"NO TRESPASS HERE"
Recently The Journal called attention to those happy
and carefree family picnic parties who light on the pret-
ty spots of nature by the way and fly away leaving a
mess that is far from enticing to the next comer. Now
complaints begin to come in from owners of these pleas-
ant spots who find their grounds defiled, their trees hack-
ed up and the beauty marred by campers who have as-
sumed tempo'ary ownership of the land for all purposes
except paying the taxes.
While most land owners offer no objection to camp-
ers and pleasure seekers the wanton abuse of their good
nature will in time result in greatly restricting the prlw-
leges along the highways,, and auto parties will find in
increasing numbers the sgns "No trespass here." Of
course those who own these spots sometimes like to go
there themselves for a day or a longer stay, otherwise
they would not care to own and pay taxes on the proper-
ty, and visitors should always do as little damage as pos-
sible as well as clean up their camps.
The complaint comes largely from the Navy Yard
highway which is now heavily travelled by Bremerton
people as well as from Seattle and unless the visitors
mend their ways they are likely to find less free privi-
leges, and be required to pay for a place to camp or else
move on to the public camp grounds which are being
laid out on the highways and are under some super-
vision.
Do you ,appreciate what a "ready
to serve" organization means.
It usually represents the woYk,
experience anti saving of years'of
one or more individuals.
Take a newspaper as an ilustra-
tion. Too often its value to a town
is underestimated by the leading •citi-
zens o1' the community.
Yet the deadest town in the world
in the one without a newspaper.
The newspaper is called upon to
support every little public move-
ment "free of charge." It must help
the church, it must lead the ay for
civic improvements anti it must pio-
neer for all manner of new develop-
ment enterprises.
When the good work has been clone

Good times and bad, the paper
must come out. Merchants threaten TIMBER FOR SALE
2,800,000 feet of fir timber and
to discontinue advertising if neces-
sar.v rate increases are made. Sub-
scribers threaten to stop subscrip-
tions if its policies do not agree with
theirs.
But sooner or later every citizen in
the community must have the ser-
vices of the newspaper for 'some
purpose or other. Little do they
consider the trials of the average
country editor in maintaining a
"ready to nerve" institution that is
sehlom thanked for the public good
it is constantly doing, that is often
cussed for no just cause, but that
always comes out on schedule and is
"ready to serve" in its field, al-
though the requirements of the indi-
vidual asking the service may come
ten years apart.--The Manufacturer.

LINGO OF THE LOGGER !
Did .you ever see a lo "lucked"?
Did you ever ask a "bull f the
woods" for a job?
Hundreds of residents on txe Coast
do not know what these expressions
mean. They do not understand the
distinctive language of the men who
toil in the great woods. If the Fay
West has a language apm:t from the
rest of the country 4t,is the ex-"
pressions used in the leding indus-
try of the .section.
Loggers never cut down a tree,
twh:rY k "fl:nit I and ",f, allers" do the
" . buckers take the tree
and "buck" logs, which means cut-
tSng the tree into log lengths. A
th:Olk-tgendr thop,:;,a(a:Ige ?bout.
The donkey is a stionary engine
operating, a cable on its drum. A
"chaser" follows the log to see that
it reaches its destination safely, a
"swamper" keeps the road clear, a
"sniper" cuts off the sharp edges of
logs so they will drag easier, and a
"whistle punk" gives the signals from
the whistle of the donkey engine.
All these operations are directed
by the "bull of the woods," who is
the foreman of operations. The "high
climber" is the workman who climbs
up the "mast" and places "high
lines," or cables. A "choker" is the
line around the log, a "skid" is a
plce whel.e logs are allowed to slide
of their own weight, and a skid
greaser" keeps the skid road covered
with grease so, logs will move readily.
Loggers have equally pi'cturesque
terms in their cook and bunk houses.
A "bull cook" gets in wood and oth-
erwise assists the head cook, and a
"flunkey" waits on tables. "Tin
pants" are the shrt trousers, covered
with paraffin, that loggers wear.
They are waterproof, though quite
g p --- , re evy
shoes whose soles are. covered with
hob nails so that loggers will not
slip when climbing about 'on et logs.
In a sawmill the"sawyer" directs
the sawing of the logs mto lumber.
A "setter" rides the great logs into
the saws and manipulates the ma-
chinery that determines the Width
of the cut. A "cant" is an inside
cut from a log. "Dogs" hold the
log firmly while it is being carried
into the saws.
On the Coast "sawyers" and "set-
te[s" have a distinctive wa.v of sig-
naling each other so that orders may
be understood despite the noise o
the mill. A score signals have been
worked out and adopted up and down
the Coast. For instance, a thumb
down means turn the log over and
400 piles, on the water of Hood Can-

because the organized labor of that day oppose any
work which would be in competition with free labor and
tend to hold down wages. Now the state plans to have

. WHY LUMBERING LAGS
The lumbering industry is suffering as much or more
from high wage scales as from high freight rates.
High wages in the building trades, efforts to main-
tain the war scale, prevents normal return to building
operations:
The housing shortage is still rated at a million dwel-
lings that should be built and are not built becatse of
wage profiteering.
If four houses were going up where one is being built
it would soon put the lumber industry, on its feet.
The price of lumber has deprecmted 65 per cent,
wages in the mills and logging camps are down, but
building wages stay high.' '
Wages. in lumberir/g are down 35 per cent but no
c0rrespondmg cut has been made in building trade wages
controlled by unions•
