by H. G. Bohlssen, president ot the club and representing the H. G. 

 Bohlssen Manufacturing Company or Ewing, Tex., calling upon the mem- 

 bers to hold their next meeting at Houston, Tex. The argument, as in the 

 case ot Mohammed and the mountain, that, if the Texans could not come 

 to the clob meeting, then the club meeting should be taken to the Texans, 

 prevailed ; and President Bohlssen. upon assuring the club that he would 

 see to it that the Lone Star contingent, non-members as well as members, 

 would turn out in full force and that the matter ot clul. afflliatiou would 

 be placed squarely before them, carried his motion unanimously. The 

 meeting date was also changed from the second Wednesday to the third 

 Wednesday and will, therefore, be hold at the Bender Hotel, Houston, on 

 May 17, the change of date being made to suit the convenience of a num- 

 ber of prominent members who had other engagements for the usual meet- 

 ing time. 



The trend ot discussions with respect to the subject of inspection, which 

 was lead by C. H. Sherrill, Sherrill Hardwood Lumber Company, New 

 Orleans, was preponderant for the retention by the manufacturers ot their 

 own inspection seriice and passing encomiums by various speakers upon 

 the merits of the service maintained by the American Hardwood Manufac- 

 turers' Association met with hearty applause from the floor ot the meeting. 



With W. Brown Morgan, S. T. Alcus & Co., New Orleans, as the princi- 

 pal speaker, the delegates took up a proposition of the National Associa- 

 tion of Box Manufacturers for the promotion ot the use ot lumber over 

 paper material for the manufacture of boxes. The club by vote instructed 

 Secretary George Schaad, Jr., to comply with the request contained in a 

 letter he had read from the box association for it to send to members 

 ot the club stickers urging the advantage of wood over paper in boxes.
