REFoRESTlNG THE NOUN
TAINS OF PENNSYLVANIA
MINING SECTION

Hazelton, Pa, May 14.-Because
the operators of anthracite coal mines
need timber, an impetus has been
given to the reforestation Of the
mountains and hills in the mining
region. The scarcity of lumber for
mine pillars and other mine uses has
led to the creation of forestry de.
partment by several of the large min
ing companies ,one of which has just
reforested Bear Creek watershed with
5000 white pine and 5000 Norway
spruce trees. Thirty thousand more
trees are in process Of cultivation at
Hauto, Pa, in the Panther Creek
Valley.
If timber is ready to cut In the
vicinity of the mines the troublesome
waits and long hauls will be elimi-
mated. More timberland in the an
thracite region would stop floods, add
to the water supply, reduce the
drought periods and enable the an
thractie industr yto add to its output.
This would be done through better
protection thus afforded to the strip
ping areas in mines which would add
to the speeding-up ability. Many
thousands Of acres are available
about the mines for reforestation.

NO DESCENDANTS OF MAY.
FLOWER PILGRIMS IN LONDON
(By Associated Press.)

London, May 14.--If there are in
England any descendants of the little
band of Pilgrims who sailed in the
Mayflower 29S years ago. they are
difficult to discover. An American
woman livin gin London has been try
ing to find them, and with that object
she inserted advertisements asking
any "Mayflowers" now in London to
meet her at hotel at certain hour.
The appointed hour came, and the
American woman waited. A moving
picture photographer, several newspa-
per photographers and dozen re-
porters arrived and were mistakenly
and enthusiastically greeted as May
flowers. There was an air of eager
expectancy and suppressed excite
ment. Everybody waited for forty.
FIVE minutes, but not a single May
flower" appeared. There were signs
Of disappointment
"But there must be some 'Mayfiow.
ers' in London" said the American
woman to the reporters. "I can't bt
the only one" She looked again al
the door. but there was no sound o.
footsteps, and the meeting adjourned

GENERAL PERSHING PAYS FOR
AN OLD PEASANT LADY'S PIG
KILLED BY q. s. MILITARY AUTO
(By Associated Press

Paris, May 1.-THE French papers
delight in anecdotes of the good rela-
tons between the American soldiers
and the peasants. One of these stories
with which General Pershing's name
is coupled is printed this week
"a big American military automo-
lille tore through French village
Yesterday on its way to an American
CAMP" says Lyons paper. "Unfor'
tunately a pig belonging to an OLD
peasant woman strayed into the path
Of the car and was killed. The old
lady was heart-broken. But Few
days later a letter came for her en-
closing a check for hundred francs
and saying how sorry the writer was
for the death of the pig.
"The signature was that OF General
lPershing."

TRAINING DOGS TO LEAD
SIGHTLESS SOLDIERS

Plessis-Trevise, France, May IA
Training of dogs to lead the blind
has become an important institution
here where thousands of animals will
eventually be prepared to lead sight
less soldiers. The work Is being
done under the direction of the mill
tary authorities by amateurs who
owned kennels of police and hunting
dogs before the war.
Several hundred poodles are contin-
ually trotting about the neighbor-
hood and through the village, some Of
them graduates" Of the big training
school leading "poilus' who left their
sight in the trenches or in the battle
field. This real experience puts the
finishing touch to the dogs education.
The training is divided into two Pc
riods, during the first of which the
dog learns what Is called carriage
or road behavior, abstenance from
quarrels and resistance to temptations
to playing with other dogs, neglect
of garbage boxes and butcher shops.
Next he is taught to avoid obstacles
and tow to pick his way across the
street with regard for vehicles.
Then he is turned over to sight
less hero of the war and kept under
observation for a few days to make
Lsure that his training Is complete.
The blind man, too requires little
training with the dog, for he find II
an entirely different matter to follow
the string after having been led by
the arm. Guided by person, he
abandons himself to his conductor
and loses all notion of self reliance
J feeling that he is dominated by an
other will than his own. Consequent
ly he insufficiently developes his re
naming senses to make up for thu
one that is lacking. Led by dos
which must be ordered, no matte
how efficient his training, he devel
opes the senses of touch and hearin,
with remarkable rapidity through th'
necessity of remaining constantly al
tentive.

GERMAN LONG DISTANCE SHELL
STRIKES MATERNITY HOSPITAL
(By Associated Press J

Paris, May 14.-The German long
distance shell which struck a mater
nifty hospital yesterday, killing moth
ers by the side of their infants, sent
a shudder of horror through Paris
which, since the hecatomb Of Good
Friday, thought it had become imper-
vious to such an emotion. 1t also
created confusion among the surviv-
ing mothers, some Of whom have been
unable to identify their offspring
among the babies that escaped the
assassin.
The projectile exploded in a dor
mitory containing twenty beds, kill
ing two mothers and one baby, and
wounding many others and complete
ly wrecking the room. Through the
cloud of dust and dirt, nurses and at
tendants rushed In and carried the
wounded and women who were i'll to
another room, returning Immediately
for the infants. One baby had been
thrown out of its cradle ten feet away
but was quite unhurt. The babies were
carried and deposited pell-mell on
beds in room quickly prepared to
receive the patients so violently eject
ed by the German gun.
After some order had been restored
It was found that six mothers were
unable to decide which was their own
among six infants. They had all beer
born on the same day and in the hus-
tie and hustle of removing the infants
from one room to the other the identi
flying tags had become detached.

FABRICATED, VESSELS
(By Associated Press.)

London, May 14.-"Fabricated ves-
sells are one of the latest and most
interesting developments of Great
Britain's shipbuilding drive, A fab
ricated" ship is one whose component
parts are manufactured in other than
shipbuilding yards, usually in plants
inland. The new fabricated ship Is
larger than most of the standard ships
and there is not a curved frame In It.
In fabrication of ships the aim was
to increase speed of production and
also to utilize for shipbuilding pur-
poses such plants as bridge-building
yards and land engine factories.
1t is expected that ships of the new
type soon will materially increase the
tonnage output.
