1t is a rather startling innovation for
minister to request his audience to en-
gage in fire drill; yet it is not alto
gether an unreasonable idea in view Of
the fact that many church fires are 90.
curing nowadays and from causes that
are very obscure. Therefore, the pastor
of the Dorchester, Mass, church who on
Sunday last, conducted fire drill with
out warning and emptied his church in
two minutes and one-half aided mate
rally toward the protection of the peo-
pie who are accustomed to worship in
his church edifce. In case of real cause
for hasty clearing of the church, the ac-
customed church-goers there will be in
a better position to make quick exit and
under conditions the least like panic.
The FIRE drill in the church is almost as
valuable as the fire drill in the school or
the theatre.

Persons in Washington county who
are interested in forestry ought to get
together and avail themselves of the op.
portunity to get visit from forestry
expert. State Forester A. f. Halves has
asserted that an expert will be sent into
each county on request, in order to give
practical demonstrations. Without doubt
that which the expert might be able to
impart would prove of great value to
the forestry interests of Washington
county.

of a $4,000 action in which a former
patient is litigant. At the same time
it is probable that the conditions are
not as bad as pictured during this trial
through the skilfuI manipulation of wit
