organization operated by men really interested in the work
ought to he given a national standing that will be of gen

government give such recognition to the work of the Green
Cross that its services will be as valuable to forestry and fores
tation as the Red Cross lias been to Immunity. Incidentally the
Green Cross, if it carries out its very ambitious plans, will be
of tremendous service to humanity, for the preservation of the
forests is vital to the preservation of the country.

old maps show many locations of what once bore the dignified

The forests anil their preservation are a serious national

A HKMj POCTOU SAVS SOMETHING
THE MENACE
AN JTKiM in the news recently uas under-cmphasizud by ren-
son of the ciiautmeut made by Tresident Hoover's move-
luetit toward a temporary moratorium of World war dobts. The
item concerned the Tope and Mussolini. It was a statement from
the Tope that things are not going well with the Catholic church
in Italy. Tim Tope declares that free speech and all freedom of
thought and aefion are dead in Italy under Mussolini and he
protests against the spiritual decay that will epiuo from such a
state of affairs. ' . .
.. There Is no doubt that liberty and Christiauity must go to
gether from now on. Any force or influence in society which
limits tlio widest tolerance, or miw government which restricts
man's rights to say and think uud worship as he pleases is a
blow to Christianity.
TIIl'j Christian church has not known this long. It took 1,500

was liberty, tint now the lesson is taught. The Tope knows it.
The heads of all the great Christian denominations know it.
And the dictatorship of iui..o.utoerat like Mussolini is just as
serious a challenge to V'hristianity no matter how fair ho talks
out religion, as is the dictatorship of the poletariat under
Stalin, who is frank in his scorn of Christianity. Mussolini and
the Holsltevisls eonslitttte the great menace of this eenttiry. In
deed Fascism and (iolshevisin are the major challenges of that
form of progressive, intellectual, spiritual, and economic free
dom known as Christianity which has brought tho world so far
forward in the last 2,000 years. Emporju (Kai)sns) Gazette

And as soon as somebody starts something and the millions
timidly fall in line, we'll hear some more about the typical
American's splendid initiative. '

cause of Bruce s tone and manner.
, !'Too bad there's no movie cam

The embarrassed Pierre protest-

Bruce interrupted him. , "Sure,

And who will mother poor Pierre
and advise bin. about his soul and

Ann, without speaking, was
watching her husband doubtfully.
Pierre attempted to bide bis em.
barras8ment by burlesquing the
exit of a frightened lover. As he
reached the archway opening Into
the hall Bruce called: "What's your
hurry. Pierre? Don't go on my ac
count. I did not mean to butt In
ou your tender scene; It was very
effoctlve, really."
Pierre whirled and ran hastily
up the stairs.
Bruce's laughter alarmed Ann.
"Bruce," she exclaimed, "what In
the world Is the matter with you?'
"There's not a thing the matter
with me," he returned grimly, "but
I havo something to say to you, my

"Yes, retorted Ann coldly. "It
must be something very Important,
Judging from your tone.

Ann drew herself up defiantly.
"Well, what of It? You have known
all along what I think about your

away frrom him. You and father

f Bruce controlled himself with an
effort. "Listen, Ann. I've told you

you that you have no right to ask
Pierre to let you risk his school
money In a business about wblcb
you knoy less than nothing."
"But I do know all about this
Red Butte mlno."
Ann's only answer was a gesture
of hopeless resignation signifying
tiint It was iaele8s to continue such
a fruitless argument
Bruce moved uneasily about, con
sidering whether or not he should
toll his wife something which he
had so far kept from her. Then he
said. "Ann, If I tell you how I
know this Nevada mining nronost

you won t tell Pierre?"
Ann was surprised. "Not toll

'Ves do you promise not to re

She considered a moment, then:
"Why. yes. Bruce; of course I
promise not to toll anybody any
thing which you ask me not to
mention."
"Well, then," said Bruce. "I

