An outstanding figure in American life passed
out of the picture when Gen. Leonard Wood died
at hospital in Boston a few days ago. AS mem
Der of Uncle Sans military force he had filled many
posts requiring exceptional tact and ability with
credit to himself and honor to his country Shortly
after the election of President Harding he was as
signed to the position of Governor General of the
PHILIPPINE Islands, 1t required strong man to
bring order out of the chaotic condition in the

United States, and the request OF
Mr.. Backus is regarded in conserva-
ton circles as the most astonishing
proposal to completely dominate a
major recreational area that has
been attempted within the past fifty
years.
This effort is comparable only to
the old, rough-shod way of whole
sale domination of natural resources
~ private individuals, which went
out of fashion half a century ago,
ne declared. The people of Mime
sofa can perhaps visualize the size Oh
the project when the following facts
are considered. One entire river,
lying in Canada, containing several
beautiful falls would be dried up
by shutting off the water by a d.
version dam at its outlet from Lac
La Croix. The entire Boulder river,
in Minnesota, a beautiful stream
would be obliterated by high water.
Loon lake, one of the most attract
i've on the boundary, would be en-
tirely submerged under the back
water. Agnes lake, famous moose
center, would be at least partly
wiped out. of the eight hundred
islands in Lac La Croix, only a
few of the largest would be visible.
The rest would be submerged. The
same holds good for hundreds OF
islands in various lakes between
Rainy Lake and Saganaga Lake, at
the west and east extremities of the
contemplated flooding.
Every one of the beautiful water
falls along the boundary would be
wiped out or converted into a con-
crete dam.
The flooded ones would present
a scene of desolation for man years.
State Forester Comet says several
hundred.
The area along the boundary, now
the backbone of the entire Superior
Forest region from the viewpoint
of scenery and tourist activities
would be changed from a network
of a great many beautiful lakes,
containing countless rock islands,
peninsulas, bays, connected by mar
row channels and by waterfalls,
bordered by pine forests, to three
or four very large bodies of over
flow flood waters lying between
dams.
1t was pointed out by Mr.. Hough
that the backwater from these dams
would flood the entire boundary for
a distance of about two hundred
miles, extending to a distance of
from one to two miles on either
side beyond the present shore lines,
and would divide the lower portions
of the Superior National Forest
from the Quetico Park, in Ontario,
all of which has constituted a dis
tinct national playground of unique
character, destined to become, I'M
der development, one of the major
recreational areas of the continent
because of its central location.
According to Mr.. Doellner, the
Walton League, which took an &C
tive part at the International Falls
hearing in protesting against the
proposal, will back the Minnesota
Division of the League to any
lengths in its campaign to preserve
lie Superior Forest region as a
national recreational area.

Original "Know Nothings"

Agnosticism Is doctrine which
teaches that we can have no knowl-
edge except that acquired through
the senses which may be called ex-
perience, and that we can know moth
ing of spiritual matters; that In fact,
I'VE know nothing Of what may be
beyond phenomena" Agnosticism,
therefore, leaves no room for the e1-
ercise of Christian faith.

"Miniatures"

1t is usually thought that the deri-

Latin minimum (smallest), but this is
not so. There is a verb inmate, to
paint with vermilion, from the Latin
miniare minimum, native cinnabar, red
lead). The true sense of miniature Is
something painted in minimum, red lead.
Such paintings were usually small,
hence the later meaning. The name
was first applied to the ornamental
red initial capitals in manuscripts.
