Know Trees and Do Not Be Afraid.


l don't think that anybody (boy or
otherwise) who has the knowledge of
trees required by the test for the merit
badge in forestry, will ever be afraid
to be alone in the woods with them at
night, or at any other time. Once you
know what the leaves do; and what
makes them green; and how the sap
runs and why (or as much of tina,
"why" as is knowD !; and how the.
wood tissue is formed; and how the
roots work; and what the tree does in
winter-when you know such things
about trees, you should never again
feel lonesome in the woods. For though
all these are merely scientific facts,
they will make the trees real living
things to you, and then you will begin
to understand what is meant when one
speaks of the trees Whispering" and
of the leaves .'clapping their hands,"

ALBUQUERQUE GETS 1T IN THE NECK
OFF1CIAL census figures for 1920 give Albuquerque, Y,
leo a population Of


This IS a gain Of 81 per cent. On the face Of the returns II puts
our city behind practically every other in the southwest in percentage
OF gain in population during the tenyear period.
or course we who live in Albuquerque know that during the past
ten years the greater part Of our gain in population has established
its official residence outside our city limits, and that both our popula.
tion and our percentage of gain are practically double the figures
given us by the census.
Unfortunately people living outside OF BernaIilo county and New
Mexico do not know about the narrow confines of our city limits and
the overflow of built up streets in all directions.
During the next ten years we will be kept constantly engaged
in explaining to interested people how it happens that Albuquerque
with a compact population Of right at 10000, within a five mile
radius, has but 5000 in the United States censns.
This explaining is some job. The necessity for attending to It is
considerably more important than most people realize. II affects us
in numerous ways and to our disadvantage.
Business moves with and toward population When our census
figures show up badly business is withheld from coming our way until
IL is made to understand the true conditions, and making business
understand is difficult
Health seekers do not care for a small town. They would rather
person who wants a village and village life while resting or recuperat-
ing, is the exception
Bringing a new industry to a town of $4,000 people is Just twice
as difficult as bringing one to a town of 10000 people.
II is perfectly clear that the census gives it TO Albuquerque in
the neck.
The blow we have received is our own fault. We have gone dub
bling along for the past ten years with our municipal limits as they
We're IN 1850. without any concerted or persistent effort to correct
conditions that all of us knew must be corrected.
The foolish part of it is that that municipality has gone right
along furnishing municipal conveniences and equipment. fire protec-
ton, police protection, sewer service, water service and everything
else we had, without making any effort to induce those served free
OF charge TO come in and take on their share of the load.
One OF the big projects for Albuquerque during the next year
should be to expand this town TO take in its population. II will re-
qnre the next five years to convince the people and interests we want
to interest here that we have the population.
Ihe quicker we get about this the better for Albuquerque. If
we fail to attend 4 il now we may drift along TO another census. in
1880 when threefourths instead of half of our population live outside
the city limits.

Some Reasons Why the Farmer Should
 Keep Thanksgiving

Just now, apart from our knowl- edge of food secure, perhaps some of us feel it necessary to fall back upon the private reasons for thank fulneSs Each one has some bit of personal weil-being that can be brought out and rubbed up and admired just to keep our home circle happy this Thanksgiving day. Each one knows their own cause for con tent, even where it is so common place as not to be distinctly visible to others. Especially this year we mustn't lose sight of the personal bright spots on account of their everyday character.
 A person was once visiting a friend whose home commanded a beautiful stretch of mountain scenery. It was, in fact, a magnificent view. "What a wonderful outlook you have here," he remarked to his host. 1T am sure if I lived here I should spend most of my time viewing the landscape." "Why, I never thorght of it that way" his host replied. q never con sidered it anything remarkable. have simply taken it as a matter of course"
 Thousands of people who live In the country enjoy a treasure which is denied 10 millions of their fellOWmen the blessing of good, pure, out-of- door air, fragrant in spring and sum- mer with perfume of flowers or new mown hay and in fall and winter la den with crisp, life-giving ozone.
 No one enjoys more blessings and or woman on the farm. He or she, if inclined to be of a complaining na- ture, is apt to find fault that life on the farm is so hard and composed so largely of drudgery. Furthermore, "far away fields are always green" that in the city all must be ease and contentment. These imaginings how ever will not stand the test of personal aCquaintanceship with the life that is lived in the cities by hun dreds of thousands of people. Farm work is hard, but there are no easy berths in life.
 The average person on the farm lives better, enjoys better air to breathe. better water to drink, better food to eat. better conditions under which to work, better health than the man or woman in corresponding cir cumstances in the city.

 SORRY PLlCH'I

That all the world loves a lover was never more aptly portrayed than last night shortly after the steam ship Alameda cast off and headed for And aboard the big ship is a bridal couple, MT. and Mrs. John Muller of Cordova, who cannot help but love those who love a lover, for it was due to a number of aides of Dan Cupid that the newlyweds were able to continue their honeymoon journey without an untoward incl dent casting a cloud over their roseate horizon.
 The newlyweds were married in Cordova, where Mr Muller is cashier of the First Bank of Cordova, and where the bride, daughter of c. M. Rosswog, well known in Juneau and on the channel, were returning from a tour outside. They came ashore at Juneau and love-like, oblivious to the flight of time, did not hear the warning signal of the ship calling everybody aboard. When they reached the dock they say the lights of the liner fading in the distance.
 "It's horrid." said the bride.
 "It's-oh, excuse me-" apologized the groom.
 Then he gave the bride an exhib- tion of what a resourceful man she had entrusted her future to, and hur- ried uptown to the radio office.
 Would J. s. Holder, the jovial ra- dio diplomat at the Gastineau help them?
 Would he! Get this on the ether," said MT. Holder, handing a message to the messenger

 But it isn't fair to tell tales. With in a few moments one of the swift est power launches of the waterfront was coughing and straining at her mOorings, eager to be off in a race backed by Cupid on one hand the big ship Alameda on the other.
 The sparks dashed and dotted at the local radio station and this mes. sage sped into the night:
 Aboard s. s. Alameda, Cap
 tain J. Johansen: Muller and
 bride left behind; will you slow
 up the ship and be overtaken
 by a launch?"
 Bride and groom, um!" muttered ,, the gruff old sea dog. "Just like a bride and groom; hold up liner; costs about $1O0 per hour. We'll, tell 'em to come along; we'll wait"
 Hardly had the message been de- | livered back in Juneau before MT. and Mrs. Muller were rushing to the | dock, accompanied by l.. D. Tender | son. commissioner of education for | Alaska, who also missed the boat. | The launch was cast off, and with a puff like saying "hurray!" was off in pusuit, Cupid at the wheel.
