Mr. I'inchut Is it friend of th .-president, and a member of tho 'Ten uis ( ablnet." W hether those opposed to him figure out that he stands in need of constant advertisement is n mystery. Then' arc a number of shrinking members ol both houses, whose avcr- . sion to publicity is the despair of all the purveyors- of. public intelligence. T heir lue.ietnieiil of the ' forest ser vile, charging that a ' press hureau i ; iiiaintaineil, is truly cnintc. . la ...Oil! connection It might be said tnat it would be n verv good thing for the government, as wll as the people I of the I 'fitted States, if there was one liian in each . important br.iueh ot the nauutail 'government who v. as com petent to explain In detail toe lmrior- : tan-t activities. . Government reports nii dreary rending and have a benumb ing eftect on the human intellect. No other printed pages eiU;;il them in d''Ud- - ly dullness. ": ' .' '.- It often occurs that these report: contain something of the keenest In terest and greatest Importance, hut the public loses this Infoi inatlor because it Is not gleaned from the tin liilcresilnrr and unimportant, and net ' put up' In an attractive, inviting form. Tlie government officials who make up reports seem to take care to elim inate all freshness, all lnterosfng fea tures, and to use a. form ot language at once wearying and taxing to 111 understanding. It would ije a Rood tiling to employ plain, simple Knglish. never mploy . ing a four-sellable word when a one svllable Word will express the suim thought. A little ot tills kind of pub licity will go a long ways toward ere. tttlng a general Interest In the do ings at the capital. Just now, people are not reading reports, nor will the; until there ban been a reform. A scientist of tho department of ag rlrulture net out to -determine In - th average litter of pips how many are male and how many female. Ho madi little, of his opoprlunlty. unfortunate ly, and still more unfortunutely, tin public did not care. Another scientist had printed a re markable report of an Investigation, upon which to furnish free ndvlco t citizens, bo that they would be able t know the common house-fly. He used K long string of Latin words. Plain, good Knglish' cropped out In one place, and he said: ''The house-fly won bite you: don't be afraid." Latin names are not needed to know the pestiferous house-fly. He dcx j bite, notwithstanding tho scientist, ai everyone knows who has tried to sleep late of a summer's morning. Every citizen who has bought screens can tell a house-fly ten yards distant am the men who sell the screens do no display Latin arguments to help thi purchase of them. i Tho scientist wanted- to tell what n dangerous chnp tho house-fly Is am how Important It Is to shoo him out ol the house and keep him out. He did not convey a warning In his report, ' however- Tho following sentence would have summed up the entire subject, and no brushing up In language!-, plnyed-out fresh, is needed to set 1 forth: "The house-fly Is a mean kind of a- pest, who la never. Battened unlea. annoying human beings. Ho carrlet tho germ vt typhoid tever n his logs and he is liable. In crawling over your j food or vour lips to drop a few of these , germs. Then you are name 10 get i.v -phoid fever. So keep the houseily out of the house." . The forest service is liow sending reports of its work to the newspapers. When thev are dull, as they snip, tunes are, they, are thrown into, the waste basket. The Smithsonian Institute reeently began to send out reports of interest ing work.'- , The -"diffusion of knowl edge - is one of the -organic require-1 ment of the institution..

A verv different re sult .would be obtained the service would get . plenty of uubiieit v. . bin. piobebly. of a. different kind than thru for which such a bureau would be established." Mr. I'inchot. while' not saving so in o many words, conveva the .i.iuinii that no department of the government would be so foolish as to think , that the correspondents could be fooli.d fi,i- y length of time.
