pointed M. James Anderson, 1915

noon as clerk and deputy coroner.

STATE ADVANCES PLANS
FOR NEW FOREST UNIT
Land in Jackson, Washington and
Scott Counties Involved.

Scott Counties Involved.
Creation of a new forestry divi-
sion in jackson, Washington and
and Scott counties is being pushed
by the state conservation depart
ment in the hope of making it one
OF several districts for protection of
southern woodlands.
According to Ralph F. Wilcox.
state forester, the new district is
being organized on plans similar to
one recently established in Brown
county, known as the Brown County
Forest Fire Protective Association.
The association consists of resident
and nonresident land owners.
Nonresident land owners paw
minimum fee Of 81 to join the as
ISOLATION. Money thus obtained is
used in purchase of fire-f1ghting
equipment. Resident owners do not
pay, but agree to answer calls to
fight fires. The forestry division
erects fire towers and supplies a
Waterman during dry periods.
The last report of the United
States department of agriculture
showed there were 10000 acres of
land in jackson. Washington and
Scott counties classified as idle or
fallow woodland pasture and wood
land not used for pasture.
Indiana now has three state for
ests. The Oldest is in Clarke coun-
ty, consisting of 5,400 acres. The
Morgan-Monroe forest, acquired
within the last two years, is the
largest. with $500 acres. Recent
acquisition of 800 acres in Jackson
county brings the state forest land
to an acreage Of 1920.

RIPLEY SAILS AGAIN
TO FOREIGN PORTS
He's Happy

By United Press
MONTREAL, July 17.-E. J.
Kennedy, the Jamaica Negro
who won something like $780,
600 in one of the English Derby
sweepstakes, had two ambi-
tions before he became
wealthy, and he realized both
of them today.
Kennedy wanted to have his
own private music-box, one
with a crank, and he wanted
to sail back to the West Indies
to join his wife.
Today he walked up the
gangplank of the Canadian
National Steamship liner, Lady
Rodney, a few minutes before
it sailed for Jamaica. Under
his arm he carried an elegant
music-box, and as he stepped
gingerly up the gangplank,
Kennedy whirled the crank.
The tune the box emitted
was: II Wonder Where My
Baby Is Tonight"
