Al meeting this afternoon at
o'clock in Mayor 4. NJ. Paonessa 6
Office, plans will he made for a cam
paign to raise funds to pay New
Britains share of the expense of
| maintaining camp for disa bled
world war veterans at Mantle. The
camp was in operation last year and
although several soldiers from this
city benefited thereby, there was no
contribution from the Hardware City.
This year It is planned to raise a
fund of $4,000 throughout Litchfield
Tolland Windham and Hartford
counties and establish the camp on
permanent basis year after year with
out the need of additional funds.
Mayor A. NJ. paonessa, ex- Mayor
George A. Quigley and Robert c.
Vance are the trustees for New Brit
ain. At this afternoons meeting, Ma
than Avery and Raymond c. Frost
represented the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, Clifford Hellberg represented

chauer and Dewey Seiander were
present as delegates OF the Disabled
Veterans of the World War.
At the camp last year 225 veterans
who were disa bed in the war attend
ed. Official reports show that every
man who stayed one week gained
weight. The outdoor exercises, the
d abundance of nutritious food and the
close medical supervision, combined
with the peculiar carefree atmosphere
of the camp helped the boys to a
greater extent, they said, than months |
in the hospital. The camp was one OF |
the first of it's kind stablishcd In the |

When Offer of Larger
Salary Here Is Made

The resignation of DR.. j. Il. Lee
as superintendent of health, effective
juno Is, was accepted this morning
by the board of health with regrets
and with an expression of best wishes
for success in his new position as
city health officer at Paterson, n. j.,
after an unsuccessful attempt was
made to have him reconsider.
4 special session of the board was
held at II o'clock today, DR.. II. T..
Bray, chairman, presiding, to act on
the resignation. DR.. Lee informed
the commissioners that he has signed
a tive-ycar contract with the Pater-
son board at salary of $4,000 per
year, which is $4,000 more than his
salary here. and his pay will be in
creased $500 "A year during each Of
the five years. The commissioners
asked Dr. Lee OF hold up the resig-
nation and reconsider, inquirlng as to
what his stand would be If the coun-
Gil should increase his salary to-
$4,000. DR.. Lee replied that he has
already signed contract at Paterson
and could not remian, much as he
would like to do so.
Several members of =. the council
called on Mayor 4. NJ. Paonessa this
morning and plans had been prac-
tically completed for special meet |
ing of the common council Monday
evening to consider a $4,000 increase
in DIR. Lees pay in an effort to retain |
his services here. They were told
that the health superintendent could
not remain and plans for the special
session were dropped.
Commenting on the resignation,
Mayor A. NJ. Paonessa said this morn
ng:
II feel that the loss of a man of
the caliber of DR.. Lee will be felt by
the people of our city. 1f 1t Is pos
sibe, DR.. Lee ought to be persuaded
to stay here at the salary of a pro-
fcssiona man. The city of Paterson.
y. j.. has offered our superintendent
5000 per year, with an increase OF
$500 a year for each OF the next five
years. II is my opinion that DIR. Lee
IS worth more than this offer to the
city of New Britain.

GUARD THE FORESTS

The recent warm summer days anC attendant forest fires, in which thou sands of acres of timber were burned game animals killed and fur pockets wiped out, show how necessary it is for Alaskans to be very careful ot fire. Possibly the locomotives on the government railroad were responsible for many of these fires. Others were undoubtedly set by campers, hunters, or prospectors.
 4 government forester who was here a few days ago said that 91 per cent Of forest fires are man-made. More than nine fires out of ten there fore have their origin in carelessness or neglect; and since the annual toll of fires in Alaska run into hundreds of thousands of dollars, the price of carelessness and neglect is high.
 Our standing timber some day will be one of our greatest assets. When we destroy it by fire We are through, as it takes several hundred years to reforest a burned-over section.
 Owing to the formation of Alaska soil. fires once started are difficuI to extinguish, as they shoulder for sev- eral weeks in the moss and tundra, running long distances under ground, and ready to famed into flame by the first gust of wind. Despite warnings and posted signs many persons delib- erately leave lighted fires in the for ests. An appeal to the good sense of the individual who visits the forests appears to be the only remedy.
 The forests are here tobe enjoyed. They are the heritage of all the peo- pie, and will if protected, be a never ending source Of revenue when all others fail. Let us guard our forests jealously.

gatherings of public or semi-public na. ture.
 In every newspaper office is a con- stant difference of opinion between the management and those who want advertising published without cost to them in the news columns. Also there is a constant stream of matter that comes through the mail that is really advertising and that it is attempted to get 1t in as news. This generally goes into the waste basket.
 The management of the newspaper judges whether matter is news or ad- vertising News is published free of cost. Advertising matter must be paid for if published. It is only by guarding carefully against free publi- cation of advertising in the news col umns that a newspaper can exist At the most the margin between profit and loss is very small.
