SHOWS STOP FIRES
IN APPA[ACH|ANS
Southern Range of Mountains
Immune From Danger Until
Early Spring.

With the SHOWS which fell in the lat
ter part of December, the fire season
in the southern Appalachian noun
tains practically closed this winter.
The record of fires on land which the
Government has acquired for national
forests was better during December
than in November.
During November forest officers re-
ported forty-seven fires on or near
Government land, while in December
there were only twelve. Part of this
decrease was due to colder weather.
In all. approximately 10000 acres have
been protected from fire during De-
cemoer. The total area burned over
will not exceed 800 acres: the foresters
consider this, as compared with the
acreage under protection, comparative
ly insignificant, and point out that it
forms less than one-twentieth Iof 1
per cent Of the area under protection.
During January and February. the
forest officers think e will not be
necessary to employ any fire fight
ers or patrolmen. However, if the snow
should disappear and the leaves get
dry. patrol will be started again. The
spring fire season usually opens about
the middle of February or the first OF
March. From this time until the green
vegetation is well established in May,
It is necessary to patrol the woods.

SAYS PARENTS ARE
TOO SENTIMENTAL
Or. Dana Tells Teachers to
Make Boys Work Harder in
School.

NEW YORK, Jal S.-Sentimentality
-'sickly sentimentalitt"-abou their
boys education is the trouble with
parents nowadays, according to DR..
Charles L. Dana, neurologist. He told
teachers this TO their faces at a dinner
of the Schoolmasters' Association.
DR.. Dana started off by asking himself
this question: rs the American school
boy overworked and likely to break
down because of the tasks imposed on
him by the present Methods
This was his answer to, the question,
in part:
"Overworked! Why, he isn't even
educated. In the course of thirty years
practice, can remember only one boy
who suffered because of overwork. and
ne had weak eyes. That, in fact, was
his principal complaint. I don't know
any group of human beings, unless they
are the college students, who find them
selves less overtaxed.
The American boy is not allowed to
work more than five days in the week,
and not over four or five hours each
dag. He is not allowed, unless he is
behind, to work during vacation, and at

GANGSTERS DRIVEN
FROM COURT ROOM
Wild Excitement as Detectives
Clear. Building in New York

Police War.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-ShOrtly before
'Dopey Benny Fein, convicted gang
ster, was to appear for sentence for as.
sault before Judge Malone, the Cimina
Courts building was thrown into the
widest excitement today when a dozen
detectives went through the corridors
and drove gangsters and gunmen SYM
pathizers of Fein into the street.
Judge Malone refused to enter his
chambers until the building had been
cleared. Sullen defiance greeted the de-
Lsctives.
Fem was given the maximum SEN
tence for second degree assault of five
years in Sing Sing. Before sentence was
PASSED he declared: Il am a victim Of
a frame-up. 1 am innocent, but I'm
game, and will take my medicine"
Although only twenty-seven, "Dopey
Benny" has been involved with the po-
lice almost constantly for years. He has
served terms in Sing Sing and Elmira.
Gunmen and gangsters were plentiful
about Judge Mulqueen's general sessions
court, anticipating a verdict in the case
or Max Minsky, charged with shooting
L" death Max Levine, chief rival OF
Dcpey Benny Fein, for leadership of
his gang after Big Jack" Selig was
shot.
IN terror lest he meet a sudden end
for "squeaiing," Nathan Perlmutter,
principal witness against Minsky, de-
manced and was given a strong police
guard when he went to court to aid in
the police war against the gunmen. d.
,Perlmutter swore he was with Levine
Ia a saloon, when four gangmen came
IN: He fled. When shots rang out he
retuSned, looked through the door and

bed. There is a sort of sickly sentiment
tality toward the growing boy on the
part of American parents.
THE idea is prevalent that study is q
dangerous thing to furnish to a boy;
that hard mental work should be given
to him only under the most careful con-
ditions, and should be taken from him
at the least excuse. The European idea
Is that after the age of ten a child is
able to do hard work and ought to do It,
The American idea is that he is able
TO do some work, and ought to be per-
suaded to do it.

impression of secondary schools. 1t
seemed to me these institutions fur

schools and the crudity and foolishness
of the new American college education,

Queen Mary's Simplicity.

Mary, Queen OF England, has given
many proofs that she Is practical per
son, and greatly disposed to do away
with as many, Of the frills associated
with her position as possible. Reports
reached her recently that some of :he
ladies who act as her deputies at 1if-
ferent social functions, as she is unable
to meet all these demands in person,
have been giving themselves more than
royal airs, thus causing much annoy
ance to the hostesses who have to re-
ceive them. The Queen has therefore
altered some of the rules regarding the
manner in which a lady representing
her at any private social function is to
be received making the reception of
Queen Mary's deputy less ceremonious
affair than hitherto. 1t Is said that now
one may be able even to sit in the
presence Of these royal substitutes with
out being given the frozen stare and the
icy rnitt.

This would have been sad news for

Nowadays, however, the woman who is
too fat for the styles goes to a druggist
and gets case of Marmola Prescription
Tablets, one of which she takes after
each meal and at. bedtime, and so re-
duces her superfluous flesh quickly.
These tablets, being made in accord
ance with the famous prescription, are
perfectly harmless, and they are, also,

"If cordial relations are to be re-

To Colombia. Friendships cannot rest
upon force: neither can they rest up
on acquiesccnce In the power Of

we offer, 1t would not restore the rela-
ti0ns tIftIUugirt 10 exist We must
satisfy their sense Of justice. although
less gum might satisfy our sense OF
Justice. In every settlement there
must be concessions and our govern
ment has not conceded more than the
requirements OF the situation demand
"Thc ratification Of the Colombian
treaty will restore the friendly rela-
tiOns which for Il century preceding
1909 existed between Colombia and the
United States. 1t will also enable
Colombia and Panama to settle their
differences and deal with each other
upon neighborly basis. More than
that It will give prestige to the United
States throughout Spanish America.
This nation can afford to be just: even
