Lesson In Con-
servatiOn From
The Enemy
We Can Learn From
Those We Have
Defeated

Bitter as it may be to hint that the
Germans had any element of super
iority over the United States, in some
respects they have been way ahead
of us. We refer to the efficient man.
ner in which they used their natural
resources in the war. The evidence
keeps piling up-in the cold record
of accomplishments, in the remarks
of officers and men returned from
Europe and in letters from men still
overseas.
How could relatively small ma
ton, bottled in the heart of a CONT
nent that has been supporting
huddled millions for centuries, have
accumulated and built the materials
and supplies necessary to carry on
for nearly six years the most costly
war of all times? True they robbed
all the other countries of Europe,
but those, too, were old and crowded
with humanity. The answer is that
they conserved and utilized Efficient
available to them.
You don't see polluted waters in
Germany-or you didn't until Ameri-
can bombs spattered their sewage
plants and disposal systems. You
don't see barren forest lands Never
is tree chopped down but seed or
sapling goes into the ground to take
its place. You don't see quilted and
eroded farmlands. They plow on the
contour and use other protective
methods.
An army officer who had been in
Europe several years before and dur
ing the war was commenting on the
muddy old Potomac, roughly guess
ing that about ton of topsoil was
going down the turpid old river with
every acre-foot of water. He stated
that in all his years abroad he had
never seen muddy waters in the
Rhine, Moselle, Meal nor Seine. High
yes. Out of their banks at times, but
clear
There is only one section of the
United States where similar cOndi-
ton still prevails. That's in the coast
al plain stretching from North Caro-
lima to the Texas "Big Thicket"
country. Even there flood waters re-
main clear only when the streams
they feed rise in the low pinelands
themselves and do not bring down
silt from the eroded piedmont
No. We, the victors can learn from
the vanquished. We would be insane,
indeed, if we did not copy their in
telligent recognition of the necessity
for cleansed waters, for fully protect
ed and wisely utilized farms and
forests.

81. OOO--Lost And Found

Mrs. Myrtle E. Herdenbrook, OF
Oceanside, California, considers her
self both the luckiest and unluckies,
of women. While passing through
Oxford last Tuesday, she left hel
purse, containing one thousand and
forty dollars in the rest room OF
Passmore's Supply Company's filling
station. 1t was not until she had gone
many miles that she missed her val
uables and, though she at once call
ed Oxford, no trace of the missing
pocketbook or the money could be
found. A short time later, however
word came from Reading, Pennsyl-
vania, that the purse and its contents
were in the hands of the State Police
at Reading, Pa, having been turneo
over to them by Miss Dorothy Hen
nv, who had stopped at the Passmore
Station, picked up tie purse, think
ing it belonged to her sister who was
travelling with her, and thrown II
into the automobile. When they
reached Reading and discovered the
purse was not theirs, they imme-
diately turned it over to the State
Police and they in turn at once notl-
fed Oxford. Naturally Mrs. Herden-
brook was overjoyed at learning the
whereabouts of her money and went
to Reading to get it Wednesday
morning. The money was in the form
of a government check for one thou
sand dollars, which had come to her
from the Government when her hus-
band had been killed in battle, and a
little over forty dollars in change.
