This is Bird and Arbor Day.

"The Almighty never did a wiser thing than
when He made trees" said whimsical old lum-
herman; they're the usefullest critters we
have" Trees warm us, house US, feed us, de-
light us, and even help to clothe us. 1t would in
deed be difficult to name more useful 'critter."
Nothing weighs the nations conscience,
at least on the place where the conscience is
supposed to be, more than its past thoughtless
waste of timber. Millions of money have been
needlessly wasted merely by the haphazard and
carefree way in which the pioneers followed by
the lumber barons, hewed and hacked the for
ests. To the pioneer tree was an enemy to be
gotten out of the way as summarily as possible
He was SO sickened by them he even cut every
one from his clearing merely to have the SUM-
shine fall unimpeded on his roof.
But are no longer approaching the tree
with axe and saw and murder in our heart; we
go up gently with pruning knife and spade in
hand and DR.. Davy's tree surgery in head.
We it, and caress it, and add three hundred
dollars to the value of our property because it
will consent to grow in our front yard.
It's good thing to teach the school children
to love the trees. It might even be good thing
to teach some of the boys to enter the forestry
service; it would pay far better than medicine
or law or the ministry and would be just as use
full to the nation drugs, cases and sermons !;
maybe more so.
And the birds. They are as useful as the
tree though few give them credit for it. Not
only useful in the esthetic way by furnishing the
vanity of headgear adornment but in practical
dollars and cents fashion Ornithologists and
entomologists have calculated that in five years
time insects would actually denude the globe did
not the birds check their growth. Every bird
save perhaps a few depredators like the spar
row, is economic asset. Perhaps if the boys
were made to see this side of the question in
stead of being approached on the sentimental
side, they might have an increased respect for
what Olive Thorne Miller calls, "the bird, our
brother"

ouse the city health officer should
ave sufficient office for himself and
ssistants together with a city labor
tory for each do do his special Work:
ach making examinations or mix,
vater. foods. etc. all making weekly
epOrts TO the city health officer and
lie publishing full reports in all the
daily papers once a month.
The writer knows of a well-eQuipped
laboratory in the city that under GER
tain conditions could be ayaila "a
without cost, except its maintenenCe.
and TO which would be added appa-
ratus for milk and water analysis and
j few other instruments at a cost OF
about 5000. and would comprise lab
oratory amply sufficient for all neces-
sary purposes. There are students at
high school taking work in the chem
ical and analytical laboratory, and stu
dents at Earlham college working in
the biology. chemistry and bacteria
logical laboratories that. no doubt.
would be glad TO give the city labora-
tory some of their time merely for the
practical experience.
After this vast expenditure and a
thoroughly scientific expert and eff
cient department OF health that would
mean and do things, there would still
be left out OF what the city is now
spending for the mere shadow OF a
health department S26S.Sl for sundry
expenses which with ordinary econ
omy should be sufficient.

Hallowe en-.

Tomorrow will be All Haows day; this is
Halloween. Boys and girls will gather in high
gee to divide their love future; sheeted ghosts
will walk; apples will bob; masks will tour the
streets. Those who have movable gates had
better sit on them. Board walks will have to be
anchored. Nervous persons are warned not to
take tick-tacks too seriously. Old folks are eau
toned not to resent the pranks of the young
sters.
Old folks themselves may have something to
remember; the night they left wagon on top
barn; the night they drew soap pictures on the
old maids windows; the night they carried off
a dozen gates and swung them in the trees; the
night they frightened the baby into commissions
with false face; these and few other things
should be sufficient to keep all old folks still
