VERSATILITY IS
 MIDDLE NAME OF
 FOREST RANGERS
Men Who Guard the National Forests Have Little or No Time for
 "Loafing on the Job."

Work of the United States Forest Rangers goes on, twelve months in the year, and while on the outside" people have contented themselves to settle down before comfortable fires during long winter days, Uncle Sans forest officers continue their vigil over timberlands. Snow is the
 winter enemy of forest trails, bend ing and breaking trees across the mountain byways and sending man. moth slides of timber, earth and stone across their courses. To some extent the more remote trails are left until spring for "swamping ors to keep the trail open to travel country the Forest Service endeav- ors to keep the train open to travel even in the dead of winter.
 Tasks of forest rangers vary. Down in the Puget Sound country few of the trails are kept open after late October or November. In some oCCllOuS, IOWCFCi, WuSIc lIduSpOr- tation and travel is necessary the year around, rangers are occupied with constant clearing away of obstructions that usually present themselves with the first heavy snowfall. Telephone lines strung through mountainous country also require the rangers attention and demand more surveillance than trails, for telephone communication must be kept open at all cost.
 In mining districts, like in Alaska, where men work in winter months as we'll as summer, the need of open trails and phone lines in perfect work ing order is apparent. It is not all sitting around the hearthside with the ranger. His crew of summer men

Royalists Like To
 Be Photographed

LONDON, Jan. 14-"Royalty are the best sitters in the world No commoner whom know shows such consideration of photographer as do those of royal blood.'
 So said Richard Speaight, and he ought to know, for during the past twenty-five years he has had occa- sion to photograph members of al most every royal family in Europe.
 The mode of living among those to the manner born has changed almost as much as has that of the man in the street, thinks Speaight. ''The austerity and discipline which surrounded the royal family of Great Britain in days gone by has been displaced by a very charming democratic spirit" he says. For instance, many years ago when was doing my first work for them had to remove my paraphenalia from the room in which I had first been told to set up,' because Queen Victoria wished to pass through that particular room. How different my reception a few weeks ago when I was photographing the youngest child of Princess Mary. On this occasion Lord Lascelles stood by and held the hand of his son, so that he could not interfere with my work"
 Among his other experiences Speaight, while taking some pie lures at a royal baptism, was once mistaken for the organist and con graduated by a short sighted and deaf old Duchess because of the beautiful music which he had ren- dered for the occasion
 Getting smiles at the proper mo- ment is one of the greatest trials of every photographer. Two ways have been used by Speaight to get the Prince of Wales into the right Mood Once, when the prince was only a baby, he carried number of toys which had the desired re- suits. On another occasion not so long since he carried with him a friend whom the prince had not seen for long time Keepins this friend in the background until all was set, he was able to get real and natu, raj smile when the friend was pro- cuced.
 Royalty also likes to take photo graphs it seems from another ex- rerience of Speaight. Once, while

A DRAINAGE PROJECT THAT
IS A GRAVEYARD OF HOPES
Hyde County, North Carolina, Scene
Of Tragedy That Cost Millions.

A graveyard of hopes instead of the
Garden of Eden that men had set their
hearts and dollars on making it. That
is Hyde county, N. c. Water has re-
turned to claim the huge project where
millions of dollars were spent to drain
nearly 100000 acres in the Lake Mat
tamuskeet section in the eastern part
of the state.
Hundreds of persons invested their
money in the project, which was to
drain the lake and adjacent swamp
land. After fortune had been spent
the plan failed.
Before failure came, however, roads
were built, a village sprang up, and
a railroad was constructed. Then came
bankruptcy. The villagers, sad because
of the loss of their money, departed.
Now the whole section is under water
again.
Wild swans live in areas intended
for rich harvests. Over the lake hangs
"a pail of tragedy. Not far away is the
deserted village, its houses and its
hotel overrun with water in flood
time. The railroad is under water, too,
and the highways are little better than
long mud holes. 1t is a graveyard OF
hopes-and many dollars.

DAKOTA MAKES A MOVE
FOR FEWER LAW MAKERS
May Abolish Low-House Legislative
Plan. Sentiment Growing.

South Dakota is interesting Itself
seriously in another governmental in
novation-a one-house legislature.
This Legislative reform is proposed
and sponsored by Robert Emmett
Dowdell. a veteran democrat and state
senator, but it has gained support
from so wide range of political
thought in the state that it already
looms as a major issue in the legisla-
ture that next meets.
Proposes One House.
The plan contemplates elimination
of the state senate and house of rep
resentatives, now composed of 40 and
1903 members, respectively, and the
setting up in their stead of a single
house with from 10 to II members
Its members would be elected from
districts in proportion to population,
and with little regard for county lines.
Senator Dowdel1 first proposed the
plan II years ago, but not until re-
cent years has his innovation found
general support or gained enough ad-
herents to bring it before the legisla-
ture for serious consideration.
