FUTURE IN TREES.

A generation ago the center Of
the great lumber region lay very
near the Atlantic coast, and the
broad land was all but covered with
virgin forests. Wood Of all kinds has
been used up 80 much faster than it
grows that today the center Of our
region is rapidly approaching the
Pacific coast. The tree is one Of the
greatest sources Of wealth in the
land, and great efforts are being
made today before it is too late to
preserve it. Many thousands Of acres
all over the country are planted with
trees like any other crop.-Boys'

RECLAIMlNG THE WAR ZONES
Work Being Steadily Pushed In
France, Though the Task Is
Tremendous One.

A recent examination Of the work
going steadily forward TO reclaim
the French farmlands reports that
over 100000 acres have been
cleared and about 100000 acres
planted, or made ready for planting.
How small part this is Of the total
appears when one knows the extent
of what is called the first zone,"
where the heaviest fighting went on
for four years, and forests vanished,
villages were swept away, and the
soil is so filled with metal that it
now defes plowing. Here 2,291, 800
acres Of cultivated land we're de-
stroyed, and "how much Of it will be
reclaimed no one can yet tell" The
second zone," almost as large as the
first, was behind the 'front.'" and
there the preliminary work of clear
ing away the debris Of war is still IN
progress. The third zone" is the
area which had fallen into German
hands, nearly 100000 acres of farm
land, much less completely de-
stroyed, but injured by neglect and
stripped Of every kind Of farm ma
chinery that the Germans could
carry away with them. In attacking
the tremendous task of reclamation,
the farmers have banded together by
communes, or townships.

The Heart of Christmas

Christmas is not day, it is a mood. It is independent of days. We cele- brate it on Friday, Saturday, Sunday any day of the week. Christmas is indifferent to days It has nothing to do with the almanac. It has nothing to do with place. It is as independent of geography as it is of chronology. It has no relation to human government, or even to race or blood. It is an Institution which can be set up on any soil and under the folds of any flag. Christmas is spiritual creation, and belongs to the kingdom of the heart. It is constructed by angels of the heart of child. If it then be a mood, it can be extended over week, month, a year, a lifetime. It can be built upon time, upon eternity. If you confine it ts day, you miss the meaning of it. If you try to cram it into twenty-four hours, you crush it and lose the es- Sence of it.

That Gore is out of line with the
rank and file of the Democratic party,
is again demonstrated by a compari-
son of the platform as adopted by the
Democratic National Convention at
San Francisco, and "Gore's Platform"
His principals are antagoAistic to the
principals Of the party of which he
claims to be a representative and of
which he is asking support in his race
for denomination and reelection. 1t
looks like Gore is out of "tune" with
everything that is Democratic or that
is American. Why? Look up his rec
ord The reason is evident. Fig

Summer Complaint in Children.

There is not anything like so many
deaths from this disease now as before
Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea
Remedy came into such general use.
When this remedy is given with cas-
tor oil, as directed and proper care is
taken as to diet, it is safe to say that
fully ninety-nine out of every hundred
cases recover. Mr.. w. G.. Campbell of
Butler, Tenn. says 81 have used Cham
berlain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy
for summer complaint in children. 1t
is far ahead of anything l have ever
used for this purpose"

Dover, Okla, June 30, 1920
Editor Of the Herald,
Beaver, Oklahoma.
1t is with a throbbing heart that
| write you that we lost our dar, q
baby boy. Clinton, aged 9 years, 4
months, 22 days, on Thursday Of last
week. He took sick Tuesday evening,
June ed. Had been playing with a
little playmate and came in and took a
nap. While he was asleep he was
taken sick. We called a doctor at
once, but in a few hours he was un-
conscious and never regained con-
sciousness. He died Thursday night,
June oath, at IL 80 o'clock.
While we know that he is a shining
angel in Heaven, it is so hard to give
hun up. | thought my heart would
burst with grief when before he died,
he said, Mamma, Kiss your Baby Boy
Goodby," and sang, "He Only Knows" !"
That was his favorite song.
The funeral services were at our
home Friday, June 25th and burial
Was made ir New Hope cemetery.
We made our home in Beaver coun-
ty and little Clinton was born and
reared there. We left there about a
year ago. He was liked by everybody
and we wanted you TO publish his
death so his playmates and friends
would know that God had called him.

HARVEST ABOUT OVER

Harvest is about a thing Of the past
in all parts of the county. A few
fields of late wheat still remain but
so far the great part of the grain is
safely in the stack. In some sections
the combined harvester and thresher
has been used and the wheat is in
the bin and discing for next years
crop has commenced. The yield var
les in different sections of the county
but, on the whole, has been very sat
isfactory and much greater than was
expected earlier in the season.

LONDON SCRIBE SAYS
u. S. is FAR FROM DRY
By William L. Mallabar, Interna.
tional News Correspondent.

By William L. Mallabar, Interna.
tional News Correspondent.
London, Dec. 18.-That America is
not as "dry" as it is thought to be
over here and that it is not "se-
ricusly frantic" over the Irish ques-
ton are two of the discoveries made
by correspondent of London pa
per who is now in New York.
The correspondent had been In
America-meaning New York-just
ten days when he made these discov-
cries.
"There is not a particle of truth
in the suggestion that American
sentiment has been completely alien
ated since the conclusion of the
war;" states Frank Dilnot, in an ar
ticle published in one Of the leading
afternoon papers.
He gives as his first example the
old story of the steward Of the smok-
ing room on the liner on which he
sailed to America coming into the
room and saying:
empty your glasses, gentlemen
No more drinks to be served; we are
within sight of the Statue Of Lib
erty."
This, it seems, was intended for
irony, but the correspondent says it
was misplaced, for he declares:
Thirty hours later was enjoying
dinner with an American friend aud
was openly served with excellent sau-
terne at restaurant whose attrac-
tions are known to all fashionable
New Workers."
He learned afterward "to his hor-
ror" that he was breaking the law.
at is enough" he says, "to say
for the moment that the stewards
remarks on the liner lead to a pes
simism which is very far from being
justified by facts. America always
was very temperate country in the
use of alcohol and l shall not be go
ing beyond the facts in saying that |
it is not less temperate than it used
to be-"
On the Irish question he says:
There are violent diatriebs about |
Ireland in some of the papers; pa
thetic asd regretful articles about
Mr.. MacSwiney in some columns,
and in few courageous prints some
downright hard British common
sense-call it American common
sense if you will-about Sinn Fein.
Il think the latter represents the
opinion of responsible Americans
