On October %, 1920, bronze tablet
bearing the above inscription was
placed at the entrance OF Pisgah Ma
tional Forest. The tablet is embedded
in giant bowlder Of Pisgah granite,
and is the tribute of the Southern
Forestry Congress to the memory Of a
public by preserving this large area
Of streams and wooded mountain-land
in its natural beauty. Constructive
forestry and not ruthless exploitation
has always been the rule followed on
the Pisgah preserve. Through the far
sighted devotion OF one nature-lover
the United States Government has for
a comparatively small outlay become
possessed Of heritage OF wonderful
lovclincss.
The far blue peaks Of Pisgah are the
first mountain views to greet the tray
eller arriving in the city Of Ashevillc
n. G. Quaint Biltmorc village is only
a few miles distant and the Vanderbilt
chateau can be seen from several
points; but 1t is to Pisgah itself and
its surrounding hills that the gaze
oftenest turns. Pisgah snow-c capped,
or, again, family blue on day of
mountain mist-thcso are but two. of
the varying moods OF the mountain.
but no one fully knows Pisgah until he
has seen it blue-black against a fam
ing sunset
On the Slopes of this wonderful
mountain arc giant trees, oaks, tulip
poplars, chcstnuts, balsams, and other
famous Carolina conifers. Deer and
hear roam this forest at will, and in a
preserve OF their own few buffalo
are carefully guarded. The liberty of
the woods is even accorded to wild,
| cats, and sometimes these fierce ami
mails abuse their privileges and leap
from an ovcrhanging limb upon the
launches Of a passing rangers horse.
Occasionally mountainecr violates
the laws OF the national preserve. and
lpays dearly for his daring. A recent
case Of this kind shows how the courts
deal with such offenders.
"You have no more right to hunt in
the Pisgah National Forest than I
have" Judge recently informed a
poacher; "and I'm going to fine you
fifty dollars and give you Jail SEN
tence OF thirty days.

the United States had observations
to make on this subject which were
of the utmost importance.
The text Of the note had not
reached the American embassy up
to 2 o'clock this afternoon. It is
believed in League Of Nation
circles, however, that 1t concerns
either the island of Yap, the Pacific

Evoked.

Chicago, Feb. PA tenants
strike. organized by the Chicago
Tenants association, was launched
today and campaign meetings
planned for all sections Of the city
to enlist the assistance Of loo, 900
tenants in refusal to pay increased
rents. .
Secretary. 4. A. Jesserun OF the
association said striking tenants
would be encouraged to refuse
either to move or pay exorbitant
rentals, and the assistance Of num-
cipal judges would be sought. to
have eviction cases placed In their
regular turn at the bottom Of the
court calendar. This would bring
them to trial not earlier than next
year.
Signs were distributed, reading:
"Unfair. Landlord demands all.
These fats will not be vacated May
/. Do you want TO buy lawsuit! p
In the windows Of several apart
ment buildings these signs were
displayed today While scores OF
complaints over increased rentals
were pouring into the city hall. a
number OF landlords gave notice
that notices OF increases would be
recalled q the increase modified.
