CCC Camps Train Forest Fighting Crews

Twenty-seven fire towers and Civilian Conservation Corps camps, headquarters for forestfire fighting units, were listed today by Virgil M. Simmons, com. missioner of the Department of Conservation, as stations to which reports of forest fires should be made. :

Scattered through the wooded sections of the state where the hazard of forest fires is greatest, these stationg are subject to call day or night.

Trained observers are stationed in each of the towers and are equipped with instruments which enable them to locate fires within their visibility range Supblementing this force are trained fire-fighting crews in the CCC [camps and the organization of fire wardens formed throughout the wooded sections of the state. These crews have had special training in fighting forest fires, answering all calls day and night. 3

“ Due to the hazardous conditions prevailing—extended dry weather, low humidity, and the addition of early falling leaves to the vegetation already on the ground—requests have been made to rural mail carriers, state and county highway patrolmen and the game wardens to report all fires encountered in their travels. Instruction on where fire reports should be relayed, have been furnished telephone exchanges with. in the areas where the forest fire protection program is in effect.

- During the past two weeks a number of fires have occurred—many of them in the northern part of the state. Several thousand acres have been burned in this series of fires and a greater loss has been prevented only by the prompt action of the firefighting crews and volunteer helpers. Public cooperation in preventing fires, by not burning debris near wooded areas, by not throwing lighted matches or burning tobacco from motor vehicles and by taking every precaution with aid in the campaign to prevent greater economic losses from forest fires.

Modern Trends i in the : Christian Church :

Congregational And Christian Churches ‘ Rev. Chas. B. Lusk : Church union has always been a very interesting subject for discussion. I write from the view point of the Christian because I was originally with the Christian side of the union. The Christian Church had always favored Church union. They preached it, they prayed it, they talked it for more than a hundred years, but it takes something mors than talking, and preaching, and praying to bring about so important, and great a thing as the merging together of two bodied of believers in Christian religion. One preacher spoke more truth than he had supposed when ba said of himself: “I’d rather be a preacher because it is easier to preach than to practice.”

If churches are to be brought together as one, one important fact must not be overlooked. The Principleg (or platform) must be broad enough to receive people of all faiths, otherwise some would be left out. These Principles - may be worded differently but must be of such a breadth, Why this merger of Congregational and Christian Churches? The fact was revealed that the Principles of the two Churches were not only alike but were the same. After many friendly gestures, fourteen articles were pre. sented to the two bodies for their ratification. They were read one by one and decided in like manner by either group. The Congregationalists happened to meget first so were the first to decide in favor of the merger. ‘They hal met in their General Convention in May of 1929. The Christians met at Piqua, Ohio, in October of the same year and decided in like manner.

I do not believe that any such merger can be ‘“put on” but must be ‘“‘worked out,” so it is still being ‘‘worked out.”” The Congregationalists were a city church and the Christian a rural church, together they cover the field more thoroughly, yet each had a different problem from that of the other. The Christians knew little about the ‘“‘lndustrial Problem.”

The merger increased the opportunities in the Foreign field also to the extent that we have missionary ‘“‘centers and outposts”’ in about twelve different nations of the world. The name, the sweetest thing on earth to most people and which we must be willing to sacrifice before real merger can be effected. Congregational Christian wag decided upon as the denominational name for the present. Each local church has the privilege of retaining its own local church name or use the denominational name, Congregational Christian. The- publications were merged by using a part of both. The church Papers, The Congregationlist and the Herald of Gospel Liberty, both. holding g significant place because of being the oldest of religious journals, wege merged as one and now are published under the name of “The Advance.”

The delegates to this very important convention held at Piqua, Ohio, in October 1929, and the representatives of the Congregational Church, did not realize the significance of this conven. tion until apprized of this fact by the Rector of the HBpiscopalean church of that city. The daily paper carried his articles and very bold headlines announced the fact. He said: “They Are Making History, The iFirst Two De. nominations in The United States of America To Make Such A Venture.”” How far the uniting of churches will reach we cannot tell. Only locally have other

churches united and that for the 'benetlt of their own particular community or territory. } However many or few churches ‘may unite. The supreme purpose prompting the merging must not be for “economy,” not to become a larger denomination, but by uniting our funds and our efforts we may do a greater service for our Master.

Deer Provide Thrills For Many Hoosiers

~ Glimpses of deer along the highways and in wooded areas are providing new thrills for many Hoosiers this autumn, Virgil M. Simmons, commissioner of the Department of Conservation, announced today. Hardly a day passes that a report is not received of one or more deer being seen in the southern part of the state. g

It is estimated that there are now approximately four hundred deer at large in Indiana, as a result of the liberations made by the Department of Conservation during the past several years. There is no open season on deer in Indiana and persons molesting the deer are subject to severe penalties.

The American Legion Auxiliary will hold their regular meeting at their hall Monday evening,
