vi AsslsI'ht FOfeSt Ranger was
held III Oakley on October 1920,
as announced by the Civil Ser
vice Commission. Supervisor
w. M. Campbell reports that
there were seven applicants pre-
sent who took the examination.
hey were; Arthur A. Bruesch,
Wm. ID. Cahoon and Joseph H.
Bruesh ofAlmo; Walter A. Kesler,
Filler; Elex X. Peterson Of Burley
and Edward X. Tuttle and Ly-
man I. Severe of Oakley.
Forest officers report that the
tall range on the forest is except
ionally good, in spite of the un-
usual dry summer and in spite OF
he frosts of June 4 and 5, which
did 81 great deal OF damage to
some classes OF forage as we'll as
the young tree growth.
Forest Rangers have been quite
busy during the past summer in
constructing new buildings at
their permanent stations in ord
er that they might have suitable
places to live and to protect
government property.
The Supervisors office reports
that operations are already un
der way to take up the work OF
planting $4,000 Yellow Pine trees
early in the coming spring. These
trees are to be planted in what
Is commonly known as Shoshone
Basin. In future work of this
KIND Supervisor Campbell plans
To carry on extensive planting
work OH the mountain slopes
west OF Oakley, which are ofcon-
siderable Importance in the way
OF watershed protection to the
Oakley project. 1t is also planned
to establish fire lookout tele
phone station on Monument
Peak aud possibly one on Mt.
Independence east of Oakley.
Supervisor Campbell is quite en-.
thuslastic as to the possibility of
q hrst class triangula ton system
on the Minidoka Forest, that is
hy having fire patrol guards
placed on Monument Peak, Mt.
Independence, an Mormon" Noun
tam and Black Pine ouutain.
lie Officers at these places would
have orient allidades and field
glasses and W hen fire was dis
covered it could be accurately
located on maps both in the Su
pervisoi s and the Rangers head
quarters by the compass readings
rcpoted in by any two ofthe look
out guards. This would make
quick and accurate locating Of
I he fire and enable the Foret
officers to tell where it was nee
'ssary to secure men, provisions
aud tools to be rushed to the
scene of the FIRE.

I have heard what all of you have had to say, and now I want to see how we'll you are going to back up your big talks. want to see what You are going to do for the race and for our educational institution Talk never yet supported a college. It takes money to run one. Realize this and you will assist in paying off that debt on our school Back up your talk.
 ''It is an easy thing to give advice. l have been listening to advice ever since l have been negro, and I am told that ] have never been anything else. They have been telling me what to do and how to do it. In many in stances I have been benefited ana helped, and some of the advice I hat to lei pass by. I think much of the man who gives me advice and his word is respected in the commercial and business world. His name is good on a paper. like to listen to such a man, but the man who is a failurs at every thing else except giving ad- wise don't amount to anything with me. We have many who are simply race leaders with nothing behind them.
 'Wc the fathers, have erected for you an educational institution in Lit tie Rock. It is one of the best in the country for our people. the Arkansas Baptist college. Are you willing ty carry it on and take care of it if we should die and leave it to you? You will have to put down money and not so much talk"
 "We will do our part" responded the Rev. R. B. Porter, representing the young men. "We come to this meeting with money and. you have only to tell us now what you want us to do and it will be done."

 Missions was the theme discussed ] last night at the First Baptist church, which was not large enough to hold the large crowd. Dr. J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock, presided. The open ] ing exercises were impressive, and | full of inspiration. The Rev. Dr. l.. G. Jordan, of Philadelphia, was in- 1 reduced and delivered an address. He spoke of what had been done dur ing the year by the National Baptist convention for foreign missions, an | what was yet to be done.
 NegrO's Work to Redeem Africa. Dr. Jordan thought that it was Gods plan to have the negro brought here as slave and trained and then return to Africa to redeem Africa. He could see only the hand of God ia l it all, and while the race should nut go as whole, they should send mis- sionaries. He said that they were bringing to America natives training them and sending them back. The picture shown by Dr. Jordan of th3 heathens suffering and how they were dying without the knowledge of God brought tears to many eys and | when he appealed for a collection men and women weeping rushed to | the table. It was one of the largest collections ever lifted for Christian missions in the convention

minutes after o'clock Saturday

was then stopped dead, and Capt
Roberts signalled with his siren to this
effect. The Pretoria responded that
she would try TO pass the New YORK,

Then the bow of the Pretoria loom

cabin passengers. The resolution said:
I'VE the undersigned passengers
