10000, 900 ACRES LEFT.
Forest Area That Has Survived 800
Years of LAUNDERING.


After 800 years of numbering and Of
forest removal to make way for agri-
culture We still have 30.000.o0 acres of
virgin forest left. according to Wilson
Compton. secretary-manager Of the Ma
tional Lumber Manufacturers Associa-
tion.
This is enough at our present rate of
consumption TO supply our needs for
perhaps two generations: but the lum-
ber industry Is looking beyond that
period. to the time when 1t must de-
pend for its raw material entirely upon
manipulated forests. Already a num-
ber OF its leaders have started growing
new crops of timber on their cut-over
lands. Their experimental laboratory
comprises more than 100000 acres
of forest land.

happened that it was on the very day that Spite the Marten tried to catch Chatterer the Red Squirrel. You will remember how Chatterer was struck down in inid-air by Terror. Chatterer hadn't been watching for any such enemy as that. ~
 Of course Terror was greatly dis appointed at not catching Chatterer. For a few moments he quarrelled with Spite the Marten. Then he took to his wings. Up above the trees he flew. Up. up he went and finally headed straight into the north. Terror was leaving the Green Forest. He wanted to get away from the place where he had been g. prisoner. Only Blackey the Crow saw him go. But that was enough. Soon all the Green Forest knew that Terror had escaped from prison and also that he had left the Green Forest.

tention of questioning Dicky con. corning the man at her first oppor- tunity and wondered whether or not she would pass on to me the inform alton she received from Dicky-tf indeed he told her anything of value. But the major portion of my thoughts was not given to conjec- lures concerning others. I had enough gloomy thoughts of my own to supply a dozen people. The sight of Edith Fairfax's photograph with the intimate familiar message writ ten across it, which I had caught when 1t had fallen unobserved from Dicky's pocket had shaken me to g. degree as surprising as it was tor. turing.
 In the awful time following Grace Draper's suicide and Dicky's hor- rible doubt of me, which had wounded me beyond my power to pardon him, I had given no thought to Edith Fairfax. whose hopeless love for Dicky never had been da-' nied by her. That she was in North Carolina with her old and delightful grcat-s.n:, Miss Dora Paige, I knew. and had guessed that Dicky had ar- ranged her vacation from the mag azine in whose management they were partners. hocauso he wished no corp,icati3n in the problem ot our future which confronted us.
 But this message brought to my mind a sudden conviction :hat Edith Fairfax was playing a waiting game. and that if D:cky enl crrae to the final parting of the ways, as had seemed most likely when she left for the South. she would be at hand with her beauty, CT attractive personality, her business comrade- ship and her great love to fill the place which I left vacant.
 With all tho will power possess ed I braced myself to so through my coming interview with Dieky upon the subject of teaching Eleanor Lin- coin without betraying my knowl- edge of tho photograph or my reac- ton to it. But I was digging my nails deep into my palms when after dinner Dicky seized . moment when We were standing apart from the rest and said curtly:

Your Health How To Keep It. Causes of Illness
BY DIR, NORRIS FISHBEIN Exlitoe Journal Of the American Medical Association ard Of Hy-
 1eia inc HeAlfh Ma0azfne

geia, the Health Magazine
 Some years ago various firms throughout the United States en- deavored to exploit devices for the manufacture of ozone.
 It was claimed that these devices could be placed in theaters, halls, or in other places where the ven- tilation was likely to be poor and by the supplying of ozone Q suffi- cient amount of oxygen could be produced in the air. It is now known that the difficulty under such circumstances is not with the oxygen but in most instances with the movement of the air. the hu- midity, and similar physical fac tors.
 One of the most serious of mod crn ventilation problems is the control of poisonous carbon mon- oxide gas in garages. Again the ozone salesman has come to the front and many commercial ga- rages and service stations have put in the ozone machines in the belief that the oxygen given off will convert the deadly carbon monoxide gas into the compara- lively safe carbon dioxide.
 MT. c. w. Sails. technical engi- neer of the New York State De- partment of Industrial Hygiene, has just made available the results of an investigation of the practi- cability of such devices for the purpose for which they are sold.
 He finds that the ozone genera tors do not convert the carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide at a rate that Is fast enough or in Il proportion that is complete enough to be of any practical use.
 It is far better and more effec- tive simply to open few windows and to permit the removal of car- bon monoxide by the process of natural diffusion. If there is not proper diffusion, 1t may be neces- sary to install mechanical venti- lation.

