R. F. C. Helps Build
Newsprint Mill To
Use Texas Pine
A loan of $3,425,000 from the Re-
construction Finance Corp with
$429,000 raised ~by southern pub-
lishers, will make possible con-
struction of the first newsprint mill
undertaking to use Texas southern
pine. The plant which will be lo-
cated at Lufkin is expected to have
a capacity of 50,000 tons a year,
and will cost $6,000,000.
The late Charles Hohnes Hetty
pioneered the use of wood from the
south's large slash pine areas in
making kraft paper. His experi-
ments in making newsprint out of
pine, which experts thought im-
possible a few years ago, will be of
great help to the builders of the
new plant.
'Making of sulphate pulp from
pine is now a great industry of the
south. The sulphate pulp, which is
dark, can 'be used for paper sacks,
wrapping paper, and boxes. Mr.
Herty had perfected a method of
bleaching which is said to make the
manufacture of newsprint from this
type of pulp practical.
In making sulphate pulp the
non-cellulose lignin part of the
wood is removed by an alkaline
solution rather than acid solution
which is used in making newsprint
and book papers.
Because of the fact that loblolly,
shortleaf, longleaf and slash pine
can be grown with proper cultiva-
tion to pulp size in from 12 to 20
years on land too poor for farming
in the south, the south offers great
.possibilities in paper production. In
the north many more years are re-
quired to grow a tree to pulp size
~ecause of the shorter growing sea-
son. The long winter season makes
it necessary to carry a large sup-
ply of logs on hand at the paper
mill to assure a supply thru bad
weather. In the south only a few
days supply need be carried ahead.
With proper reforestation and
cutting only of trees of sufficient
size, a perpetual supply of pulp can
be provided within a comparatively
short distance of a southern paper
mill as compared to the long dist-
ances logs are hauled in the north.
The greatly increased number
of products made from wood pulp
which, include the many new uses
for paper and rayon and other cel-
lulose products, make a larger sup-
ply of pulp of vital importance,
It has always seemed to the writ-
er that the solution of this prob-
lem could be made by the perfec-
tion of making paper from pine,
and the construction of paper mills
in the south.
"Bobby" Feller would like to get
his driver's license back in order
to be able to continue his good-will
tour of speaking engagements to
Iowa youths. Bobby, the speed-
~ball pitcher drove his new ear

rate of 85 miles per hour. When
arraigned in municipal court in

EDITORIAL
What is the spirit of Christmas?
To many, Christmas time means
a vacation time from the regular
routtne of everyday life. It is a
hustle and bustle here and there
to do Christmas shopping! a time of
giving and receiving gifts; a time in
which a lot of baking, cooking, and
making sweets must take place;
and a time much looked forward to
when friends and loved ones will i
be home to add to the festivities.
But is this the true spirit of
Christmas? Is this spirit the deep-
est meaning to be found in Christ-
mas time?
No, Christmas means more than
a time to have good times. It is
'a season of good feeling and good
fellowship among people. It is the
date of the birth of the greatest
Man of all times; a Savior who
came on earth to spread the spirit
of peace on all the earth. It is the
one season in all the year when
people seem to forget ill feeling,
hatred, or grudges to others.
--if only the spirit of Christmas
could last the year around!
, LOVEIAN]GSS I'~OR SALE
---Helen Culbertson
I'd like to keep a little shop
And deal in loveliness;
Where young and old alike would
stop,
I'd have a thriving business.
A patch of blue sky after rain
I'd keep upon my shelf;
Frosty designs on my window pane,
Left by a tiny elf;
A squirrel's soft and fluffy tail
Arched 'gainst an evening sky;
A trim boat's white and billowing
sail,
Moved 'by the ,breezes spry,
Stars piercing splinters of frail
gold
In the blanket of the night;
The sparkle of snow under moon-
light cold,
All shimmering in the light.
These things I'd have for all to buy,
Tied up in ribbons gay.
I'd keep on hand a big supply,
And change them every day.

MAROONS DEFEAT
McVILLE
The Maroons defeated McVille
in the third game of the season,
18 to 17. The game was marked
,by numerous fouls due to which
three .McVille players were dismiss-
ed from the game.
The play resumed very slowly
with neither team hitting the net
more than twice. McVille went
ahead in the second quarter, by a
small margin, and held a half
time lead of 11 to 17.
Mt. Vernon came back in the
third quarter very strongly and
while holding McVille scoreless,
gained a lead of five points. In the
fourth period IMcVille opened up
with long shots and were within
one point of tying the score when
the gun went off.-

)pints while Fisher played a very
