Glfford Plnchot, tile governmont for

ject: "To be a good foreitor a man
should combine something of the
naturalist with a good denl of tho
business man. To know how to use
tho forest ho must be able to study
It. He must have, thoreforo, tho
power of observation, a fondness for
nature, and tho ability to penetrate
her secrets. But If ho Is to succeed
ho must also havo good practical
Judgment and the ability to meet and
handle men. He must be resource
ful, able to Btand by himself, willing
to undergo the privations of rough
life, and capnble of commnndlng the
respect of rough men, who quickly
recognize civility nnd genulness of
character, but will not tolerate pre
tense or the assumption of superi
ority. A forester needs n vogorouB
mind In a vigorous body. Ho miiBt

things done, and does not give up
when things nro not going hlB way.
