tant truth. . . . "Bringeth forth OF

FOREST FIRES

Safeguards against destructive for
est fires have been increased of late by
the addition Of the services of 5000
men who are rural and star route mail
carriers of the United States postal
service. They were ordered by Post
master General Hitchcock TO cooper
ate with the forest rangers and state
fire wardens whenever possible. The
duty Of these mail carriers, whose
routes lie for the most part through
the wilder and the more sparsely in
habited regions. is TO notify the for
est official or fire warden whenever
they discover q forest fire. or. IL 1t is
impossible to do this personally. to as
sign the duty to a private citizen The
order also instructed postmasters In

rITAL statistics disclosed the
~ fact that there were only 142.-
ia births in France last year
as against 776.9S3 deaths
Then NJ. Messlmy. former minister OF
war, taking cognizance Of this reveia-
ton. came before the chamber of dep
uties with a proposal TO pension moth
ers Of more than four children HIS
plan started a lot OF discussion. as
might be expected. and ~antagonism,
too. especially In view Of the French
statesman's suggestion that the money
required for pension funds should be
raised by taxing bachelors. childless
married men or men with but n
child. NJ. Messimy's idea was that
every French mother should be paid
upon the birth of her fifth child the
sum of $50 or half that amount. and
in the event OF the latter arrangement
the other half should be invested for
her. Payments for-each succeeding
child born to this mother would be
made according to a sliding scale.
Happily, Uncle Sam isn't obliged to
consider such an idea as a pension for
mothers yet But there is a tendency
toward smaller families. and perhaps
the time Will come when the subject
Of pensions for American mothers will
b preached and not ridiculed either.
