The Rudiments of Conservation: Protect,
Preserve, Propagate and Plant '
By ALEXANDER MACDONALD, N. Y. Conservation Commissioner.
CONSERVATION means intelligent nse—securing the maximum
of benefits with a minimum of waste. Applied to our natural
respurcea, it means their utilization with regard to the future
and the generations that are to cofile after us. They have been
; given to ns in abundance for nse, but not for destruction or extermi
; nation. \
Serious inroads had been made upon our natural resources before it
was borne in upon us that they are not inexhaustible. Carelessness,
’waste and prodigality had reduced our forests and decimated the wild
, life of our fields and streams before the need of conserving them began
to impress us. Much of our wild life was gone-before an intelligent
effort was made to save it; the same is true of our fori&ts.
The/intelligent use of 2,000,000 acres of our forest reserve supplies
i a wilderness playground where all the people of the state can enjoy
healthful recreation with no restrictions other than those required for
the necessary protection of this great common property, n
The subject of cbnversation is broad and of vital importance to all
' u8 > its rudiments may be taught in four words: Protect, preserve,
propagate and plant.
Protect our forests from fire and disease. The utmost care in that
bee of fire in the woods is enjoined upon every one.
Preserve ortr forests and wild life that the benefits we enjoy ther^
: from may be enjoyed in like measure by those who come after us.
Propagate valuable species of wild life to prevent their extermination.
This the' state is doing.
this is of paramount importance—forests on every avail
able acre of idle land, because forests fortn the keystone of the conserve- *
tion arch. Upon them depends the -conservation of our streams and our
wild fife. Without forests there would be nothing to conserve
Duty of the Elder Generation to Provide for the
Child an Education
By JULIA LATHROP, Former Chief of Federal Bureau.
Great discoveries already have made pltysically possible universal
comfort and refinement of life, though we are not yet skilled enough to
insure equitably those living conditions which may afford the children of
every family a fair start in life. Our laws and actions lag behind the
attainments science already has made possible. What is now almost com
mon, knowledge of the laws of health, and sanitation fills volumes—what
we neglect to do in obedience to these laws would fill larger volumes.
From the census of 1920, we learn that one-tliiM of our population
is under sixteen years— l2,soo,ooo children are between ten years and
fifteen. Os those 1,060,858 are at work and over onerthird of all those at
work are under thirteen years of age.
The theory of child-labor restriction is a doctrine which leads far.
It applies to every child of every race. It tolerates no exceptions or 1
exemptions from the duty of the elder generation to provide for every }
child an education which shall develop his powers and give him a fair
inthe world of tomorrow. " ’ I

Rev. M. E. Sentelle, D. D., Dean of
Davidson College, occupying the Chair
of Bihle and Philosophy, preached she
baccalaureate sermon before the grad
uating class of—the Kannapolis High
School at the Y. 31. C. A. auditorium
. Sunday, 3lay (ith. His subject was,
“Esau and Jacob.” Dr. Sentelle gave
vivid contrast of these two characters,
Esau l>eing the type, that would win
the hearts and affections of his ac
quaintances, but"« man who cared on
ly for the sensuous, selfish, and mo
mentary phases of life. Jacob in turn
was the less attractive, the “sissy”
type, cowardly and deceptive, who,
however, had a Vision for the future,
the whole difference between the two
characters being determined by the
fact that Jacob took God into his life.
This fact changed his whole life and
took out of it all the mean and little
■ tilings iof his former life. The ser
mon wUs a masterful one and singu

London Chnreh For Deaf, Dumb and
Blind to Close.
London, May 12,—One. of London's s
quaintest institutions, the deaf and
dumb church of St. Savior's, is soon
to disappear. So far as known, it is
only church in the world devoted
exclusively to worship by the deaf,
the dumb and the blind. The increas
ed real estate vulue of the site upon
which this unique institution is built
has made it necesary to close ns
doors, but it is hoped to re-establish
it in a more modest part Os London.
The foundation for the inouest
church was laid by the late King Ed
ward in 1870, and it became familiar
to the hundreds of of
Britons and Americans who |,;,hs
along one of the busiest and noiscst
thoroughfares of the capital. Yet It
is doubtful if a tithe of those passers
by even though to step isftle to wit
ness one of th6;(dfihf ;, and dumb sor
yiges. -A*
.Xfee 'the United States. Great Dri
;ftan is one of the most advanced na
tions in the cure and deucatiort of its
deaf mid dumb. Recognizing the truth
of I)r. Samuel Johnson's statement that
in the care and education of its deaf
and dumb. Recognizing the trutn of
Dr. Samuel Johnson’s statement that
of ail physical deprivation, the deaf
and dumb is “the most desperate of
human calamities,” the state now
provides for the whole of the educa-
needs of this afflicted class of
- population up to the age of 1G
and gives them ass stance in utter
,years.
