FORESTAT|ON BILL
WOULD AUGMENT
STATE WOODLAND
Vast Waste Tracts May Be
Saved for PoSterity if
Measure Passes,

Transforming Of a part of 2,763,0 900
acres Of waste land in Indiana into
valuable forest tracts was foreseen
today by William A. Guthrie, chair
man Of the State conservation com
mission, in the probable passage of
the McNary forestation bill in the
United States Senate.
State officials have been informed
that the measure will come up today
in Washington for hearing.
Indiana would benefit more by the
plan than many other States, it is
pointed out Appropriate Of $780,
600 annually to the Secretary Of Ag
riculture would be available for
''haIf-and-half" aid to States for fire
protection Of growing timber.
Ohio River Forest Possible
Purchase and distribution of seed
on the same basis is provided for in
a 100000 fund annually.
Purchase of timber land needed for
protection Of watersheds would be
subject to recommendation by the
Secretary of Agriculture and action
BY the National Forest Reservation
Commission.
A possibility that the act might
make possible the creation of National
forests in Indiana near the Ohio River
is a matter Of speculation
OF the %, 400 900 acres Of land in
the State, only per cent Of it IS in
timber, Guthrie declared. Many set
tiers come to Indiana from the South,
settled in the southern sections be-
cause of river transportation, and then
abandoned the land which has been
since washed out by rains.
Could Buy 5000 Acres
I'VE believe that southern Indiana
ought to have a million and a half to
two million and half feet of growing
timber" Guthrie said. I'VE could buy
all the land between Blue River and
the Ohio on an average of SO an acre
There are 5000 acres in the tract"
Ultimate benefit to the State in a
Federal aid forestation plan is empha-
sized, officials add, by the fact that
S175, 600, 900 is invested in woodwork
ing machinery, while the output Of
wood products annually is estimated
at $40, O00. 900
Indiana manufacturers at present
import two-thirds Of all timbers used.

LEAP YEAR EDITION
 STIKINE MESSENGER
 HIGHLY CREDITABLE

The Leap year edition of the Sti- kline Messenger, published on the twentyninth of February by the girls of the High School, was a splen- ididly gotten up six-page paper and reflected much credit on the girls and their adviser, Miss Alice Carlson. teacher of English and History, and could be shown with pride by any school. When it is considered tha' the total enrolment of the High School is only 25, the achievement of the girls is the more remarkable. The High School boys will issue the March number of the Messenger and they make no secret of the fact that they expect to put out some paper. Send A Messenger Home
 Copies of the Leap year edition of the Stikine Messenger are on sale at the Drug Store, the High School and Sentinel office. Mail a copy home and show your folks that you live in progressive town, where the youngsters make up in pep what they lack in numbers.

 tion from the unit. It is expected that the advertising fund will be considerably augmented in this way.

WASHINGTON-Senator Pat Har- rison of Mississippi in a speech late today assailed President Coolidge and E. B. Mclean and ripped into Daugherty, taunting the Republi- cans with the assertion that "Daugherty is fighter and will come back here and beard you in your den, and you will grow weak at the sight of him. Continuing Senator Harrison said ''On January 12 2 message was sent Mclean from the White House. It is bad enough when employees of the White House send messages to men like Mclean, but for the President himself to do it is the limit. It is surely rotten situation when Mclean, with all his guilt being heaped upon him, seeks the advice of the President of the United States.

Now We have the operator at the White House and Me Leans private operator one and the same man."

LEAP YEAR DANCE
 WAS BIG SUCCESS

The Leap year library benefit dance which was postponed earlier 1 in the month was given by the Civic Club at the Rink on Friday evening, February 29. and the plans which had been made for the earlier date
 were carried out. The Club had re- quested those who came to the dance to represent the title of some well
 known book and there were many clever characterizations in conse- quence. This formed the basis of a guessing contest in which Miss Eto- Hin Coulter won the first prize for
 guessing the most titles and Miss Margaret Otteson won second prize, Miss Gertrude Goodrich, who repre- Isented Peter Rabbit, was awarded the prize for the most clever cos tune. Books were given as prizes.
 The dance was leap year propo- sition and the ladies footed the bills there being no admission charge for the gentlemen unless they came un- accompanied. Every dance was a ladies. choice. w. R. Nevill as floor manager contributed in large meas ure to the success of the occasion. The men served refreshments rerer5- ing the usual order of things.
 The Rink had been tastefully dec orated in a Valentine scheme which
 was very effective. Music was fur nished by Lawrence Taylor at the piano and Arthur Nelson. drums and received much favorable com |ment.
 The affair netted the ladies S7435
 which they will use to further the
 work of the library.

MIR. AND MRS. JIM ALLEN HAVE DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE

Capsized twice from row boat in the swift tide of Wrangell Narrows, the last time clinging to the bottom of the boat while it was propelled ashore by her husband swimming with heavy rubber boots and with the painter in his mouth, is the expe- rience of Mrs. J. c. Allen who left here Monday on the Mckee gas boat Jessie for the Green Rocks fox farm.
 Arriving near the farm, Mrs. Al len was met by her husband in a row boat. On stepping aboard the small boat it was capsized by Mrs. Allen slipping and MT. Allen trying to catch her. The two were helped on board by Mckee. It was dark and the two in their drenched clothes did not notice at first there was so much water in the boat and after it had left the gas boat the second time, it turned over again. Mckee had gone inside the gas boat to look after the engine and did not see the second ac- icident. Mir. Allen though handi- capped with heavy rubber boots, managed to place Mrs. Allen on top of the boat, then took the small tow line in his mouth and propelled the boat ashore. Mrs. Allen has been in bed suffering. nervous collapse. Petersburg Report.

 Uncle Sam demands a four-year course before issuing a diploma to his Eskimo wards. During this pe- riod the student is not only enrolled but indentured for the full term. l When the Eskimo graduates he is a specialist, possessed of valuable technical as we'll as practical knowl- edge of his profession. By the same means he is emancipated from life of heroic struggle for existence and lifted from wretched savagery, made to be self-supporting and is rapidly meeting a great problem of the white man-creating meat supply to meet the deficiency due to the gradual' passing of the great cattle ranges of the more thickly populated States

Eskimos Lead In
 Bachelor Degrees

Would you believe it, the Eskimos of Alaska have taken more college degrees than all other Alaskans com bined. Not degrees in outside uni versailles, but from matriculation in a purely Alaskan seat of learning.
 When you can write "B. H." after your name you may stand in class with Uncle Sans most primitive wards of the far North.
 And these examples of higher learning have diplomas to back up the right to affix B. H. after their name, and by the same token, if you cannot boast as much you have no chance of invading the field in which these college graduates rule supreme as specialists in a. given calling.
 Unlike other students, they have not enjoyed the advantages of steam heated dormitories, frat houses and the concomitants considered essen- tial in modern life; they have col lege yell, too, but only Eskimos can sound it. Others have tried it but sprained a larynx. All studies of these strange students have been conducted in the open, either sitting on "niggerhead" intruding above the rolling tundra, or facing a blind ling blizzard two jumps behind a reindeer. And the student, like the reindeer, is walking or running.
