STUDY NEW PLANS
Forest Service to Investigate
Damages to Forests by
Insects and Erosion

The Forest Service has completed
plans for the study of damage to
timber trees in Arizona and New
Mexico from bark beetles; this study
will be made by an expert who has
just completed his training at Cor.
nell University. While no attack
has yet been reported to the district
office, it is desired to study the
characteristics of dangerous insects
in order that precautionary meas
ures may be taken.
A study of erosion is also planned
owing to excessive grazing, espec-
tally by goats. In the vicinity of
Cuba, New Mexico, erosion has al
ready reached a dangerous stage,
but the study is not to be confined
to that locality. Every forest in
the district will be canvassed in an
endeavor to take steps to prevent
the damage becoming so great that
the agricultural future of fertile
valleys may be endangered.

from the text: "For We shall not 90 out
with haste, nor by flight; for the Lord
| will go before you; and the God of
Israel will he your rear guard" Now
this passage of Sculptures was written
| by the old prophet before the days OF
the automobile and he could not have
known, therefore, that the presence of
the Lord both before and as rear
guard was not a sufficient protection in
this age OF haste and get there"
Work days one can see many narrow
escapes by people trying to cross Main
street at busy time when teams and
autos moving at altogether too fast
pace for their safety or that OF others,
are rushing mp and down the street in
their mad haste TO get somewhere in
the shortest possible time; but it does
seem that on the Sabbath when some
people are inclined to attend divine
services, they might expect to be able
to cross our Main street without fear of
being run down by team or auto.
One is led to wonder whether pedes-
TRANS any longer have any right on our
Main street either on work days or Sun
day. The driver of the car, which was
the cause of the accident referred to,
probably was not more careless than
hundreds Of others who are driving
autos, and it is safe TO presume that
this experience will be a sufficient les
son so that similar accident will not
happen again when he is at the wheel.
Nevertheless, word OF warning to all
autoists to use more care at our con-
gested street corners and more regard
for the rights OF pedestrians might be of
some benefit at this time.
Additional city statutes to govern this
speed mania of the autoists should not
be- necessary nor should it be required
for the city TO station policemen at our
street corners on Sabbath morning TO
safely pilot churchgoers across, but a
little good sound common sense dis
played by those at the wheels of the |
autos should be all that is required to
prevent such accidents as the one re-
terred to.
Auto drivers, remember that pedes- |
TRANS as well as you have rights on our
streets.

THE ANNUAL BACCALAUREATE
WASTE.

The average graduating student hears
some splendid advice in the usual bac-
calaureate and goes out and forgets it,
much to his own loss One reason for
this is that the presentation of the good
advice comes at time when the mem
bers of the outgoing senior class are en-
crossed to the limit of their physical and
mental capacity with the commencement
week programs with which they are
more intimately connected as actual par
Elephants. Some have their minds CEN
tered on efforts to win prize and dis
tinction at the annual prize speaking
contest; some are committing to mem
DRY their own compositions which they
are scheduled to present at a date in the
near future; some may still be engaged
in the throes OF final examinations to
determine whether or not they shall re-
ceive their coveted diplomas; some are
busily occupied with the administrative
affairs of commencement week and their
attention is so well taken up that they
have little time 20 indulge in serious
contemplation of advice regarding the
near but still rather dimly sensed life
outside of the school or college; and
Others may be called upon to do duties
which call them to entirely different
lines of thought and endeavor in the
rush and feverish excitement of com
mencement week.
Therefore, it is little wonder that the
address, however grandly
conceived, however practicable to every
day life, however forcefully presented,
loses much of its good influence over the
of the graduating class to
which it is most directly presented. In
asmuch as the participation of the stu
dents themselves in the commencement
exercises of the week is feature that
ought to be maintained, it seems that
the only remedy, if the splendid advice
