FOREST CONSERVATION
In the past, lumbermen have been critisized for de
pletion and waste of the country’s forests, and it may be
that much timber has been cut without proper regard
for future needs. But one of the greatest of wastes has
been the loss of valuable timber crops by fire. Through
out this area of Alaska, due to preparation, patrol and
public cooperation, a wonderful record has been made
in the last four or five years during which time the area
l:as, fortunately, suffered no large fire.
Outside lumbermen appear to be keenly alive to the
necessity for conservation of timber and reforestation
of cut-over areas. Here in Alaska we have a virgin for
est and reforestation will not be needed for years.
Continuance of public interest and cooperation,
will bring about sound conditions for perpetuating our
forest industry. No natural resource is more essential
to our national welfare than our forests.
Referring to a well known Alaska legislator; he
has been in the legislature three terms and hasn’t in
troduced a single fool bill. _____

new patients.
Dorothy Hill was the doctor, and

precise maid. Mrs. Lechner and Ed- !

Supported by a fine cast of stage actors, in the fine drama
‘The Last of Mrs. Cheney’
An absorbing drama of high life in which the various
classes use all means to advance their own interests. A
struggle of wits in which the criminal element seems to
make the most success. Who can tell if there is a wood
en-faced butler? Who could guess what the chaffeur was
hiding behind his mask of servility? Wrho knows what the
beautiful shell of the society girl may camouflage? Who
can tell if there is a rotten core to a beautiful establish
ment? With it we will show you a very good
Max Davidson two-reel comedy entitled
“THE BOY FRIEND”
