Horoscope ''The stars incline
 but do not compel"
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10. 1897

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1937
 Benefic aspects rule strongly to- day, according to astrology From morning until evening the best planetary influences are active.
 In the early hours rulers and leaders of their fellow men are well directed. The sway inclines to- wards acknowledgement of author ity and cooperation with those in power.
 Under this rule of the stars new projects should be launched and improvements in old enterprises should be started. Practical ideas should dominate.
 While there is a kindly sign for engineers and builders, for master mechanics and all engaged in con struction, this is primarily a date on which executives of all degrees of power should benefit.
 This is a time to listen to elders and to heed the voice of experience. but reliance may be placed on indi- vidual judgment. The young should have clear vision concerning future events.
 Danger of revolution in which the oppressed rise against their rul- CTS is forecast as likely to bring about worldwide upheavals.
 Peace movements will enlist Americans of every class through coming months, but astrologers prognosticate the importance of thorough preparedness of army, navy and flying forces
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of opportuni- ties that promise good fortune. For business men sharp and successful competition is indicated.
 Children born on this day may be exceedingly fortunate all through life Subjects of this sign of Virgo usually are logical methodical, in- genious and enel getic.
 Joseph Wheeler, soldier and Con gressman was born on this day 1886. Others who have celebrated it as a birthday include Poultney Bigelow, author, 1855; Mungo Park early explorer, 1771.

INTELLIGENT CONSERVATION

Reorganization of the departments of Federal government with the object of creating at least one new department to be known as the Department of Conservation has caused considerable controversy and it is probable that will up for further dis cussion and perhaps action at the next session O. Congress
 One of the major arguments in favor of such a proposal is the interpretation of conservation as a wise and judcious of our natural resources rather than throwing barrier around them has been done too often in the past that be made of them An interesting commentary the conser- vaton proposal found the recent address of Sec retary of Interior Harold L. Ickes
 The Secretary in discussing the subject had this to say:
 It seems to me so obvious as not to require argument that conservation will be greatly ad- vanced if it is made major responsibility of great Department of the national govern ment. Since proposed to the Congress over two years ago that the name of the Depart ment of the Interior be changed to that of Department of Conservation, I found to my surprise that our natural resources are divided into organic and inorganic, or non-renewable and renewable resources The inorganic are said by the critics of this proposed change to be for the most part minerals subsurface resources The organic group on the other hand they say, comprise those that grow from the soil, meaning agriculture.
 The opponents of the transfer of the forest reserves to the proposed Department of Con- servation--and have no notion whether the President would make this transfer or not advance this pseudo-scientifc batter to fuse us They have evidently taken their from the Book of Genesis They go back to the Creation for the orderly functioning of government. They would have us believe that when the earth brought forth the living crea- ture after his kind, cattle and creeping things the fowls of the air, the herb-yieding seed the fruit tree yielding fruit and so on, des- cribed by the author of the first book of the Bible they were assigned organic sources to the Department of Agriculture This may be true but the Photographer who hit upon the happy phrase organic and in- organic resources has forgotten the whale and the other denzens of the deep which ap- parently were created on the third day for the Department of Commerce. They grudg- ingly admit, however, that the minerals locked in the bowels of the earth may have been
