ILVYK YOl' BLACK LLNCLS
LONDON, TYh., 2K~ Profess
Pickerton, preside nt of the London
\st:onomical Society, startled an au
dienee the other day by telling b's
hearers “you have black lungs."
“Black lungs," he said, “are due
t«» your living in London and the only
cure is to live in the country an<!
breathe pure air. London’s ‘black’ at
mosphere accounts for the apparent
lack of energy on the part of so many
Londoners."

Forester .J. 0. Van Hook thinks news
paper publishers of this section err
greatly in not going vigorously uf*e».
the oft-broached proposition of mak
ing paper of lodge polo pine. There i4
little commercial demand for this t*m
her and forests of it, he says, go t »
\> aste.
K :perts are said to have declaul
repeatedly that there are good pro
spects that the lodge pole pine wo i d
produce newsprint paper. The t;»t.'
forests are largely in lodge pole pine.
Mr. Van Hook, in a recent state
ment, urged the press of Montana to
combine and go into the question.
