COLLEGE AND RIFLE CLUBS
 FAIL TO GET AMMUNITION
(By Associated Press9

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6.-Colleges and rifle clubs in all parts of the coun- try are seeking a suspension of the government rule denying them am- intuition from the stores of the United States army, officials of the Western department of the army stated here recently. Some months ago they were told that they would receive no ammunition from the army, but should purchase all they desired from other sources.
 Army officials here are at work on a scheme to satisfy the demand in part at least The colleges and gun clubs have grown to such important military factors, the officials say, that their need for ammunition is great. Few of them have set fl ds for purchasing this ammunition.
 The army men are also considering a communication scheme of supply ing these colleges and clubs with which to buy ammunition, instead of opening the army stores to them.

ROADS AND TRAILS NECESSARY
 IN CALF
(By Associated Press)


 SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 7.-The opening up of Eureka and other coast points to important inland points in northern and central California and Oregon through roads and trails in the isolated Trinity and Klamath Ma tional forests is now being effected by the National forestry service in cooperation with the state highway commission. The Salmon river road, which will take ten years to com plete, will be the principal artery be- tween these points. The govern ment is contributing $75,O00 and Sis kiyou county $1O,OOO a year for this project This road will open up a badly isolated region.
 A 26 mile road is also being con- structed down the south fork of the Trinity river in the Trinity National forest, which will also open up a isalated region to settlement. This road will eventually become lateral of the main trunk highway between Red Bluff and Eureka.

NORWAY |S NOW INTERESTED IN
 AMERICA
(By Associated PressD

CHRISTIANIA, Dec. 7.-The part of the United States in the war is the subject of continual stream of articles in the Norwegian newspapers. Norwegian interest in things Ameri- ca has always been much keener than that in the other Scandinavian coun- tries, but it has never been more pro nounced than now.
 The newspaper Morgen Bladet, which has never been quite so favor ably disposed to the entente as most of the Christiania newspapers, has shown a strong pro-American bias since the entrance of the United States into the war. In leading editorial it says:
 America is now the focus of war preparations The experiences of three years war on all fronts are being profitably assimilated, and the most systematic military training is being practiced under French and English officers. Special commits sions from Europe superintend the manufacture of all that is needed by sea, by land, and in the air. Ammu- milton making is being driven on with unheard of intensity, standardization of air machines, experiment. with new weapons, new technical inventions in every field. If there is any place where we can learn things, it is in America today.
 Norwegian naval and military at- taches should be at once sent to Am erica. In the future Norway will have to obtain more of her war ma terial from the United States, and it is very important to strengthen our legation ill Washington"
