:11:01
we bought it today.
:11:04
And this morning its become
the Higgins Lumber Company.
:11:09
I trust that meets
with your approval.
:11:11
Sure. Naturally.
:11:14
I trust it meets with yours.
:11:18
Naturally, J.L.
:11:23
For the present, it has
no active head...
:11:25
and shall remain so...
:11:27
until the one vacant chair here...
:11:30
becomes suitably populated.
:11:32
If you're referring to me,
you're wasting your time.
:11:34
Whats that?
:11:36
The man I marry won't
care for the lumber business.
:11:40
Don't be impudent.
I'm sorry.
:11:44
There's no further
discussion of business...
:11:46
until after dinner.
:12:11
I'm happy to say all the Higgins
enterprises are doing well.
:12:16
All except the Higgins
Paper Box Company.
:12:21
I'm sorry to report sales have
dropped to a dangerous extend.
:12:25
I have the figures in front of me.
:12:30
The first 3 months of
the fiscal year...
:12:33
style 4, all colors,
dropped 14%.
:12:37
The Higgins Special we
manufactured for 20 years...
:12:41
with which we are nationally
identified...
:12:44
22%.
:12:48
The Company needs more
application of its management.
:12:53
You can't expect a business
to flourish when the head...
:12:57
is off gallivanting with a horse.
:12:59
Whats your point?
