Rotarians here Fridav huard J
Aaron Prevost .tell of his recent
trip to Mexico, and an insertion
of lumbering operations ia the
jungles of "the Egjpt of Ttw West-
ern Hemisphere",
Mr. Pievost was the truest of
one of the largest mahogany oper
ators in ".he world. The firm owns
4Vi million acres of mahogany tiin
berlands. and: operates scores of
mills, and even owns villages.
Mr. Prevost is one o the firm's
customers, using a lare ouantitv
of mahogany in the manufacture of
furniture.
I never thought I d. ever see
houses built of solid mahosanv. I
one village In Mexico, alt lumber
used was solid mahogany, since
fliey had wo other type suitable for
building,' he said.
The 12 visitors from the state
made a trip back !nto the heart of
the Jungle, and saw every phase
of lumbering as carried on In Mex
ico. "Some is highly jnechantaed,
and still la other sections, the op
erations are carried on in a primi
tive fashion. In some of. the ter
ritory, it is so rugged, and rocky,
that even modern tractors cannot
make headway. In the dense lun-
gles, the huge machines make a
path stopping at nothing under a
24-inch tree."
The Americans could not eet ac
customed to the highly seasoned
Mexican foods, and literally fasted
at times. The water systems in var
ious villages, and even lareer cities
were so primitive that the visitors
drank coffee, and never used "raw"
water.
Mr. Prevost described the dav
as extremely hot, and the nights
Drought a penetrating damp cold
ness, which added. to the discom
fort of those unaccustomed to such
climates.
The DHltv attenrloH a hull fioM
in Mexico City before the'ir return
home. The occasion was colorful,
and filled with excitement, al.
though the Americans did not seem
to get the "thrill" out of seeina six
bulls killed as did the yelling
throngs of Mexicans. Some of the
visitors had to leave the fight soon
after the torture of the animal
startedand the blood began to
spurt. .
The fight gave the visitors an in.
sight into the habits, and favorite
sport of the Mexicans, although It
kept some of the folk from the
States from enjoying steuks for a
long time. .-, . ,
The trip was made bv Diane
from here to Mexico. While in
Mexico they used every means of
conveyance, from narrow gauge
railroads, boats, private plane, car,
and truck.
Since Mr, Prevost is an excellent
golfer, he had an opportunity of
playing on one of Mexico's largest
courses, and the president's son
also a talented golfer, followed the
foursome, but did not play.
A visit to a seacoast town, to
see export operations made a Dro-
f ound impression on Mr. Prevost,
because there he saw a shipment
manogany oeing loaded on
ship, and a closer look revealed the
ihlpment was being mad tn his
plant at Bryson City, which spe
cializes in mahogany furniture.
Too Cold Outside, Ice
Bound Victim Says
SPOKANE. Wash. (UP) An el
derly man called the fire depart
ment to advise he was trapped in
his house by ice,
Jay Wallace, fire department
radio operator, said the man re
ported the snow on his reof had
melted and run down over both
doors and frozen solid. "I cant get
out," he said, "and I'm too old to
go through a window."
Wallace suggested he call a car
penter, or if he wanted, a fireman
would be sent over to chop him out.
But the man replied:
"Oh. never mind. I dont want
to go out in this weather, anyway."

High Blood Pressure
When the blood pressure remains
continuously high, the heart en
larges. The heart muscle becomes
thicker and stronger. This Is the
direct effect of the grontcr work
required of the heart to maintain
an adequate circulation. Your age,
plus 100, is not a rule for proper
blood pressure. "Blood pressure
should remain much the tame
throughout adult life.
