A "LIVING TOWER"

What is known as the Living Tow
err says writer in the Wide World
Magazine, stands on the very summit
Camp Meeker, a summer resort in
Sonoma county, Cal. 1t was Captain
Meeker, an old pioneer who first con-
ceiVed the idea of constructing this
remarkable tower. Captain Meeker
conceived the plan of building tower
on the very summit of high hill near
his hotel, and while looking around
one day for a suitable site he found
four young redwood trees standing
about twelve feet apart, representing
a perfect square. Then the idea sud-
denly came to him to build living
tower" The trees were each about
$50 feet high. Fifty feet of each top
was Topped of, and the work of build
ing six stories was then commenced.
From top to bottom the Living Tow
err is 100 feet high. Each floor is
about twelve by twelve feet, and rests
on strong timbers, the ends of which
are securely attached to the four trees
by means of steel cables and bolts.
nv oNAOASIJ was CNClS pdiI
that the whole structure does not
move as much as one would naturally
suppose, even when rocked by heavy
winds. The tower has been carefully
examined by builders and engineers,
and pronounced perfectly safe. In the
building great care was taken by the
workmen to cut only 1.-the branches
growing on the inside" of the square,
and the trees were not chopped, mutt
lated, or weakened any more than
could possibly be avoided. Leading up
from each story are broad stairways,
so that one may ascend and descend
with ease and perfect safety, while
around the edge of each floor are
strong ratings to prevent accidents.
Since this tower was completed, the
trees have grown and f1ourished just
as well as before AsGtime goes on,
this very unique lookout observatory
will become literally embowered In
foliage. This Living Tower is said
to be the only one of its kind in the
world. e. T.

Instructor on Birds Proves Popular,
ScOutmaster.
A., Charles w. Miller, instructor in the
Worthington Institute for the Study OF
Bird Life in Shawnee-on- Delaware
Pa, has found the Boy Scouts great
help to him in his work. The Boy
Scouts in turn have derived tremen-
dous benefit by having such a man as
Miller as their scoutmaster. Miller
takes the boys on hikes and teaches
them the habits of the birds which the
boys see. He, however, is so well
trained in birdcraft that he knows
the song of every bird. Accordingly
whenever the boys sit down to rest, he
interprets the song of every bird in
hearing distance. The boys have ia
ken enthusiastically to the study OF
bird life and they also are caring fol-
the birds by looking out for the
wounded and providing feeding places
for the birds in the winter time. Scout
master Miller also has encouraged the
boys in the crusade against flies, mos
Quitoes, sparrows, rats and mice. He
also has helped them to do useful
work in fighting the chestnut tree
blight.

Boy Scouts OF America Not Buying
Rifles.


Rifles.
Through a misunderstanding of the
activities of the Boy Scouts of Amer
lea as distinguished from the America
Boy Scouts, another cry against the
Scout movement has risen because of
the fact that the leaders of the Ameri-
can Boy Scouts are urging their boys
to buy rifles. The leaders of the Boy
Scouts of America are utterly opposed
~ ae> "a Sc at firearms and are doing
everything possible to disco e. 60"
from carrying them, even forbidding a
member of the Boy Scouts of America
to carry a rifle when wearing a scout
uniform. When this situation was
called to his attention, James E. West,
chief scout executive of the Boy Scouts
of America, said: AS a matter of
fact, the American Boy Scouts have at
no time made any claim that they are
not military in character. Their work
is distinctly military and it is for this
reason that it is unfair for them to call
themselves a Scout organization be-
cause General Baden-Powell and 9TH
ers interested in promoting the Scout
movement have, consistently forbidden
the introduction of military training
in connection with the Scout idea. We
absolutely forbid the use of arms as
part of the equipment of the Boy
Scout of America and are conscien-
tiously doing all we can to promote an
organization non-military in character
which will serve to develop the char
acter of our boys and in reality
strengthen the peace movement the
world over"

REPUBLICANS VOTE FOR WILSON,.

! Why |, a progressive Republican,
should throw my support to Governor
Wilson is a question that has been
put to me many times since the open
ing of the Presidential campaign. The
question is not a difficult one to an
swer since the issues are so plain and
the men seeking the high office stand
out so sharply by contrast. This is
not time for too strict adherence
to party ties. Political traditions is,
after all, ephemeral in the face of
the bigger issue-that of choosing the
highest type of man to I'LL the exalted
office of President
More and more we are coming to
view our President as not merely
party leader, but as the Nations lead
ed, For this reason, in making a
choice among the candidates for Pres
ident to be voted for on November 9Th,
next, our citizens should first put aside
all partisan feelings that are not re-
lated to fundamental differences in
principal. In the minds of all pro-
gressive Republicans, the underlying
principle Of their cause is honesty in
public office. This is what they are
fighting for; this is what they intend
to have.
The tariff question has, in recent
years, been about the only policy in
which the Republican and Democratic
parties have seriously differed, the Re-
publican party ostensibly standing for |
protective tariff while the Democrats |
contend for tariff for revenue only. |

terrupted Republican rule, and the tar
