The evangelist had been invited to 'ie saloon by its owner. "The proprietor of this 'place" said Mr. Jones, "has invited us to hold religious services, giving us an opportunity to talk to men whom we might not otherwise have met, I love him rnd all these men about me, but I am against the liquor business.

Squirrels collect much of the seed used for planting by the forest ser vice service. A crowing scarcity of willow, generally used for wooden shoes in Europe, is leading to an adoption of poplar. Tom y pine, a distinct California species, has been found in only two ioslated localities in the southern part of the state. One hundred acres on the Florida national forest will be sown to mar itime pint- seed this fall. Maritime pine is the source of the French tur pentine industry. San Francisco recently received first cargo of lumber from the Ton- ir.ms national forest. Alaska. The m shipment consisted of 1,500,000 feet of Sitka spruce. Three native species of larch furnish timber in the United States. One grows in NevV England and the lake states, another in the Paci fic northwest, and the third in the high mountains of the northern Rockies. European larch has been planted extensively in the prairie states. cvQn Your home newspaper heralded to the world your birth. It told of your entry into school.
