A Course in Forestry.

Among the new and practical courses
now being given at the University of
Michigan, is that of forestry. The
course is technical in character, and
open only to graduate students. 1t prop
erly requires six years, including the
four years undergraduate work although
it may be possible to complete it in five.
Thus far, some twenty three students
have decided to take up the work Ar
rangements for laboratory are being
made in West Hall. Material for the
practical study of the scientific and com
mercial sides of forestry is being gather
ed, and will be grown in the University's
new botanical gardens. The II. M. Loud
Sons Company has kindly extended the
privileges of its lumber camps about
Oscoda, Mich. and permanent arrange
ments for field work will soon be made.
A forestry club is also to be organized
Charles A. Davis, instructor in forestry,
has been working all summer in and
about the state. studying especially the
local conditions. Thus far, an oak tree,
new in Michigan, and not previously
listed, has been discovered Two courses
of instruction are being given this year
One is synoptical review of the science
and the other is course treating of the
laws controlling the development of
trees and forests and their application in
methods of improving, treating, and re-
producing forest crops. Other courses
that have been planned are (I study
of trees and shrubs, their Identification,
structure, development. relationship,
distribution and uses; (2) forest mensura-
ton.

A course in rural sociology was begun
at the University of Michigan last fall.
The instructor in beginning his lectures
stated that for some years great deal
has been said and written about the
problems of the city. Social settle
ments have been organized and are be-
ing supported for the purpose of study
ing the questions of the city and trying
to better the conditions of the urban
population. Now it is beginning to be
quite generally recognized that the
country also, has problems that are
worth the consideration of the sociolo-
gist. About one half of the people of
the United States belong to the rural
classes. They are an integral part of
the industrial and social structure.
Their problems while very different
from these of the people living in the
city, are of sufficient Importance to
warrant the attention of educated peo-
pie, and especially of those whose pro
fessional work will bring them into con-
tact with the questions involved. The
course, therefore, is designed to interest
students wishing to secure a complete
view of sociological problems and for
those preparing for teaching, for the
ministry, and for journalism.
Some of the topics that are being
treated are: the agricultural industry,
the rural population, rural communica-
ton, farmers organizations, business
cooperation in agriculture, the rural
school, the country church, agricultural
education, social phases of agricultural
problems, and the psychology of farm
life.

The Home Which Makes the r sht
Kind Of Boy.

A good boy is the natural product of
good home. and all the efforts Of
philanthropy to make boys better are
consciously imperfect substitutes for
the natural influences of a healthy
minded home. The great and over
shadowing peril of boys life ID not,
as many suppose, his bad companions,
or his bad books, or his bad habits; it is
the peril of homelessness / do not
mean merely houselessness- shaving no
bed or room which can be called ones
own, but that homelessness which may
exist even in luxurious houses--the is
olation of the boys soul, the lack of any
one to listen to him, the loss of roots to
hold him to his place and make him
grow. This is what drives the boy into
the arms of evil and makes the streets
his home and the gang his family, or
else drives him in upon himself, into
uncommunicated imaginings and fever
ish desires 1t is the modern story of
the man whose house was empty and
precisely because it was empty there
entered seven devils.to keep him COM
pany. If there is one thing that boy
cannot bear it is himself He is by ma
ture a gregarious animal, and if the
group which nature gives him is denied,
then he gives himself to any group
which may solicit him. A boy, like all
things in nature, abhors vacuum, and
if his home is vacuum of lovelessness
and homelessness, then he abhors his
home
Evidently, therefore, when one speaks
of the peril of homelessness, he is not
thinking of poor boys alone OF course
there is poverty which involves home
lessness, the wandering life of the street
Arab or the young tramp. In a vast
majority, however, even of very hum
BILE homes, one of the most conspicuous
and beautiful traits is the instinct of
family affection, enduring every kind
of strain-the woman clnging to the
drunken husband, the parents bearing
with the hayward son-and on the
other hand, an increasing danger of
the prosperous is the tendency to home
lessness; the peril of the nomadic life,
as though home were tent which
one might at any time fold, like the
Arabs, and as silently steal away; the
slackening of responsibility through the
movement of social habit to the hotel
or boarding house as ways of escape
from the burdens of the home Fran

We heard man say the other morn
ing that the abbreviation for February
Feb. means Freeze every body, and that
man looked frozen in his ulster. 1t was
apparent that he needed the kind of
warmth that stays, the warmth that
reaches from head to foot all over the
body. We could have told him from
personal knowledge that Hoods Sarsap-

vigorates the blood and speeds it along
through artery and vein, and really fits
men and women, boys and girls, to en-
joy cold weather and resist the attacks
of disease. 1t gives the right kind of

the same time, and all its benefits are

A Baby Saved Him.

drink with them, said:

bare clothes and looking as hard as

handed it to the pawnbroker, saying,
Give me ten cents. And what do you
suppose it wasY 1t was pair of baby's
shoes, little things with the bottoms
only trifle soiled, as though they had
been worn only once or twice. Where
did you get theseH asked the pawn
broker. Got 'em at home, replied the
man. My wife bought 'em for the
baby. Give me ten cents for 'em-I
want to get drink You had better
take them back to your wife, the baby
will need them, said the pawnbroker
No, she won't; she's dead-baby died
last night, and then the poor fellow
laid his head down on the showcase and
cried like child
Boys, have baby at home, and I'll
not take drink with you today"

Abraham Lincoln.

In the great drama of the rebellion
there were two acts. The first was the
war, with its battles and sieges, its VIC
tories and defeats, it's sufferings and
tears. Just as the curtain was lifting
on the second and final act, the restora-
ton of peace and liberty, the evil spirit
of the rebellion, in the fury of despair,
nerved and directed the hand of an
assassin to strike down the chief char
acter in both.
Sir, there are times in the history of
men and nations, when they stand SO
near the veil that separates the mortal
from the immortal, time from eternity,
and men from God, that they can al
most hear the beatings and pulsations
of the heart of the Infinite. Through
such time has this Nation passed.
When two hundred and fifty thousand
brave spirits passed from the field of
honor, through that thin veil, to the
presence of God, and when at last its
parting folds admitted the martyred
President to the company of those dead
heroes of the Republic, the. Nation stood
so near the veil that the whispers of
God were heard by the children of men.
Awe-stricken by his voice, the Amer
lean people knelt in fearful reverence
and made solemn covenant with him
and with each other that this Nation
should be saved from its enemies, that
all its glories should be restored, and,
on the ruins, of slavery and treason, the
temples of freedom and justice should
be built, and should survive forever.
1t remains for us, consecrated by that
great event and under covenant with
God, to keep that faith, to- go forward
in the great work until it shall, be COM
pleted. Following the. lead of that
great man, and obeying the high be-
hests of God, let us remember that
HE has sounded forth the trumpet that
shall never call retreat;
He is sitting out the hearts of men be-
fore His Judgment seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Himl
be jubilant, my feetp'
Our God is marching on.

And never tries to shirk.

buried IN smother of fierce-f1ying
foam. The gallant little boat shook
herself free in a twinkling, and was
up and at it, thrashing through AMI
over the seas which seemed to spring
up out of the foam reek as if b.

sheet-line in his teeth, and so had an
arm for the tiller and one for Char
