Fuel Value of a Cord of Wood

ruel taiuc Cf COru Ol WO0u Experiments conducted by the forestry department of Michi- gan college revealed that a cord of dry wood (which no doubt was hard wood) contains heat values equal to a ton Of anthra- cite coal.
 Further tests showed that green wood lasted longer, but the dry gave off more heat. Also that the wood from the trunks of trees contained more heat units than the limbs of trees. Best results were obtain ed in a furnace by leaving a bed of ashes and coals on the grates. and burning the wood bh top.
 Our wood that we are selling at the present time is right from the stump but it burns well, for the timber we are cut ting is a high land growth, and is more or less dry. Whereas other wood that is being sold in town is cut off the swamps, which is very likely to cause 1t to be sour and wet. We are not trying to knock the other fei-. lows wood, but boosting our own by telling you the facts, which gives you a chance to be your own judge in choice of wood. % Y
 We have one hundred and fourteen customers and our list is growing daily. Besides, re- filled orders. A cord of wood contains a hundred and twenty eight cubic feet. We give two hundred cubic feet of loose wood, which we guarantee to be a full cord, which to our know ledge has never been done be- fore,
 We have nine men on our payroll, making a living for themselves and families, by cut ting and selling wood. Every dollar that you will spend for wood, will stay here in town where it belongs. Please stop and think, how many dollars that are spent for other fuels, which go out of the country and never return. You are not only helping the town in buying wood, but you can save from one-third to one-half on your ftiels cost. Mir. Hans Hope re- ports that he saved $lO.75 in the month of January by burn ing two cords of wood and five sacks of coal. Mir. Rovocich used mostly wood and saved fifty per cent on his December account.
 We are arranging to have sev- eral hundred cords of wood cut. that it may dry, then we, can give the very best value to our customers. And they deserve it, for they are backing up a home industry, and they should. because we are not only All American" But All-Alaskarle

The personalities that we have are largely the result of our child hood experiences.
 Whether we are witty, poetic, dreamy, persistent, matter-of-fact, dominating. easy-going, easily led, nervous of steady is largely de- termined in the early years of our lives.
 These traits usually were thought to be inherited from our fathers and mothers, but they are more truly the result of the association with them and also with our play mates and other children asso- 'ciates. s,i 1 ssg aia A'st
 Hence the importance of early training and education, for the kind and quality of people we shall have in the next generation in our nation depend on what we do with the children Of today. it
 Dangers to be watched
 The life of the modern child is different from what it was in carly times in two respects. He grows up in cities and usually in a small family often without any brothers Of sisters. ast l1 " These are dangers, for the man her of city life is often not good for temperament of children and and frequently too restricted asso- ciation with affectiorlal adults or the neglect of absent parents is not a healthy influence.
 But the city and the modern family may be made just as good an Influence bn child life as it is now frequently a bad influence. The realization of the dangers of childhood is in a sense a prom ise.
 The first big problem in this connection is the education of par ents. They are hard to reach for families are scattered, but adult

Problem Parents, Too

Problem Parents, Too
 Our high schools and junior col leges should Of course educate for parenthood with special courses in those subjects. It is the problem parent that makes the problem child.
 The schools should cern themselves more with the person. alities of children, which means their group activities as well as their books. The modern progress sive tendencies in education should be widely diffused throughout the public schools.
 The pre-school child in many families needs also the influences of modern progressive education. In many homes children should go to school at earlier ages.
 Good houses are an important influence. It is now almost im- possible to bring up a child satis- factorily in most city apartments. but with social planning, city apart ments, could be made almost ideal.
 Another need is scientific re- search. We know that our early environment makes us what we are, within broad limits. We know that any child can be made into poet or scientist, but do not yet know the particular pro- gram.
 It would be wonderful to have a world without problem children, to have our society peopled by well adjusted adults capable of successful mating who cannot be- come neurotic. without narcissism and free from morbid fears.
 But first we need more research and then we need it widely diff fused throughout our schools and our homes.

him.
The next day he saw them on

He outworks his secretaries and

may be evening, is done, he's
chauffeured home to the Gov

Il with big caves is a real home
with a real wife to meet him.
She never talks shop to him.
Hes fed up with talking to
people about the state. 1 try to
make home a haven for him."
Mrs. McNutt says, with gracious
simplicity.
He likes lis meals on time, like
other men-and eats heartyily,
and everything that's set before
him.
Hes not a bit domestic. He
couldn't cook! I've been having
the garden made over and 1 took
him out to see it and he just
walked through it and I don't be-
lieve he saw thing.
Il don't bother him with the
house." continued the woman,
mother, wife to a governor, as her
misty face, face with character
wells, drifted about the room.
I'm the chatterboX," she smiled
her serenity, hes the quiet one.
Yes, it's true few people, none that
1 know, ever get past certain
friendship with him-never any
closer.
ITO I take him shopping with
- me? Mercy! No! he never
liked that. Most men dont-do
they? If he sees a new dress,
he's quietly appreciative of it while
I have it on" she said.

tician who knows him.
There's no steering a course
between two streams with Gov
ernor McNutt. He's either liked
or hated. No middle ground"
estimated another man.
One pet saying attributed to
the Governor is:

plants, be sure you've got the
right-sized gun"
And Mayr got a load of the
caliber of shells he uses" added
the commentator.
From the last drum mote of the

legislative and administrative
actions of Governor McNutt.
And just last week he saw his
efforts to reopen the Fletcher
American National bank, closed by
the Roosevelt holiday, near sue
cess in Indianapolis.
But with it he saw attacks were
made daily in courts and news
papers against the charge of
monopoly in the handling of 80

The tide for draught beer grows.
Down with the bottle, up with

GENEVA TO Get
u. S. TERMS ON
PEACE TREATY
Conditions for Joining in
Pact Sent to Envoy
Davis in Europe.
BY STEWART BROWN
United Press stan Correspondent

GENEVA. May 20-The long
awaited definition Of how far Amer
lea will go in a consultative pact to
guarantee the peace of Europe will
be delivered 10 the general commits
sion of the disarmament conference
Monday, the United Press learned
authoritatively today.
United States Ambassador Nor
man H. Davis received an eight
page cable from the state depart
ment in Washington, setting forth
in detail the type Of treaty the
United States would be willing to
sign.
American willingness to enter
such pact, however, is predicated
entirely upon thorough disarma-
ment by the European powers.
Davis, it was understood, will urge
the Europeans Monday to reduce
their military establishments.
stressing necessity for rigid inter-
national control of ornaments after
a non-aggreSsion, consultative
treaty is signed.
Asks U. S. Leadership
The statement of definition will
be issued simultaneously in Wash
tngton and Geneva when Davis be-
gins speaking, the United Press
learned.
When the general commission OF
the disarmament conference met
today, Giuseppe Mota, head of the
Swiss delegation, demanded that the
United States define its position on
security, to save the conference.
Looking at United States Delegate
Hugh Wilson, he exclaimed:
Let the United States pronounce
the liberating words"
He said 1t would be more difficult
TO reach an agreement on either re-
duction of armies or of war weapons
until I'VE find out how far the
United States will participate in
consultative pact in the event of
aggression"
Must Define Aggression
He declared that before reduc-
lions of man power and armament
could be discussed, the conference
would have to define what was
meant by aggression and draw up a
list Of measures that could be ia
ken against an aggressor by nations
entering into the treaty.
When Mota finished, the commits
sion heard the delegates of Holland,
Finland Norway, Denmark, Bel
GUM and Lithuania demand sub
Stantial disarmament. The COM
mission then adjourned until Mon
day.
