Life's Philosophies

By Edgar V. Pack, Seattle, Vash.

Well, to begin with, I have taken neither myself nor life too seriously. I learned a long time ago that worry rvas largely interest we paid on troubles that never came. That the footsteps of the Man of Galilee were the best to follow. I have strayed often, but that belief has kept me from getting too far afield. That it rvas far better to stop by the side of the road and lend a helping hand to the distressed than to follow a laurel-crowned vi.ctor who has won the success of a day. That the more sunshine you exuded the more you absorbed. That there was more happiness in giving than in taking. That one should never forget how to play. That a good story is many times a life saver. That one should see the humorous side of life as one travels along its highway. That the Golden Rule was the best ever laid down by anyone. That the Cheerful Idiot and the Philosopher walk hand in hand.' That to be a good mixer is an asset always. That the huniblest was the equal of the highest a,ccording to the way he played the game of life, to be slow to judge and generous when you do, and keep on smiling. I could give you many other bits of philosophy-but time's up.

National Forest Income Shows Gain

National Forest receipts for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1936, rose $774,363 over those of the previous year, to a total net of $4,62,963, the Forest Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, said today.

Almost half this amount was accounted for by timber sales, which brought a total revenue of. $2,161571-a gain oi 28/o over 1935. Receipts from the sale of miscellaneotts forest products, including such things as reindeer moss, decorative boughs, Christmas trees, pine cones and seeds, and gum (oleoresin for turpentine and rosin) leases added another $32,556 to the income of the National Forests.

Second largest sour'ce of National receipts was grazing fees-for 'cattle, horses, sheep, and goats-amounting to $1,433,715-a ,combined increase of $290,28O over last year.

Fees from "Special lJses" (rentals from summer home- sites, hotels, servi,ce stands, and other specialized uses) rvere the third most important income seurce,-receipts t<-rtaling $327,987,.

Receipts on account of timber, grazing, occupancy, and fire trepass, and from permits for water power utilization, accounted for the remainder of the to,tal returns.

Twenty-five per cent of the total net profits from the National Forest is turned over to the individual states. to be apportioned to the counties in which the National liorests are located. These funds, paid in lieu of taxes, are used for road and school purposes by the,counties. Also, an additional 1O per ,cent of the receipts is used by Forest Servi,ce for road-building in the National Forests. Thus, a total of 35 per cent of re'ceipts returns directly to the benefit of local National Forest communities.
