  • THE Labor and Refreshment There is something fine in hard, physical labor, straight ahead; no brain used, just muscles. I stood ankle-deep in the cool water; every spadeful came out with a smack, and as I turned it over at the edge of the ditch, small turbid rivulets coursed back again. I did not think of anything in particular. I dug. A peculiar joy attends the very pull of the muscles. I drove the spade home with one foot, then bent and lifted and turned with a sort of physical satisfaction difficult to describe. At first I had the cool of the morning, but by seven o'clock the day was hot enough! I opened the breast of my shirt, gave my sleeves another roll, and went at it again for another half hour, until I dripped with perspiration. "I will knock off," I said, so I used my spade as a ladder and climbed out of the ditch. Being thirsty, I walked down through the marsh valley to the clump of alders which grows along the creek. I followed a cow path through the thicket and came to the creek side, where I knelt on a log and took a good, long drink. Then I soused my head in the cool stream, dashed the water upon my arms and came up dripping and gasping. Oh, but it was fine! So I came back to the hawthorn tree, where I sat down comfortably and stretched my legs. There is a poem in stretched legs—after hard digging— but I can't write it, though I can feel it! I got my bag and took out a half loaf of bread. Breaking off big crude pieces, I ate it there in the shade. How rarely we taste the real taste of bread! We disguise it with butter, we toast it, we eat it wih milk or fruit. We even soak it in gravy (here in the country where we aren't at all polite, but very comfortable), so that we never get the downright delicious taste of the bread itself.— From "Adventures in Contentment," by David Grayson. BARK More Wood Used in Offices The increase in the use of hardwoods during the past year for desks and office furniture has been 2.6 per cent., while there has been a decrease of 8.8 per cent, in the use of fibre and other substitutes for wood for the same purpose, it was pointed out by speakers at a session of the Appalachian Hardwood Club at Cincinnati, May 21. Through the activity of the Oak Service Bureau maintained by the Hardwood Manufacturers Institute, it was reported by J. H. Townsend, executive vice president, there has been a revival in the use of oak for furniture and that new and more attractive finishes are being utilized. From the standpoint of interest and the attendance of lumbermen from the Northern and Southern District of the Appalachian region, the conference was the most important in the history of the Appalachian Hardwood Club, says a report by the Cincinnati Enquirer. A feature of the meeting was the exhibit of office and home furniture in chestnut, sound wormy chestnut, and white oak by two Cincinnati firms. There were also exhibited six beautiful panels showing Appalachian oak flooring. "Should an Edgerman Keep Out of the Bark?" This is the title of an article in a recent issue of The Lumber Worker. The article was called to our attention by a man who marked "No" beside the title and sent it addressed to the Hardwood Bark. It is observed at sea that men are never so much disposed to grumble and mutiny as when least employed. Hence an old captain, when there was nothing else to do, would issue the order to "scour the anchor." —Samuel Smiles. PUT AND TAKE There used to be a game called "Put and Take". It has since gone the way of most fads. However in all businesses this great game still goes on. Whenever men are organized for profit and mutual welfare there must be a lot of putting in if there is going to be any taking out. Some workers, (thank Heavens they are few in number) seem to feel that raises in wages can be made and all sorts of fine conditions provided for them in excess of what most businesses allow without any extra effort being put forth on their part. They seem to feel that profits just come out of the air. They are somewhat like the little girl who was asking her daddy for money. Daddy was temporarily financially embarrassed and told the daughter so. However, she persisted with the remark: "But daddy, you have lots of checks". Checks are useless when there is no money in the bank, and excessive wages cannot be paid except where excessive values are being put in. In other words, if American workers expect to take more out of the bag of industry they must put something more in. There is no use killing the goose that lays the golden eggs by giving less in value than one is receiving. In order to take something out of a bag one must put something in. Put and Take is a fine game if it doesn't run too much to Take.—Dr. John Edwin Price. Eleven
