REGISTRATION CALL FOR WOMEN TO AID IN WAR. 8T0LL-SCHARMANN WEDDING AT BRIDE'S PRETTY HOME A Sermon On Lumber Inconclusion my friends, we cari't get away from this lumber question. Why, every one of us spent our first days in a cradle made of lumber. Our lives have been lived between walls of two by fours and lath, with rafters over our heads, and matched flooring beneath our feet. We have been sitting in wooden chairs, eating from wooden tables, riding in wooden wagons, and in the course of time will be laid to rest in wooden caskets. Lumber Is King In tits Ceastraction World.
