Pioneer State Officer
of Forestry Department

Miss Mira Lloyd Dock, one of the
pioneer State officers in the preSer-
walton of forests, sent out three let
ters to important club women OF
the State reminding them that just
twenty years ago she left for England
to attend the International Council
of Women, cheered by the gift Of
a check for S150 from the Civic
Club of Philadelphia for. 'unfore-
seen" expenses. Miss Dock said:
When l was appointed by Gov
ernor Stone on the State Forestry
Reservation Commission in 1901,
and reappointed by Governor
Pennypacker and Governor Stuart,
l accepted the responsibility, for l
felt it was due to all who had so
generously supported me when L
first tried to talk forestry, and un-
til my retirement in 1913 l did the
best in my power while on this
board.
MY long service in the General
Federation of Women's Clubs, now
of almost ten years, also was a duty
I owed to the State Federation of
PENNSYLVANIA Women, and if l have
at any time or any place been OF
usefulness 1 want you to feel that
you and those whom you represent
ed were sharers in it."
Miss Dock brought to her work an
enthusiasm that was most convinc-
ing and in years that have followed
she has turned her rare gifts to
more than one good purpose. Miss
Dock and her sisters, former resi-
dents of this city. are now living
at Fayetteville, their home for sew
eral years past.

She recently finished the plaster
model of a bust of DR.. j. c. r.
Ewing, president of the Presbyter-

has to his credit the building up
of the American College at Lahore.
He has lived in India for the last
twenty years, and recently a new
hall has been added to the college,
to be known as Ewing Hall. 1t
seems that the faculty of the college
and its students have been anxious
to present the new hall with a bust
of Doctor Ewing by an American
sculptor. About year ago Doctor
Ewing had leave of absence to
return to this country sort OF
sabbatical year, and the students
asked him to sit for the bust which
they wished to present to their al
ma mater for the Ewing Hall.
Through a prominent Presbyter-
ian in Philadelphia Miss FoX-now
Mrs. Gritfith-was selected as the
desired artist after due examination
of her work, and Doctor Ewing sal
for the bust. of which when com.
pleted, photographs were forwarded
to the faculty and students of the

Landing On Your Feet
BY GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS

We are apt, during these times of
travail and torture of soul. to feel
that everything is going to the dogs"
But it is not true. The world has
been stepping forward in strides
not steps.
For centuries the old order has
been struggling for sustenance. But
the Kingdom of Heaven, in mems
hearts, has been growing stronger all
the time-getting ready, you see, for
the Kingdom of Heaven-on earth.
There is more kindness in peoples
hearts than there is unkindness. There
is more good in the world than there
is evil. And the forces of construc-
ton are always stronger than the
forces of destruction.
No matter in what manner you
throw a cat into the air, it always
lands upon it's feet. Do you know
mighty knew that if that cat fell on
its head, or on it's back, its poor
body would be bruised or perhaps ex-
tinguished. So he arranged it SO that
the cat would land on its feet.
One of the greatest arguments for
the existence of a Supreme Ruler over
the earth. lies largely in the fact that
every living creature is given means
for personal protection by being
given the power always to land on
all fourS."
So naturally this fact must remain
| true about the great world itself. No
| matter what happens, it is necessary
| that it land on its feet.
The world is getting better all the
time. because there are so many peo-
pie in it who love to-help.
| So if you want to grow better all
the time-and happier-just see in
how many ways you are >0le to help
the world along. And the way to
| help the world along is to help some
! body else along with whom you come
| in daily contact 1t is really a simple
process, you see.
i In fact, everything is simple when
| it is brought down to its primary ele-
| ments. The simplest way to get hap
piness is to-just be happy.

Everything l did seemed so futile

thing. L knew not what.

quiet save on the fourth anniversary
Of our marriage when we had given

there had been nothing in Neifs man
ner to cause me worry. He had even
been extremely temperate in his drink

BIZ -e Orton-who was, of course,

Neil was, however, with me less
than he had ever been since We had
be en- married. When I spoke of 1t, of
how he was getting later and later for
dinner when he came home, and of
how often he remained out, he inyari-
ably pleaded business, and told me to
go to the theater or something-not to
sit alone.

been out very late the night before

Come down town to the club to

I had not wanted her. I could not
