Forest Recreation Big Increase In 1935 WAUnNOTON. Jan. 17.-In lB3f mar* ptnni than ever before made un of Ttereattonal opportunities ir the National Forest*. according "u the Forest Service, U. S. depart agriculture. , The estimate of national foresi visitor*, including transient motor tots* who avkiled themselves of for est highways, reached the peak fig tire oT 58,548,000. Although the es timates include many duplications llnce there tor no practical way u determine the number who make repeat visit* or pass through more than one national forest, it U be haved that the estimated figures are a reliable Inde* of the volume anti trend of public use of national forests for various types of outdooi recreation. Located in almost three-fourths it all the states and embracing i total land area of more than lfl3, 100,000 acres, the national forests Include areas within convenient motor travel range of the greatei part of the population. They arc also the major areas that are pub tidy owned and available for out door recreational use. t-niei rwesier r. a. ay cox pomu out that increasing recreational use of the national forests means that hundreds of towns and village: within or dose to the national for ests will gain new income from cat ering to campers and tourists. Recreation Is given equal statu: with, and in certain areas preced ence over, other forest resources The objectives of preserving or en hancing esthetic values influence: all the work in the forests. Many new eatnp grounds hav: been created, and existing camp: infproved. There are now more thar 3,000. These appeal to most visitor: and by opening camps in areas ol minimum hasard to public healtf and property, there is lees dangei that visitors will cause destructlv: tires or other damage. Primitive areas established by th: Forest Servioe total 11,378,411 acres of which about a million and a hall were added in 1035 with the crea tion of three new areas of this desig nation.

Even as late as 1880 plows failed to cut and turn a olean furrow. “They rooted, but would not Invert, the soil,” In the south the shovel plow was used almost universally until some years after the Civil war. Records in the Bureau of Agricultural En gineering show they were “made of wrought Iron In the shape of • • • an Irish shovel, with a loop on the backside for the stock to enter. They generally are made by the blacksmith on the plantation where they are used. They are drawn through the ground with one horse or a mule • • • throwing the dirt i both ways. It Is pretty much like dragging a cat by the tall.” The “Old Colony" plow used in the United States about 1830, reports the 1890 Department of Agriculture Yearbook, left furrows standing up ‘ like the ribs of a lean horse In the month of March. A lasy plowman hight sit on the beam and count every bout (circuit) of his day's work.” Says F. D. R.Using His Office To Stir Up Class Conflict CHICAGO. Jan. 17.—(A*)—Describ ing the New Deal administration as Intolerant of all criticism, R. E.

GUFTILL ROME .—W)—Sanction* lmpoeec by the League of Nations have mod ified conspicuously the home life ol Italy. There probably are few famtllei which do not recognise every daj some new change In their habits anc customs which with varying degree! of bitterness they ascribe to "sanc tions." "Continuous hours" designed tc save offloe light and fuel compel the breadwinners to appear at Jheli work at 9 a. m.p somewhat early foi the average Italian. The two houi “siesta'' has been replaced by on< hour for lunch, but the day’s wort la ended at 4 p. m. School Children Happy The younger children may loot upon sanctions with a less Jaun diced eye than their elders. Ele mentary school hours were reducer to three dally and run from 1( o'clock to one. Family entertainment has beer restricted or rearranged. Theater begin their performances early so a to close by 11 p. m. This means ai earlier night meal which many ai Italian dislikes, for he traditionally is a late diner. After the theater the, trip home ward Is made through streets li scufl’darkneas. Public lllumlnatioi Is cut In half at 10:30 p. m. Many of the cafes and bars whtcl formerly provided Rome’s some what conservative "night life” an closed and their lights extlngulshei before midnight.

