he Utah men and papers have to
ay about his work :
Salt Lake Daily Herald When
udge Brown came here , children
were being arraigned for
ictty offences in the same dock
vith hardened criminals. There
was a cell in the tilt'iy ' city jail
narked "for juveniles } . " Boys and
girls were sent indiscriminately
o the reform school and branded
'or ' life unfit for the good associa
tion when they were not cssential-
y wicked or vicious ; the per cen t
of the saved was infinitesimal *
the permanently damned was aw
ful , This was the situation
when Judge Brown came and bc-
ijau his talks to the boys , and it
takes no long memory to recal-
how the boys rallied to his sup
port , nor does it take any acute
observation to discover that tlfe
cigarette evil has been almost en
tirely abolished among the boys
of the community. There have
been more cases where bojs have
been imprisoned with hardened
criminals. The man who used to
sell cigarettes or liquor to the
boys have found it unprofitable
as well as dangerous ; instead of
regarding the law and courts with
terror the wavward vouuirstcrs
have learned to know the Judge
as a refuge when they are tempt
ed , a friend when they arc in trou
ble , and to recognize their own
obligation to observe the law and
enforce it. Waiving any ques
tion of moral values , the Juvenile
Court has been the best invest
ment the city or state has ever
made , and the returns are due to
the Judge wljo has managed it.
Every principle in the public
schools has declared the value of
the court under Judge Brown's
administration. Every man , wo
man and child who has had oc
casion to see the workings of the
court , knows it is a powerful
agency for the moral uplift of
childhood of the whole commun
ity.
Salt Lake Daily Reporter Judge
Willis Brown is doing more real
good than any six ministers in
Salt Lake , " said Kcv. Benjamin
Young of the first M. E. Church ,
yesterday afternoon. "He is
getting at the bottom of things
and doing what is almost impos
sible for the ministers to do. He
is finding out just how our boys
live , , wh , t temptations are thrown
in their way , who it is that tempts
them , who is responsible for their
every act , and he is likewise find
ing away of bringing about good
results in each case without a
moments delay , " What Dr.
Young has said , otders have said
iu substance.
Hon. Williard Hanson , Couuty
Attorney , Salt Lake City Judge
Brown was chairmen of the Juv
enile Court Committee and draft
ed and largely secured the pas
sage of our juvenile court and
other bills connected with the
juvenile court word , Judge Brown
is in my opinion one of the ablest
juvenile court workers in the Un
ion and had it not , been for his
efforts und work in this commun
ity we would not have had any
juvenile court law.
TIMBER CONSERVATION.
Studying Alelliods of Utilization for
Greatest Economy and Profit ,
The future development of the
lumber industry in this country
lies in the direction of a closer
utilization of forest products.
Both foresters and practical
lumbermen now agree : on this
point.
Just what can be done in this
is well ilulstratcd in the opera
tions nt the mill of Great South
ern Lumber Company , which has
just reopened its plntu at Hoga-
lu a , I.ousiai'd , HI response to
the increased demand Jor lumber
after the recent slump in business.
This is perhaps the largest saw
mill in the United Stales , if not
in the world , and is capable of
turning out the enormous amount
of 600,000 feet of sa\\n lumber
board measure per day. A read
er can get a fair idea , ef this
quantity of lumber when he h
told that its output is enough to
build a little town of 40 houses ,
along with a good-sized church
and a school house everv day.
This company wab quick to
grasp the significance of the rap
id depiction of timber rcsourscs.
Last year it began a co operative
investigation in wood utilization
with the United States Forest Ser
vice and arrangements have just
been completed for a renewal of
the experiments. The work will
be along practical lines and will
be aimed to secure a closer utili
sation of the products of the
southern lumber comtnills and
at the same time produce a
margin of profit in exress
of that obtained by the methods
which are now practiced.
The field for work along this
line is broad. It is well known
that the superior grades of lum
ber are obtained from old mature
trees , provided they arc weaken
ed by decay or other influences.
In other words , a thousand feet
board measure of lumber , sawed
from a tree two feet in diameter ,
costs less and is worth more than
a thousand feet sawed from a
tree only eight inches in diamet
er. Moreover , timber cut from
young trees usually contains a
large amount of sapwood. If
ties , poles , etc , , are cut from such
material , they will decay far
more rapidly than if cut from
heart wood It is not good busi
ness policy , however , in a great
many cases to saw the most val
uable timber into commodities
which are relatively low in cost ,
such as ties and poles It is the
intention therefore , of the com
pany to find out just what size
and clascs of timber can be best
utilized for the cheaper commod
ities when given a preservative
treatment.
