CHANGES IN SYSTEM
OF EDUCATION BOARD

Changes in the manner of handling
the routine financial matters of the
state board of education were made
Tuesday. The changes are made to
conform with the new conditions
brought about by the absence Of the
commissioner of education and the
business agent, the last legislature
having failed to provide for the sal
aries for these two positions after
the first of July of this year.
DR.. E. A. Bryan, retiring commits
sioner of education, filed letter
Tuesday with the state board of ex-
aminers, stating that Miss Mary L.
Wilson, chief clerk of the depart
ment, has been authorized to verify
the genuineness and authenticity of
all vouchers, acquisitions and pur-
chase orders, work which was for
merly handled by A c. Price, bust
ness agent for the board of educa-
ton
DR.. Bryan filed his resignation
with the board July 1, but is remain
ing in his office for few days,
cleaning up the work of the depart
ment. He has so far given out no
statement as to his future plans.

FACULTY SCHOOL
OF FORESTRY BUSY
DEAN MILLER, BEHRE, SCHMITZ,
AND WATSON ENGAGED IN
INVESTIGATIONAL WORK

The faculty of the university IS
school of forestry is again occupied
during the summer with forestry in
vestigations in the field.
Dean F. G. Miller is in south Idaho
conducting growth studies in wood
lots and shelter belts, with special
reference to the growth of black To-
Gust to determine the yields in fence
posts, poles and other material I'M
der irrigation. A question very fire.
quently raised on the part of pros
pective planters is what may be ex-
planting of black locust and how long
marily to enable the school to ans
wer this question that these growth
studies are being made. More or less
attention will also be given to the
growth rate of other species.
Prof. G. E. Behre is in charge of a
party which is making, growth and
yield studies of western white pine
after logging. A serious menace to
the future of forestry in the white
pine type is the common practice of
broadcast burning the slash incident
to logging, the chief objection being
that it kills all the young growth
left. From both the protection and
silvicultural viewpoints, foresters are
advocating the piling of slash before
it is burned so as to save this young
growth as the foundation of the new
crop. This, of course, entails some
extra expense on the part of the
operator, but it is expected that this
investigator will show this added ex-
pense to be justified by the value of
the young growth saved and the re-
duction of the fire hazard
DR.. Henry Schmitz has general di-
rection of white pine blister rust con-
troll, working in cooperation with the
lumbermen of the state, the Idaho
state department of agriculture and
the office of white pine blister rust
control, United States department of
agriculture. AS far as is known this
disease has not yet reached Idaho,
but it is confidently expected that it
will do so within the next five to
ten years. Hence the blister rust
situation is becoming more and more
serious and the school of forestry |
considers the work of helping to pro-
tect the lumber industry from the
ravages of this disease as one of
it's major activities. DR.. Schmitz has
a party of six men in the field scout /
ing for the disease and working out
control measures.
c. w Watson, instructor in silvicul-
ture and grazing, is spending the
summer in research studies at the
Great Basin experiment station near
Utah. This is the central
station of the United States forest ser
vice for conducting Investigations in
range management.

|SAYS FIGHT WAS
fine EXHIBITION
TOM WRIGHT STRONG FOR GIB-
BONS, BUT SAYS CAN NEVER
OVERCOME DEMPSEY WEIGHT

Gibbons put up wonderful fight
against Dempsey, but he will never
be able to get decision over him,
in my opinion, because he is too light
to deliver knockout blow to the
champion" said t. NJ Wright of the
Moscow hotel, who arrived at home
Thursday night from Shelby, where
he witnessed the big boxing contest
Mr.. Wright went from Spokane on
the Spokane special, and states that
the Pullman cars were parked short
distance from the arena, making it
very convenient for the fans The
fight, he said, was one of the finest
exhibitions that it has ever been the
privilege of boxing fans to witness
and there was never a murmer of dis
satisfaction from the crowd, it being
square and that the decision was
justly awarded to Dempsey, even
though Gibbons had a big majority
of the crowd with him.
Gibbons held up his end of the fight
all the time, Mr.. Wright said, stand
ing up to his opponent and fighting
almost all the time with his head
over Dempsey's shoulder, each admin
istering short jabs, Dempsey striking
Gibbons mostly in the back of the
neck. The men fought for more than
an hour in an arena which was little
less than an oven and which con-
tanned at least $4,000 people, not a
great many of whom, however, paid
the high price first asked for seats
Neither man touched the floor and
Mr. Wright says that neither man
showed any evidence to speak of, of
injury.
q walked out of the arena beside
slapped him on the back and talked
with him. That was about ten min
utes after the fight ended, and he
was smiling and showed no marks
whatever. He is a pleasant fellow
and a wonderful boxer, but lacks the
power and weight which Dempsey
has He clearly outboxed Dempsey
in three rounds out of the Is and |
stood up to him through the entire
fifteen rounds"
Mr.. Wright said that cars were
parked for several miles outside of
Shelby and that the town is anything
but an attractive place AS soon as
the fight was over people began to
leave and it was not long until the
bulk of the crowd had gone. Thou
sands travelled by automobile and
cars were parked for miles outside
the town. The town is filled with /
oil offices, but the closest producing
wells are some 16 miles away. 1t is
a typical frontier town.

SUGGESTS ANGLlCANS
JOIN CHURCH UNION

TORONTO. June 2O.-A suggestion
that the Anglican and possibly the
Baptist churches in Canada, join the
recently formed Canadian Union of
Presbyterian. Congregational and
Methodist Churches was made by
the Rt. Rev. George Exton Lloyd,
Anglican bishop OF Saskatchewan, in
a statement just issued.
He suggested that the greatest OBJ
stacle to the larger union from the
point of view of the theologian is the
ordination, while to the average lay
man the chief difficulty is the form
of service.
Bishop Lloyd would provide joint
ordination. Anglican clergymen who
refuse anything but Episcopal ordi-
nation would minister to liturgical
congregations only, while clergy of
other denominations who refuse the
joint ordination would minister to
non-liturgical congregations.

WHY LEGION POSTS PROGRESS
Working Hand In Hand With Re.
spsetivs Communities Rssults In
Msmbsrship Increase.

Progress Of the posts Of the Ameri-
can Legion Is founded on the relations
with the community In which they are
located, according to findings Of the
national officers OF the organization
from survey Of posts showing regu-
lar membership increase.
This survey was made in % states,
principally those Of agricultural re-
gions, and represented reports from
$40 posts In towns with an average
population Of II. .l03 persons. Each Of
these posts has shown membership In
crease over that Of the preceding year.
Membership growth Of these posts has
not been sporadic. 1t has been steady
and sure. OF the 800 posts formed In
1910, an average Of 80 members was
shown. In 1920 this average for S57
posts had dropped to %. The next
year 304 posts added one more to tho
average In 1922. the average for 6OO
posts jumped to SO md thus far the
6IO posts show an average Of 81 mem-
bers
Reasons assigned for this growth
are primarily due to interest in civic
affairs. A majority OF post officers
say that membership hns grown he
cause ''they have sold the Legion to
the communlty!' Such posts have en-
countered little opposition In their
fve-yenr progress In Legion activity.
Actual accomplishments OF the lie.

veterans OF the needs Of the commu-
mites. The quest!onnalres show TINT
