The sero hour for show people is when, especially after an extended run, the closing notice goes up on the back stage bulletin board. A theatrical company despite its flurry cf pretty jealousies becomes a closely knitted family. For stars and principals it is economically only a brief vacation but for the great majority it means the weary rounds of the agencies and hunt for jobs. Sentimentally it is a heart wrench for ail and there is no person so sentimental as the hardened trouper. Their illusive world of scot-lights music, laughter and suppressed excitement crumbles c.er night and ail must go sepsr.i? ways.

The mot improvident of all, they are cheeriest when there is little about which to be cheerful. Indeed, it is the custom on closing nights to clown the show.

Audiences are frequently attracted on such occasions just to see what spontaneous foolery takes place. One of the gaudy fables is the reputed haughtinses cf stars toward their lesser brothers and sisters. Some of the closest attachments in the theater are among stars and principals and thocc in the chorus or other minor roles in the same company. I was in at the death of a recent closing.

The gift comes from Charles Lathrop Pack, Lake-wood, N. philanthropist who has befriended conservation and forestry in a material way on many other occasions and has established a number of forestry funds.

Plans for the administration of the fund reveal the projects which will benefit the state at large. Attention will be focused immediately on development of wild land properties owned by the university including more than 7,000 acres in various parts of the state, and cooperation with forest land owners in the effort to promote the practice of forestry and make more profitable the forest management I of privately owned land. Forestry oflers a problem which I may escape the attention and th interest of the city dwelling layman but hich concerns him vitally and is at, the present moment pressing for solution. The forests of pine which once covered the lower peninsula as well as the upper have been chopped down long ago and the severely burned sandy barrens left are so unprofitable that the land is reverting rapidly to the state because the owners are unable or undesirous to keep up taxes on it. This of course adds to state expense while reducing state income and intensifies the problem on the commonwealth and all the taxpayers in it.

The upper peninsula still has large areas of hardwood which need never be converted into waste land if properly handled. That is another purpose of the university forestry department. The reckless stripping of Viich-igan is familiar history. Undoubtedly some of the forests had to be cut to clear the way for the building of homes and the development of the state but the axe fell too often without thought of the futuce and with wasteful abandon. Now there is need so save what little is left and grow more to reclaim these millions of idle acres which yield nothing but cost much.

OTHER EDITORIAL OPINION tONSCIEXCE IS POPULAR From Sfnr An alleged participant in an arson plot which resulted in the loss of seven lives in St. Louis more than twa years ago now is in the hands of the law in that His arrest was the occasion for confession of a troubled conscience. He had been unable to sleei in the dark, he said, "since this awful thing has been on my soul." Yet his conscience allowed him to conceal his guilt, throughout the long period in which the offenders were being sought. It did not point him to the shortest cut to relief voluntary surrender and making a clean breast of the whole affair. Conscience, therefore, moves a little late in this case.

It often does. It is not at all dependable when it has not been carefully watched and trained to do the right thing. Otherwise, it can find more excuses than can be counted for the course it would like to justify. It is in this sense that "conscience does make cowards of us The law cannot wait for it to act and bring the guilty to justice. Society cannot look to it for protection.

Conscience is a priceless possession If it is the right kind of conscience. Then it does its work even before the crime is committed, and the law and society do not need to trouble about the situation at all QUOTATIONS urpHE modern world belongs to the half educated, a rather difficult class, because they do not realize how little they know."

Jr. IT CAN' BE DONE Among the most widely advertised trguments against prohibition Is that pertaining to liquor consumption which is computed for the purpose of charging that the law is ineffective and -won't work.

The same could be said about any law that was not made effective. JMo law works unless it is made to work. A law Is only an inanimate phrase of words, powerless of action by itself. It requires application to attain influence. Sudden and dramatic proof has Just been given here that the prohibition law can be made to work vhen there is a will to make it work.

The federal officers who came into town to raid 13 places and arrest 23 persons on warrants based on previous detection of illegal business, were supplying the application which the law requires to be effective. They made it work. And what can be done once can be done sgaiu and what was done here can be done elsewhere. It requires human enterprise and initiative, however. Tn justice to the local police ho had no part In this energetic cleanup, It should be pointed out that they are handicapped securing necessary evidence.

While they may know that a certain man or a certain place is a purveyor of contraband, they lack the means of obtaining proof which would stand in court, for the reason that they are too well known. It would have been virtually impossible for a member of the local department to have entered the same places and achieved the same "buys" that the federal officers accomplished. In an attempt to alleviate this difficulty somewhat local police several months ago adopted the policy of making raid3 under the city ordinance pertaining to disorderly conduct which does not require a warrant; issued on previously secured evidence. At, the same time that the government's men were completing their Job, the annual boy scout court of honor was being held in another section of town attended by different class of citizenship. While arrests were being made in one instance for selfish and wholly mercenary illegalities awards were being made in the other instance for constructive and unselfish enterprise.

