FAMOUS COACH SAYS

The best collegiate swimming
tank and equipment in the entire
country is the name given the

<of Wyoming by Ernest Brandsten,
swimming coach of the crack Stan
ford University team and one of
the foremost coaches of swimming
in the United States. Brandston
gave expression to his admiration
of the Wyoming swimming pool i'm
mediately following the recent in
tersectional swimming meet at Lar
annie between the University of
wyoming and Stanford University.
Altho the Cardinal swimmers won
the meet by a score of A to IA,
the Stanford Coach was flattering
in his comment on the start made
in swimming by the Cowboy tank
team and OF the coaching ability
swimming coach and a former mem
Der of the United States Olympic
swimming team.
In a signed statement, the Stan
ford coach said: "In all the trips
that the Stanford swimming teams
have taken, at no time have we
ever had the good fortune to COM
pete in as fine a pool as the one
you (the University of Wyoming)
have here. 1 think, and I am prac-
tically sure, thai you have the best
collegiate tank and equipment in

American Forest Week
April 18 "a
CONTINUED from Page II

tSOutluutu ITOm rage -
mense stretches of c~ut-over land
mostly too rough or too sterile for
tilling, have not awakened us to
their vast potential worth as grow
ers of wood. Fully o%ne-fourth of
our land area ought to be kept in
forest-not poor dwindling thick
cts of scrub. but forests of trees
fit for bridges and houses and
ships.''
The Forest Fire Menace
Fire is the greatest single enemy
of the forests. The United States
Forest Service places the annual
number of forest fires in the entire
United States at 1000. The av-
erage area swept by fires each year
stands at 14.6OOO.O 900 acres of
which 1O,5OO.00O acres is forest
land. The annual damage runs up
to $2O,0O0,0O0, exclusive of damage
to young growth, water shed pro-
lection, recreational facilities, and
other damage Upon which no exact
money value can be placed.
The outstanding fact about for
est fires is that 90 per cent of
them are man caused. When the
American people stop burning their
wooded areas the solution of the
Nations timber supply problem will
not be far off.
A Few Easy Rules to Observe
1t is not difficult for anyone to
be careful with fire while in wood
ed areas. Here are simple rules
which if observed will go far to-
ward reducing the appalling num-
Der of man-caused forest fires re-
ported every year.
/. Matches-Be sure your match
is out. Break it in two before you
throw it away.
Q. Tobacco-Be sure that pipe
ashes and cigar or cigarette stubs
are dead before throwing them
away. Never throw them into brush
leaves, or needles.
3. Making camp-Before build
ing a fire scrape away all inflam-
mable material from a spot 5 feet
in diameter. Dig a hole in the cen
ter and in it build your camp fire.
Keep your fire small. Never build
it against trees, or logs, or near
brush.
A.. Breaking camp-Never break
camp until your fire is out-dead
out.
5. Brush burning-Never burn
slash or brush in windy weather
or while there is the slightest
danger that the fire will get away.
6. How to put out a camp fire
Stir the Goals while soaking them
with water. Turn small sticks and
drench both sides. We the ground
around the fire. If you can't get
water stir in dirt and tread it down
until packed tight over and around
the fire. Be sure the last spark is
dead.

$50, 900 FIRE AT FORT d. A.
Observation-Disclosures BURN

A fire on Thursday morning to-
tally destroyed the stables of the
18th Field Artillery at Fort d. A.
Russell, Cheyenne, causing a loss
estimated at about $40 900. The
stables accommodated ninety horses
all of which were being used in
drilling at the time of the fire.
The fire was discovered shortly
after nine o'clock in the forenoon
and despite all that the fire de-
partments could do the buildings
were RACED to the ground. A short
circuit in the wire is blamed for the
conflagration.

which any other dog could do that
Evening star., 1926-04-30

Spot could not do a great deal better.
Being modest withal, he would not
claim to be a superdog. Tho fact was
that life at Moose Lake demanded the
exercise of certain qualities or one did
not live. And that, as they say In the
Northwest, was all there was to it.

Thus far Panton had met with no
veXstious delays and no real official
drawbacks. 1t was rather bewidering,
therefore, to find that no one knew
him. that the resident mana ger on
whose help he had counted was far
away at Ottawa engaged in some par
ltHmentary business, and that an un.
derling who condescended to listen for
a minute had no counsel to offer save
a. negative one.

alias Parke, went out and consulted
Spot on the sidewalk.
We're up against it, pup" he said.
'frhe fact is, neither of us looks al
together respectable. That coat of
yours needs clipping. and my canvas
suit is just about as convincing as
striped stockings and a jacket stamped

Spot wagged his tail. He liked to
be talked to. Whatever master said
was right, and he signified the same in
the approved way.
An hour later, the Hon. John Bridg.
north Panton was more like his real
self. though his stock of ready ash
was reduced to a few dollars. At
Moose Lake he had no use whatever
for printed or minted money. All
transactions were in kind. He had
even forgotten what salary the ap-
pointment carried.
Once more he returned to the com.
pany's headquarters. This time he
was received less doubtingly, but
again met the blank wall of negation.
