named, and new life was breathed
into the vast department. From now

Lightning and Forest Fires.

Lightning Is held responsible for
most of the forest fires this year, and
while the number of severe local
thunderstorms has been somewhat
exceptional, this is a fresh reminder
that the exercise of care by railroads
and campers, good in itself, can never
yield full protection. No matter how
we'll the laws are observed there
must be fires from time to time,
kindled as nature has been kindling
them for ages; origin, perhaps, of the
Prometheus legend. The remedy
must be found in the gradual and sys-
teTnatic application of scientific fores.
try, including fire lanes and the care
full clearing away of brush and fallen
timber. There is need, too, of a
further extension Of the patrol serv-
ice, with a network of watchtowers
from which an incipient fire can be
quickly discerned. In this state such
a network is nearly complete, and
with the help of the telephone a
force Of firefighters can quickly be
dispatched to the scene. The need
less loss of valuable timber in recent
years runs far up into the millions,
but the day of such prodigal waste
is rapidly drawing to an end.

Neglected Neishborhoods.

You can find in almost any town
neglected neighborhood." The
easiest thing to do with such a neigh
borhood is to keep on neglecting it,
1t is SO easy for US to. study these
topics as II they were about other
places and people than ourselves and
our homes. Is there a neglected cor
ner in your town. or In your county?
II there is what are you going to- do
about It? Not What have you been
doing about it," as What ought you
to do about it?" but What are you
going to do about it?"
II you can't get the committees IN
terested. do something yourself. Do
not be afraid.
The thing is to get started. You
see. as soon as you have started some
thing. the neighborhood is no longer
neglected. And then 1t will be an cas-
Ter matter to get someone to come In
