THREE principal events marked December for the For- 

 estry Club of the College of Forestry. 



On Wednesday evening, the 10th, the club gave a 

 dancing party in the new engineering building on the campus. 

 There were just enough couples to insure a really good time. 

 Mr. and Mrs. Dillon P. Tierney chaperoned. 



On Monday evening, December 15, the Dramatic Club of 

 the university produced "A Pair of Spectacles" in the agri- 

 cultural chapel, under the Forestry Club's auspices. A neat 

 sum rewarded the work of the committee in charge, which 

 will be devoted to the purposes of the club. 



Semi-annual election of officers occurred at a special meet- 

 ing December 15th. Geo. C. Lindeberg was elected president, 

 Frank Dunn vice president, and Oscar S. Johnson secretary. 

 The new officers assume their duties next semester. The 

 present treasurer, S. A. Graham, holds over for the entire 

 year. 



The seniors will be absent in January on an inspection 

 trip, really a month's work at hard labor, in the Northern 

 lumber camps. From the information gained, each one will 

 write a report on lumbering costs and conditions. This an- 

 nual absence of the seniors, and the exodus of the juniors in 

 April, depletes the members of the club considerably twice 

 a year. Nevertheless, the under-classmen will maintain an 

 active interest in the club and keep it going. 



The forest service collected 40,000 pounds of tree seed last year 

 for use in reforestation work. The total area reforested was 

 about 30,000 acres. 



There is promise of a large turpentine, industry in West and 

 Southwest, the raw product being supplied by the resinous gum 

 of Western yellow pine.
