Tree Conservation

The value of our forests is increasing in pub
lie esteem. Slowly but surely we are learning
that logging off our timber lands and permitting
the land to grow up with underbrush is not only
wasteful but also detrimental
The federal government is conserving forests
by planting millions of new trees and encouraging
state governments to adopt policies of conserva-
ton.
Water and coal companies are beginning to
cooperate with the government. In 1919 two
water companies set out 100000 in Pennsylvania.
These companies began planting trees three years
ago and in the meantime have set out more than
100000 trees.
The coal corporations of Pennsylvania set out
100000 trees last spring. They believe their
mines will still be yielding coal when the trees
have attained their growth and that their for
ests will yield the supply of timber needed in
their mines.
Pennsylvania probably leads the states of the
Union in reforestation. Indiana has begun to
tackle the problem and has made Roadway. The
disappearance of our hard wood forests was
painfully apparent during the war when the gov
eminent sought everywhere for material required
in the construction of rifles and other munitions.

WEBSTER GAINS
TWENTY POUNDS
TAKING TANLAC

Thanks to Tanlac l am not only
starting this New Year in better phys
ical condition than l have in years,
but I have gained twenty pounds in
weight since l started taking It," said
J. D. Webster, 1916, Summit Street,
Kansas City, Mo-, recently. Mr.. Web
ster is a valued employee of the F. W.
Woolworth five and ten-cent store.
Continuing, he said:
For the past four years I have suf-
fered with stomach trouble and nerv-
GUS indigestion. My appetite has been
exceedingly poor, and the little l did
manage to eat would cause me intense
misery, as gas would form and press
against my heart so it would palpitate
something awful, and l had great diff
ficulty in getting my breath. My
nerves were in such bad condition the
least little noise out of the ordinary
would completely upset me. 1 had a
bad headache nearly all the time and
at times became SO dizzy it was all I
could do to keep from falling. I had
lost so much weight and was in such
a badly rundown condition 1 had to
lay off from work for two or three
days at a time quite often, and just
before l started taking, Tanlac I had
come to the conclusion l would have
to quit work entirely as could hardly
get about at all l was SO weak.
II had spent hundreds of dollars for
different treatments and medicines,
but hone of them did me any good,
and l had just about lost faith in all
medicines, but as I had seen so much
praise Of Tanlac by people who had
been benefited by it decided to give
it trial. Well. you can imagine my
surprise when l began to get better
while taking the first bottle. l con
tinued taking it, until today I am a
we'll man and all my troubles are
gone. My appetite is good and I car
eat anything want without any bad
after effects, and my nerves are in
perfect condition. I have recommend
ed Tanlac to any number of friends
and acquaintance and they all praise
it as much as I do, and that is saying
great deal. for think it is the grand
est medicine on earth" Tanlac is

Conference on Rural School Consolidation

The national conference on rural school con-
solidation to be held at the Iowa State Teachers
College next month will be one of the most i'm
portant educational gatherings in the history of
the country. The rural school problem has been
an acute one for many years. Many methods
have been suggested to overcome the handicaps
of one-teacher school, the most popular being
a consolidation of isolated schools into one
building.
Experts who have had successful experience
in consolidated rural schools and in one-teacher
schools will diagnose the case and discuss it be-
fore the educators. Leaders in rural education
and country life work have promised to attend.
The number of one-room rural schools is
about 100000 two-thirds of which, according to
experts, could be consolidated. About 10000
cannot be consolidated, but it is asserted that
about 10000 of the weaker ones could be con-
solidated into stronger one-teacher schools
The conference will assume the following at
titude, which is set out in the program, toward
the one-teacher rural schools:
There schools must not be neglected. They
must not be boycotted. They must not be starved.
But they must be made the best schools that it is
possible for money and qualified teachers to
make them Place the best qualified teachers in

Curiously enough, Ida and Ada are
practically synonymous, according to
letymologists. Certainly the names
were used INTERCHANGEABLE. In early
times. Ada was thought to be an en-
tirely separate entity and was believed
to be derived from Adah, meaning or
nament, and the name Adah was
given to the wife of Lamech IN the
old Testament. But later etymologlc-
al authorities believe that Ada is
merely Latinized form of Fad, mean
ing happy or rich, and the same as
the German Ida.
Ida origina ties from Frau Uote.
mother of Kriemhild, who interpreted
her dream and predicted the death OF
her bridegroom, Ortwin OF Metz. "A
number of feminine names came from
Uote or Uta. and finally tie name Aud
ur was evolved. Audur was viking
daughter, one of the first 1celandic
settlers. In England, under Norman
rule. there appeared Auda and Aida,
the latter the wife of Orlando the
Paladin. Another Aida was queen
of Italy in 926 and still another fam
GUS bearer of the name was daugh'
ter of the house of Este in 1893. High
German called the name Oda. but low
German made it Fad, and from this
latter lie and 1dette were evolved,
both of which became enormously
popular 49,,
Ida was the name given to the
granddaughter of King Stephen, who
became the Countess of Boulogne
Both Ida and Ada, the simplest terms
possible of any feminine name, have
been the basis of number of other
more involved derivitives. Some seem
hardly recognizable, as in the case Of
Othilis, a name still very popular in
Teutonic countries. The Original
Othilie was an Alsatian virgin who
was born blind but obtained her sight

That's just what I'm trying to prove.
From the time a woman is old enough
to climb up and look into a mirror,
she learns that a smile is more becom.

frown. 1t becomes second nature to
her to pat her hair and glance in the

masculine footstep. To charm-just
for the sake Of being charming Is not

a feminine fetch handed down to her

fact that she tries to be attractive to

THE Need for Distinction Between Credits
In Our Banking System.

The trouble with the American banking system
is that have not yet sufficiently developed in
our banking that very essential distinction between
credits against consumable commodities in
meut from material to consumer, distinguished
from credits advanced on fixed property. The for
concerns the great productive capacity OF the
country, which must be kept in motion and must
be protected with low rates OF interest, and the
credit available for which must not be subject to
inroadS of SPECTATORS The second category
sts Of loans against real estate bonds government
otherwise) and stocks or brick and mortar.
In the American banking system, whereby the
lines OF credit open manufacturing
Germs, etc, varying proportions OF these credits
often enough actual fixed capital Any examination
OF these lines OF credit individual concerns will
disclose that nine times OF ten they represent
advances against unsold inventories and often
enough against the actual value of the plants them
selves.
More vicious. however, than this type OF loan in
its economic inroadS into real commercial banking
capital Is that order of loan based on bonds stocks
or real estate This is the area in which specula-
tion imPingeS itself Spectators will pay any rate
OF interest and always outbid the merchandising
business OF the country with its necessary small
margins. The demand ior speculative capital OF
this character from the banks is the thing that
gives US or per cent interest rates commodity
loans distinguished from the 4 or per cent
rates maintained elsewhere in the world We have
seen it contribute greatly the OF living dur
ing the past eighteen months. The Federal Re
serve sys,,m TO some extent has aided this type Of
credits because the banks are always able to take
commercial paper resting primarily on the first type
OF credits for rediscount thus enabling them TO use
their own capital to larger degree for the second
category
\ properly developed system OF banking would
he ~
bank capital applicable these purposes and would
permit no inroads Of the commercial capital OF the
country by the specuator through loans on fixed
property.
