"Curran, the greatest wood runner of
the times," was the characterization
given by Prof. Filibert Roth, of the
forestry department, to H. M. Curran,
Brazil, here, in the interests of Brazil
and the United States, to introduce
tropical woods in an effort to relieve
the shortage of our scarce hardwoods
and to open up a new market for South
American woods.
Mr. Curran since his graduation
from Cornell has distinguished himself
in his undertakings both in the Philip-
pines and in South America, where he
has been engaged for many years ex-
ploring the great forests of that con-
tinent.
woods. These industries have taken
a keen interest in his woods and are
at the present time conducting experi-
ments to determine their their
utility, especialy in the making of au-
tomobile bodies and wheels.
In speaking of the lumbering condi-
tions in Brazil, Mr. Curran said, "They
compare with those in the Appalacians
in this country." Here there may be
cut out 10 species of wood per acre,
while in Brazil there are found as
many as 28 species in an equal area.
At the present time the land in Brazil
is cleared much in the same manner as
that formerly employed in the pioneer
days of the United States, when the
woods were burned because that was
the easiest means of disposal. Not so
long ago in Brazil some of the forests
were burned to make way for railroads,
et the fuel for the locomotives and ties

Important to U. S.
"His mission here is important," said
Professor Roth, "for its bearing on
the welfare of this country and that
of Brazil. We have already begun to
feel the acute shortage of many such
hardwoods as oak, hickory and maple,
so universally employed in the manu-
facture of furniture, interior finishing,
and automobile wheels, bodies and so
on. By the introduction of a number
-of hardwood timbers to replace the
woods which are fast becoming ex-
ceedingly scarce in the United States,
the shortage will be relieved. Further,
Mr. Curran will serve Brazil in open-
ing :up a market for its huge resources
of timber, and in making more profit-
able and rapid the clearing of the lands
for agricultural purposes, where coffee,
cocao products and bananas can be
produced in large quantities."
Industries Interested
During his stay in the United States,
Mr. Curran has spent several months
visiting manufacturers in different
parts of the country endeavoring to
interest them in the use of tropical

DAILY CQ MPILES
NE WSINDEX FILE
A complete index of all news printed
in The Daily during the past semester:
has just been completed by members
of The Daily staff and placed in the
editorial offices. The index, which was
built up day by day in the form of a
card index and typed into book form
at the close of the esmester, contains
approximately, 2500 references, and
records every news story published
which pertained to the University or
the University people.
In this way facts printed at an
earlier date may be checked up with
a minimum of time and effort. While
tried only as an experiment, the index
has )been found satisfactory and will
be continued during the remainder of
the year, being kept up-to-date in the
card-index form.

Constantinople, Jan. 30.-Simko, the
insurgent Persian leader, and his army
are masters of Tabriz and threaten the
overthrow oA- the Persian government,
according to recent advices. He has
succeeded in increasing the number of
hid followers 'to 5,000 and is operating
successfully against the Persian regu-
lar forces in the district of Urmia.
The country is* reported to be in-
fested with his brigands, who are rob-
bing and killing. Travel in Persia is
said to be unsafe. The Persian gen-
darmie, which is being reorganized
by Swedish instructors, has been un-
able to check the insurgents and the
whole country has fallen into a state
of chaos and confusion.,

While reports of a local "flu" or in-
fluenza epidemic are no doubt eyag-
gerated, it is true that there are an un-
usually high number of cases reported
in Ann Arbor. "It is true that we are
having more cases than usual this
year," reports the University Health
service, "and it is well for students to
be on their guard. A number of cases
of grippe have been found, although
the number of such cases is always
high at this time of year."
A rumor to the effect that a great
many'"flu"cases were found in one
fraternity house seems to be without
foundation, according to word from the
contagious ward of the University hos-
pital. .

The astonishing things about our clothing are numerous.
First, they are absolutely up-to-the-minute in style, they
express the good taste and individuality for which college
men seek. Then, the fabrics, the most glorious array of
them we have ever had, tweeds, whipcords, finished and
unfinished worsteds, imported homespuns and fancy cash-
meres, anything in fact you desire.
The workmanship and tailoring of our garments are
supreme, they are made by the greatest tailors in the
country. They have quality built right into them.
And last but not least is the prices we have attached to
them. You will admit they are astoundingly low, much
lower in fact than you will find elsewhere.

TRENGTH OF PURPOSE
How much Determination have you? How much control do you
have over yourself?
Perhaps you can not truthfully answer these questions the way
you would like. The best discipline for this sort of thing is found
in the practice of thrift. The habit is easy to form when you open
