The club consists of Prof. and Mrs
Goodsen and Prof Wear OF the Uni
versitv faculty and twenty-three stu
dents of the department OF music.
The stringed quartette consisting
of Messrs Goodsell. Wear, nodes

ing truly superb.

In olden times excessively long hair
was considered mark OF honor and
rank. For many centuries long hair
was in France the distinctive mark OF
kings The ancient Persians and Par
thians OF high caste wore long, flowing
hair. while the poorer classes were
obliged to cut theirs short, Homer
speaks of the long haired Greeks by
way OF distinction.
The Gauls considered long hair n
mark of honor, but Caesar obliged
them to cut II on In token OF submis-
sion. Long hair was thought by the
Franks TO denote high birth, ard the
Goths looked upon ii as n distinctive
mark Of culture and honor. Short hair
was considered by nearly all the old
atoms to denote thraIdom, and even
now criminals have their beads shaved.

This brings us to the curious personality
of Kaid Sir Harry Maclean, Raisuli's latest

an enormous influence at the Moorish
court and was confidential adviser to the
late Moulai Hassan. father of the present

some fires DO left to run their course. but
IL q fire has once reached certain dimen-
sions no power on earth can stop IL.
The tools for quenching the fire are vari-
Gus, o great deal depending upon the topog-
raphy OF the country. Only q denaely
branched green pine or spruce brush may
be necessary, oil q large sized broom with
which to whip out the running IRE or to
shovel In needed to owe burning logs or
embers with soil or to dig trenches; q mat
tock is necessary where the soil cover il
tough q the soil rooty and hence not
easily handled with q spade. or shovel alone;
an 4 to cut away blazing snags from
which brands might be thrown, to get logs

the same purpose.
1t Is not difficult to determine how much
money might be spent for protection under

A small park Of 1000 acres compactly
located may be mad safe perhaps under
one caretaker. With increase in the size
and the need OF help In addition to the
but an expenditure OF ten GENTS an acre
would in most cases insure practical i'm
munity from fire.
In addition to large amounts spent by
private owners for fire fighting the Adiron-
dack and Catskill counties and New York
State last year paid out Sis5 900 on an area
Of about $500, 900 acres for fire fighting.
when 500 900 acres were burnt and five cents
per acre was being spent without immunity
or Improvement. The clause in the Con-
stitution Of New York State which prevents
the cutting of timber, dead or alive, on
State lands precludes the State also from
making tho improvements that lead to
immunity.
Such neglect increases the danger an
nually, for the burned areas Of this year
become the fire traps for next years fires.
II Is estimated that during the last ten
years fully zoo. 900 acres were burned over
In the Adirondacks alone. with 81 estimated
damage of over 81. 900 900 n an expendi-
ture by the State m counties for fire fight
ing OF about $500 900, exclusive of what
private owners hav spent.
This shows that the fires on abou three
and a half million acres have cost approx
mately one and q half million dollars di-
rectly. in addition TO the incalculable in
direct damage.
