Hope That $4,000, 900 viii

The following letter was addressed
to former Governor Whitman of New
York state by Cardinal Gibbons:
Honorable and Dear Sir-I have
been asked by the local Commander of
the Salvation Army 10 address a word
to you as National Chairman Of the
Campaign about to be launched In be-
half of the above named organization.
This am happy to do, and for the rea-
son that along with my fellow Ameri-
can citizens l rejoice In the splendid
service which the Salvation Army rem
dered our soldier and sailor boys dur
ing the war. Every returning trooper
is willing witness to the efficient and
generous work of the Salvation Army
both at the front and In the camps at
home. l am also the more happy to
commend this organization because II
Is free from sectarian bias. The man
in need Of help Is the object Of their
effort. with never a question Of his
creed or color
II trust, therefore. your efforts to
raise $13.0O0.000 for the Salvation
Army viii meet with hearty response
from our generous public. Faithfully
yours,

Be a Community Leader.

You can; you don't have to be a
genius to lead, and you don't have to
lead in everything to be real leader.
Do the things you can do, and help
the community advance with you as
you advance along the path that con-
ditions and your own tastes andabili-
ties have marked out for you. One
man can lead in community organic
alton. Another may know how to
lead in raising corn or patatoes, or in
breading cattle or feeding hogs. All
of these men may be leaders.
An Alabama reader catches the
idea and displays the spirit when he
writes: II have enclosed a blank to
become members of the Better
Stock Club. This part of the State is
in need of better live stock, and some
one will have to do the leading of the
stock is ever improved in this locality.
So l am at your service to help all
can"
That is the kind of community
leadership that is urgently called for.
Not spectacular leadership, not nee
essarily the leadership of exceptional
men, but desire on the part of or
binary men to do what they can to
help. T his makes it possible for
every one of us who has in him the
desire to progress and the will to
help to be real community leader.
The folly of forrest fires, the dam
age they do to the country, the GRIM
inality of starting them are not yet
fully impressed upon the public mind.
There must be no let-up in the cam
paign of education until the "fre bug
is recognized for what he is--a public
nuisance and public danger.

Sees Best Results From
Money For Boys Clubs

The United States Department of
Agriculture, the State agricultural
colleges, and other agencies for the
promotion of better farming are
spending considerable money in club
work among boys.
Does it pay? Here is the opinion of
DR.. Thomas F. Hunt, Dean and Di-
rector of the College of Agriculture,
University of California:
"The College of Agriculture did
not, in my opinion, get as effective
results from any other equal sum of
money which it expended as it did
from the amount of money spent on
boys clubs.
These clubs have been running long
enough for us to have some know
ledge of their influence on the future
lives of the boys concerned. l think |
am we'll within the mark when I say
that for the amount of money expend-
ed we get the greatest human results"

The famous Goodnight ranch, on

Recently a big celebration was held
at the ranch which was attended by
nor than five thousand visitors
who had never before had an oppor-
tunity of seeing the famous herds.
The visitors were shown every cour-

the big herds of buffalo were round

over the ranch and showing the man
