more than $34,000 through the means
of the agencies.
All of the agencies have central of--

AERONAUTICAL CLASSES
INCREASE ENROLLMENT
Professor Felix W. Pawlowski, of
the Aeronautical Engineering depart-
ment, announces an increase of the
number of students enrolled in his
department. There are now 140 stu-
dents in the department as compared
to the 80 pf last year.
"It is very gratifying to me to ex-
perience such an increase in this
course," said Prof. Pawlowski, "but
I am hardly able to explain it. It is
a matter of conjecture for the most
part. It may have something to do
with a new aeronautical boom. It
may mean the birth of a new year in
the American aeronautical industry.
Again, it might indicate that the Aero-
nautical industry of the United States
is to develop in Michigan. It is impos-
sibIe to tell how long it will last, but
it is a welcome development."
7000 MILE TRIP
PLANNED BY FLIER
Dieudonne Coste.
Famous French aviator, hopes to
make a successul four-stage flight
from Paris to Buenos Aires, a distance
of 7,000 miles.

"Lumbermen are beginning to be-
lieve in forestry," George Duthe, '08,
superintendent of the Black Hills Na-
tional Forest declared in a talk before
the forestry club Wednesday. "When
the forester can show the lumberman
how to handle land on a reforestra-
tion basis, the lumberman will invest
in a trained forester."
Duthe, who was one time president
of the forestry club, told of his log-
ging experiences near Rapid City in
the district where President Coolidge,
spent the summer. The Black Hills
forest was the first ,forest in which
regulated cutting was done, Duthe
said. The system of controlling the
amount of wood cut was started in
1898.
Speaking of forest protection, Mr.
Duthe said that the Black Hills has a
high fire hazard with about a hundred
fires a year caused by both lightning
and incendiary reasons. The loss and
the number of fires is decreasing
steadily however, he stated. Four
look-out stations are maintained in the
district.
Prof. Donald M. Mathews of the
forestry school also gave a talk on his
experiences in the tropics. He told of
organizing a forestry school in the
Philippines to train the natives to
carry on the forestry work. When
he was first sent to the Philippines,
Mathews had to explore the island to
find out what trees grew there.
The governor of North Borneo in-
vited Mathews to Borneo as chief
forester for the British government in
the colony. Mathews told of amusing
incidents on the islands and how he
had a hand in keeping a Japanese
rubber company from purchasing
much land for, commercial purposes.