BEAUTY
 How and Why
By Ann Alysh


 For all that k said about the vide open. large eye being the most attractive, if we give . moments thought to tho matter VIC win sec th4t while 1t may bo beautiful in itself. yet it l. when the eye ts in agreement with the other features that we have true beauty.
 Proportion here. e everywhere slss. is tho deciding factor. This was brought forcibly to my mind recently by observing . pair of largo and appealing eyes set in a face that was otherwise coarse and heavy. % that my outstand- ing impression was one of intense disappointment
 Think of some of your acquaint- ances for . moment. of their eyes in particular. Now. If Eleanor's rather small, but undeniably viva- cious and humorous eyes could bs exchanged for a large round pair, would friend Eleanor's beauty be enhanced? Or would 1t be swamp cd by the new pair?
 Tho deep-set, twinkling eye has as much charm as any other type. And s not an eye with little slant . la Japanese, an attractive thing? Of course too small an eye or too large a one or one that protrudes unduly is not 50 good. Nothing whatever can be done to alter the original shape of this feature. but in . later article we will consider what cosmetics will do to deepen the shadows and lines around 1t 70 as to simulate 8 change in sixe and shape.

 Terror the Goshawk

Perhaps you will remember that Terror tho Goshawk was caught by Farmer Browns Boy, who set a trap for him on top of the telephone pols. Farmer Browns Boy had done this because Terror had been catch- iag hts chickens. Having caught Terror without injury, Farmer brown's Boy decided to keep him . yriaoner. And fs it came abou. thst Tesvrr the Goshawk, whom all 4ks iittle people of the Green Forest and the Green Meadows feared Sssatiy. became a prisoner in . case in Farmer Browns dooryaro.
 T hate to do 1t, old fellow" said Farmer Browns Boy. but just can't afford to have you stealing my chickens. So I am going to keep you . prisoner here until it is time for you to % back north"
 So Terror was prisoner. but he was . very we'll treated prisoner. Farmer Browns Boy did everything ts make him comfortable. He saw that Terror was we'll fed. There was 2 bex shelter for him in bad wealth. cr and he really had nothing to complain of. excepting his lack of freedom. But nothing ever can. or svse wsn. mako up for that. This is especially true with one who has had the freedom of the skies, as lad Terror. So always there was a look of longing fin those fierce eyes of Terror's. He pined for the Green Forest.
 But If he pined, the other little people rejoiced that he was prisoner. The Green Forest was . .afer place for them with Terror out of the way. TEeir one fear was that come day he might escape and return. That was their fear, but 1t was 3error's hope. Never did he let ilops wholly die. Always he was on watch. If chance to escape should come. he would be ready for i,.
 At first while he was a prisoner !.e was visited every day by little people from the Old Orchard and the Green Forest. They didn't come to ask after his health and tell him they were sorry he was a prisoner. Goodness no! Taey came to mock and make fun of him and to tel him how glad they were that he was where he could no longer do Any harm. But after a while they rev tired Of this and there came . time when Terror had no visitors at all. Tn fact he had been quite for gotten.
 Then one day as Farmer Browns Boy was putting food and water in hk cage Mother Brown called 10 him from the house. He shut the door to the cage in hurry. He thought he hooked 1t. But he didn't hook it. That Is, the hook didn't catch. Then he hurried up to the ho1se aud gave no further thought to Terror.
 Now Terror couldn't see that that door wasn't locxed, and it was some time after Farmer Browns Boy had left that Terror discovered that there was little ray of light around the edsc Of that door. He poked 1t. The door swung ever 60 little. He pushed. The door swung half open. Tcrror's heart gave q great leap of joy. Boldly ho pushed his way out. He was free. You may be sure that he wasted no time He spread Those big wings Of his and lway he flew. straight to the Green Nc:c=.. No onc ever saw him. II
