Topping Toll Trow x T >
In the big tree countries of Call- t:
! iurnin, Washington and Oregon one
of the most perilous tasks of the log- p
gers is to "top" a tall tree. In felling
very high treee it is necessary for T
the loggers to remove the limbed top
so that the limbless trunk below may
have a better chance of being felled
without breaking. Some of the big ftr fi
and redwood trees have a diameter *
of two or three feet at the opening *
point, which may be as much as 160
feet or more above the ground, with 7
the trees rising 50 or 100 feet high, ^
The topping is done by one man who v,
climbs to the dissy height and it oftfe
takes him three or four hours to sever e
nt trunk. Usually, the topper stays *
on the job high in the air while he
drops the towering top .to ^he ground. "
Sometimes, however he contents him- p
self with cutting partially through the f
dree and finishing the job with s
charge of blasting powder detonated
electrically from the safety of the
ground. Information Bureau, Nstional

Washington, Nov. 15.?It was eith- r
a sign of the times or an illustration
^ of the fiickleness of the average
American. Withal, it was dramatic?
and, for certain reasons, displeasing.
' On election night in Washington,
the Washington Post, on a large
screen over Pennsylvania' avenue,
flashed the returns. In the beginning,
news trickled in so slowly thnt resort
11 was had to a comic moving picture?
r>- and then to a pictorial presentation of
some of the distinguished men dnd
i. women 01 tne day.
in [t must be remembered that in the
mind of The Post, President Harding
t. is the greatest and most lovable man
who has ever oceupied the White.
House. Of course, ifc< was the picture
of the president that was first presented.
?t. It was greeted by a sporadic applause
confined to the exterior of the
e- great circle witnessing the show. The
great heart said nothing. It was evi;.
dently tolerant but not in the moot! to
suffer an abuse of its patience. The
;t. screening of the mild and gcnt'e face
of Vice President Coolidge elecit.-d
er neither applause nor abuse. There
were innumerable smiles, and some
open laughter. Then dawned on the
screen Woodrow Wilson with Mrs. ,
Wilson. The applause was deafening.
, I: was continuous. It was still rev<
rbcrating when The Post ordered a
, change. There was the attorney genl'
eral. Hisses! The first of the night!
Then again the president. Hisses!
And then some one cried, raucously,
Ky "T?kp him ?w?v fjtkn him nnrnv "
They had forgotten that the man was *
not Harding, but the president of the v
.? United States. Anyway, it was still,
118 "Move him along, move him along."
.And then The Poat in an attempt to
1 appeal to the best in man, screened
the president and Mrs. Harding. The
crowd knew that Mrs. Harding had
hist recovered from a dreadful illness.
Its first silence indicated that
>n it desired to be generous and courtek.
cu8 and merciful. But The Post was
not quick enough in introducing an.
other face. And, finally, the raucous
30 voice again demanded: "Take him
away."
Then Wilson again with soul stirring
applause! H. W. R.
