WASHINGTON', April 12. Due to
the efforts of l:n:tcd States Senator
Charles L. .McNary, the annual federal
appropriation for the prevention of
forest fires has been increased in the
sum of $300,000.
Last year the amount was 1100,000,
and in inakini; the appropriation for
this year the house increased it
125,000.
When the appropriation reached the
senate, Senator McNary offered an
amendment Increasing it to $025,000,
but althoiiKh it was adopted by that
body, the senute and house conferees
reduced It to $400,000.
The appropriation will be used In
co-operutlou with the states in pre'
venting and combatting forest fires,
the states matching the government
allotment on u &0-D0 basis.
Twenty-nine' states have signified
their Intention of co-operating, Ore
gon being amouK them.
"This appropriation does not mean
that the federal government relieves
the owner of valuable timber from
proteotine tola property," said Senator
McNary today In discussing It.
"In the allotments to the states the
chief emphasis Is placed upon using
the federal fundi) so as to extend the
protection organization of the state
to culled. ioKged-ol'f and other denuded
areas which contain little or no tim
ber of present commercial value, and
whose owners have the least Incentive
to Incur the cost of protection. These
are the very' areas whoso protection
is of the utmost Importance In the
general public Interest, because upon
them ntUHt we depeiid for our supply
of timber after the present virgin for
ests are exhausted.
"We have used up three-fourths of
our original forests, anil the supply
of timber remaining Is becoming less
and less adequate for the require
ments of the country, both In quan
tity and In location. Sixty-one per
cent of what is left lies west of the
Creat Plains, whereas the bulk of the
lumber and paper . consumption is
east of the Great Plains. More than
50 per cent of the standing timber
today is found In the three Pacific
Coast stutes, and lil per cent Is found
in that great western country lying
west of the Mississippi river.
"Our eastern forest states ono after
another have been cut out and ceased
to be important producers of timber
because their vlrigin forests have been
but partially and inadequately replac
ed by second growth after logging.
With the exhaustion of these old
sources of lumber, paper and other
forest products, and with the Increas
ing distance which lumber must bo
hauled from the sawmill to the con
sumer, much of It now across the
with of tho continent, there Is a grow
ing scarcity of forest products, which
in no great length of time will become
critical. Markets may fluctuate one
way or another, owing to financial and
other temporary conditions, hut be
hind it lies a steady decrease in the
supply of timber, which has a very
vltul bearing upon our national hous
ing, our national paper situation and
muny industries which use lumber in
manufactures.
"I might add that statistics show
that one In every twenty-five porsons
in this country finds his livelihood in
occupations directly connected with
lumbering or in industries that are
associated therewith.
"The great causa of this situation
Is forest fires. We have enough, land
unfit for agriculture to trow all the
timber which this country required,
hut it large part of 11 has been made
idle through destructive methods of
logging, nnd particularly through re
peated forest fires. There are 81.000,
000 acres of such land today that are
unproductive as far ns timber crops
of economic value nre concerned; and
forest fires are largely responsible for
their condition. We still have upwards
of 200,000,000 acres of forest land
which has hocn cut over, but contains
culls or second growth timber or is
partially stocked with youne trees.
The small timber and young growth
on this enormous area is a forest asset
of the utmost value. A considerable
part of this area lies in thickly popu
lated states wilhln a stone's throw of
large centers of timber consumption.
Yet are enormous acreage of such
young forests being destroyed by fire
every year. The protection of this
acreage represents the greatest single
forestry problem In the country, and
of Itself will go a long wily toward as
suring a future supply of timber."