The contrast was vivid, representing two far extremes in society. Yet the purpose of the raids and the purpose of scouting are in one respect ultimately the same, each trying to make this or any town a better, more wholesome and safer place in which to live, the one by cleaning it out and the other by building sood citizenship to keep It clean. NOT WITHOUT APPRECIATION That the pen of Shakespeare is not without appreciation in Battle Creek is the gratifying discovery from the presentation of the Merchant of Venice and Macbeth here this week by au able Shakespearean company. A full house greeted the cast on both nights. In this day of movies, radios, automobiles, book of the month clubs and a hundred other diversions the masterpieces which have endured through the centuries are too often ignored.

The noise and the excitement of the times too frequently distract attention from the quiet power and eloquence the printed word born in the thoughts of geniuses. There is much straying from the perpetual founts of true pleasure to hunt the little streams of the moment which do not satisfy when found and quickly dry up. That the works of a man ho died nearly four centuries ago still retain the power oi inspiration today, is high tribute if he needs further tribute. And the response here to the presentation of those words indicate that a large number in Battle Creek have found at least one source of satisfaction which will never fail them. JUK.

What faults arc these? Not necessarily faults that I am keeping hidden from others. They may be faults that are hidden from my own eyes. And they are apt to be faults which come from my virtues. We frequently hear it said of a man, "He is generous to a fault." The saiing suggests the idea that it is possible to make a fault of a virtue. There are vices which originate in the very goodness of the soul.

We often see a man possessed of some vice which comes from something really good in him. How often young men arc led astray by their generous impulses. They take to the winecup, not from any love of the wine, but from sheer love of fellowship. Love of companionship is a The Bystander in Washington BY HERBERT C. FLUMMER Washington, Feb.

13. In Ed-garde Simone's studio on third floor of an apartment house on I street there are five marble busts which few people would have any difficulty in identifying. First in order is that grand man of the United States supreme court Oliver Wendell Holmes. The next is Sir Esme Howard, ambassador of Great Britain, who leaves the United States the latter part of February. The third is Gen.

John J. Pershing. The fourth is George W. Wicker-sham, chairman of President Hoover's law enforcement commission. And the last is Patrick J.

Hurley, secretary of war. There five marble portraits were made by Simone within the space of about one month. Soon these five, along with 49 other works of the sculptor, are to be exhibited at the National Gallery of Art in the United States National Museum In Washington. Decorated Abroad Simone, who has been decorated three times by the King of Italy, has been in Washington only since the first of January of this year. He came here for the ejrpress purpose of making busts of those high in the official life of this country.

Each of the five national figures whose busts he has completed sat for him. The elderly Justice Holmes posed three hours at different t'mes while Simone fashioned his likeness in clay. General Pershing sat for two hours. The others gave him a like amount of time. Of the five busts completed, the sculptor is loudest in his praise of the one of Wickersham.

Next to the last of the series to be completed, Simone regards it as probably the best of all. Of the five who sat for him. probably the one who aroused in him the greatest enthusiasm was the venerable Holmes. When I asked for his impressions of the famous jurist, Simone could only stretch out both hands in an emphatic gesture and say: 'Marvelous! Simply marvelous!"

TWeH THE TEMPERANCE SOCIETY On February 13. 1S2G the American Soicety for the Promotion of Temperance was founded Boston. It was in this year also that Dr.

Lyman Beecher, noted clergyman. delivered and published his famous temperance sermons at Litchfield, Conn. Under the influence of the churches, the movement made rapid progress, and by 1833, there were finpn local societies in several states more than 1.000.000 members. Although the campaign aaain.st intemperance was lamely directed against the. use of spirits only.

proposal was made and adopted by several societies to include ail alco- holic drinks in the pledge of absi-nence. The American society rejected the proposal iu 1333 but accepted it in 1336 and retained it ever since. About this time. Father Mat hew of Cork, Ireland, the greatest of all temperance missionaries, caused more than 4.000.000 of his countrymen to become abstainers. In this country.

New York state passed a law in 1845 prohibiting the public sale of liquor but repealed it three years later, and in 1851, Maine adopted prohibition. Today the temperance societies are credited with procuring, in a large part, the legislation dealing with drink. New Anesthetic Rochester, Minn.
