come, with two male companions
and a squaw.
But the chief and his son, George

Tall and straight in spite of his

SCREECHING LYNX
SCREAMING GIRLS

SARNAC LAKE, n. Y. June L.
Chateaugav Lake has an added attrae-
ton for its summer colony this season in
The somewhat unpleasant but very thrill
ing form of a record size Canadian
lynx.
The lynx got away to good start re
Gently when it horned into Il girl s party
and scattered the maidens fair to the
four winds. Miss Almira Blow, MISS
June Knight, Miss Marjorie Blow, Miss
Gertrude Jenaway and Miss Mildred
Blow were returning to their homes
along n woods road, after spending the
evening at the home of a friend. The
girls were walking arm in arm and sing
ing.
Came a crash in the brush and into
the moonlight road staiked huge lynx,
which advanced toward the group,
screeching as oniv members of its tribe
can. The terrified girls fled for the
nearest house three-quarterS OF mile
away, with the lynx raging at Their
heels, but apparently lacking the nerve
to leap upon them.

OREGON BANS FIRE
CRACKERS FOR BOYS

PORTLAND, Ore, June 12.-Oregon
will he without firecrackers tins
Fourth of July. The days when Young
patriots stood bravely by the side OF
t.giant crackers to observe at flrst
hand the phenomina of their dislntl-
grafton under the stress of exploding
powder, have gone, never TO return.
All because the state dads, III legls-
lature assembled, passed an act during
the 1927 session, and which became eff
fective January l, of this year, ban
ming firecrackcrs, rockets, torpedoes,
blank cartridges, caps, Roman candles,
pistols, canes, and all sundry and divers
forms of ex plosives and pyroteehnlcs
heretofore indisolubly associated with
the celebration of the day when John
Hancock took his pen in hand.
The youth of the state, however, are
permitted to stand by and marvel at
whatever municipal display of fire
works the cities and towns OF Oregon
may see fit to stage on the day IN
question.

SHAKES MEAN HOOP
ON 92ND BIRTHDAY

SARANAC LAKE, June 12.-Despite
his four score and y years William j.
Fisher of the Adirondack hamlet OF
Whallonsburg can still shake n wicked
hoof. In fact he is curly wolf when
it comes to flapping his Cinderellas.
At q recent birthday party given in
honor of his ninety-second birthday he
took and held the center of the stage
by proceeding to show the rising gen
Grafton how to ''ho it down" i'll the
old fashioned square dances that were
a riot back in the days before the Civil
War when he used to be ''out with the
boys"
The fact that he has nearly reached
the century mark has not slowed him
up in the least and he positively re-
fuses to take seat in the rear for any
of the present day tango lizards.

with corresponding dependents of another 4000, making total of about 5000 souls in all, directly dependent on the lumber mills for their exist ence. What benefit the merchants and others in the vicinity of these mills derive from their existence is best known to you. A payroll of be- tween, two and two and half million dollars per annum is bound to be of considerable benefit to the communi- ties in which it is expended.
 These mills in northern Arizona op- crate about ITO miles of their own track, each one maintaining a com plete railroad organization with equip ment of approximately 15 to 16 To- comotives and 300 logging cars.
 The state and county taxes paid by these mills approximate $1OO,00O per annum. You should know that they pay for timber purchased from the state and government approximately $400,000 per annum, and that con- siderable percentage of this goes to the state for the use of the university at Tucson, and a proper percentage for the building and maintenance of roads in the county.

dustry in northern Arizona, approxi- mately 54 per cent is pay roll, and the balance is for supplies purchased largely right here at home. Your wa ter account in Flagstaff is increased yearly by the three lumber mills by between Is and 16 thousand dollars.
 The foregoing figures are based on the operations at full production and are approximately correct. Full pro- duction is one of the greatest essen- tials to the success of the lumher op- orator, and reduced production and enforced shut-downs, by reason of the terrific overhead expense which is al- ways existent in the lumber business, soon eat up whatever profit might be derived from active operations.
 l trust that you will be able to re- member some of the figures that have given you, and that you will ap- preciate the magnitude and value of the lumber industry in northern Ari- zona and what it means to this sec tion. Let us hope that conditions throughout the country will permit our mills to operate to full capacity for many years.

The following, from the talk given on Tuesday of last week before the members of the club and their ladies and guests by President I. B. Koch of the club, who also is vice-president and manager of the Arizona Lumber & Timber Co.,, of this city, contains many interesting facts about the lum- Der industry, and answers many ques- tions---one, in particular, concerning lumber prices-that many of us have asked.
 Fellow Rotarians and Friends:
 It is genuine pleasure to see you gathered about the camp table, and particularly to have you as our guests. One of the principles of Rotary is get ting acquainted with the other fel- lows business troubles, as we'll as en- toying with him his business pleas ures. Now it is not my intention to burden you with our troubles, but 1 feel that each one of us has his own problems to solve and his difficulties to overcome, and I am going to ask you to bear with me for a few mos ments while tell you some few things about the lumber industry, particular ly as relates to northern Arizona.
 You should know that in the days when George Washington and his men cut down pine trees in the New Eng land states to build Qualifications for themselves, America had 822 billion acres of timber. Five sixths of th;s enormous stand is now gone, partly due to destruction by fire, and partly by the logger or due to the clearing of the land for agricultural purposes. You should know that we are now cutting 26 billion cubic feet of timber a year, and producing by reforesta- tion and natural growth approximate ly six billion feet, which would make a net loss of 20 billion feet per an- mum in our timber reserve. This is indeed a very serious situation and one which we should all ponder over. However, personally have great faith in the inventive mind of Americans and feel that suitable substitute for wood will be found long before our timber supply is exhausted.
 Arizona possesses in standing tim Der under government control, about 12 billion feet, and there are approx imately $50 million feet in private holdings. The state itself with its 46,- 900 acres of timber lands, owns ap- proximately 230 million feet, making a grand total of about IS billion feet for the Arizona stand. There are
