Would Feel Lost
Without Their Diamonds

Los Angeles, Calif.-Many men
and women who wear diamond
rings regard them not only as part
of their apparel but as part of them
selves. Many persons, especially
women, became attached to the
beautiful ornaments and would feel
not only undressed without them
but as if some vague element of
their pei sonality were missing.
But Judge Craig of the Riverside
Superior Court holds that, while Il
diamond stud and a gold watch are
wearing apparel, diamond ring is
merely property which under GER
tain conditions may be seized and
attached.
His ruling, which is unique in
California court proceedings, was
handed down in a probate case in
which a widow sought to gain pos
session of a diamond stud, a dia-
mond ring and gold watch which
belonged to her husband. Judge
Craig ruled that a stud is an es-
sential part of wearing apparel be-
cause it holds garments together
and that a watch is so frequently
used and so necessary in personal
affairs that it may be classed prop
erly as wearing apparel. The dia-
mond ring however was awarded to
the petitioner, because, the judge
said, it was merely luxury and con-
sequently subject to legal seizure.
Judge Craig's decision has opened
some interesting questions for Cali
fornia women. Only the stud. ring
and watch were concerned in his
ruling, but the fine distinction he
drew might seem to affect other
articles of jewelry. If a diamond
ring is an asset rather than apparel,
the women are wondering in which
class such construction of the law
would place bracelets, necklaces,
brooches, earrings and many other
bits of jewelry which in many cases
women have come to regard almost
as part of themselves.

Millions Lost in Forest
Fires Points to Need Of
National Forest Police

Washington, July 29.-Estimated
loss by forest fires in 1918 is placed
at twenty eight million five hundred
thousand dollars and with fires
sweeping sections of three States
the American Forestry Association
points to the need of a national
forest policy. The association to-
day sends out a call to all those in
terested to send expressions of opin-
ion as to what should be embodied
in national forest policy so that
these ideas can be presented at the
annual meeting.
Considering the annual fire losses
and the fact that the markets of the
world are opening to the United
States something must be done to
replenish our forests" says the
statement by the association. The
wartime call upon our forests were
tremendous but the call of peace
time activities will greatly exceed
the call of war. In peace time we

Il made a motor trip of inspection
through Rumania in May after the
American Relief Administration had
been working there since Febru-
ary. On a prior visit starvation was
very great because that German
robber, Mackensen, had destroyed
or stolen all the feed he could ship
to Germany.

placed in position. When sufficient
timber has thus been put together,
in regular shipbuilding style, to in
sure buoyancy, the embryonic vessel
will be launched.
Donkey engines on board Will
hoist the lumber into place. The
planks will be so adjusted as to
form rounded bows and stern for
a ship of solid lumber which will
ride low in the water. The vessel
will be fitted with five masts with
great fore -and-aft schooner sails
and auxiliary engines which will en-
able it to travel at fair speed in
calm weather.
When the ship arrives at port in
England. the fastenings, which hold
the lumber in place, will be releas-
ed, leaving the lumber. now loose
planks, again, ready for immediate
distribution. The unloading of the
craft, of course, will mean its de-
molition. When the lumber is taken
away, there will be no ship left. The
engines will be taken out and sent
back to British Columbia to be
used in another vessel of the same

food. After the news was spread
that American -four had reached
Bucharest. every American who ap-
-peared was greeted with cheers and
the bakers in many shops stuck little
American flags into their loaves of
bread.
Starvation prevailed in Febru-
airy before Mr.. Hoover's forces ar
rived. In May in the same territory
everybody smiled and had put on
pounds of flesh. Little children
played and laughed in the street
where before they were dropping
with sheer weakness. If the Amer
lean people could hav visited these
regions and seen the use to which
their money had been put they
would never regret having given
Americas aid to the rehabilitation
of Europe.
The bulk food supplies furnished
by the American Relief Administra-
ton as a government organization
will be sufficient to meet all the re-
quirements of a simple ration until
this years harvests are available,
but special food for the children
must be imported from and paid

this wood, says the American Forest
ry Association, of Washington, d. c.,
which is campaigning for the plant
ing of memorial trees. There have
been a number of theories but the
real reason is simple.
The favorite theory has been that
sapsuckers, by pecking holes through
the bark of young NAPLES, make
scars which produce the bird's-eye
figure in the wood during succeeding
years. Bird-pecked hickory is often
cited as an analogous case, yet who
ever saw bird's-eye figure in hickory,
though the bark may have been
perforated like a collander by the
bills of energetic sapsuckers? The
effect in the case of hickory is the
opposite of bird's-eye in maple; the
wood is discolored and unsightly.
Some attribute it to the action of
frost, but no such connection be-
tween cause and effect has been
shown to exist.
The explanation of the phenomen-
on is simple, and a person with 4
good magnifying glass can work it
out for himself. The bird s-eye fig
ure is produced by casual or alb
normal buds which have their origin
under the bark of the trunk. The
nTSt DuuS OIL lnat KIM may develop
when the tree is quite small. They
are rarely able to force their way
through the bark and become
branches, but they may live many
years Just under the bark. growing
in length as the trunk increases in
size, but seldom appearing on the
outside of the bark. If one such
bud dies, another will likely rise
near it and continue the irritation
which produces the fantastic growth
known as birds eye.
1t is said the Japanese produce
artificial blrd's-eye growth in certain
trees by inserting buds beneath the
bark. The Field Museum. Chicago,
has sample of what is claimed to
be artificially produced bird 's-eye
wood from Japan.
