sino Sine to Be Removed.

Sing Sing prison is to be removed
across the Hudson river Is or 20
miles northward, just eight miles
south of West Point, where a large
tract of land has been purchased and
a gang of several hundred ~convicts
has been working for two years.
The present prison was also built by
convicts in 1926, with material found
on the grounds, but, although it has
been enlarged every few years, and is
now one of the largest penitentiaries
in the world, it is not large enough.

The Root Of AItruism,

The three eternal roots of altruistic
energy are these: First, the principle
OF justice; that there is a moral law
before which all men are equal, SO
that l ought to help my neighbor to
his rights. Second, the principle of
charity: that l owe infinite tenderness
to any shape or kind of man, however
unworthy or useless to the state.
Third, the principle Of free will; that
l can really decide to help my neigh
Dor. and am truly disgraced if do not

idea of definite judgment; that is,
that the action will at some time ter.
ribly matter to the helper and the
helped.-G. X. Chesterton.

Thus spoke Rev A. Eugene Bart.

The irresistible courage and in

in the farther West, and 1t is a ma
tional asset that the whole country
may share. This country cannot be
rightly judged by the New Eng
land standard OF culture and con-

western farmers no more. They do
not need your sympathy unless their
automobile breaks down.
1T is the Far West that is teaching
the whole country to save the ma

value of the water and the worth OF
trees. The love OF home is very strong
in the Far West.
"Sectionalism is disappearing. East

country's Forests Grow Less.

Washington.-A startling situation
has developed as the result OF TAX
ing of stock of the country's forest
resources, according to Treadwell
Cleveland, Jr., expert in the bureau
of forestry. in bulletin made public
today entitled The Status of Forestry
in the United States"
1t has shown, Mr.. Cleveland de-
clares, that the country still is de-
stroying the forest, taking from 10
every year three and half times as
much wood as is added by the new
growth. 1t has shown that less than
one-third of the growing trees felled
by the lumbermep is ever used at all,
so that two-thirds of all the timber cut
10 simply destroyed. 1t has shown
that one-eleventh of ar the forests is
swept by fires every year and that on
the average since 1870 forest fires
have yearly cost $o0,000,000 in timber
and so lives.
1t has shown, Mr.. Cleveland con-
tinues, that over 80 per cent. of the
forests in private hands-which COM
prise three-fourths Of all the forest
land and four-fifths of all the wood,
is thus devastated by destructive use
and the sweep of uncnecked fires,
while less than one per cent. is prop
erly handled for successive crops or
effectively protected from fire. 1t is
stated Iurther that the forest as re-
source is rapidly being obliterated.

Jackdaw's Stolen JeweIry,

A gold chain and locket which were
lost in Buckingham a few days ago
were recovered in a singular manner.
A gentleman and his wife to whom
the articles belonged lost them during
walk. Several days after what
seemed to be the chain and locket
were seen hanging upon a telephone
wire. A ladder was obtained and as
there was nothing 10 rest it against
some men held it in a perpendicular
position while the lady's husband as
cended and unwound the chain from
the wire. The find proved to be the
lost treasure. The theory is that the
articles were picked up by jackdaw
which alighted on the telephone wire
and that the wind caused the chain to
swing until 1t became wound around

simultaneously work was begun at

several thousand feet from the west
end, where shaft was sunk. AS fast
as the tunnel was driven through the
shale and solid rock, it was timbered.
and then the heavy timbers were
covered with impervious cement. This
gives a tunnel of solid concrete built

There is no dam across the Black
