WashingtOn.-C Lathrop Pack
president of the American Forestry
association, states that THE needless
S30,O00,000 annual forest fire loss is
wasteful strain upon the resources
OF the nation" Standing timber is
being cut and destroyed by fire and
insects, four times as fast as new trees
are grown. Here is an example of
what confronts the nation" declared
Mr. Pack. THE wholesale prices on
upper grades of soft wood lumber in
New York were from $40 to SIS a
thousand feet prior to 1866, when mills
III the same state supplied the mark
et from $35 to $45 between 1866 and
1917 when most of the supply came
from the lake states and the south and
are now entering a general level of
$130 per thousand feet with large
part of the material coming from the
Pacific coast.
New York.-Along with tremendous
immigration from foreign countries it
is expected that the Hollanders. the
most prosperous of Europeans. will
break all records in their influx into
American ports between now and
spring. S. L. Veenstra, Netherlands
Emigration expert, states that thous-
ands OF Hollanders, including many
well-to-do are anxious to settle in
America. They are sick of conditions
in their own country where thousands
OF refugees came from the war-swept
countries. Many of our best people
in Holland Mr.. Veenstra said, "are
simply sick of Europe and all things
European, including Bolshevism, and
want to get away. They are not leav-
ing Holland because they cannot make
a living there, but quite the contrary,
as most of them are prosperous and
will be able to buy homes in America.

Chicago.-D, E. n. Schoolman, psy-
choanalysis expert, states that the
two sexes are coming to a point OF
equalization and that men are becom-
ing more effeminate and women
more masculine. He points to the in
creaslng number of men taxing posi-
tons as servants to prove his point
He says that some men do homework
because of economic reasons while
others wish to satisfy a craving for
thigs effeminate. Modern condit-
ions make it unnecessary for men to
be aggressive and aggressiveness is
the essence of masculinity. The ease
with which the needs of life may be
obtained without using muscle, in
open competition with other men is
also causing men to become effem-
mate On the other hand Schoolman
said, women are balancing the situa-
ton by tendency to become mascu-
line.
