Fire Protective Assee.ssIes poIr|
Good Work

Elkins, w. Va, November l.-Senti-J
ment for the better protection of West
Virginia forests and tor the conservation
oil one OF the states principal resources
really became crystalized when the Cen
trail West Virginia Fire Protective AS
ISOLATION was organized last spring. In
the short space OF its existence, acting i'm
conjunction with the state and national
governments il has shown how 30 much
can be accomplished with little effort
toward saving property from fire, that il
has given considerable impetus TO the
movement for greater protection through
out the state.
There are thirteen lookout stations
scattered over a large area OF the forests
OF the state, commanding view OF all
the timber in the central part of the State,
these stations being connected by tele-
phone. In addition TO the lookout
stations, erected at the highest points for
purposes OF observation, there are four
patrol routes. The Federal government
under the provisions of the Weeks law
has provided watchmen and patrolmen
In order TO more thoroughly protect the
forests the Association has employed S
patrolmen and has authorized the en-
ployment of two moro. AS a result OF
the association, and the state and national
governments there have been no forest
fires OF any consequence i'm the forests
- Al
thousands of dollars worth of property
has been saved.
An instance OF the value of such sys-
TEN as has been established is furnished
by fire which recently broke out in the
Red Creek country. The fire was ob.
| served in a lookout station AZ miles
away and in less than fifteen minutes
after the fire was observed force of men
were at work extinguishing that fire, be.
fore it had covered one quarter of an
acre.
1t was necessary for the owners Of large
areas OF timber to demonstrate what
could be done before it was possible &c
impress the owners of small tracts with
what it was possible to do but since SO
great saving has been effected, farmer.
and owners of small tracts have shown 8
good deal of interest in the work of TN,
association and are now enrolling them
selves as members. A cent an acre is al
it costs to secure the protection needed
and Secretary Geo. w. Wilson of vii lell
IS receiving many applications for mem
bership.
The greatest results have been accom-
plished however. in arousing public sen
timcnt to an appreciation of the necessit,
OF forest protection and forest conser
walton. With an appreciation of tn,
necessity for protection and conservation
will come demand for greater activit,
on the part of the state. In few year
much of the land which has been Gu
over will produce profitable secon,
growth and it is necessary that such ,
second growth should be given an oppor
tunity TO thrive without danger of de
struction by fire.

MISTAKEN

THE ARGUS desires to reply to that part
Of Mr.. Frank +. Parrack's letter, in
which he says:
The fact that at the time the ballot
commissioners were in session at King
wood was watching at the bedside OF
my dead brother on our little farm four
miles south of Terre Alta could not avail
to save me from their spleen"
Inasmuch as TnE ARGUS did not even
know that Mr.. Parrack's brother was
ILL, much less dead, completely reiutes
that charge. Besides, The ARGUS made
no PERSONAL attack on any one dur
ing the campaign. Ii dealt exclusively
with thosc who were managing campaigns
and those who were candidates on their
public records and upon the principles
for which they stood and asked 10 be
elected TO public office.
Mr.. Parrack, as chairman of the Re-
publican organization of this county, did
not hesitate to do that which would inure
to the benefit Of the party which he rep
resents, and he should be fair enough to
accord that privilege to his opponents.
THE ARGUS did not utter one word agains,
Mr.. Parrack that can be construed as
spleenish, and it wants to assure the
gentleman that had it known of the
serious illness of his brother, or his
death, it would not have mentioned Mr.
Parrack's name during the sad hours oil
his afiliction and irreparable loss. Or
the contrary, it begs to assure him OF its
sincere sympathy.

Fruit Show at The State universI,,

On January Z, s and 8, 1915 the Annual
Fruit Show of the College of Agriculture

Show held by the State Horticultural
Society at Charleston, w. Va, in Deem
Der should not be confessed with this
exhibition held at the State University at
Morgantown. Professor Alderman, head
OF the Horticultural Department, states
that he expects to fill the entire University
armory with fruit on this occasion. The
last College Fruit Show was said to have
been the largest ever held in West Vir-
ginia and plants are now under way to
nearly double the size OF this previous
exhibition. Fruit growers all over the
state are requested to save out exhibition
fruit as they are picking and packing
their crop this tall and send this to Pro
lessor w. II. Alderman, at Morgantown,
where it will be placed in storage until
the time OF the show. 1t is proposed to
arrange the individual exhibitions by
counties so that some idea may be OBJ
tanned as to which are the best fruit grow
ing regions OF the state. The growers
who take pride in their own orchards
and the orchards OF their vicinity should
see to it that some fruit from their section
comes to Morgantown.
AT the time of the Fruit show fruit
Judging contest between college terms
from several neighboring states will be
held at Morgantown. Fruit from these
states will also be exhibited. Unless
West Virginia growers prepare now to
meet that competition it is possible that
some OF the other states may make a
better showing than our own. Two
years ago at the College Show, West Vir.

no reason why this record should not be

The Fail Of Antwerp

In all military history of the future
the capture of Antwerp must necessarily
be landmark. Here, briefly, terribly,
the superiority of the gun over the fort
OF the mechanic over the engineer, was
demonstrated. Aside from Paris, there
was no city so strongly fortified as Ant
werp. Unlike Paris, its position on the
neutralized Scheldt and near the Dutch
frontier prevented complete investment.
Along its southern front, ten miles dis
tant, the Nethe flowed through deep
marshes, forming natural moat,
strengthened by forts once held i'm
pregnable.
Before these forts, in trenches long ago
prepared, stood the whole Belgian field
army, presently reinforced by British
marines. All that the art OF the engineer,
all that the courage of brave men fight
ing with their backs to the wall could
contribute to making fortress impreg-
nable, were to be found in the ancient
Flemish city.
Yet before the German artillery Ant
werp's defenses crumbled with incredible
rapidity. What the 42-centimetre gun
had accomplished at Liege, at Namur, at
Maubeuge, but hitherto a veil, it now
did in the full sight of the whole world.
In less than a week those forts which had
been pronounced impregnable were heaps
oil dust and ashes and German troops
had forced the river defenses, the field
trenches, driving the Belgians before
them. BY October the Krupp shells
were falling about the noble tower of
the AntwerY cathedral. The city and
the suburbs were breaking out in flames
The end was in sight.
The next day the field army of Belgium.

companied by the British contingent.
made good its escape TO join the Allied
armies, still moving up from the south.
but all too late Meanwhile. by every
ship, train. road, thousands OF refugees
fleeing from the shells that we're falling
in Antwerp, flowed out to Holland, to
England, to France A new migration
of people had begun.
The end came on October 8, when the
city surrendered, the remaining Belgian
forces escaping to Holland and there lay
ing down the arms they had welded so
valiantly. Not "A city, but nation, had
fallen. For England only less than for
Belgium, the fall OF Antwerp had been a
terrible blow. The "pisto point at the
heart OF England" as Napoleon had
described the city, was now in hands of
William III.
With the fail of Antwerp and that of
Ostend, which promptly followed on
October 10, British public opinion at last
recognized that new Napoleonic war.
with the same issues and many of the
same circumstances, was before them
From Ostend British observers already
foretold the launching of German sub
