Wehmeyer Tells of
Ranger School
The annual ranger training school
is being held at Hemlock ranger
station in the Wind River valley,
Skamania county, Wash. The near
est postoffce is located at the little
town of Carson, ten miles away, at
the mouth of Wind river. F. F.
Wehmeyer, local ranger in attend
ance, reports:
At Hemlock there is the regular
set-up for the West side ranger dis
trict, consisting of warehouses, res
idences, bunk houses, offices and
other necessary buildings. In addi
ton, there is the experiment station
and nursery. At the latter some
three million trees are raised annu
ally for planting denuded areas in
the national forests of Region Six.
Close by we have the school build
ings, consisting of class and assem
bly hall and dormitory. Altogether
Choir Boys Prepare for Easter Services
NEW,YORK ... In spite of late snows and inclement spring weather,
preparations for. ati early Easter are well underway. These choir boys
of Grace Church are busy rehearsing their Joyous anthems for the
cpeciaTEaster services.
there are probably fifty or more
buildings, besides the local CCC
camp. The school buildings are
modern to the last degree with elec
tric lights, steam heat and all other
conveniences.
This 'year's class of rangers was
selected from the older members of
the service and the average period
of service is over 15 years. More
than half the men are near the 25
year service group.
The classes are based on the in
formational conference method and
cover twelve of the activities com
ing under a ranger's supervision.
Grazing administration, fire control,
recreational activities, state and pri
vate forestry, timber management,
land uses, are a part of the course.
The 30 rangers present were di-l
vided into classes of ten men each.
Special instructors in each subject
covering from one day to four days
depending upon its relative import
ance in a rangers daily work. The
school covers a five-weeks' period.
Eight hours per day is given to class,
and with evening lectures and ref
erence reading, tend to make a rather
full day. Emphasis of the entire
meeting is centered on what can be
done as public servants to better
serve the public. Social security of
dependent communities is being ser
iously studied as a part of govern
mental duty.
Schooling is not being confined to
the rangers. As we move out near
the first of April, a class of improve
ment foremen move in for instruction.
