Today we ;have many glaciers and two great sheets in Greenland and Antarctica. j Now it is perfectly true that j water stored in all of these earth's glaciers and ice sheets add3 up to only about 1 per Icent of the earth's tidal water. iYet this small amount holds a j tight reign in our climate, our Christmas Tree Pick Up Scheduled by Moose The fifth annual Christmas tree lift for the benefit of the March of Dimes has been an nounced by the Moose lodge.

By EUSENE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist water resources, and the level! of our oceans. And upon life as it exists today. It holds the key to our weather and our very existence. A tornado may swirl through Oklahoma yet by a chain of reactions one carr trace its be ginnings to the far north and the far south where weather is made affected by both the re frigerators of the Greenland ice cap and the Antarctic icecap. Two-Ton Chunk for All To give you an idea of what this 1 per cent of compacted snow (glaciers) means see what the famous polar explorer Paul Emile Victor of France says: If the Greenland icecap (which is about 12 per cent of the size of the Antarctic) were saw ed into jumbo-sized ice cubes, there would be enough to give a two-ton chunk to every man, woman and child on earth every minute for a year. Spread evenly around the globe like frosting on a global cupcake, the glaciers of the world would yield enough ice to encase the world in a 170-foot thick ice sheath. Should all this ice melt all of the world's ports would disap pear and the inhabitants of low lands and many valleys would be forced to higher ground. The sea would be much warmer kill ing most of its fish life; perhaps the earth's climate would be from 15-20 degrees warmer making much of it unbearable to humans; and those fertile areas which would not be under the tepid ocean would not bear the crops they now do.

Washington Offering Seedlings to Oregon Olympia, Wash. Washing ton's state department of natur al resources is offering Douglas fir seedlings at cost to western Oregon landowners, Washington State Land Commissioner Bert Cole has announced. Cole said approximately 2 million, 2-year-old trees are still uncommitted at the department's new nursery near Olympia, and the decision was made to offer them . for planting in western Oregon. The trees were grown from western Washington seed, and therefore the nursery stock is suitable for western Oregon planting also, Donald R. Hop kins, forest management division supervisor for the department of natural resources, said.
