For every age God prepares His agen-

as the birds wing fits the air, and the fin
Of the Ash the yielding water, so in the
moral and religious world God adapts His
plans and methods to the needs of the
time.
ITO the mind of the devout believer
shere Is no surer test of the ovarruling
providence of God. In every great move
ment in the church of God can be seen
Gods nice adjustment of time and place
and method to the needs of the age.
'I think it is no empty boast to claim
that the Christian Endeavor society was
raised up by God for a special crisis In

Its purpose Is not to amuse young people,
or to tickle them with the entertainment

Mr.. Dawes entered the office Of comp

ceeding James H. Eckels. and was imme-
diately confronted by the situation In the
Chestnut Street national bank of Philadel-
phIa, which was one of the most compli-
Gated ever confronting a comptroller. He

creditors of the bank to oppose the gem

ly expressed himself rs IN favor OF prompt
action when conyincea thai tie pubic IN

his principle, notably In the recent case Of
the Seventh national bank of New York
One OF his first orders after entering Of

he made ruling ievying a second assess

the practice of rebating to stockholders

ruling changed the long-established prac-

the national bank failures of the 1893 panic
were still undisposed of. During the last
four years he has COLLECTED S6. 600 900 cash
from these assets. which covered every de-
scription of property. One Of the most
prominent features of Comptroller Dawes
administration has been his annual reports
to congress. He came to Office at time
when the monetary system Of the country
was subject of general interest, and the
arguments he advanced In his reports be-
came the subject Of widespread discussion
by the press and financial Journals OF the
United States and England. He argued
against bank asset currency under our
present national bank system and opposed
with vigor the idea of prior lien OF the
note holder over the depositor upon assets
of insolvent banks. During his term he
prepared very complete list of statistics
relating to banking in the United States.

In view of the fact that there is now

setting aside of certain tracts of tim
Der land included in the Leech Lake In
dian reservation in Minnesota, except
such lands as have been allotted to the
Indians in severalty, as a national park
and forest reserve for the purpose of
preserving the timber and conserving
the water supply of the Mississippi river
and in view Of the part that other tracts
of timber lands in the northern part of
Minnesota, Wisconsin and other states
and territories in the union from which
the timber has been removed which
have reverted back to the government
should be set aside for forestry pur-
poses that they may again be covered
s~ith forest growth to supply coming
generations. Therefore be 1t
Resolved, That the Iowa Academy
of Sciences, in session, hereby petition
congress, first, to segregate, for park
purposes, the said tract of land at the
'headwaters of the Mississippi and such.
other lands as congress may have con-
troll over in the states Of Minnesota and
Wisconsin and in other states, especial
slv the Rocky mountain and Sierra re-
Isions, to the end that not only the tim
Der OF said states may be partially
saved. but for holding the moisture in
said regions, and also for the preserva
ton of our wild game. Second, we also
favor a proposed southern Appalachian

Resolved, third That the govern
irent withhold from the market public
j; nds covered With timber, that the ma
ture timber on the same be sold under
the supervision of a technically trained
forester. Fourth, that we urge upon con-
gress the feasibility of concentrating
the forestry work. and urge that the.
establish a national system
of forestry, especially with reference to
our forest reserves. Fifth, that the SUI
pervision Of these forest reserves be
Placed in charge of trained foresters, all
