FoREsTERs HAVE PHONES.
All Reserves to BE Supplied With Tel
ephOne Systems.

For the better protection of the
forest reserves the forest service, in
cooperation with the weather bureau.
VIII install system of telephone lines
and stations on them as rapidly as
possible. says a Washington dispatch.
The first system will be installed on
the Big Horn forest reserves In Wyo-
ming. This telephone service will en-
able forest rangers to notify one an
other without delay when forest fires
break out.
In so large an area as the Big Horn
service, which comprises 1,151,6sO
acres, the value of rapid communica-
ton is obvious, and there can be no
doubt that the elimination of delay
will result in a striking improvement
in the control of the forest fires.
This highly practical system of fire
warning will be extended in due
course to the reserves in Washington,
Montana, Idaho and other reserves.
The putting out OF forest fire may
often depend upon immediate knowl-
edge of its origin and whereabouts,
so that this new fire alarm device
ought apparently to produce excellent
results.

The city schols opened Monday with
the best attendance yet recorded,
there being a registration of 76O stu
dents in the different grades in the

registered at the present opening than
at the same time last year. The great
est increase of students in the differ
ent departments was in the high

over 40 per cent greater than last
year.
The instructors believe that in two
weeks there will be at least 100 more
pupils enrolled in the various depart

Disastrous Hsii Storm.

La Junta was visited by very
severe rain and hail storm about s
o'clock Thursday evening. For
few minutes the rain descended in
torrents, and was accompanied by
hail which covered the ground to a
depth Of two inches. The hail
stones were very small and no par
ticular damage was done to fruit
hereabouts. f. N. Berry, who lives
three miles west of La Junta, reports
that about half of his crop of peaches
was either knocked off the trees, or
bruised, and all of his cantaloupes
and vegetables will have to be re-
planted. Most of the cantaloupes
and vegetables all over the Fair
mount country will have to be
replanted. j. II. Crowley, of
the Fairview orchards, near Rocky
Ford, estimates his loss on account
of the hail storm, at $500. There
was no hail at all in East Holbrook.
The telephone wires are all down in
West Holbrook and we were unable
toSearn the extent of the damage
there. A hail storm is the only
thing that can set the Arkansas VAL
ley back this year. and it is the hope
and prayer of all that there will be
no further visitations.

Creed Of the Giks.

Do not keep the alabaster boxes
of your love and tenderness sealed
up until your friends are dead. Fill
their lives with sweetness; speak ap-
proving. cheering words while their
ears can hear them. and their hearts
can be thrilled and made happier;
the kind things you mean to say when
they are gone, say before they go.
The flowers you mean to send for
their coffins send to brighten and
sweeten their homes before they
leave them. If my friends have
alabaster boxes laid away, full of
fragrant perfumes Of sympathy and
affection. which they intend to break
over my body. | would rather they
would bring them forth in my weary
and troubled hours that | may be
refreshed and cheered while ! need
them.
would rather have a plain coffin
without flower; funeral without
eulogy, than life without the
sweetness of love and sympathy.
Post-mortem kindness does not cheer
the burdened spirit. Flowers on the
coffin cast no fragrance backward
DER the weary way.
