National Forests
In New England

The illustrated report of the national
forest reservation commission for the
past year is available for distribution.
This commission, Of which Senator
Reyes of New Hampshire is a member,
authorizes the purchase of lands for
eastern national forests. The original
bill under which lands are being ac-
quired is known as the Weeks law,
having been introduced by Senator
Weeks, afterwards secretary Of war.
These lands have been acquired at a
cost of $3,49S,1SS. This land is admin
istered from Gorham, N. H., as the
White Mountain National Forest. The
report shows that the government has
acquired 462,S24 acres of land for ma
tional forests in the White Mountains,
of which 430,56S acres are in New
Hampshire and 32,256 acres are in
oxford county, Maine.
The purchase program of the govern
ment in the White Mountains is about
one-half completed so that upon COM
pletion there would be total area of
about 100000 acres of national forest
land within this region. During the
past year additions amounting to 21,-
619 acres were made in the White
Mountains. The national forests are
largely located in New Hampshire in
the following counties: Carroll, with
10000 acres; Coos, 1S2,492; Grafton,
13S,057. Ten cities and towns and two
large hotels secure their supply of wa
ter for domestice purposes. either in
whole or in part. from the White
Mountain National Forest. Many scenic
peaks have been acquired, some of
them with their slopes still clothed
with stretches of magnificent primeval
forests, including Whiteface, Wona-
lancet, Passaconaway, Paugus, Choco-
rua, Bald Face, the west slope of
Mount Pequawket, the western slope
of Mount Tecumseh and Mount Os-
ceola.
Lands are acquired only within GER
tain definite areas with view to
bringing under government control
large compact bodies which can be
easily administered and cheaply pro-
tected from fire. Notwithstanding
that purchases for eastern national
forests were begun only Is years ago,
and that most Of the land acquired
has been cut over or culled of it's best
timber, the report shows that the In
come from all of these eastern forests
last year amounted to $127.729, and
this income has amounted to more than
100000 a year for the past seven
years. The forests are practically
paying their way at present, and soon
it is expected will be paying some in
terest upon their cost.
There is a reserve Of more than i've
billion feet of timber. but the sale of
| timber Is not being pushed, sales be-
ing made at present primarily to sup
plylocal needs. to give steady employ
| ment to local people and to salvage
old or diseased timber and for i'm
provement purposes. About one-half of
| one per cent. of the total area of these
national forests was burned over dur
ing the preceding year, with total
damages amounting to $42s4, the total
number of fires being 426. The total
cost of the 2,5S5,076 acres so far ac-
| quired in the east amounts to s496 an
i acre, of which 247,067 acres were ac-
quired last year.
The report can be secured from w.
w. Ashe. secretary, National Forest
Reservation Commission, Washington,

Frederic Harrison Rollins


The death of Frederic Harrison
Rollins occurred early Sunday morn
ing. February z, at the Elm City
Hospital in Waterville. where he had
undergone an operation for appendi-
citis. His death came as great
shock to his family and his many
friends.
He was born in Sangerville, April
10, 1902, and lived there until 1916,
when his family moved to Winslow.
He graduated from Winslow High
School in the class of 1921. He spent
much time in Shirley with a sister,
Mrs. Frank A. Phillips.
Freddie" was boy who thought
of everyone as his friend, and that
he had a host of them was attested
by the many beautiful floral tributes
received.
He Is survived by his mother and
father. Mr.. and Mrs. r. e. Rollins Of
Benton Avenue, Winslow. and by
four sisters and three brothers. Mrs.
F. A. Phillips, Mrs, /. G.. Starbird.
Miss Vivien Rollins, Miss Evelyn
Rollins. Mr.. Volney Rollins. Eugene
Rollins and Ernest Rollins.
The funeral services were held
from the home at one o'clock. Tues
day afternoon, and were private. All
of the surviving members of the
family were present. The Reverend
Mr.. Beatty of the Getchell Street
Baptist Church spoke words Of COM
Tort to the bereaved family. The re-
mains were placed in the tomb at the
Pine Grove Cemetery to await inter-
ment.
The bearers were his three broth
ers and his chum. Eric Wolfe.

Science Rediscovers God and the
Soul

According to Henry Fairfield Os-
born, President of the American
Museum of Natural History, writing
In The Forum, science has swung
away from the materialism of the end
Nof the nineteenth century and is re-
discovering God and the soul Of man.
1t would be difficult to fix the date
for the return swing of the pendulum
away from purely materialistic and
mechanistic interpretations toward
spiritual and theological interpreta-
tons not in the least resembling the
old but pointing toward new forms of
belief and of faith in which there is
no -schism between the teachings Of
Nature and the aspirations of re-
hgion. The World War certainly ac-
CELEBRATED this spiritual movement, be-
cause it engendered a horror of
mechanism and materialism and plac-
ed new emphasis upon the spiritual
basis of conduct rather than upon
the mechanistic. The movement was
not led. as might have been expected,
by biologists, still less by psychology
lists. We must turn to physicists
and Psychologists for a rediscovery of
the soul and the spiritual nature Of
man.
