Washington should have. and some
day will have. a public schools athletic
league. The object OF such an Organiza-
tior would be to broaden the scope and
usefulness of athletics in al of the pub
lie schools Of all grades. 1t has been
needed for a long, long time, and as the
District does not have TO ask Congress
for Il, the league may be formed within
the lives of persons now living.
Other cities have sue organizations
and they have ben a great power for
good, not only encouraging the training
of athletes for prizes, but in melting
youngsters TO systematically develop
their physical powers. Whether the
league will be composed entirely OF
school members and officials is not yet
known. but il hardly will be. In New
york. baltimore. and other cities It Las
beeo found a most excellent scheme 10
enlist the support and membership OF
leading citizens who appreciate ule
value of athletics. Having men or TINS
caliber on the rolls and active IN the
internal affairs of the organization, Ieilus
largely to do away with the petty Jeal-
ousies which must inevitably exist be-
tween the schools themselves
It must be frankly admitted that at
present athletics In tie washington
schools are hardly on a satisfactory
basis. There is entirely too much spe-
cialization and too much scheming Tor
the advance Of the individual institution
irrespective of the common good. Foot
ball players are naturally attracted TO
Technical High, where there is the
prospect Of a champion eleven The
consequence was last season that Tech
nical made a runaway race. Track
athletes flock to Central, where Bill
FoIey's success In turning out winners
has become so weH-lInOwn that the out
door high school meets have become
almost a farce Central is recognized
as so formidable I'm this line that the
other schools do not take the trouble to
prepare for the meets, and interest in
them has wofully declined.
The board OF faculty athletic advisors
in charge Of inter-high school sports.
Is more Of legislative body than one
Cor the general promotion Of athletics.
ard its existence should by no mea as
preclude the formation OF a body de-
signed to encourage and support COM
petitions and general exercise.
DR.. d. E Wiber, president Of the
South Atlantic Association Of the ANA
teur Union, is heartily I'm favor or the
public school league. When asked for
az opinion he said he thought it would
be good suggestion TO go ahead with
tne formation or n league among the
high schools and later have n branch
out TO include the grade schools.

Constipation is caused by weak,

IMPROVEMENTS In
NATIONAL FORESTS

Six hundred thousand dollars viii
be spent during the fiscal year 1903
1909 for the construction of roads,
trails, telephone lines and other
permanent improvements on the
National Forests. Congress has
appropriated the same amount for
this purpose during the fiscal year
of l909-19lO.
In order that the forest rangers
may cover the large area contained
IN the district, IT is very necessary
that system of trails be construct
ed along routes which give the best
control of the ares to be patrolled
In many districts telephone lines
have been built between the super
visor's Office and ranger headquar-
tiers, and to prominent peaks which
are used for lookout stations to Oh
serve fires.
20 fight forest fires effectively it
is of the utmost importance that a
force of men be rushed to the fire as
soon as possible, as these fires can
be controlled and put out if taken
when they are small, where it would
be almost impossible to check them
after they had spread over large
area. For this reason the telephone
lines and trail systems are of vital
importance and have played no
small part in the patrol system
which has resulted III the remark
ably small area burned over since
, the forests have been under govern
! ment supervision.
Among other necessary improve
: ments provided for, the Servic
r takes up the matter Of the better
4 ment of range conditions. First
0 by the construction of drift fences
: which are for the purpose of keep
0 ing stock within the area allotted t
Il them and to save the time of th
herders. Second, by the improvln
of springs and watering places.
! many sections of the west larg
areas have been of no value on &C
) count of the lack of water during
IT large portion of the year. By th
g fencing and piping of the spring

- Service has been able to conserve
supply of water which enables thes

the districts over which they have
charge. These quarters consist of a
small house, stable for his saddle
horses, a fence enclosing pasture
for his stock, and occasionally, the
fencing of small garden patch and
small piece of hay land to provide
fodder for the stock during winter
The Forest Service also cooperates
with the States, counties and COM
Dunities, in the construction OF
wagon roads, trails and brldges,
which will make accessible bodies OF
mature timber, and otherwise assist

ranges to be used throughout the
season. Third, by the fencing Of
bog or mire holes. As fast AS pos
sible, places where the loss of stock
from miring in bog holes has been
heavy are being fence SO that the
cattle can not get into them. Fourth,
by the fencing of poisonous areas.
In certain sections Of Colorado
there is a poison larkspur which,
during the spring season, will poi
son stock that Craze on it. Thes
places are being fenced and ,h
stock kept away from the areas
until the poisonous season is over,
when they are opened for grazing.
All of the national forests are di
vided into districts which are under
the direct supervision of FOresl

cutting and grazing matters, an'
patrols his district to detect aAd pre-