HU parent! were wealthy, and provided for tbeh child, from birth, the best doctors and nurses available. He was scien tifically fed, had plenty of treat! air. was warmly and suitably dress ed and owned a nursery full of toys Yet, with all hU blessings, he was not a healthy child. He was punj and small, underweight, nervoui and subject to every stray Infection What he lacked was the humar touch—the ordinary cherishing dera onstratlon of affection which mos | children, even the poorest, can anc do get. Sam's mother was too bus: with club and social duties to givi much time to the child. She did no’ , care for children much anyway finding them dull and uninterest lng. She loved Sam because he wa ' hers, but beyond giving him th< physical care and every materia advantage available, paid little at tention to him. Children, like plants and animals | need affection and thrive under it , It need not be very demonstrative An undue amount of kissing ant fondling U apt to bore them. Bu , they must have the assurance o | being loved. Romps, quiet hours o , reading aloud, bed-time chats, ai I occasional jaunt with father o: ‘ mother, sympathy for their grief ; and sorrows, interest in their prob If ms, are all essential to a happy , and so to a healthy childhood. Fo: ' the child who U lonely and unhapp; cannot be healthy any more than i II homeless dog or untended plant. Mind and body are so closely In tcr-related that It is hard to tel | where the one begins and the othe ; ends. The unhappy child is bourn subconsciously to seek through sick ness the Interest and attentioi which is his right. State Buy* Dare Co.

Cloak Of Secrecy Surrounds “Nine Old Men In Black” Who Live To Protect Constitution By ALEXANDER R. GEORGE WASHINGTON.—(/P) — Seemingly oblivious of the clamor created by, 1U Invalidation of AAA and other “new deal" measures, the supreme court of the United States moves serenely froth case to case in the most momentous session since the Ume of the Bred Scott decision. Still cloaked In the tradition of great power, preeminent integrity and detachment from political squabble, the "nine old men In black" continue to function In a mysterious atmosphere of aloofness despite their prominent position in the national spotlight. While the justices In their fate ful roles ass "guardians of the con stitution,” r personify abstract Jus-! tlce beyond the realm of ordinary | j political or personal Influence, they I remain quite responsive to ordinary human Impulses even in their atti tude toward their work. "Privately Interested” Veteran court observers say that a number of the present members of the court have privately mani fested Intense Interest In the reac tion of the public to their decisions In important cases and in the vari ous suggestions for curbing their power or changing the status of the court in the American seheihe of government. Justices have asked fronds con fidentially about “outside” appraisal of opinions they personally bad written and they privately have ex plained and defended* their posi tions on various questions of broad publlo interest. But the court remains a sanctum of great privacy, and for 18 years there apparently never has been a "leak" as to a decision to be re turned. In 1911, a law clerk of a Justice and an employe of the de partment of justice were dismissed from the government servloe after there had been allegations someone had been “tipping off” court opin ions to certain parties In New York City. Monday Is “Opinion Day** The opinions are known to the law clerks of the Justices and to a Washington printing firm which has been handling them on a confiden tial basis for about 80 years, but outsiders (and the term includes the president of the United States) do not have an Inkling of their nature. Monday is “opinion day’1'of the court but on. What Monday a par ticular opinion ;^will be handed down is never definitely known even by the press. The "biggest" opinion may be the layt of a batch handed down on a given Monday. Seniority Is reversed in the order of presenta tion, the youngest Justices with opinions to read being heard first regardless of the relative import ance of the various cases. TULSA DEMOCRATS ASK AL SMITH’S EXPULSION TULSA, Okla., Jan. IT.—Expulsion of Alfred E. Smith from the dem ocratic party was asked Tuesday night in a reaoutlon passed unan mously by the Tulsa City and county Democratic precinct organ isation. “Hie sordid and soul-corroding lure of gold has debased his every noble instinct and he masquerades under the sacred name of liberty,” the resolution said of Smith. 6% INTEREST FOR MONEY ON TIME CERTIFICATE 6-MONTHS NOTICE PRIOR TO WITHDRAWAL 5% 90-D4YS NOTICE PRIOR TO WITHDRAWAL 4% SO-DAYS NOTICE PRIOR TO WITHDRAWAL M. & J.
