Is Very Little Danger in Childish
 Ambitions to Reach Certain Ideals Some Aspire to Be Policemen Bricklayers As Well As the Professions and Each Made to Serve Some
 Useful Purpose

are not to be laughed away; the sheer will do more than you intend How ever unworthy the childish ambition may at first seem, it is more important to preserve the ability to dream dreams, 1t is more important to D"e- serve faith in ideals, than it is to cor rect values. Perhaps your child is capable of aspiring to something loftier than a travelling snowman; but to sheer the snowman out of his life iS not to substitute your ideal of service it is to discourage all attempts to look into the future.
 Every ideal that the child can for mulate, no matter how simple may le made to serve a useful purpose. There are virtues in every line of ac tVity, and whether the model for the time be a savage chief or a school teacher, whether it be a sailor or trained nurse, the fact that the childs 5 Imagination has been touched must be used for fixing right habits and for developing principles of action.
 Will Not Restrict Development.
 There is very little danger that the childish ideals will restrict the girl or boy in his development. They are rather to be looked upon as the means whereby the child acquires the habit of thinking of life's problems in terms Of the ideal. And this habit is worth so much that it offsets any disad- vartages that may fear for the time being.
 As children become older their idea Is will be influenced by more and more practical considerations-such as ques- tions of income and social standing
  but while they may, let children dream dreams.

Luther Canter Sentenced,

Apparently unaffected by the
gravity of the charge against him
and without a tremor of either
fear or regret, Luther Canter,
charged with the murder and
violation Of Mrs. Maude Wilson,
on April "a, plead guilty before
Judge Campbell, of the Washing
ton County Court, this morning.
Counsel for the prisoner. with
the consent of the prisoner,
waived jury trial, and after a
short hearing of witnesses for the
sole purpose of establishing the
degree of murder, Judge Camp
bell sentenced Canter to die by
electrocution. The date of the
electrocution was not set.
Immediately after the senten-
cling of Luther Canter, the indict-
ment against James Canter,
brother of the condemned man,
was read and James Canter plead
mot guilty. The court at once
began the work of selecting a
jury for the trial of the younger
of the two brothers.

Forest Fires!
Continued from third page

q few years ago, we are evidently
apr oaching a timber famine.
Our only salvation is to take
care of the young growth, and
keep out fire, which can in q few
moments destroy the growth OF
years. Already vast stretches
of land, particularly in the
mountains, have been burned
over so that they are now
covered with nothing but brush,
and are practically q barren
waste, worth nothing to any
body. And every time such
ands are burned over, the
sprouts become weaker. and the
loil Lecomes poorer aud thinner
The decaying leaves and twigs,
the humus that maks soil fer
tile, is entirely burned up by a
hot fire, aud the fine roots that
bind the soil are burned up
Consequently whelna heavy rain
falls there Is nothingsto hold the
soil, and it washes away and
alls up the rivers and harbors
with silt. (Thig silt has to be
dredged out at an expense Of
MilllaAs Of dollars every Year,.
