Boulter P.O., Ont. Canadian Lumber Canada's position in the lumber market of the world today is pre- eminent, owing to the fact all her pre-war competitors are obliged to use their lumber for reconstruction at home. The demand for Cana- dian lumber in Britain is unlimited, and will be for years, but Canadian exporters have been warned to keep the excellent reputation they won during the war. SIMPLE, BUT EFFECTIVE What Is Wasted In Cutting Tree For Industries? Motorists, forced to stop along the roadside at night, may be saved from death or injury by the skull-shaped, device seen above. The new gadget ia carried folded up in the car. Its warning signal Is said to be visible 350 yardi in either direction. SPOTS OF SPORTS Bf FRANK MANN HARRIS - ("A Six Bit Critic") • During the recent highly-publi- cized squabble between the race- track operators and the horsemen, a spokesman for the Ontario Jockey Club tried to lift the matter above the sordid levels of commercialism, stating that the priscipal aim of the august body he represented was "to improve the breed of Thorough- bred horses" or words to that gen- eral effect Our personal reaction was that somebody should take the gentleman quietly aside and tip him off that, to modern ears, that par- ticular record sounds badly scratch- ed and should be tossed into the discard bin. We almost expected him to dig up the ancient one about the necessity of racing in order that our Cavalry troops might be assur- ed an adequate supply of remounts â€" which always used to be fished out and dusted off when the racing racket was under fire in davs gone by * » « For by this time everybody over the mental age of ten knows very well that horse-racing exists for just tvio reasons. The first and principal of these is to make money; asd the second, to give a lot of folks who already have plenty of money a chance to cop a gob of personal publicity. There are, of course, those who solemnly profess to love the noble Thoroughbred solely for his noble self. But somehow or other, whenever zve hear such state- ments we always find ourselves reaching for the salt. For if there •â-  wasn't any racing, we very greatly doubt that many of these ardent horse-lovers would be found keep- ing a Thoroughbred just as a pet. « « 4> Why, for that matter, should they? Off a racing strip the Thor- oughbred is just about the most use- less form of animal life you'll run across, requiring as much care and attention as a year-old baby and â€" nine times out of ten â€" without as much sense. A greater amount of downright drivel, both prose and poetry, has probably been written regarding the horse than on any subject with the possible exception of Love. Stripped of all the glam- our and flossy verbiage, the Thor- oughbred race-horse alwaj's has been â€" is â€" and always will be at bottom a tool for gambling. * ♦ * As for the "improvement of the breed" tve hear so much about, zvhat of it! If they ever did breed a horse that could run a mile and a quar- ter in two minutes flat, he would be a great cnriosi;y. S^o zvould a LIFE can Be^in AFTER40t//. Around 40 our energ7 lessens. But, ex- perience has taught us to do our work with lesi effort. The years (head should yield the greatest accomplishmenis, the most enjoyment and happiness. They can, too, if we avoid the kidney and bladder disorders such as Back- ache, Headache, Rheumatic Pains, Lassitude, Loss of Sleep and Energy which so often attack those around 40. For orer half a century Dodd's Kidney Pills hare been helping men and women to keep kidneys and bladder in good order. If you are Hearing 40, or past it, for the sake of your health and a happier future use Dodd's Kidney Pills todayl I2i pair of crap diet made of first-wa- ter diamonds. But for all practical purposes, a pair made of ordinary ivory or plastic are just as good. « * • ' All of which no doubt sounds like the wail of a sore loser, and ai though we were suffering from an isgrowing grouch at the sport of horse racing. This, we protest, ii by no means the case. We have per- sonally had more fun and excite- ment at various race-tracks than anj'where else we can recaU. But we are under no illusions as to why we enjoy the game. In the past we have written many times about the Olympic Games, and z^hat fomentors of international dis- agreenteitt and ill-zvill they have al- zi'ays proved to be. But it remain- ed for the coming oneâ€" that of 1948 â€" to set a new record along thes* lines. With more -than a year to go before it opens its doors, the com- ing Olympic revival â€" by means of the Barbara Ann Scott incident â€" has stirred up more hard feelings throughout Canada against our friends south of the border than anything else could possibly do. « « « So why not lend a hand to the movement, already gathering strength, aimed at calling the whole silly business off? Instead of ship- ping an assortment of our athletes and â€" of course â€" their accompany- isg horde of beribboned officials over to London, let's spend the money to send the people of those hard-pressed Islands something they could use to better advantage. Almost anv-thing would do. While most people supposed the lumber industry already wa« using everything about a tree except the breeze that blows through itâ€" wit- ness the uses to which sawdust is put â€" two thirds of a tree cut for lumber is wasted. So the United States Department of Commerce states. The Depart- ment recommends improved meth- ods in logging and sawmilling, more use of wood pulp in lamination, plastics, pressed products, modified wood, alcohol, wood sugar, and lignin products. And as another step to reduce waste, it recommend* conversion of single-product indua- tries to multiple-product industries â€" much, it seems, as the packing in- dustry has branched out to make use of by-products. What is wasted in a tree? The tops, limbs, high sturrtps, unmer- chantable logs, sawdust (some- times), slabs, edgings, and other refuse, according to this report. It is no news to anyone that lum- ber has skyrocketed since 1939. The Real Estate Boards, again quoting the Department of Commerce, leta down the figures. The amount o! lumber you could purchase for 35 cents then, it says, costs around $1 now. And a house that could be built for $1,000 worth of lumber ia 1939 would have a $2,328 bill for lumber, supposing it were built in February of this year. ^^^ CIGARETK PAPERS Famous Pn-Wcr Quality Th» only Cgarslte Pap«r MADE IN FRANCE on sale In Canada BLUE COVER PURE WHITE verI Fret Burning Double ftook Automatic 100 Leave* For EASY ROLUNG use a ZIG-ZAG 25^ CIGARETTE ROLLER ISSUE 21â€"1947 For constant Smoking Pleasure :export" Cigarette Tobacco MUTT AND JEFFâ€" Jeff Got A Bargain Any Way You Look At It
