is taken f Our community
would soon go to rack and ruin
so that we should he ashamed to
call it our own. When you want
a thing in a hurry you rush to a
local store and got it. Hut do
you realize that the existence of
our stores depends niton contiu
ued business f If every person in
this community were to use the
stores only for emergencies il.ere
would soon be no more places to
sat is l y those urgent needs. ou
should do your part toward keep
ing local business alive and in a
constant state of betterment by
doing an your trailing ai home.
It will bo prolitable to you as
well as to the entire community.
