SAVING WHAT WE HAVE.

As the result of recent meeting of state foresters, deans of forestry schools, lumbermen and others interested in wood products for the purpose of direct hg greater attention to the need of making early and determined efforts in behalf of the insuring sufficient sup ply of timber for the future demands of the country, the deliberations resulted in the endorsement of plan for greater amount of forest fire protection than is now or ever has been provided.
 There is considerable to commend ia the stand which has been taken U inc effect that it is next to useless to enter upon an extensive policy of reforestaton if the result of such efforts is going to be quickly destroyed by fire, and with forest fires consuming standing timber to the value of $2o,Oeo,O 900 every year it caa be appreciated that there is not only an opportunity for the prevention of great waste but through such preven- ton there would be a large amount of timber available which is now render d useless aad greater interest would be taken in the replacing of cutover sections by new forests, set out and attended to III d 4ud4AuSt to SFl tHS AulChSSb dttu pSSL results
 In the opinion of the conference thera is a greater service that should be per formed by tho government in eoopeca- ton with the states, by the a7prop;i ;ia- ton of a million dollars to be allotted to states in keeping with suchs sums as they appropriate. Likewise there is5a1 Vocated such additional legislation as would be, required in the many states tc bring about this cooperation. and the formation of forest fire prevention c1n- nittees that will keep ihe prevention policy before the people.
 Certainly if it is ossible to bring about the elimination of a waste of s2e. O00,1o each year by the expenditure of 8 couple of million, or even half of such a loss the investment would be worth mar ing. There is as great need of prevent ing the loss of property represented 1T standing timber quite as much as there is for safeguarding other property, lnd along with it must go of course the awakening of the individual res-onsih" fly which can do much in reaching thi: desired erd.

SHE WAS OLD FASHIONED

T saw you last night at the Selwyn with Peter MacGrath. said the girl with the seal dolman, as she ran up the steps of the boarding house veranda. T was so surprised z
 Were you?' asked the girl in the blue tricotine frock, looking up from her darning That's beautiful dclman you are wearing. It's new, isn't it."
 "Oh yes" yawned the girl with the seal dolnan as she gently turned 1t over So that the brilliant lining would show. Things are so expensive this year. It was s400. But, of course, if a person goes out much-as I do-why, clothes are an absolute necessity"
 The girl in the blue tricotine nodded slightly with her eyes on the stocking in her hands Its probably lucky that I don't go out a great deal,' shs said quietly. 'It's fun to go but when you think every minute about what it has cost, I don't know"
 q never think of the cost except on Wednesdays when I'm paid" laughed the girl in the<seal dolman, and then I trot over to pay my instanments. I have got so used to going over to Merchusen's that automatically I turn in there on every Wednesday evening. Do you ever go -there?"
 'No," said the girl in the blue trico- tine He is higher priced than rhe places I go. You see, I pay for what l get when I get it, and I'm just old fash toned enough to think I save that way must admit though, that at times l have sort of wonder when I'd see you and Miss Merton go away gayly evenings in your pretty clothes while I stayed at home.'
 ''Yes," said the girl in the seal dolmar cheerfully. "Men simply will mot taKs you about unless you're all dolled up an l then some. So, that being the case, I doll. But We were talking about your being out with Peter MacGrath. Yes, we were out. It wasn't the first 1 time, though" said the girl in the blus tricotine.

CHILD TRAINING AT HOME
Who Are Educators of Our childrena


 By ELIZABETH HARRISON (Author of A Study of Child Nature, When Children Err and other writings)
 A famous educator has said "Educa- ton has to do with the development of three powers: 1. Accurate obsery ation.
 2. Sound judgment.
 5. Energetic action.
 Accurate observation naturally devel- ops comparison and contrasts that lead to correct judgment. The level-headed judg- ment brings a conviction of right and persistency in any line of conduct What strong, energetic character whose judg- ment can be relied upon and whose facts will stand all testing? ?"
 And yet we leave our little children in a hay world of copfused sense impress sion, rarely even calling on them to use any judgment and oftentimes not satis- flying their eager questioning with accu- rate statements of the things about wGich they are inquiring. Is this not due to the prevailing belief that it does not matter what little children hear and see or with what they occupy themselves so long as they keep we'll and are not too much trouble?
 The comment of a well known educator and father who has made fine success of bringing up his family of children is wor- thy of our consideration. He said: ~HThe parental attitude and next to that the teacher attitude toward the higher things of the mind is of paramount importance iespecially in young children. The often times contemptuous indifference Yitll

 which mature people treat the presence of children, displaying before them habits, manners and conversation that are any thing but desirable, is to me one of the paralyzing wonders of coneamporary liee.t
 Children all around us are observing the manners and listen:rg to the conversation of the adults about them, and the general bearing of most children is a direct re flection of their home surroundings. If conduct is dignifed and conversation is along the line of some noble or far= reaching theme, the child will be greatly benefited. If conversation is petty or puerile gossip about the limitations of ones neighbors. the child's mind is feed ing upon that non-nutritious supply; if conversation is bitter and oontemptuous criticism of the really high and noble mo- tiyes of the worlds best people, the child's mind is feeding upon that poison for. after all. it is the opinions of the people we look up to that educate the majority of us rpore than any one factor of life.

"I was entirely relieved of my trou- bles four years ago by Tanlac and have enjoyed the best Of health ever since, said Edward Ball, d well-known farmer who lives on Route 3. Box $, Duluth, Minn.
 For two years had the worst sort of stomach trouble and rheumatism" continued MT. Ball, what little man. aged to eat would sour on my stomach and was so nadseated after nearly every meal l could not retain a thing. l would suffer terribly from gas and. to add to my other troubles, was talk en with the rheumatism in my legs and knee joints and got in such d bad fix l could hardly get up and down.
 After trying a lot of other things which did me no good I started taking Tanlac and. believe me, soon felt like new man. My appetite cama back and could eat anything | want ed without 1t hurting me the least bit The rheumatism left me entirely and, as 1 stated before, although this was four years ago I haven't had a trace of bad health since. l always keep Tanlac in the house and once in a while take little, for believe it will keep anybody in fine shape and am always recommending it to someone"
