in the history of the organization, is

Board Makes Decision

Whether or not the high school will
continue for a three-year period the
commercial department, now so ably
handled by c. G. Wilson, was matter
that brought out considerable discus
sion when the board was called on to
make contract with typewriter firm
for the rental of typewriters for the de-
partment for that period at the rate
of 81 per month per machine. There
was some difference of opinion between
members of the board in signing such
contract in view of the absence of
data indicating that sufficient money
will be on hand for continuing the de-
partment for an extended period. I'm
der the contract order presented the
board would practically agree to main
tain the department for three-yeaf
period, because it would be obliged
to pay for the machines for three
years. AS a compromise it was agreed
to rent the machines for a period dur
ing the present school year and the
secretary was instructed to so notify |
he typewriter firm.
Superintendent Randall made an ex
ended and interesting report on the
'esult of tests made in burning of both
wood and coal at the high school
The test was in favor of
wood under the present conditions,
lowever, the board took no definite ac-
ion with relation to the matter. After
flowing a number of bills an adjourn
lent was taken.

President Laird's Report.
"In many ways the fire season just
closed marks an epoch in the history
of this association We have confined
season to less than 20 acres and the
total damage done by forest fires in an
area almost equal to that of some of
our smaller eastern states to $4,000
feet of timber, which was merely fire
killed and was logged within a few
weeks without appreciable loss.
Idaho participated for the first time |
that year in the appropriation of the |
forests on the watersheds of inter-
state navigable streams and the Pot
atch Timber Protective association Sc
cured portion of the funds set aside
or Idaho out of this appropriation.
ANY misgivings which might have
,een entertained at one time by lum-
and timbermen as to the wis
om of giving the federal forest service
my voice in the affairs of an associa-
ion made up entirely of practical bus
ness men engaged in an effort to save
