Forest Fire Is
Big War Evil

The president, we are told by Sci
ence, New York, has authorized loan
of $1,OOO,OOO to the forest service for
fire fighting expenses, to meet emer-
gency conditions In the national for
ests of the northwest and the Pacific
coast.
The loan was made from the special
defense fund Of S5O,OO0OO0 placed at
the disposal Of the president by con-
gress. 1t Is recognized that the pro-
lection Of the national forests Is an
important and essential war activity.
Forestry officials regard the present
fire season In the northwest as in some
ways the most serious with which the
government has ever had to cope. Ear
ly drought, high winds, electrical
storms, labor shortage and depletion OF
the regular protective force as result
of the war have combined to make the
fire conditions unprecedentedly bad.
Necessity for resort to the presidential
fund was due to the fact that the ap-
preparation bill for the department of
agriculture for the current year had
not yet been passed. Co.. ~"

Chin Of the Old Block.

It is curious how episodes Of the
Boer war are recalled by the world
conflict, says a writer In the Yorkshire
Post. In our issue for May 16. 1900,
for instance, we published an account
of the bravery in the field OF Private
e. Wischusen, who threw live shell
over a cliff during an engagement.
Now his son, Private Eric Wis
chusen, duke Of Cambridge's Middle
sex regiment. has proved himself to
be no less brave. AS parchment
certificate from his commanding off1-
Ger shows, In a raid near Voormezeele,
on June 1920, he was conspicuous for
his determination and bravery" De
spite a heavy artillery and machine
gun barrage, he reached the enemy
trenches, cleared them. and finally COW
cred the raiders withdrawal. SHOW
ing complete disregard to his OWL
safety
Private Wischusen, who Is only
twenty, is now In hospital at Loves
loft with a shot wound In his leg. His
home Is In Hornsey.

Why Oil Floats on Water.

It seems very curious at first sight
that one liquid should be able to float
on the surface Of another; but II we
think carefully about it we see at once
that whether thing floats on the sur
face of water or not depends upon
two things, writes the Child's Book
of Wonders. First, whether It is solu-
ble-that is, will dissolve-in water or
not. For instance, If we put a piece OF
salt In water it disappears. because
the salt is soluble in water. If, how
ever, we put a piece Of light wood on
water 1t floats there because 1t Is not
soluble, and therefore remains intact.
and also because the weight Of the
piece Of wood is less than an equal
piece of water. 1t is much the same
with oil. Oil and fat are quite insol-
uble in water, and as the oil Is con-
siderably lighter than the bulk of wa
ter it floats on the surface.

URGES UNITY OF WORKERS
Brtain's Labor Day Message to Amer
lea Points Out the Way for Sat-
isfactory World Peace. -

"If British and American labor pull
together with their whole strength al
lied victory will be FASTENED and sat
isfactOry world peace be won."
This is the Labor day message sent
to America by George Ii. Roberts,
British minister of labor, and one OF
the foremost labor leaders in Europe.
Mr.. Roberts paid a tribute to the
forcible twin the war" stand by Sam
uel Gompers, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, at the same
time making it clear that the British
pacifists who claim to represent Brit
ish labor are simply selfish Opportun-
lists who have arrogated to themselves
the function of misrepresenting the
bulk of English workmen.
The Gompers party cOnfronts a sit
uatiOn in the British labor world
which on its face appears to be deli
cate one. Spokesman for British
wOrkingmen are sharply divided on
the question of peace terms, and par
ticularly on the question which has
arisen at times in the last year as to
whether British labor Representatives
should meet representatives of the
German majority socialists at su1e
neutral capital to discuss war quo-
lions. There is no doubt that larU
majority of British workingmen are

BACK TO HIS OLD FREEDOM
Stormy Petrol, After Brief Stay With
Tame Birds, Returns to His
Accustomed Place.

"The stormy petrol has left u.s." said
Sergeant MCGEE Of the park police.
"He appeared to be getting along with
the mudhens like a house on fire, but
on Monday or Tuesday last he just
faded away, and now he is back on his
ocean wave or wherever else petrels
go when they get tired of the company
OF mudhenS.
but a successor has come from
the briny deep to keep up the tradi-
tons of the blue-water birds on
Stow lake. He is only seagull. and
a seagull is not such a rara avis on
terra as our lost friend. the stormy
petrol. Nevertheless he Is the first
wild one of his kind that has ever
tarried with us for two weeks, and
seemed to keep comfortable.
"He has no use for either the ducks
or the mudhens. That Is to say, he
does not mix with them. But he has
struck up a friendship with Anthony
and Cleopatra, the two pelicans OF
the Nile, and there is no driving him
away from them. Maybe he thinks
they will protect him from the mud
hens, maybe it is a case Of the de-
sire of the moth for the STAR and he
Is in love with one Of them. If so, II
is only matter of time when one or
the other of them will get Jealous and
gobble him up in one gulp. "-San

BROUGHT BOY To HIS DAD
the Young Soldier and Of Course
They Succeeded.

Dad was from some little town near
to Indianapolis to see his boy, his only
son who had been away from home for
four years. The boy was in the army
and was being transferred. He was TO
be In indianapolis on Sunday and
wired his father to meet him. Some
how, father and son missed connection
In the union station. Dad decided TO
appeal to the women Of the Red Cross
canteen booth.
II was to meet him here" dad said.
"He hasn't shown up. l know he's in
Indianapolis somewhere"
The canteeners got busy. Dad and
his boy had to be brought together.
First the canteeners summoned the
military police. They got a descrlp-
ton OF son. The NJ. P.'s started out
to find him. The canteenerS also start
ed scouts. They visited every down
town corner and haunt of the soldiers.
An hour later the canteeners looked
Mp toward the station door. In came
dad and his bOy-arm In arm.

and stand on that corner. You said
he'd pass there, and pretty soon he
did. The military police kept coming
by TO ask If had trail of him. And
then he came. My, but he was glad
to see me!'
or course he was glad to see him
The boys smile told how glad he was
TO see his dad.-IndianapOlis News.

Dutch and English languages are now

Finally, there is the town hall. Every

though it be built of wood and iron.
It may have to serve as q market hall,
or even for a picture show at times.
The visitors general impression Is
that life is quiet and peaceable, no one
seems to hurry, every one appears
have time to tarry and talk. Business
often takes a second place in store
until the small social amenities have
been exchanged. 1t is usual to apply
the term sleepy" to all dorps; the
gentle accusation may be true after
the hurry of Durham or johannesburg,
and certainly would be just if thinking
in terms of New York. Life Is happy,
the air is warm, the simple necessa-
ries are easily obtained. and, provided
that one is not possessed by the fiery
ambition Of the hustling type, peace
and calm may easily compensate for
the lack of some of the veneer of mod.
ern civilization wich, after all, is sc
thin.

Oil Near Old indian Cemeteries.

Biologists are unable to explain the
fact, proven in Usage county. that Oil