who told me about It and wants
me to go in with him nn.....
knows the mining game from the
ground up no was born and
1 raised in the West up to the time
he went Into the theatrical busl
ncss. And when he quit Pierre's
; mother and the theater he went
: back west again Into mining"
I Ann drew back In amaiement.
Bruce! Are you talking about
Roy Donovan, Pierre's father?"
I "Yes."
"Well, no wonder you don't want
Pierre to know who is back of your
precious mining scheme. A fine
chance you'd have to ever get a
penny of Pierre's money for It at-;
ter the way his father treated hls
mother when he was a chlid.;
Shame on you,' Bruce Carey!"
"Now you look here, Ann, It's
true enough that Donovan left
Pierre and bis mother flat and has
never been heard of by them since,
bu' don't forget that he was my
stepfather and that even after my
mother died -be continued to taka
care ot me as if 1 were bis own
son.": - '
Ann returned Indignantly: "And
don't you forget, Bruce Carey, that
when Roy Donovan married Harriet
Noel she mothered you aa if you
were her own boy, and that even
after her own son. Pierre,, was born
she treated you as lf you and Pierre
were brothers. You talk about this
man Donovan being like a father
tc youi You owe a thousand times
more to Pierre's tnotber! I know
because Father Tony Latour has
told me all about It" .
"Leave that old fool Tony, out
of this, will you?" growled Bruce.-
"If It hadn't been for bim you and'
I'd have had this deal cinched long
ago." '". ' ' - , ';
"Do you mean tp tell me, Bruce,.
that all these years that you have
been growing up bere in Orchard
Hill you have known where Roy
Donovan was?" 1
"No, I never heard from him
after be quit the theater and I
came to live In Orchard Hill, until
he wrote me about this mine."
Ann returned thoughtfully: "I
see your precious stepfather evI-!
dently knows about this money
Pierre received from bis mother'B
will on his twentieth birthday, and
figures that be can get bold ot It
through you. I'm sorry 1 promised .
you I wouldn't tell Pierre."
"I suppose you wouldn't believe
tl'at Roy Donovan really wants to
do something big for his own son,
Pierre, and for me?
"No, Bruce, I couldn't believe
that." , . .. I
And you still refuse ( help me '
persuade Pierre to let me invest
his money for him?"
I certainly do, Bruce more
than ever, after what you have told
me. Are you so crazy for money
that you have lost all sense of
what is honorable?"
"All right Now listen to what
I've got to say. No man can do big
things without his wife's help.
You have no ambition either for
yourself .or for me. You would be
content to have me a bank clerk
here in Orchard Hlrt the rest ot
my life, just like your mother and
you kept your father down all his
lifo. You would saddle mo with a
raft ot kids beforo we could afford
an automobile! It may be all right
for you you have never known
anything but this damned hick
town, but I wasn't born here and
I don't intend to spend my life
here. I've had Just about all I can
stand ot Pierre and his career, and
his dead mother's Influence, and
your'; sentimental mooning over
him.
Pierre loves you. He loved von
before I married you. But he gave
you up for his art Just as his
mother before him gave up Antonio
Latour. Pierre would do anything
you asked bim, and If I lose this
chance to make a stake It'll be all
your fault. You can take your
choice; persuade Pierre to let mo
use his money, or I'll cut tho whole
works and strike out for mvsolf.
If you don't play with me I'll nlav
a lone hand."
Bruce, Brute, you'ro crazy I Yon
wouldn't you couldn't"
Bruce continued, relentlessly:
"It's not like I waa trvinz to stent
Pierre's money. rm proposing
meroly to Invest It In such a wny
that It'll make big returns for him
and put me on my feet at the same
time.
"But Pierre's plans! His ertnen.
tlon tor the stage! Hlo career,'"
on. rot! I toll you 1 nniv onn,i
this money for a year! But thero's
my proposition take your choice"'
Ann's reply was DraventoH h
Pierre who anneared rannlt,. an
the stairs.
Upon entering the room. Pierre
could not help seeing that there!-
as trouble between tha liiihsnr
and wife. Bruce, hard, cold eniJ
lntlng, looked from Ann to Piert-J
and from Pierre back to Ann. Ann.'
trying to hide her tears, could not
speak. Pierre, embarrassed, uneasy-fearing
that he might ho the
cause ot their quarrel-looked from
one to the other In boyish uncer
