A Dog That breaches A Missionary Ser
mon.

This was the topic of the Metho-
dist Sunday school missionary pro-
gram given last Sunday, a large
engraving of the dog being shown.
A missionary home on furlough
observed fine watch dog made Of
iron, standing in store window,
and said to the friend with her, II
wish | had that dog at my station. :"
The friend purchased the dog and
sent it to Burma. The missionary
set it up in the front yard, and when
the natives ask her what it is for,
she tells them it is to protect her.
self and the mission property. Nat
urally they ridicule the idea; and
then she has an excellent opportun-
ity to show them how vain is their
trust in idols of wood and stone, the
work of mems hands. Miss Thomas,
the popular teacher of the fourth
grade in the public schools, told the
lesson story in an interesting man
ner, and by skillful questioning of
the juniors, she drew out their
ideas, and awakened sense Of pity
in all hearts for the ignorant idol
aters. Responsive reading Of psalm
lis followed.

Historic Forest Fires.

The terrible work of the flames
which have burned over and de-
stroyed hundreds of thousands of
acres of timber and property to
the value of millions in the Lake
States, recalls to memory other
great forest fires which have at
tanned historic Importance.
One of the earliest of these was
the great Miramichi fire of 1925.
1t began its greatest destruction
about one O'Clock in the afternoon
of October 9TH of that year, at a
place about 60 miles above the
town of Newcastle, on the Mira
mlchi River, in New Brunswick.
Before ten O'Clock at night it was
20 miles below Newcastle. In
nine hours it had destroyed a belt
of forest so miles long and % miles
wide. Over more than two and
one half million acres, and almost
every living thing was killed.
Even the fish were afterwards
found dead in heaps on the river
banks. Five hundred and ninety
buildings were burned, and q
number of towns, including New
castle, Chatham and Douglastown,
we're destroyed. One hundred
and sixty persons persisted, and
nearly thousand head of stock.
The loss from the Miramichi fire
is estimated at 100000 not in
aladdin. Az, v,.I,,1 <.f fho fs,,,l,x,,.

ArIingtOn's First Paper

The Fort Gaines Sentinel seems to grow
wrathy over statement of the editors of the
Early County News two weeks ago that Messrs
Grubbs and Jones were the first publishers of
newspaper in Arlington, instead of Brother
Bateman, who claimed to have published the
first paper here in his discourse to Editor Lane
he of the automobile, and millionair fame
about coming to our town in his automobile
Here is what Editor Bateman says:
sSomebody has blundered, and it looks like
it was the editor of The Sentinel. This much,
however, we know: In the spring of 1891
( we did, without any malice aforethought at
about O'Clock one night (if we remember
correctly) print, press, or run off, on
Washington handpress No. A, in the town of
Arlington, Calhoun County Courier. The
press and type had only a few days before been
moved from Leary to: Arlington. There was
at,that time no other paper published there,
and our mistake was in ignorantly preSuming
that there had not been any other. We were
not a sbo,' and did the work out of courtesy
for our friend Jesse E. Mercer, who was at that
time the manager, and who will testify that
the above statement is, to the best of his know
ledge and belief, absolutely true. Now, if we
have not sinned beyond reparation, we sincere

fires as this, the destruction of
the timber is a more serious loss,
by far, than that of the cattle and
buildings, for it carries with it
the impoverishment of a whole
region for tens or even hundreds
of years afterwards. The loss of
the stumpage value of the timber
at the time of the fire is but a
small part of the damage to the
neighborhood. The wages that
would have been earned in lum-
bering, added to the value of the
produce that would have been
purchased to supply the lumber
camps, and the taxes that would
have been devoted to roads and
other public improvements, fur
nish a much truer measure of how
much, sooner or later, it costs a
region when it's forests are de-
stroyed by fire.
The Pashtigo fire of October,
ISL, was still more severe than
the Miramichi. 1t covered an
area OF more than 1000 square
miles in Wisconsin, and involved
a loss in timber and other prop
erty of many millions of dollars.
Between 200 and 81, 800 perish
ed, including nearly half the
population Of Pashtigo, at that
time town of 1900 inhabitants.
Other fires of about the same time
were most destructive in Micbi-
gan. A strip about 40 miles vide
and 100 miles long, extending
across the central part of the state
from Lake Michigan to Lake HUI
Iron, was devasted. The estima-
ted loss in timber was about 4, 900
900, 900 feet board measure, and in
money over $40, 100000. Several
hundred persons persisted.
In the early part of September,
1881, great fires covered more than
800 square miles in various parts
Of Michigan. The estimated loss
in property, in addition to many
hundred thousand acres of valu-
able timber, was more than $2,-
100000. Over 5000 persons
were made destitute, and the num-
Der of lives lost is variously esti-
mated at from $50 to 500.
] The most destructive fire of
more recent years was that which
started near Hinckley, Minnesota,
September 1, 1894. While the
area burned over was less than
in some other great fires, the loss
of life and property was very
heavy. Hinckley and six other
towns were destroyed, about 500
lives were lost, more than 1000
persons were left destitute, and
the estimated loss in property of
various kinds was $25, O0O, 900.
Except for the heroic conduct of
locomotive engineers and other
railroad men, the loss of life would
have been much greater.
This fire was all the more de-
plorable, because it was wholly
Unnecessary. For many days be-
fore the high wind came and drove
it into uncomfortable fury; it was
burning slowly close to the town
of Hinckley, and could have been
put out.
