EXCELLENT TALK
ON PATRIOTISM
f. f. RANDALL TELLS DUTIES OF
CITIZENSHIP AT ELKS'
EXERCTSES

A fa1r sized crowd OF tOWnSpeOple
and out-of-town Elks attended the
impressive Flag Day ceremonies CIV
E-en at the ElLAs' temple at eight O'Clock
Thursday evening. R. R. Sherfey, ex-
alted ruler, presided and was assist
ed in the exercises by the other Of
ficers of the lodge. A beautiful fea-
ture of the ceremony was the build
ing of a floral bell on the altar TO
their significance.
Music was furnished by the Elks'
orchestra and quartet There were
also pleasing solo numbers Two es-
pecially appreciated numbers were a
vocal solo by Miss Bernadine Adair
and violin selection by Carl Claus.
H. G. Dale, head of the economics
department, at the university, gave
a detailed history of the American
flag.
A fine and fully appreciated pat
riotic address was delivered by F. F.
Randall of Lewiston.
Mr.. Randall said in part:
What Constitutes Patriotism
sThe performing Of civic duties is
the uppermOst manner in which the
people Of this or any other country
can uphold and respect their flag. 1t
is hard thing for one to keep at
tention on these civic duties when
there is no beating of drums or sound
of marching feet, but this, neverthe-
less, is the imperative thing for the
good citizen to do. The real patriot
Of today is he who performs his civic
and national duties as they come up
day by day.
For the past fifty years this coun-
try's plight has been the result of
too much boasting and too much ma
tionalism. Any people is short-sight-
ed and short-lived that thinks only
of self. The younger generation is
taking its cue from their seniors and
are thinking more of international
welfare rather than selfishly looking
out for their own country only. In
the past fifty years the supreme
thought has been for gainging of the
dollar This fact, and because we
have been too much engaged in ma
terial things, has brought on the war
and the following panics.
Moral courage rather than mere
physical courage is the need of this
generation at present. If war is to
be outlawed from the world the citi-
zen's great duty is to vote as often
as possible and as wisely as possible"

DEAN THOMPSON TELLS
STUDENTS ABOUT IDAHO

Dean Thomson, head of the schoo
of mines, addressed the summer
school students on "Idaho," at as
sembly this morning at ten o'clock
He opened his talk with a detailed
account of the drainage system OF
the state. The rivers and lakes were
pointed out and their value explain
ed.
The economic value of different
sections of Idaho was made clear by
Dean Thomson. The Boise valley ir-
rigation project was outlined with it's
many advantages clearly shown. The
vast mountain area of northern and
central Idaho was shown to have
much to contribute to the wealth and
prosperity of the state. The Palouse
farming country and the north Idaho
mining sections were explained, to-
gether with their economic value
Dean Messenger, director of the
summer session, gave short talk,
outlining the activities Of the sum
mer school.

STEADY DECREASE
in TIMBER ACREAGE
WOODLANDS RIGINALLY
TOTALED HALF AREA OF U. s.
CUT-OVER LAND IDLE

Washington-(A. P)-Nearly one
half of the land area of the United
States, or 822,0OO,00O acres, was orig
inally forested, but today there are
less than 470,000,000 acres of timber,
including inferior culled nd second
growth and millions of acres Of un-
productive land. Of this amount only
138,000,O00 acres are of virgin timber
land.
I" Mining of timber instead of cul-
tivation of this natural wealth as a
crop, is held responsible for depletion
of the country's timber resources in a
review published in the year book of
the department of agriculture for
1929.
Decrease FOur-FOld
The amount at present being taken
out of forests is estimated at four
times the replacement by growth
More than 100000 acres were de-
stroyed in recent year by 3S,400 for
est fires, and rs per cent of all lumber
is still being cut from virgin stands.
Millions Of Acres Idle
While clearing forested land origin
ally undertaken to aid agriculture,
the demands for timber soon out
stripped the farm land demands, until
now there are millions of cleared
acres idle. In Michigan, at the aver
age rate of settlement for the last 20
years, it would take $50 years to
settle the present area of cut-over
lands and the remaining timber land
that soon will be cut. In the southern
part of the Lower Michigan peninsula
1t would take 100 years.
The tradition that all cut or
burned-over forest land, or even the
greater part of it, is being taken by
agriculture is not borne out by facts"
the year book says. The total area
of forest lands already cut or burned
over, exclusive of farm wood lots,
that has not been taken for agricul-
tural use. has already grown to 49,
100000 acres. Furthermore, our for
est land is being cut over at the rate
of about 10,000,000 acres yearly, and
probably more than half this .afA is
in virgin forest"

c. B. Green, Jerry Gelwick Claude
Renfrew and others who are active

protective association. He states that
an unusually large number of fish
will be planted in the streams of
cries at Standpoint and Occur d'Alene
both being loaded with fish. In the
two hatcheries, he states, there are
probably five and one-half million
fish ready to be planted in the var
iOus streams. They are Of the east
ern brook, native and rainbow var
ieties
Mr. Thomas says that notwithstand-
ing the unfavorab1e weather condi-
tions, the sale of fishing and hunt
ing licenses has been most satisfac-
tory in north Idahos He spoke high
ly of the work being accomplished
by the various fish and game protect
i've association, and spoke especially
of the association here and that at
Pot1atch, which are among the most
active in the state.
Mr. Thomas says that he found The
crop conditions of the best, in all
the territory traversed in the trip
from Boise, and predicts that Idaho
will make long stride toward norm
al prosperity the coming fall.
