NATIONAL FORESTS Becoming
RECOGNIZED AS Fairgrounds

That over a million and half peo-
pie use the National Forest, as play
grounds each year was the state
ment made by Henry S. Graves, Chief
of the Forest Service, before the
American Forestry Association Fri
day. Located as they are," said
Mr.. Graves, "the National Forests
comprise many regions Of superb
scenery and unexcelled recreation at
traction. In very real sense these
attractions Of the Forests constitute
a natural resource that must be safe
guarded, utilized, and developed.
Mr.. Graves stated that a quarter
of a century had passed since the
establishment tot the first National
Forests by law which marked the
beginning of a new and more enlight-
ened method Of public land admins
tration. The nineteenth century land
system, he said, was one wholly of
land distribution, which was success
full as applied to agricultural lands
but unsuccessful as applied to non
agricultural lands chiefly valuable
for growing timber. The keynote of
the present-day policy is to secure
such distribution, use and develop
ment Of the public lands as will rem
der the maximum service to the pub
lie. "The country has recognized
that public lands of chief value for
forest purposes and essential to pro-
tect water resources should remain
under public CONTROL" Mr. Graves
continued. ''The struggle is now on
as to who shall own and control the
public water-sites, the coal, the oil,
the phosphate and potassium depo-
sits and the common grazing lands
that are not suited to development
by individuals under any of the
homestead laws"
"Inumerable localities on the Ma
tional Forests, which are generally
known, have a wealth of scenic beau
ty," Mr.. Graves said. A very prac-
tical problem, he stated, is that of
opening up and making these great
public properties available for as
wide use as possible by people of lit
tie means as we'll as the wealthy.
"The recreation features of the
National Forests are fostered in a
variety of ways. Areas of scenic
value are set aside as camping sites
and are withdrawn from any use
which would reduce their beauty.

DR.. GEORGE C. GILBERT
GIVES ADVICE ON GRIPPE
Fresh Air is the Only Cure Known
for This Troublesome
Affliction.

DIR. Geo. C. Gilbert, formerly of
this village, gives advise on how to
''at grippe in a late issue of the
and Rapids Herald Review. The
;icle follows:
What can be done to escape the
'ippe, and what should be done
when the grippe grips you.
These are questions to which
Grand Rapids people are trying to
find answers during the epidemic
now raging in this village.
The answer to both questions is
this: "Get plenty of fresh air."
according to DR.. George C. Gilbert.
LA grippe is ger mdisease," ex-
planned DR.. Gilbert, zone of the
most prolific germ diseases known.
The germs multiply with remarkable
rapidity and the affection is extre-
mely contagious. The disorders
commonly known as "colds'' or Gin
fluenza" are but milder forms of the
same disease.
"The very best treatment known
for colds and grippe is fresh air.
People whose homes are we'll venti-
lated, who sleep with their windows
open and who get plenty of outdoor
exercise seldom have the grippe or
seldom suffer from colds. Grippe is
more prevalent in cold weather be-
cause people shut themselves in hot
rooms where the ventilation is poor
and where the air becomes stale. 1t
is these conditions that are most
conducive to the development of the
germs. Fresh air is the one thing
that will kill the germs. Very Of
ten, when feels an attack coming on,
it can be knocked out by taking a
long, brisk walk. AS soon as the
people learn to build houses that
are properly ventilated, and learn to
take regularly at least half an hours
vigorous exercise outdoors every day
grippe and colds will disappear.
There is little that can be done
to cure grippe except to get fresh
air. Any other treatment is merely
palliative. In many cases, however,
there are local affections which sould
receive special treatment. In the
present epidemic there is consider
able sore throat, and this condition,
of course, can be treated effectively.
1.-THE greatest danger from siege
of grippe is the fact that it weak
ems the system and makes it more
susceptible to the attack of germs
of more deadly diseases, Persons
whose power of resistance are slight
become easy victims to pneumonia,
bronchitus,. tuberculosis, ETC., after
suffering from the grippe
"The best advice l can give to the
people who want to dodge the grippe
is to breathe fresh air morning, noon
and night
