Every part of the forest is readily
accessible not only for patroling for
fire during the danger season, but for
the quick transportation of freight
ing appliances. In case a fire should
start in this forest and be discovered
within a reasonable time it would be
easy to confine it to a small area.
We can not expect to have such
well-organized system of roads and
fire lines in our forests for a long

The foliage of the trees has now
fallen sufficiently to show the presence
of the winter nests of the brown-ta
moths in such places as there are any.
and the absence of these is marked
everywhere, there being a few scat
tered nests where last year the trees
in some sections were covered, which
gives rise to the belief that the work
of destroying the nests this fall and
winter will, in the city Of Augusta at
any rate, be an easy matter. One place
i'm particular where the scarcity of the
winter nests of the moth is noticeable
as compared with the number last
year is the big elm just south of the
east end of the Kennebec bridge. Last
year the top of the tree was covered
with nests, but Friday an inspection
of the tree showed but very few in
dications of anything of the kind
There were several dead leaves attach
ed to the upper branches, some of
which might or might not be moth
nests, and the same holds good in the
case of some other trees. Vigilance
should not be relaxed however, be-
cause of the apparent scarcity of
ne sstand what few there should be
destroyed. In connection with this
matter the city has taken the usual
precautions and at the last meeting
of the city council the same arrange
ments were made for fighting the
moths as were made last year.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.

r. A. Waite. Jr. of New York city
will deliver three addresses in this
city Sunday. He will speak at the
10.30.service to the congregation of the
First Congregational church In the
afternoon he win give a talk at the
boys meeting to be held in the gym
nasium of the new Y. NJ. C. a. at go
and at 4 o'clock will address the first
mems meeting to be held under the
auspices of the association. The mems
meeting will likewise occur in the
gymnasium. At both the afternoon
gatherings special music will be fur
nished by double quartet of boys.
This mems meeting is deserving of
especial notice. 1t will be the first of
a series which will regularly be held
on the last Sunday of each month and
indicates the birth of one of the big
gest phases of association work in this
community. 1t is opportunity fortu-
nate that Mr. Waite is to be the man
who will be the speaker. His ability
as a speaker is widely known. He
accomplishes results. His method is
not of the fire eating sort but his
speeches are probably more effective
from his remarkable capacity to hit
the nail on the head and drive it home
to stay.

This afternoon and evening are the
last two chances to see the best set of
photo plays ever shown in Augusta
as one program. This is broad state
ment, but an absolutely true one. Take
look at the following titles and char
acters.
The TREY o. Hearts" is making a
whirlwind finish and is better than
ever. This picture has been the big
gest drawing card that the Colonial
has ever had. Many people regret that
there are not three more instalments
of this great serial.
King Baggott is at his best in
two-part Imp feature. THE Man Who
Was Misunderstood" King is an old
time favorite and always pleases his
audience.
Our Mutual Girl" is little out of
the ordinary this week. The picture
is of an interesting nature, and affords
the women chance to see the very
latest styles.
Our old friend Ford Sterling is with
us again, this time in THE Talk OF
the Hat"
j. Warren Kerrigan is in a Victor
drama of a mysterious nature. He is
always good.
Then comes little Charlie Chaplin
in one of his best comedies, THE New
Janitor."
The management certainly feels
proud that it is able to offer such an
extremely good program.

and two full shows tonight. -Advt.

vailing odds:
Five to three the jury disagrees.
Four to three that Becker is ac-

Chances of conviction were quoted

1t is said that east side gamblers
have raised large sum of money and
are eagerly grabbing every bet offered
by persons who believe that the for

The fate of Becker is now in the
hands of the jury. The second trial
of the police official endede at 1928

jury. The courts instructions were

corroborated the testimony of these
three witnesses a verdict of guilty
should be returned.
