FOREST FIRE PREVENTION
American Foresi week should an
nually become one ol the most Im
portant events in each of our states,
This nation’s future depends tipan an
everlasting supply of timber.
For four years the United Stales
Forest .Service has directed obser
vance of Forest Protection Week.
This year it felt that tbe best Inier-
e.sts of forestry would 'be served by
transferring observance of the week
to non-governmental agencies. As
a result various organizations all
over the United States are taking an
interest in the matter. Lumber
manufacturers associations have ren
dered particular assistance.
The American public is one of the
greate.sr on'enders In forest destruc
lion because of Its carele.ssnesa with
Aie. If It can be awakened to Its
re.>|}ons{blllty a.s th'j bent guardian
of Its own forest resources, the first
big step will have been taken In re

have a chance to grow without being
blighted by thousands of forest fires

LAW NOT A SUBSTITUTE
FOR COMMON SENSE
If u man insist.s on paying $500
for a ninth-hand, len-year-old
automobile worth about $25, law
can keep him from It. It’s the same
in buying inve.stroents. If a man In-
^■.i^t-; on throwing his money away,
dealing w.th big-talk .strangers and
trying tu gel something for nothing,
no law c:in protect him from his
folly. Since Kansas adopted the first
Bliie-Sky l.aw fourteen years ago,
lorty-flve other sta .es have enacted
measures lieslgned to prevent fraud.
Scarcely two of the.'!® laws are alike.
A wide variety of experimenting has
tieen tried
When the year (d 1925 close,; It
will have seen forty-five legi.slatures
in -‘C-'i-.lon In ihe suites and terrltor-
ie., .ind the national government of
ihl.4 Union. They vlll enact thous-
;inds of new laws and tinker up
thouitand.s of old It.ws. It’s a pro-
ces.s that goes on continually at a
!o,t of niillions of dollars annually.
And every year the basic problem
remains the same—you can't sub-
jlitute law for common sense. No
LIVING MEMORIALS
Each recurring memorial day, lo
commemorate the fortUudu and
heroism of the men and women who
made history fo rthe South and for
the entire civilized world, should be
an object lesson to the younger
generation, it should be a stimulant
for life a.s well as a memory of
death. The boy.s and glrl.s, the young
men and young women of the South
—th'e.se valiant soldiers in the .strife
for better and finer citizenship, who
knew not the priva'ilon.s, the .suffer
ings either of the body or of the
.spirit of those who have gone and
of those few who remain—can, by
their strength of character and no
bility of action, a.ssiiage the sorrow
and become living memorials to the
everlasting glory of the Southland.
Truly, the dead cannot hear our
eulogy. It is to the living that wo
must addres.s our appeal. The mem-
oiy of the soldiers who fell In bat
tle an^ of the mothers who tell In
.sorrow and want, now finds Its finest
expression In the youth of our land,
in the South’s great and growing In
stitutions, her schools and universi
ties, her great highway.s and arteries
of travel, her splendid citizenship,
her commerce and general economic'
advancement.
In a spirit of reverence these insti
tutions and the people who Jiave
made them possible now oirew Ihe
flowers upon the tombs of the de
parted whom we now honor, and
from who.se .sacrlfice.s the Jnsplra-
tlou for noble achievements has
arisen.
