MAKING THE GUESTS ROOM A
 HAVEN

ZzuHEN a guest retires to her room
 W it is to be assumed by her
 W hostess that she wishes to be
 alone for a while. There are
 hostesses who in their endeavor to entertain the visitor are for ever tapping at her door with one pleasant little excuse after an other-a proposed plan for the even ing, forgotten bit of gossip which must be related while in mind, an as- surs-r,-' that everything Is comfort able and that the guest is happy, and so forth. Many a guest would enjoy her visit if she were only permitted to be alone occasionally for even half an hour. The thoughtful hostess also provides the guestroom with low reading lamp and puts a cosy chair beside it, and a plate of dainty biscuit or little cakes is ready for midnight bite if the guest not used to the early hours of the household, prefers to sit up a while after retiring to her room.

of he Fair, there will be special, one
day rates, when excursions will be run
over the different roads,. These trims
will be SO arranged that the round trip
may be made within a day and night
The railways are interested in the
Fair. They realize that it means gem
eral development in the country, and
that better business later on for
the railroads. They are showing their
interest by giving such low rates that
almost everybody will be enabled ia
make the trip.
The rates this year apply within a
radius embracing East Texas. South
Arkansas and Louisiana. Immense
crowds are expected.

Especial Frankfort Correspondence
Frankfort.-Thea acquisition OF forest
reserves in the watersheds of Eastern
urged by State Forester ]. E. Barton
in an address before the joint meeting
of the Appalachian park commission
land the North Carolina Forestry asso-
citation at Asheville, April 8. The
general assembly passed a bill author
izing the government to acquire forest
reserves in the state, and Forester
Barton has received assurance from
w. F. L. Hall, assistant forester for
the government, that reconnaissance
will be made by his department this
summer in the Kentucky mountains
with view to purchasing such re-
serves. Mr.. Barton will meet Chief
Forester H. S. Graves and Mr. Hall at
Asheville.
The governments Appalachian re-
serves will be administered as the re-
serves are in the west. The purpose
is to protect the wooded watersheds
for the conservation of soil and the
regulation of flow in the streams The
government purchases the land and
takes over complete control, excepting
the criminal jurisdiction of the state
Forester Barton is of the opinion that
the demonstrations conducted by the
government on such reserves will do
more for the advancement of forestry
in Kentucky than any other factor.
The federal bureau of forestry re-
forests denuded areas, cares for its
reserve in scientific fashion, sells the
ripe trees and regulates the manner of
removing them so as to protect the
younger growth, and demonstrates
by its methods the possibility of con-
serving the timber resources while
yielding continuous revenue
Mr.. Barton went to Harlan April 1
and assisted in completing the organi-
cation of the Bell County Association
of Timber Growers, and from there he
will go to Asheville.
The forestry department expects to
purchase some land, as far as the
funds will permit, for demonstration
purposes this year. enlarge the tree
