Dear Sammy Be good to the wife
and kid and never forget the good
things of the old days. I am sure the
same fate awaits Hebrew and gentile
and that we shall see each other some
where, somehow. Goodbye, old scout."

lowing months during which orders
were filled on a day-to-day basis,
with production markedly in excess
of demand, the Bend pine mills in
their September business felt the
pendulum slowly swinging In. the
other direction. It was the first
month in a year's time In which ship
ments have equaled production. Now
mill officials have become so confi
dent that the future will strengthen
the market that they have declined to
book orders for more than a month or
six weeks In advance, except in cer
tain classes of factory stock.
Intimations of Increased production
at the Shevlln-Hlxon company mill
have been given by General Manager
Hennessy, who declared his belief
that in February he will be able to
make a definite announcement regard
ing adding of a second shift. Fears of
a mid-winter shutdown or layoff
which had been entertained earlier In
the season have been abandoned at
both the Brooks-Scanlon and the
Shevlin-HIxon mills.
Inquiries which may be taken as
the basis of future orders are show
ing a marked Increase and are re
garded as especially encouraging.