To this end a careful study
will be made to ascertain the
amount and value of the products
sawed from trees of different
sizes and just how each can be
best utilized BO as to secure great
est economy and profit. For ex
ample , can a tree eight inches in
diameter be best utilized for ties
or for flooring , and how will the
profits compare if treated with

those sold untreated ? It seems
reasonable to suppose that the
profits derived from the sale of
treated timber will exceed those
of untreated timber.
Moreover , greater use of chem
ically preserved wood will doubt
less result in that wood giving-
greater life in service. Hence ,
the amount of timber cut annual
ly in the United States , simply.in
replace that which has decayed
will be materially decreased , anil
and a further conservation of
forest resources will result. Re
cent estimates by the forest ser
vice place this reduction at 10
per cent of the lotal timber cut
The practical benefits of thos
experiments and of the investiga
tions for the utilization of saw
mill waste are at once appar
eat.
The "Divorce Evil. "
It is always considered goot
form to inveigh against the
"divorce evil. " Ministers of the
gospel frequently choose this ,
subject for pulpiteering , am
lecturers , judgesetc. . , use i
freely for moralizing purposes
That there is a "divorce evil'
and that it is a serious problen
in sucial economics as well as it
moral philosophy , cannot be
denied as reasonable beings. I
is frequently charged that di
vorce is more easily obtained in
this country than in any othe
civilized nation. This also may
be true. But back of this un
fortunate condition there is more
than what theorists delight to
term "contempt for the marriage
relation "
American men and women
differ little temperamental ! ,
from their brothers and sister
elsewhere. Probably if it wer
brought to a c'ose ' analysis th
American men would be fount
more gallant and considerat
than the men of Europe. Ameri
can women are better educatet
and enjoy a greater degree o
personal freedom than any othe
JUST
THE REAL

A'omen in Christendom. If ,
here fore , the marriage relation
s less cherished in America than
Isewhere there must he some
cason which has been slightly
ouchetl upon heretofore. It is
trangc indeed that the social
philosophers who habitually de
nounce the "divorce evil" should
Hit take the logical step toward
i solution of the matrimonial
iroblem. There is no "divorce
evil" that is not attributable
lircctly to the marriage evil.
Yet this marriage evil is gener-
illy referred to as something that
las developed after the wedding
ceremony , instead of havingex -
sted before it. It seems to be a
rather tender subject among the
noralisls , who either evade it
altogether or approach it halt-
ngly and make a hasty retreat.
Perhaps the ministers some of
them -feel a prick of conscience
when they arc charged with fre
quent complicity in fostering the
" evil "
"marriage ,
In general terms and subject
to the usual rule of exceptions ,
it may be said that hasty and
injudicious marriages are the
direct cause of most divorces.
In this day the spirit of adven-
true prevades the most sacred
relationship of man and woman.
Almost every newspaper records
the "romance" of some silly and
irresponsible couple who meet on
Sunday and marry on Tuesday ,
It is quite the popular thing to
applaud these marriages and
laugh at the youthful elopers
who successfully evade parental
opposition. And many ministers
and petty judges aid these viola
tors of the higher law by per
forming the wedding co.remony
for practically all comers ,
whether justified or not. In
Kansas City , Kas. , a few days
ago a magistrate united in mar
riage a white woman and a
Chinaman. In a Missouri town
a boy and a girl were marriei
"on a dare , " and the officiating
minister knew it. The marriage
of middle-aged men to school
girls is common , and frequently
parents give their consent for
marriages of mere boys and
girls. In. fact the instances ol
misalliances of various kinds
could be elaborated indefinitely ,
Under such circumstances it
would be passing strange if we
did not have a "divorce evil. " In
other civilized countries , espe
cially among the Catholic nations
of Europe , marriage is safe
guarded , and it follows that
when marriage is safeguarded
there are fewer matrimonial
wrecks. If those who inveige so
solemnly against the "divorce
evil" would devote themselves
assiduously to correcting the
present slipshod system ol
promiscuous and frivolus mar
riages , society would be benefited
by their preachments. Until the
process of reasoning is reversed ,
however , mistnated couples will
keep on marrying first and get
ting acquainted and divorces
afterward , and there will always
be adivorce evil. " Exchange.
I have now arranged to take
care of a general collection busi
ness , having secured a competent
clerk and stenographer , and -.11
collections will receive prompt
and energetic attention.
