By MABEL WARNER RUGG. THE .romance of the big woods has attracted many a red blooded American into the lum ber business. From the "huskies" of the logging camp in its primitive state, to the "kings" of the distributing industry, the lumber men are outstandingly motive in type. I hey should be, too, for theirs is a driving sort of busi ness, where kinetic energy, and lots of it, is needed for success. The lumberindustry divids itself into two large pnascs, procucuon and distribution, and the distribution into wholesale and retail., 1 have conferred with several leaders in the business in Omaha and all agree that here is a vocation where keen, practical sense will take tha phce of much book education. They cite the case of the "king-pii1." of the game, the multimillionaire, Dollar, who started from nothing, with precious little schooling, and today is the biggest importer of lumber in thii country. How to Get tr Top. "First get a job in a lumber yard. unloading," is the advice of one extcutive in Omaha, who has risen f.-c-m the ranks. "Gi'l that your primer, or tirst-reader in the study of wood, the grain and quality. Next get a tallier's job, so you can get at your finger-tips the grain and (;iwlity of all the woods handled in that yard. Next get a foremanship, you can get starred into the of f'te end of it, a:i l r.i.;t a manager ship in a cotintr" yard, where you i if' finish yourself, i.i the executive training, selling, bo-k-work, and the handling of peoslt; of all classes.'' There is interesting variety in tne lumber work. If you are motive type and this 'ocation attracts you, choose either the production or dis tribution end of the game, and work. If you fancy producing, get into a logging camp and master the products put out there. Then von can grow into selling that mill's , . woous to ine wnoiesaiers. it you prefer distribution, follow the "ad vice of the Omaha lumberman and get into a lumber yard. Do not expect fancy salaries to be gin with in the lumber game. But do exocct a substantial reward when you have thoroughly learned 'the business. Lumber is no fly-by-night vocation, such as too many young Americans have learned to 'look lor. It has a solid toundation and it is a vocation offering splendid possibil ities in tins present reconstruction! period. Answers to durations.
