The lead pencil Is one OF the most
common articles in everyday use, and
nearly $50, 900, 900 pencils are
manufactured in this country every
year. To manufacture these millions
of pencils there are required ITO, 900
tons or 7 800, 900 cubic feet, of wood,
so that each day IN the year 800 tons,
or 20, 900 cubic feet, Of wood are used
for pencils. Since practically all OF
the wood IS red cedar, and since the
pencil industry is steadily growing,
the supply Of red CEDAR is greatly
depleted; st no substtut has been
found Tor it. Leaving out of con-
sideratIou the imported pencils, the
average educ9ted American over 10
years of age uses six pencils Of home
manufacture each year. Ten years
ago he used less than five

using industry is SO dependent upon a
single species as the pencil industry is
dependent upon red cedar. la fact,
red cedar suitable for pencil
manufacture is the only wood the
price Of which Is always quoted by the
pound.
Strange as it may seem, no steps
have heretofore been taken to provide
for II future supply Of red cedar. This
has been largely due to the lack OF
Information on the rate Of growth and
the habits Of the tree, add to the
widespread belief taat second growth
red cedar never reaches merchantable
size.
In accordance with its policy
toward the conversation and economic
use Of commercial woods, the Forest
Service has made a more careful study
of red cedar and has come to the con-
cluslon that it can probably be grown
in regions Of its development, Se.eral
changes are recommended in present
forest management in order to secure
the desired growth. In the southern
forests the cedar will have to 5e given
q better chance instead of being
considered, as now, a negligible
quantity in its younger stages, and
many Of the torest-grown trees which
are now cut for fence posts can
probably DO left to attain their iull
development and thus become available
for pencil wood.

The Capturing Of Lions.

AS youngsters most OF us read P,ul
DuOhaillu's adventure book, and found
huge delight in the fascinating
descriptions Of African wild animals
and their capture. Such clean
adventure fiction is not often found OF
late and amid the prepopderance Of
morbidly realistic stories, but we
occasionally find a tale that pleases
US as they used to. In the April
McClure'S there Is such Il one
Sister AIMS Lions, " by Floy Sulzer
Bingham, a story of t~o wee girls who
capture a PAIR Of life sized lions. 1t Is
a rare combination indeed, and as
improbable as it all may sound from
this review there IS IN 1t an element Of
irresistible conviction. There are nc
heart sickening details IN the story,
no overlooking Of horror situations, il
fact there is no gruesome touch IN the
whole story, but nevertheless it thrill,
one with excitement.

A Lost AIT 10 Violin Making.

The Cremona varnish disappeared
about 1880 and so far the receipt has
not been redlscovered. Whether 1t
was a gum or an oil or a dlstillation
from some plant or a chemical is not
known, nor how it was mixed. Many
theories regarding 1t have been advar-
ced from time to time; and bod, who
died In 1880, claimed to have rediscov-
cred 1t. He employed others to make
his violins, but always vanished tn N
himself. His varnish is very superior,
and his violins command high prices.
The vanishing aud polishing OF a
violin are done usually by a woman
1t requires time aud pra aise, for the
finest instruments are gone over as
often as thirty times.- Elizabeth
