OREGON IN DAKGFR OF WG AIRPLANE )L FOR FORESTS Thew la a possibility that the for- - est air patrol that was so well start ed last summer may be discontinued, according to N. F. MeDutf, supervis or of the Cascade national forest, and he has suggested that the Eugene chamber of commerce take the mat ter up with Oregon's representatives in congress to do all in their power to secure an appropriation to con tinue the patrol. . - ' "The Vntinuation of. the paJirol means much to Kugend," said Mr JKcDuff yesterday, "it already has (been a great advertisement for this city and It would be a matter of re gret if It were discontinued." Mr. McDuff calls attention to an .editorial In last Issue of the Montana Forest School News, a portion tof which follows: . "Congress is not making the neces sary appropriations for the work. This time it is not so much the forest service alone which Is concerned With the failure of conrgess to appro priate funds. Everyone who owns tim : bar, or who depends uDon th. nm. ducUon of wood or the use of wood, or whose welfare is related to forest protection and forest uses and forest influences and whose welfare is not should feel concerned. Fires Great Monaco "Forest protection In the wento forests has failed. Although damages have been reduced and although for ; every aonar spent hundreds of dol lars have been saved in forest value, yet forest fires have in 10 years de stroyed more timber on the national forests than has been cut and prob , ab!y as much has been burned as has -grown in that time. I "We know that on the basis' of the s. detection and communication meth ods mads possible by airplane patrol 'an adequate system of fire protection Tcan be built. Airplane ' patrol will - make fire protection efficient. "It Is said, too, that this nation is -; rapidly losing,: or even throwing 1 away, all that It gained In the use of ' airplanes for military preparedness. Nobody wants war again we don't 4 like even to think about it. We shall have least need for thought and wor- ry and care about it if we are prepar ". ed for the worst that may come. Oonrgesamea Willing "Four representatives and senators f In congress like to work for legisla , tioa which you want They hate like the dickens to have to work their ' heads off for a good cause and then come home to explain what it was all about and to try to drum up a little ' pra.se for worthy action done. ' "Write to them today. Tell them ; how much forest protection means to I yoor region'. Tell them we are using one fiftieth part of the nation's mer s chantable saw timber each year. That ' fire damage, wasteful forest use and ' other devastations and depredations largely offset ' what we should get from forest growth each year. Tell 'them a protective system built upon ... the basis of aeroplane fire patrol will be the most efficient means known of preventing forest destruction. Tell them here is a means of- helping to keep up our nation's military prepar ednesa without the cost of an exclu- ;. slve military measure." Register.

For Instance; what do you think of the following aphorisms: "Life is a conspiracy against wo man." ... "It is the male does the sputter ing."

Nothing can resist the incessant and consistent will of woman, when she knows what is true and wills what Is good.' The writer reasons broadly for the age of woman, that It has come to May. He does not pettifog for the sex superiority of woman, but Insists that goodness comes to her as to man. not by nature but must be worked for and fought for desperately. But he does make cabalistic Inferences, print ed in boxcar letters, showing that In tellectual men have the most women friends. Intimating , that they prefer brains to beef. He also hnw h u Is In the economic world that woman mum seek her freedom, not In dress reform, although he does refer to the "flapping indecency of skirts" - as "degrading sex advertising rags." Vance! Thompson ma.ka a. mat deal of woman's higher sense of or der; that the brain of woman is an ordinary brain; that order, not dis order, is the basis of all art; that In private and public affairs woman stands for orderly procedure, for the uimvenuonamies ana rules or social order; that she will make a better and more economical public adminis trator, and hence we are due for a woman ruled world. He does not quite say It but we are left to assume that in this new world she will al ternately fill all offices with men, that is men and women will take turn about filling every office and let the world Judge of efficiency. vent Ion hed at Macleay next Sunday, I several from Auburn are planning on Auburn News Notes The pupils of the Auburn school gave a program and tree Monday eve.
