FIRE WATCH TOWERS.
New Design Adopted by Forest Com
missioner Viles.
Surry, Me-, 1914.

New Design Adopted by Forest Com
missioner Viles.
For the protection from fire OF the great
timber lands of northern Maine, Forest
Commissioner Viles has designed a fire
tower by means of which a fire in any
locality may be located at once.
The height of the towers will range from
twelve to sixty feet, according to the loca-
ton. house will be constructed on top
of the tower, eight feet square on the out
side, having twelve windows, three on a
side. The houses will be six feet high
from floor to roof-plate, with a roof pitch
OF so degrees.
Each house will be provided with slid
ing table running diagonally across the
house. The tables will be provided with
an alidade and protractor by which the di-
rection OF fire may be determined and
definitely located from any station. The
tables will be of circular nature resting
on trucks running on track. The loca-
ton OF the fires will be determined from a
fixed point north. For instance, one tow
er may discover that a fire is in progress
% QbSISCS NSSt VI hOitht SSteihB tAto "a ~
by locating the blaze by means of the ali
dade and then taking the number of de-
grees any direction from north from the
protractor. Another station may locate
the same fire in the same manner as 27 de-
grees west of north. Wherever the lines
running out from each of the towers in
tersect will determine the exact loca.
ton of the fire. Each of the stations will
be provided with telephone, and as soon
as fire is discovered a call is sent to the
main station and squad of men at once
sent to the scene.
The material for the towers will be of
medium O. I'll. steel. The houses will be
painted slate gray, and each provided with
a flag staff and flag. The watch man
climbs the tower by a steel ladder-enter-
ing the house by means OF trap-door in
the floor. The keeper or Waterman for
each tower will live in a camp close by.
Twenty of the towers are about COM
pleted. Some of them have already been
shipped. Commissioner Viles states that
he has over 300 applications for jobs as
watchmen.
One of the first towers to be shipped will
be located on Schoodic mountain, in town
ship 9, Hancock county. Fred S. Bunker,
of Franklin, is the chief warden in charge
here. The department is also considering
the erection OF a tower at plantation 80.

words Ihat Mean Something.
WASHINGTON, ID. e., March 8, 1914.
To the Editor Of The american:
The Union station in Washington, one
of the finest and largest railroad stations
in the world, has, cut in the marble under
the roof over each entrance, one or two
sentences, each letter being foot long so
that they who run may read. l will
quote only four OF them, as there are quite
a number Of entrances to the station:
OVER THE PRESIDENTS ENTRANCE.
Let all the ends thou aimst at be Thy
Country,
Thy God and Truth. Be noble, and the
nobieness
dead,
win rise n majesty to meet thine own.
OVER MAIN ENTRANCE.
The Farm, best home of the family,
Main source of national wealth,
Foundation of civilized society,
The national providence.
OVER ANOTHER MAIN ENTRANCE.
Electricity, carrier OF light and power, de-
vourer OF time and space, bearer of human
speech ONtE lauh anu sea- sIthbtsb stENaul oI
man-itself unknown.
OVER THE TAxI-CAB ENTRANCE.
He that would bring back the wealth of the
Indies must carry the wealth OF the Indies
with him. So it is in travelling. A man must
carry knowledge with him II he would bring
home knowledge.
The last quotation would seem, at first
k,,t
there never was truer sentence written.
Take the young man who leaves the
country for the city. II he ever expects,
some day, to bring home wealth or know
ledge, he must carry with him education,
right principles, love and respect for his
parents, honesty and fair dealings with
men. On the other hand, the young man
who starts out in life with incorporate
and vicious ma bits is about sure, If he ever
comes back home, to bring back the same
old rubbish Of mind that he took away.
| once visited an art gallery in Phila-
delphia where | noticed a crowd before
one picture. After waiting a few minutes,
/ got chance to view the picture from
the right distance. The name in the cata-
logue was Fog. At first glance the
picture showed only misty, open sea,
and in the foreground two fishermen clad
in oilskins in dory hawking lobster traps,
but after looking at the picture minute,
an old schooner under full sail was seen in
the distance, then an island covered with
pointed fir trees doomed up out of the fog.
The young man who left the city to
paint that picture along our coast must
have carried with him a determination to
succeed, and therefore did succeed under
the most trying conditions - week of
foggy weather.
Two girls were staying at summer re-
sort, both sent there by their parents to
gain health and strength. One, bubbling
with good nature, happiness and fun, found
everything just perfectly charming, gained
a pound day and enjoyed every minute
OF her vacation. The other girl, at the
same place under precisely the same con-
ditions, found everything just horrld, and
derived no benefit whatever from her trip
to the seashore.
Whether in this life one has more sun
shine than shadows can be told in one
word-disposition.