EAST 1SOOTH MAY, Maine, April 12
The schooner Dowdoln built to carry
Donald McMillan, the explorer on his
next Arctic voyage starting in July,
was launched here recently.
The ship's hull is egg-shaped with
nothing to which Ice can cling. I'nder
sufficient pressure from the floes In
stead of being crushed, she should lift
out of the water and be carried along
with the pack and slip back when the
pressure Is relieved.
Mac.Vlillan plans to pass through tile
dangerous Fury and llecla strait on
the west side of Baffin Iiay and to
explora a stretch of 1000 miles of the
Baffin west or on which It is be-
jlleved no whit man has ever set fjot.
The Bowdoln Is 80 feet, 10 Inches in
length; 19 feet, 7 inches beam: and 9
feet, 6 inches draft, with a total dis
placement of 115 tons. She is of the
knockabout auxiliary schooner type
equipped with a 45 horse power crude
oil burning engine, an installation
which MaeMillan hopes will insure
him a cruising radius virtually unlim
ited by the use of whale oil to supple-
aiflit tie regular fuel supply.
The Bchooner will have a generous
spread of canvas to enable her to sail
when clear of ice should the fuel
supply give out.
Tin staunchness. of the bull is as
sured by a heavy frame planked witli
three-Inch white oak to which has
been added at the wuterllno a five-foot
belt of green heart of Irouwood. This
armor Is said to withstand the grind
ing action of Ice better than steel or
any other material as the Ice merely
polishes Its hard surface.
When winter sets In a three-foot
covering of snow and ice will be
placed over tho entire ship with snow
houses after the Eskimo typo to cover
the hatchways.
The expedition is planned to cover
two years. It will go under the aus
pices of the MaeMillan Arctic associa
tion, largely composed of alumni of
Bowdoin coilego from which MaeMil
lan wus graduated. The ship has cost
$25,000 and her equipment will- add
$15,000 to this amount.
The party will consist besides Dr.
MaeMillan, of an engineer, three scien
tists and a cook, nil of whom will be
carefully selected.
The Bowdoln will start north the
first week in July.
The schooner was christened by
Miss May Fogg, of Freeport, a niece
of the explorer.
SEATTLE, April 11. Two crews

and will leave Seattle shortly for
their season's work in Alaskan
Waters it was announced today.

"Praise Ood from "Whom all blessings
flow;
"Praise 1 1 1 in al creatures here be
low; "Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
"Praise Father, Son and Holy
Ghost."
In simple grandeur the notes and
words of the old doxology arose from
half a thousand throats; a stalwart,
white-headed Hawaiian senator and
pastor spoke a solemn benediction,
and sixty-four men and women once
lepers filed between the lava pillars
of Kalihl's gates to freedom, back to a
world from which they bad been out
casts, back to the nomes which some
at least had uelieveu they never would
see again.
Science nod won another great bat
tle with the Bcourge of the ages.
The sixty-four patients who were
released on parole the other day from
the Kalihi hospital after treatment
with' refined chaulmoogra oil, consti
tuted the third division so returned to
their homes. In all 142 have been
paroled during Hie past two years and
not a single one has been sent back
owing to recurrence of the disease.
Ofilciilly the institution Is known as
Kalihi hospital, but its inmates call it
by another name, a strange name,, un
less one has seen the cheerfulness
boni of hope that pervades the air
there. It la "Mount Happy.."
Tho clear voice of a Hawaiian wom
an started singing the doxology, others
swelled the volume, and, to the accom
paniment of rustling palms, and the
hum of a warm trade wind In the trees
the air oi tnankfulness and praise car
ried through to Its last grand note.

What Is Electric Service?
Tour tlcctric service wire for lighting, cooking, heating or powr are only one ter
minus of a vast electric equipment covering the territory served by this company.
When you use electric lights or other service, you have the us of distributing lines
with transformers, poles, copper wires, cross-arms and insulators,., sub-stations., with
transformers, switchboards... and regulating devices, ..high tension transmission lines
connecting the different power plants, which are located at different points on the line
so that in case of an accident to one or two plants th other power plants would carry tke
load and keep up the service.
, v; .Your service is safeguarded by a large force of men repairing and testing lines and
apparatus and emergency men with swift automobiles and motorcycles are ready at all
hours of day or night to make repairs, regardless of storms or weather conditions.
A railroad train may be ten minutes late or thirty minutes late, and as long as it
does not occur too often it is not considered a serious fault in the serviee.
a
A customer who wishes to turn on an electric light wishes the service instantly and
blames the service if lights are not instantly available at any hour of the day or night
on the turn of the switch.
In order that your electric lights may be ready for you when you turn the switch,
requires ceaseless, untiring, intelligent supervision of the vast generating and distrib
uting system between the power plants and your service connection.
Yours for electric service, , . . . .
