Six Sure Ways To Start A Forest Fire

l. Matches. Be sure your match is burning briskly when you throw it away in the woods. Of course a match thinks; that's what its head is for.

2. Tobacco. Thow your lighted cigarettes and cigar stubs and glowing pipe ashes into the biggest heap of brush and needles you can find along the road or trail. Only 40 per cent of our forest fires are caused by smokers.

3. Making Carnp. Build a big bonfire, and place it as close to young trees or clumps of brush as possible. To make sure that your fire will spread, build it on top of the pine needles.

4. Breaking Camp. Don't bother about your fire when you leave camp. The rain is bound to come along and put it out.

5. Bonfires. Build as big a bonfire as you can especially if it is dry and windy. If you build it close to a tree or a rotten log it will burn long after you are gone.

But-if you do any of these things close to a National Forest, be ready to pay a fine and go to jait-wltrere you belong.

There was a man who loved the bees, He always was their friend, One day he sat down on a hive, But trhey stung him in the end.

Shaw On God

George Bernard Shaw, speaking as a layman in an English church, said, in part: "I like to think of my God as a young man with His career still before Him. I hate to think of Him as an old man who strikes bargains with his creatures about the salvation of their souls, or One who has to be bribed or begged."

Too Smart For That

The colored worker vras applying for a job as a mule skinner.

The boss said: "Mose, are you familiar with mules?"

"Nossuh," said Mose. "f krows too much bout mulest'git familiah wid'em."

He got the job.

Adulterated

Many years ago Doctor Wiley was making his famous crusade for the passage of pure food laws in this country, he used to specialize in the following story:

"Four flies, which had found their way into a pantry at the same time, were bent on having a feast, for there was much food in sight. One few to the open flour barrel and ate heartily, but soon died, for the flour was loaded with plaster of Paris. The second perched on the sugar jar. But he fared no better, for the sugar was tinctured with white Iead. The third decided to try the syrup which stood temptingly open. But his legs were soon raised to the ceiling because the syrup was colored with aniline dyes. The fourth, seeing his three friends lying dead, was so overcome with grief that he decided to comrnit suicide. So he deliberately few to the fy poison, and drank deeply. But he is living yet. The fy poison was so adulterated."

Tree Conundrums

What tree its old age sadly cries? Elder. And from what tall one comes low sighs? Pine. Which bears the mark of a smouldering fire? Ash. And which to chastise you, takes your sire? Birch. Which do you carry about in your hand? Palm. And which one tall and slim doth stand? Poplar. Which one bears fruit so gold and round? Orange. And which one hears the sea's deep sound? Beech. Come, tell me, which is a stale joke? Chestnut. And which from a stale acorn woke? Oak. Which tree is cloth and fuel in one? Cottonwood. And from which does sweet fluid.run? Maple.

If I Should Die Tonight

If I should die tonight-

And you should come to my cold corpse and kneelClasping my bier to show the grief you feel-

I say if I should die tonight,

And you should come in deepest grief and woe, And say "Here's that ten dollars that I otee;" I say if I should die tonight

And you should come to me and there and then Just even hint'bout payrng me that ten, I might arise the while, but I'd drop dead again.
