"According to figures based on exâ€" tensive mining operations in IiJlinois, in coâ€"operation with the U. S. Bureau of Mines, it is found that it takes .25 ®f a cubic foot of wood to mine a ton of coal. This is just oneâ€"quarter of the yearly output of coal expressed in <ubie feet, not far from 200,000,000 €ubic feet annually, or 200,000 cords. says R. B. Miller, Chief Forester of the Ilinois State Conservation Deâ€" ’urlml._ "l_!u_! onme of the problems "It may scem rather strange to bear that coal companies are interâ€" ested in timber, when coal and timber are competitors in the fuel business," The Bible is likely to keep its place in a nation the foundations of whose society and government, as President Coolidge has said, rest to such an exâ€" tent upon the teaching of the Bible, that ‘it wouldâ€"beâ€" difficult to support them if faith in these teachings should cease to be practically univerâ€" sal in our country." MUCH TIMBER USED BY ILLINOIS MINES When a million members of a single denomination in America are asked to read a chapter & day in one of the books of the Bible, it is easy to unâ€" derstand why the circulation mounts; for what is true of one is in a measâ€" ure true of all. Jt is to be noted also that in New York eredit may now be given through regents‘ counts for the study of the Bible outside of the schools, and that under a decision of the court of appeals all public school pupils may be excused for attendance upon religious instruction, also outâ€" side of the schools. This is permitted in several other states. This doubtless includes copies sent to other parts of the world, but evem so it does not include an enormous circulstion through other agencies. Last month the British and Foreign Bible Society at its one hundred twenâ€" tyâ€"third meeting over which the lord mayor of London presided, celebrated the purchase in Chink mione for last year of "well over 4,000,000 volumes," «and its own publication in all of 10,â€" 128,087 copies of the Bible in no fewâ€" er than 592 languages. week it was announced that the cirâ€" eulation in 1926 approached 10,000,â€" ©00 copies (the exact figure being 9,917,361 volumes), an increase of more than a halfâ€"million over the preceding year, making a total cirâ€" eulation under the auspices of this wenerable society of 184,028,860 volâ€" Bible still holds the first place hh&hmbwbmAner- len, At the eleventh annual meeting NEARLY 10,000,000 YEARLY Th will probably be whime to w '\.Maâ€"num Lindbergh should be asked what wants most now, he would prob= ':.c\-ubp-&“m #o to work on his plane, President Coolidge is asked to his views on the issues of the Some Reasons Given for news suggests that a good omen . should shooting |__.l~&-=-; Its Popoularity _ The one thing certain to strike the | imagination about the recent West Point Military Academy graduation (when 208 young cadets were comâ€" missioned as officers of the United States army) is the fact that fourâ€" teen of that number had been enâ€" ’lhtoil men in the regular army.

It is fitting, accordingly, that once each year, pubâ€" lie attention be attracted to the fact that West Point is open to all, and that the regular army soldier, if he has the ability, can find an entrance there. To the honor and credit of the ‘regular army, let it be said, that among the fourteen graduated, most of the men ranked high in scholarâ€" ship apd military prowess. Two were cadet captains, one was a cadet lieutenant and two others were runâ€" ning neck and nieck for the distincâ€" tivn of being No. 1, or the honor man of the academy.

"Remedy for the evil of fake adâ€" vertisements that are robbing the people of the country of hundreds of millions of dollars annually lies with the publishers," said Mr. Humphrey. "Publishers who for hire issue these fake advertisements are equally guilâ€" ty with the principal originating them. They share in the illâ€"gotten gains. We have accomplished someâ€" thing with the originators of these schemes, but comparatively Ifttle. They are+ usually fleet and cunning.

For this reason among others, we have found proceeding against them has not accomplished what we hoped.
