PAGE EIGHT Rod and Gun Club Doings— The Ramrods basketball team took Bay City Market into camp last week to the tune of 44 to 22. This explains the grin that Whi te’ Mattson has been wearing lately. The first home game for th* Ramrods will be tonight, Jan. 20. at the high school gym, when they will face Smith River. So many are expecting our local lioys to take the league championship that a big turn- out of spectators is anticipated for this first of their home con- tests. At the last regular meeting of Chetco Rod and Gun club there were nine committees appointed. Many of these are already func- licning and arc getting the new program off to a flying start. A separate list of these committees will be mailed to each member so that complete co-ordination may result; for it is only with such team-work that accomplish ment may be achieved for such a program as has been set up For Sale: ’28 Model A Ford in ood condition; also potatoes, 2c <o 3c a pound.

Hershel Obye, supervisor of the Siskiyou National Forest, with headquarters at Grants Pass, was principal speaker Tuesday noon at the Rotary club, telling of the importance of "Conservation." Prefacing his remarks, Mr. Obye reminded Rotarians that all westerners had long revolted at the idea that conservation was at all necessary'. "However, the in flux of new settlers in the west, sufficient to say that a population shift is definitely in this direction makes us see the need of con servation." Where the west once saw only- scattered population, with plenty of land for each person and fam ily, there was no need for any type of conservation. However, especially since the war, the en tire* west has seen a definite pop ulation gain, and the old belief must change too. Mr. Oby-e pointed out the im portance of the so-called water sheds, and the control of mois ture. Denuded land gives rise to quick run-offs of water, and with this run-off the depletion of the topsoil, which is vital in the well being of the world today. Fish and game conservation is another result of the wanton de- truction of our forefathers, who looked upon the supply of all re- ources as inexhaustible. In the past game has been slaughtered j fish stocks so depleted that w-e now must put stringent limits on sportsmen, and yet the outlook coos not appear bright. Now, after the point ef food /applies are almost diminished beyond repair, we attempt to re stock game, and the streams wit^h 9sh. This problem is growing by the hour, the speaker pointed out and described the forest scO* ice’s attempt to aid the situatici. In closing his talk. Mr. Obye explained the forest service’s idea of "sustained yield’’ in the Na tional Forests. It is the plan of the department to keep the tim ber industry going forever, by regulation of the disposal and the replanting. Who Has No. 7?
