i noted day by day when the players

efforts of the school and the com

have a real field.

preparations. Member of the board

honor of having one of the best
fldd in Eastern Oregon is quite
pomiMc.

FOREST PICTURES
SFEN BY MANY
Fereet Service Officials Tall of Co,
serration of Oar Great
Wealth Source
The Legion hall was well filled
wrth Mauplnltes Tuesday evening
when Geo. E. Griffith, a member of
the public relation department of the
U. S. Forest Service and Hon. W.
V. Fuller, a member of the state
bureau of forestry, gave a showing
of motion pictures depicting forest
life and forest habits, aa well as the
ravages wrought by forest fires.
Preceding the forest pictures a
laughable comedy was thrown on the
screen, that being a feature designed
to please the children. Then Mr.
Griffith told of the work of the var
ious departments and cautioned
againrt careless u:e of fire in the
woods.
The purpose of the lectures is to
bring about a better understanding
of the value and importance of the
forest resources and industries of
the state. They deal constructively
with one of the outstanding- problems
confronting the state of Oregon to
day, a problem as vital to the agrl
rulturcal region of eastern Oregon
as it is to the timbered portions of
the state. Forest-fire prevention is
not the whole story, but is brought
in a an important factor.
This problem has been presented
before grade and High schools,
granges, eivic clubs and other gath
erings, and has been highly endorsed
wherever shown. It is worthwhile
for its eivic, educational and enter
tainment values, and contains noth
ing of an objectable propaganda na
ture. EARLY RAINS LESSENED
HATCHING OF PHEASANTS
Quail Seam to Have Iacreated
Spite of Heavy Wintert
Good Bag Secured
Chinese pheasant hunting, accord
ing to reports to the State Game
commlrslon ha not been as good in
Oregon this season as it has been in
the past This is said to be due, in
no small measure, to the fact that
the late, cold and rainy season cut
down the first hatch of young
pheasants. The second and third
batches, which came in dry warm
weather proved up to normal. On
the other hand, quail hunting in
those counties that have an open
season, has been extremely good.
Strange as it may seem, in open
counties there appear ot be more
birds than there arc in those counties
that are closed. This is due, it is
contended, to the break-up of flocks
and the consequent cutting down of
inbreeding, which reulta in more
non-fertile eggs.
