WORKING For SAFETY.

A crusade of newspapers of Chicago
has resulted in the quick passage of a
law in that city against the indiscrim.
mate sale Of fire arms. The enormous
number of deaths traceable each year
to the fact that guns" were carried
by large portion OF the population,
finally dawned upon the public and
when the matter was properly voiced
in the public press, the council was
compelled to act. The new law is
even more drastic than that which
prevails in Iowa People who wish to
purchase or carry arms must have a
permit from the chief OF police and
people who already have them must
have a permit or risk being fined a
minimum of $780,, Furthermore, deal
ers are barred from displaying deadly
weapons where they can be seen from
the street and all persons who secure
permits to carry or purchase weapons
must pay tax of 81 and furnish as
reference for good character the
names of two taxpayers.

clear now and dry enough to burn
readily
From the Canadian border to Mexico
the reports are similar, and there have
already been extensive fires in Cali
fornia and Arizona.
The chief forester reports. however
that the fire-flghting forces of the ser.
vice are organized better than ever be-
fore, particularly in respect to the
fire detection system Of lookout sta
tions. BY means of these stations fires
are reported quickly and accurately
so that the control forces may be on
the ground at the earliest possible
moment. - i
In those states where the gravest
danger threatens. especial efforts are
being made by the government fores
tiers and by cooperative fire protection
associations organized among timber
land owners. to secure care with fire
on the part of campers. prospectors
|loggers. and by railroads. The north
western forestry and conservation as
sociation, with headquarters at Port
land, Oregon, is one of the leaders in
this campaign.

THE FRIENDLY LIAR.

Here's to the man who lies to us who's
careless of the truth.
Who slaps US on the back and says.
Gee! how you hold your youth
Who shrinks not at the future when
he has a lie to tell,
But when you're sick and tired and
blue, declares You're looking
Welt"
Here's to the man who tells US lies
when solemn truth would hurt:
Who says, "I'll back you through ana
through, if it should take my
shirt;
who, when you're off and cannot
write just as you think you
should,
Will tune you up for better things
with, That's what call good"
or, when you paint a picture that IS
wrong in every part,
Will make you think the daub is great
by saying, Nov, that's art!
He lies-but it's in charity, II ly1nA
ever was,
So here's his health, for though ne
lies, he's honest when he does.
