FOREST CLUB MEETINGS 



1914-1915 



Owing largely to the uncertainty of the conditions in the lumber 

 industry this year a number of the speakers on the program could not 

 appear on the scheduled date, and Messrs. T. E. Ripley, Alex Poulsen, J. 

 P. Van Orsdale, and J. D. Young have thus far been unable to appear. 

 All of these men have agreed, however, to be with us at another time, and 

 we hope that we may still hear from some of them before the close of the 

 year. 



In addition to those regularly scheduled on the program, we had the 

 pleasure of hearing from Mr. R. W. Douglas, a former president of the 

 Short Course class and since then Executive Secretary of the Washington 

 Conservation Association, and also of the State Conservation Commission, 

 under appointment of Gov. Hay. 



Following is the Program for 1914-15 and the men who spoke to 

 the Club:

 year's work.
