MUSIC FESTIVAL IN DENVER.

Denver.-The governor of Colorado, the mayor of Denver and all citizens of this city have joined hands and are cooperating as one mighty unit to make Denver Music Week the great est community effort ever attempted in this city.

Fifty-four thousand school children will take ac- tive part in Music Week. They will hold concerts in seventy-four public schools, and chorus of three thou sand voices will give the feature school program at the city auditorium This chorus will be augmented by the teachers chorus of 100 voices, which will sing "The Death of Joan of Arc"
 Ten city band organizations will give concerts on the streets, while other concerts, under the direction of the Federated Woman's Club, will cheer those folks in city hospitals, charitable homes and other institu- tiOnS.. Six hundred music teachers will hold pupil recitals during the week, while big and little business alike will participate in some part of the huge music week festival.

Papermakers Call on Foresters for Aid


 New York-"Pulp-wood costs and values have now reached point where fOresters can prove to paper manufac- 'turers that they must seriously con- sider plans for the growing of their future supply of timber" said R. S. Kellogg, secretary of the News Print Service Bureau of New York, in a re- cent address at the Cosmos Club be- fore the Washington section, Society of American FOresters.
 "A survey of the situation shows the urgent need of immediate and large scale efforts to provide a permanent supply of raw material for the basic industry of paper making. To say that the United States last year produced .8,S00,OO0 tons of wood pulp means lit tie to the ordinary reader, but the problem takes on a more concrete as- pect when it is realized that 6,0O0OOO cords of wood, chiefly spruce and hem lock, were used to make this quantity of pulp. The magnitude of the indus try is also more fully appreciated when it is known that the United States in 1920 produced 7,S30,O00 tong of paper, or 147 pounds per capita.

MEN WEAR BENEDICT RINGS
According to New York JeweIer, the Custom Has Become Common, at
 Least in That City.

'There is certainly a grave mis- apprehension concerning mems we'd ding rings which l think should be cleared up at Once," said a Broadway jeweler, according to the New York Sun. T have found that people have feeling that unless a man wears a wedding ring fashioned something like that worn by the woman, then some thing is wrong. In fact, I have learned that most people do not even know man is married when he wears any kind of ring other than a wedding ring on his fourth finger, left hand.
 "But that's a fact Where the types of rings worn by brides are somewhat similar man may wear anything from signet to real wedding ring on his left hand and still be in per feet prOpriety. As matter of fact, most men dislike the plain wedding ring and prefer something like a sig net. Brides aren't letting their hus- bands off without equality in rings as much as anything else nowadays and the bridegrOOms are wearing all kinds to satisfy their wives desire in the matter"

THUS SINCE WORLD BEGAN
As Philosophers Have Said, DeViouS Are the Ways to the Heart
 of a Maid.

LO! there was once an artistic maiden who did things cleverly and wore bobbed hair and smOcks. Her art was really very bad, nor the maiden unaware of it. She had three suitOrs and she was sore perplexed until one day suitor No. 1 said, ''I shall be frank. Your art is very bad, but I love you" She dismissed him.
 Suitor No. said, "YOur art is very good"
 The maiden said to him, "Prithee, sir, do you not agree with me that in places it Is a bit-er-crude"
 He answered the maiden. ''Now that you speak of 1t, I agree with you that in places 1t is a bit-er- crude" And she cast him forth from her fathers threshold.
 Suitor No. spoke unto the maiden in this wise: "Your art is perfect. It delights my soul. It is true art, with out flaw. love you"
 The maiden knew in her heart that her lover lied and she straightaway married him.-Ruth O'Hanlon in Life.

WASHINGTON

Secretary Wallace has written let ters to the governors of all states ask ing their cooperation in the nation wide observance of forest protection week, May P to 28, recently pro claimed by President Harding. "Ade- quate provision for the safeguarding and renewal of our forests is of vital importance to the nation," the secre- tary said in his letter, adding that the magnitude of the area burned over the last five years represents territory larger than the state of Ulah."
 Restoration of free tolls through the Panama canal to American shipping will be taken up by the Senate oceanic canals committee, of which Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho, is chairman. Three bills dealing with the free tolls question are before the committee, in- troduced by Senators Borah, Jones of Washington, and POindeXter of Wash ington, all Republicans. Two would limit the free toll privilege to Ameri- can cOastwise shipping, while another would give the privilege to all ships flying the American flag.
 All the machinery of the Department of Labor will be utilized to prevent cessation of production through May day strikes. "The department is striv- ing to maintain peace in the industrial field during this period of readjust- ment,' said Hugh Kerwin, chief of the mediation bureau of the Department of Labor.
 A new high record for net tonnage passing through the Panama canal and tolls earned was established in March, according to official announcement. The previous high record was made in January. The aggregate net tonnage of commercial traffic for March was 1,112,818, as compared with 1,O94, 1928 for January, and the tolls in March amounted to $1,1O5,529
 After a conference between Secre- tary Denby and the House subcommit- tee in charge of the naval appropria- tiOn bill, Chairman Kelly announced that the measure would be reintrO- duced in the form in which it was ap- proved at the last session. It will carry approximately $395, 100000. Mir. Denby indicated that the work on the great battle cruisers would be rushed at faster clip than that on any other craft.
