The proclamation was not made, and will not be made this year, because the law now provides that in New Jersey the first Friday in May in each year shall be designated and observed as Asbor Day. The observance this year will, therefore, be on May 6, and the State Forester urges that it be made an occasion to emphasize the special needs of this State with respect to its forests. When Nebraska started Arbor Day, back in the '70's, the school children planted trees, and older people planted trees, because the State had few forests, and trees were needed to protect the homes against sun and wind, to furnish lumber and firewood, and to civilize the newly established communities. This was logical and right, but New Jersey has never had the same need.

We once had too much forest, and still have quite enough--such as it is. We need more shade trees, of course, and some localities may well have more forests. yet our chief aim should be rather to improve what we have than to strive for more. The State is fortunate in having a great area of woodland on which are at once the remnants and the germs of valuable forests. The land that needs to be planted is comparatively insignifi.

RaG CORSETS A model for every figure. STEPHEN FISKE OFFERS PRIZE Stephen' Fiske, of the class of 1862, has addressed the following letter, with cheque enclosed, to the editor of The Targum, of Rutgers College: you approve, offer a prize of ten dollars to members of the Philoclean Society fore then contribution to The Targum of the articie most helpful to Rutgers College, the contribution to be prose or verse, a story, an essay, or in paragraphs, and the editors of The Targum to be the judges and award the prize at close of term, or of this year, at their discretion. "This in memory of my associates in the Philoclean and in recognition from Professor J.

Laurence Laughlin of the University of Chicago, who is chairman of the committee in charge of the contests." The prizes have been offered from year to year by Hart Schaffner Marx for the past six years and have brought out so many excellent studies of commercial and economic subjects are now renewed for the seventh year, The subject of the essays cover such important topics as: The value of protectionism to American workingmen. The economic reasons for or against the benefits received from the society as speaker and writer." The proposed prize has been accepted. and will awarded at the end of the present year, the contributors to be anonymous and their real names "to be enclosed in separate sealed envelopes. Frank E. Mason, the chief editor of The Targum, says that the prize should serve to increase interest both in the Philoclean Society, recently after many years of desuetude, the rexixed, college paper.

It is another proof of a fact which has become proverbial-that the alumni are always doing something for Rutgers, while Rutgers never does anything for the alumni. New Jersey's problem is forest fires. Year after year they ravage the woods, destroy the young trees and impoverish the soil. These must be stopped or all hope of better forests be given up. That they can be stopped, or at least controlled, is proved by the experience of other nations.

The task is no easy one, for a whole people must be educated, and the habits of generations be broken up, yet the record of the Forest Commission for the past three years shows a steady progress. Let the children be taught that every, forest fire, no matter how slight, harmful because it destroys the young trees, and because it robs the soil of the food---the decaying leaves, twigs and bits of bark, upon which the old trees as well as the young ones live. A fire set thoughtlessly in a dry grass field may, often does, run into the woods and do great damage. Let all the people know that in no way can forestry be so advanced as by upholding and strengthening the forest fire service which aims to stop these burnings. The State has 200 fire wardens; it needs more.

It has 300 miles of wide fire lines; it needs ten, times as much. It must have, above all, the active support, not merely the passive good will, of every man, woman and child. If Arbor Day shall give this it will have accomplished as much for New Jersey as it has for Nebraska, or can accomplish for any State, OPERA HOUSE BILL FOR LAST OF THE WEEK A new program begins tomorrow at the Opera House when tour new acts will be added to the Simian Playmates who are held over. The added attractions are of the best quality obtainabie in vaudeville. Burns and Walsh are acrobatic dancers out of the ordinary.

They bear the title of being the best in their line The lady member is not only pretty, but the quickest lady known one her feet. She spins like a top at times, and is as graceful as a bird. She fairly flys through the air. Milton and Morrison have a high class dramatic comedy to offer that seems to have created considerable comment by the press. "The Actress and the Reformer" is the title of the sketch and suggests a satire on the stage.

The scene is laid in a dressing room and a world of comedy situations is the result. Master Henry McCarthy, the juvenile minstrel, is a regular comedian reels off his wit and topical songs in the fashion of the old timer. The young man is reputed to have a real novelty of fun. Lillian La Vaide, comedienne, a clever singer and dancer, has everything new in the song line with fine clothes and good looks. Of cc course she is a big success.

The usual change in motion pictures will bring several novelties that are both instructive and interesting. Notwithstanding the rain the past two days the Opera House has done a remarkable business which is convincing vaudeville is the popular entertainment. The Bijou Company are to furnish the very best material and will continue to do so during the run of vaudeville in the opera house. NEW YORK MESSENGER. buy your New York theater messenger, tickets.
