ALWAYS TEEMINe WITH LIFE
Noises Of Animals, Birds, or Insects
Never Completely StiIIed In the
JunpIes of Malay.

One may as well try to describe with
justice the crater of an active volcano
as to describe the jungle of Malay.
From without one sees dense for
est of very irregular height and of the
most vivid green imaginable. Here
and there towering above the others
one sees immense trees, 200 feet high
or more. From without the jungle
looks impenetrable, and so it is, except
by well-defned tracks, or by hacking
ones way through, as have done, for
$50 miles.
Within the jungle all is gloom. ex-
cept overhead. where one can see a
misty light that filters up through the
delicate foliage ALI the trees shoot
straight up, there being practically no
horizontal branches from them. In
fact, there are no trees that resemble
the oak or other short-trunked trees.
The ground is nearly always damp
Or even slushy In places, and infested
with land leeches that crawl up ones
clothing and gorge themselves on your
blood. The atmosphere is steamy, but
far cooler than out in the open. have
taken the temperature just within the
Jungle, and found 1t to be about 80 de-
grees, but on placing the thermometer
out In the sun 1t has rapidly reached
the temperature of 148 degrees.
Early in the morning the jungle re-
sounds with the cries of the monkeys

cease and the ordinary day noises Of
birds, and the steady hum Of insects
prevail. The frequent tap Of woodpeck-
ers, the croak Of huge treefrogs and
the call of the peacock and argus
pheasant re-echo through the jungle.
Every now and then one hears famil-
lar cock-o-doodle-doo and the clucking
Of q hen and imagines one must be
near a farm. until 1t is realized that

Of all domestic poultry.

there suddenly bursts out perfectly
Ideafening din Of buzzing and shrieking
insects. 1t is no exaggeration to state
that the noise of the insect life at sum
set makes 1t practically impossible to
5hear oneself speak. This continues I'M
til abont seven o'clock, when darkness
has set In and then 1t dies away con-
fsiderably. Throughout the night one
5hears all kinds of queer noises that
were absent during the day.
With luck, you may hear the growl
and roar of tiger. hunting some poor
animal. Frequently one hears a great
commotion among the birds and mon
keys that had been sleeping In some
tall tree, as their slumber Is disturbed
by q snake that has climbed up and
caught one Of them. A common sound
is the despairing shrek Of jungle
fowl caught by some wildcat. Occa-

Industrial miracles are being per

basis Of chemical plants established
for war purposes. This is the opinion
of q high official who is in close touch
with that feature Of reconstruction
Despite the ingenuity being displayed
In finding peace uses for these plants,
there are some establishments which
are not adaptable to such conversion.
AS a consequence their value has de-
preciated tremendously with the pass
ing of the wars necessities. In one
case, plant which cost 100000, 900

can and will be revived before the
loan campaign opens, Mr.. Mason pre-
dicted.
"The job before the publicity and
education campaigners Is to harrow
the ground in preparation for the cam
paign," Mr.. Mason said. "They all
say it will be hard job to float the
loan. say it is hard jOb-a mans size
job-but | couple this with the state
ment that we are going to put it over
as we put oyer every other loan. We
will finish the Job In a good American
way. Don't pay attention to the
early pessimists because they won't
be pessimists by the Dist of April
Mr. Mason referred to the tremend-
Gus bonded debt assumed by the ma
ton during the Civil War and de-
clared that in proportion our present
burden is very light. He estimated
that if the country was asked to pay
in proportion to its present wealth
what was required of it in Civil War
days, payments would average $1,000
CbNfVVp IEH .fnIuil anu lilC DOHufu
debt of the country would be $4,000
100000. With the Victory Loan sue
cessfully fioated our present bonded
debt will be only S24,000,000,000 from
which is TO be deducted $9,000O00,000
loaned to other nations, bringing the
national Indebtedness resulting from
the war down to $15,000,O00000
Mr.. Mason scored critics who would
have pursued a policy Of holding down
expenditure when by lavish use of
money the war was ended much more
speedily than any one believed posi-
Bile. AT least 100000 lives and 3OO-
600 other casualties had been saved
by the quick ending of the war; ac-
cording to the most conservative of
fetal estimates, he declared.
A number of novel features to at
tract public interest to the loan cam
psign were disclosed by Gilbert E.
Gable, Director of Publicity. If the
present plans are carried out, either
President Wilson or General Pershing
will, on the eve of the opening of the
campaign send radiophone message
from the Eiffel Tower to Washington.
This will be one hundred word APP
peal from the American armies to the
American people urging success for
the loan.

ceive the message, will relay 1t imme-
diately through master phone tn s'v

1t seems probable, says the Board
OF Trade Journal, that considerable
trade may develop In the Netherlands
East Indies in the preparation and
export Of arsn fiber, which is OBJ
tanned from the fibrous mass found on
the leaf sheaths of the aren palm

fall Of the old leaf stem. The material
can be cut from the. stem In strips,
and is used by the natives for thatch-
ing, ropes and small, stiff broOms, and
also as a binding material In native

Is also a European demand for aren

to water. which makes the fiber mark

be utilixable In the paper industry.
