BEAVER DAM HELPS CONTROL OF LARGE
 FIRE IN FOREST
RANGERS RIP HOLE IN EMBANk- MENT RELEASING TORRENT
 OF WATER

ST. PAUL, July 3O (P)-Because water from beaver dam enabled desperate forest rangers to extinguish a stubborn forest fire, a new and staunch friend has been added to the beaver family's long list of Minnesota admirers.
 Ranger Mike Guthrie told how after a two-day battle his crew had sub dued three-mile long fire, with the exception of stretch along a ravine, when the blaze showed signs of again escaping control
 Noticing the dam short distance above the burning ravine the rangers ripped a hole in the embankment and released a torrent of water that soon made history of the fire.
 The frightened family of beavers witnessed destruction of the para disc which they had labored months in building. But the fire fighters had scarcely gone when the industrious little animals set to work to repair the damage.
 Now" Guthrie reported, "the bea- vers have patched their dam and are none the loser for having lost the supply of water. This confirms my belief that no beaver should be taken except in most extreme cases"

experienced u revival, with the exception that the
scene has changed. Now the best whaling grounds
are either off the coast of South America or ~
Alaska waters.
That the industry is far from dead one is at
tested by htc fact that the Alaskan fleet, IN the
year 1926 captured nearly 500 whales, according to
a report Of the department Of commerce These
500 whales produced 848,85O gallons If whale oil,
valued at $5O93lO; 1l4,A0O gallons Of sperm OIL
valued at 67 OG9 tons Of fertilizer from meat
valued at $53372 1873 # bone fertilizer, valued
at 1926; 1919 pounds Of picked meat, valued
at $6ll3; and 1G whale carcasscs, valued at $4,000,
making the total value of the products OF these
whales $G24,959
OF course the picturesque features have to great
extent disappeared. Instead Cf sail power, steam or
motor ships are used, harpoon guns have taken
place of the harpooner standing in the bow of a
urching long boat, and modern methods of hand
ling the captured mammals have taken almost all
the romance away from the business. Nevertheless
it is still an active one and contributes valuable
share toward our national wealth.

Public, Beauty

Those persons interested enough in artistic APP
pcarance to be observant, will have noticed vast
Improvement the last few years in the conceptions
Ct monuments, pubv. buildings, memorials, and
other objects, particularly those sponsored or built
by the federal government. There has been dis
tnct change for the better and it has not been a
matter of chance. It has been due to the splendid
efforts Of the national commission of fine arts and
report Of the commission, covering the period from
July 1, 1921, to Dec. 81, 1925, just made public.
Included in this report discussions Of progress
in the planning IF Washington the federal city;
public buildings and grounds; parks and parkways
the Arlington Memorial BRIDGE the Arlington Me-
mortal National cemetery; American cemeteries and
battle monuments in Europe the George Washing
ton Bcentennal celebration; currency, coins medals
and Standardization Of the United States flag,
buildings for the arts sciences and education; build
ngs for the District Of Columbia; the national parks
and the emi-pubc buildings in Washington and
elsewhere. BY this partial list enc may grasp the
extent of the ramifications of the work Of this
commission.
Too often in the past have buildings and monu-
ments been erected in hurry, with little or re-
appropriateness Of its setting. lack of beauty
in this regard has been only too noticeable.
The work of the national commission of fine arts
has had little recognition Few have realized the
beneficial influence it has been bringing to our ma
tional and other public structures Future genera
lions, however, making the comparison will give full
credit TO this commission fer their work of beautif-
cation.

No Hard Feelings, Queen
minneapolis Journal

Queen Marie has booked passage home to Ru-
mania We trust she feels that she has had pleas
ant visit. AT any rate her royal breeding doubtless
| will mpc her u say she feels that way, whatever
the fact may be.
Queen Marie rode out to- the Pacific coast and
back on special train whose meanderings long
will be remembered. No excursion since the voy-
age Of the Ford peace ship has produced SO much
snappy news. Ford's problem was to get the boys
out Of the trenches by Christmas, whereas Marie's
was to get the boys-and the gals, too-out of the
train before there any nose-punching face
slapping or hair-pung.
Usually, when a royal pilgrimage is in progress,
the commoners problem is to get on the train at
all. Getting on Her Rumanan Majesty's train has
MT been much of task But staying on has been
real accomplishment, something achieved by very
few army officers and automobile agents
The ludcrous, though regrettable happenings
that punctuated the royal tour doubtless have dim
med somewhat. in the public mind, that aura of
dignity that glorfied Queen Marie upon her arrival
in America.
Which is hardly fair to the queen Was Marie
to blame for any of it? We do not think So
We're the newspapers to blame for keeping the
public supplied with full information as to the
comic-opera chickering's and the regular daily put
tings-off? We do not think So
Then who, or what, to blame? Simply that
unsuitable desire for personal publicity with which
great many Americans have become afflicted with
IN the last seven or eight years. There was not
enough limelight to 60 around. Hence there was
much scrapping distribution of the reduced ra-
tlons There was net room enough on the train
Tor everybody to show off at once. So quite few,
from time to time, had to detrain at the water tank
stops.
Queen Marie is going home We trust that she
overlooks few little things that have happened,
and that the American public does not blame it's
royal guest for said happenings. We trust, also.
that the Americans who attended Marie on her jour
ney beyond the Rockies do not insist on going aboard
snip and esoorting her back to Europe Otherwise,
y may become necessary TO stop the vessel in mid
