Our national forest needs are being given better recognition. Almost $3, 000,000 ^additional have been provided for forest protection during the next fiscal year. The National Park Service is receiving additional funds to carry out important development work, the Bureau of Fisheries is receiving more financial aid, and the Biological Survey's appropriations look considerably better. Among the increases in the items for the Biological Sufvtey, aggregating about $300,000, are the funds authorized for refuges under the Norbeck- Andresen Act and almost $50,000 additional for the employment of federal game protectors. This latter amount is still far from being adequate but indications are that Congress intends to alleviate a serious deficiency in this direction as rapidly as funds will permit. The prospects for various measures in which the conservation forces of America are interested are very good. It seems as though Congress is fully Iswake to the tremendous public sentiment for conservation, and intends to give this phase of our national problems full consideration.

Thirteen months ago the Danish training ship Koenhavn, which vanished mysteriously in December of 1928, appeared like a bedraggled wraith In the middle of the South Atlantic ocean, heading toward the polar seas of Antarctogea. This is the weira news brought hero by Philip Lindsay, a British missionary, the first man to reach civilization from the Tristan da Cunha Island group since January of 1929. The Tristan da Cunhas are in the South Atlantic, just north of the extreme limit of floating ice, and about midway between Buenos Aires and Cape Town. According to Lindsay, the Koenhavn,' like a spectre, passed the Tristan da Cunhas on January 21, 1929. Her mainmast was missing anil her rigging flying loose in the wind. The only recognizable feature of the ship was her back hull, around which a white band had been painted. When last heard of the Koenhavn sailed from La Plata, Argentina, for Australia, on December 14, 1928. Sixty naval cadets were aboard. Including scions of some of Denmark's most prominent families. Several staff officers of the Danish navy were aboard. tee be given a rising vote of thanks Motion carried. Motion by Doherty, seconded by Schaefer, that the annual meeting be held April 21, 1930.

Iola, Kan.--From a concert pianist with excellent prospects In Chicago, to operator of a drug store in a city of less than 10,000 population, is a long step, but a step which filial devotion prompted Lloyd N. Brown to take. Five years ago Brown was an Instructor in piano tn a Chicago music institute. He had completed his study there and had been retained as an Instructor. In addition to teaching, he filled concert engagements and on several occasions played with the Chicago Symphony orchestra. His prospects were bright and it was predicted he would soon be one of the outstanding figures in the musical world. Just as Brown was making the most forward strides toward fame he received word from home that his father, Dr. H. A. Brown, veteran physician and druggist here, had suffered a stroke of paralysis and that Lloyd, the only son, was needed at home. As he saw it, only one road was open for him. Before him was success in the musical world that he loved; not only success for himself, but for his wife, an accomplished violinist whom he met and married in Chicago. He closed his piano, resigned his position with the College and forsook his career as a musician to hurry home to his parents and to enter the comparatively strange profession of a druggist. • But his heart is not in the drag business. He intends some day to return to his tnusic. He has a standing offer to return to Chicago as an In-; structor. r * Pedkep* She Ir Correct Women 4ire funny creatures.

He was, therefore, a bit wary when an affluent looking stranger breezed Into his shoe shining^ parlor at 166 East One Hundred and| Seventh street and asked where he< could find a priest. At the moment Tony was busy shining the shoes of Eugene Ferlas, who had been a regular customer for four months. "What you want a priest for?" Tony asked the stranger. The stranger said his father, a mil llonalre oil man of Mexico, wanted* to give $12,000 to^the poor, through priest. Ferlas got down out of the chair, took Tony aside, and suggested that they needed the money just a much as the poor needed it. The phl^ lanthropist opened his bag to show it contained a roll of money and offered to leave It while he looked for a prlestL provided Tony would put up som# money as security. "Well, said Tony, Til just send on® of my shine boys for a priest," and the shine boy, taking the address Tony gave him, went away. The address was a police station. The police found the roll In the: philanthropist's bag contained one $5 bill, two $1 bills and a neat wad of paper. At the police station the philanthropist turned out to be Louis Rodin, forty years old, and Ferlas, the, customer who wanted Tony to share the money with him instead of let ting It go to the poor, was identified as having been sentenced to Sing Sing; several years ago fer working a slmir lar game. ^French Retain Battle Scars as Memorials Paris. -- The citizens of Verdun' have sworn an oath to oppose any attempt at reconstruction or reforest atlon of the war-torn slopes of the- Meuse valley that were devastated during the fierce fighting that centered around that district during the World war. They feel that this encircling strip of shell-pocked and uprooted land Is the most fitting memorial to the many French soldiers who died maintaining their bravo oath, "They ahiU not pass." Funeral Costs Too High, so Town Fixes Prices Mexico City.---The municipal gov ernment of Guaymas, Sonora, has In' terfered In the town's undertakers' business in order Jto five its citizens an economic burial. Complaints were lodged that undertakers and funeral carriage owners were profiteering, The council then fixed a scale of prices with a penalty for violations.
