Annual SuwmiII Survey
Underway BY Census

Lumber shortages which have ex
listed since the latter part of the wal
make the results of the annual saw
mill survey of the U. S. Bureau oil
the Census of prime Importance, &C
cording to District Supervisor Mrs
Sally B. McNair with offices al
Clarksdale.
Census enumerators under Super
visor McNair's direction have start
en- canvassing sawmills in this area
to gather reports of the current saw
mill survey which this year is being
taken as part of the 1947 Census of
Manufacturers. The major part of the
manufacturers census will be car
ried out by mail but all sawmills
will be visited by Genus Bureau field
people since it is almost impossible
to build up accurate mailing lists for
this industry by reason of its mo-
bility and the ut-of-the-way loca-
tions of many sawmills.
Figures developed from the saw
mill survey will include data on
lumber production, value Of ship
ments, number of sawmills, employ
ment, wages, cost of materials, and
related items. The lumber produc-
ton information by species will be
available by counties. making it es-
pecially useful for analyzing local
conditions.
Supervisor McNair referred to a
recent statement by Census Director
Capt which pointed out in the Cen
sus of Manufactures It mandatory.
He emphasized that the same law
which requires reporting also re-
quires that all individual reports and
figures submitted to the Census
Bureau be held in strict confidence.
Information reported to it cannot be
used for purposes of regulation, in.
or taxation because the
Census Bureau, under the law, cam
not reveal individual figures or other
to any person other than
sworn employees of the Census Bur-
eau.

IN MEMORIAM
Mrs. James F. Wilburn
Pickens. Mississippi

God in His infinite wisdom called
from our midst one of our most be-
loved women, Mrs. James F. Will
burn, Of Pickens, Mississippi, who
passed away on February 25th, l948.
We wish to pay tribute of love,
respect and appreciation to her
whose memory we shall always cher
ish. Her passing brought profound
grief to her family, her friends, the
people of the church and all who
came in contact with her Christian
Influence.
she served the Woman's Society OF
the North Mississippi Conference
from 1882 to 1912 most faithfully as
Superintendent of Literature and
Publicity, also published the Confer
ence Bulletin quarterly during these
years. Her gracious personality and
devoted conservation made her an
inspiring leader.
Mrs. Wilburn was endowed by
nature with a strong mind, ready
wit and loveable disposition. All
these she early consecrated to the
Masters use, so that she became one
OF the outstanding Christian Work.
ers of the Conference. No record ia
words can express the deep love and
esteem in which she was held by all
women of the Conference.
In looking over copy or two OF
the Conference Minutes we CLEAN
lust few sentences from her re-
ports which we want to share: Each
report is read with keeneSt interest,
we have cause for courage. May we
labor on-Spend and be spent-Joy
to do the Fathers Wilt is the way
the Master tread-Should not the
servant tread it still?"
| Does it not seem true that the de-
partment of literature and publicity
is vitality connected with the great
program of building the Kingdom OF
God on earth?" Again she wrote:
GO We into all the world and preach
the gospel to all creation. II there
were no other reason for missionary
activity this command would be sui
ficient for those who love God"
These excerpts from her reports
give us keen insight into her de
votion for her Lord and for the cause
for which she gave so freely OF he'
strength, time and talent.

Forest Faces Test
Appeal Made By
Forest Green Committee
Public Asked To
Cooperate And
Keep Fires Down

The towering mountains of smoke
normally seen in Mississippi during
March and April are sure to be re
produced in many sections again this
year, states S. E. Moreton, Jr.
chairman of the Keep MississipprS
Forest Green Program. These fires
occurring during the springtime
when nature is striving to repro
duce all plant life and make our en-
tire landscape beautiful can be
charged almost entirely to human
carelessness Or lack of knowledge
or appreciation of natures kindness
to mankind.
Damage from forest fires in this
state are estimated to cost the peo-
pie some eight or ten millions an
nually and destroy some fifty per
cent of the potential tree crop of
tomorrow. U. S. Forest Service re-
appraisal shows that we are now de-
pleting our forest considerably faster
than in previous years. This means
that we are now going to be forced
to curtail our output of forest pro-
ducts or grow more wood to offset
this cycle of depletion.
To keep Mississippis Forest Green
and productive is the job of every
citizen of the state. School children
have been organized into Forest
Ranger and Forest Guardian Clubs,
Newspapers and radio stations have
given graciously of their time and
space and many individuals and
groups have sponsored programs to
inform the public of the many bene-
fits to be derived.
Here is a real challenge % the
people of Mississippi; the farmer,
the Woodsman, the sportsman and
Just the everyday average individual.
The pine trees produced a magnlfl-
cent crop of seed last fall, the win
ter rains has prepared these seed for
a billion dollar crop in the years just !
ahead, if you the custodians of these
baby trees will only protect them
from a tragic and certain death by |
Forest Fires.
The Mississippi Forestry and Che ,
murgic Association, sponsors OF the
State Tree Farm System, has for
years advocated protecting our for
est from fire and using common SEN
sc ways of harvesting timber and
has pointed the way of growing more
wood means more jobs, more stabi-
lized industries to support commnul-
ties. counties, towns and the entire
state.

Court Orders Defendant
To Buy Herself Fur Coat
By the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, June 23-A judge
has sentenced Mrs. Alta Bouldin,
49-year-old hotel clerk, to buy her
self a fur coat.
Mrs. Bouldin had pleaded guilty
to a charge of receiving stolen furs
worth $500. So Judge Walter S.
Gates at her hearing yesterday fined
her $500 and placed her on proba-
tion for three years.
That wasn't unusual. But then
Judge Gates said:
Il want you to learn the lesson
that one should not try to possess
things beyond their means"
He then ordered Mrs. Bouldin to
pay $25 a month into court fund.
He said that when $500 has ac-
cumulated she will be accompanied
to a store by a court representative
and allowed to buy a coat of her
own choice.
