Dying American Forests.

The National Hardwood Lumber
Association, recently in session in
Memphis, Tenn, accepted the com.
mittee report that, from the best esti.

stood in the United States approx
mately 1,475,O0O. 900 feet of lum.
Der, but that $1,000, 900, 900 feet were
being cut every year"
At this rate our forests would last
nearly thirty-three eyars, at which
time the production of commercial lum-
Der must cease altogether.
But there are several other contin-
gencies which must be considered in
such calculations. The annual fires
in forests destroy an incredible quan.
tity Of standing timber. including all
the younger growths which have
started and the seed as well and seed
trees from which future forests must
be produced
Including the consumption of wood

Members of New Sect Suddenly En-.
dowed With Ability to Speak Chi
nese and Greek


Power to heal the sick, to prophesy,
and the gift Of tongues like that which
enabled the first apostles to preach
the gospel in strange lands, are all
claimed by the members of the Church
Of the Full Gospel, a new religious
sect which In the past three years
with remarkable rapidity
In an old church on the corner OF
Nineteenth and Welton street, the
congregation in Denver, which now
numbers 500, holds it's meetings on
Sunday for regular service Every
Wednesday afternoon a meeting is
held at which it is claimed the power
of Divine healing has been again and
again manifested. The Rev. c. f.
Fink is founder OF the new sect. The
pastor of the Denver congregation is
the Rev. S. A. BrelesfOrd Fifteen
young men are now preparing them
selves to become missionaries In for
eign fields. Most of them understand
no foreign language, but they will
leave in the faith that this difficulty
will be overcome through divine aid.
The claim is made that in the pres
ence OF many people members of the
church have already been gifted with
tongues they never heard before.
Ethel Brelesford, the 12-year-old
daughter of Pastor Brelesford, is said
to have recently spoken in Chinese.
James Diltz, assistant roadmaster of
the Rock Island. recently resigned to
become a missionary He, too they
say, can speak Chinese. Others have
spoken in German and Spanish, and
two were gifted with the Greek lang
uage.
