EONS OLD
PLACED ON VIEW
Trees of Mid-Devonian
Period Put on Display.
Memorial to Dawson.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associs ted Press.
ALBANY, n. T.. February 1.-THE
history Of New York State was turn
ed back 100. 600, 900 years for little
group of distinguished geologists and
State officials who assembled in the
museum section of the New York
State Education Building today to
witness the formal. opening OF res
toration Of forest OF the Middle De-
vonian period, reconstructed from
fossil remains of trees uncovered at
Gilboa, II. y.
For nearly year the restoration
has been in process, having been
made possible through an appropria-
tion by the 1924 Legislature. AS the
exhibit formally was opened to view
today 1t also was dedicated with
simple ceremonies as a memorial to
Sir John William Dawson, F. K. s..
r. G. s., former principal of McGill
University, Montreal, who in 1869 and
1870 worked out the structure Of
fossil tree trunks uncovered by a
Spring freshet along the Schoharie
River near Gilboa and thus became
tree of the Middle Devonian period,
as he believed these remains to be.
Work Resumed in 1920.
With his death in 1899 the research
work was allowed to drop, except for
infrequent periods, until 1920. AT
that time the New York city board OF
water supply, beginning excavations
near Gilboa for the site Of the Gilboa
Dam, exposed three layers of the fos-
sill tree trunks, separated by vertical
intervals of approximately so feet or
barren sandstone rock.
Careful examination of the rocks
resulted in the acquisition of parts
of the trunks Of these trees, their
roots, foliage and seed-bearing cap.
sules. Enough material Of this sort
was brought together to permit the
reconstruction in detail Of the trees
as they originally stood.
The immediate foreground Of the
exhibit represents a reproduction Of
the rocky lodges in which the stumps
were found. with real water trickling
through the crevices into a pool at
the bottom of the stump-laden rocks,
and the background showing the for
est growing as in the Devonian
times. A small group Of reproduced
fern trees Of the period fades out to
the painted reproduction of the
swamp forest.

BY the Associated Press

Public sentiment favoring the en-
forcement of existing laws is largely
a matter for the church, Senator
Simeon d. Fess Of Ohio. told more

enforcement lines.
Law enforcement" he said, 'rs not

laws enough. 1t is the work of the
administrator on the one hand and the

births and 473,27o deaths. The births
were almost 10000 fewer than in
1923, and the deaths almost 10000
more. but the natural increase IN
population, 1t will be seen by COM
nar,ne deaths with births, amounted
to roughly 100000 people.
Emigration rids this overcrowded
land of only minor proportion OF
the increase that the population
makes every year. There are more
people In the country by over Z'ooo,-
zoo than before the war. and doubt-
less there are almost as many at
work, yet the army of unemployed
remains around 1,250.000. This has
led many to believe that unempioy.
ment has become chronic IN Great
Britain.
Both the death rate and the infant
mortality rate were slightly hlshef
last year than in 1873.
