evenly matched and had it not been for carelessness in passing the score would in all probability have been decidedly different at the beginning of the game the home team was taken off its feet by the fierce attack of the visitors and after a few minutes of play the score was twelve to two in swarth more's favor after a short rest the brown and white team came back and played the visitors to a standstill the half ending with the score thirteen to ten in favor of swarthmore early in the second half lehigh took the lead and from then on till nearly the close of the contest the outcome was

and american condi tions in forestry his subject another very interesting lecture on forestry was given by prof roth of the university of michi gan who occupies the chair of for estry at that place his subject european and american condi tions in forestry was very capa bly treated and was supplemented by lantern slides showing clearly some of the conditions that exist in opening the lecture prof roth expressed his pleasure in find ing lehigh to be taking a leading stand in one of the most important national questions of the day and he emphasized the fact that the keystone state is also in the van guard of this movement the first views showed different sections of the famous black forest of wur temburg and baden and the enor mous development of forestry con ditions in the whole of germany large portions of this forest have been planted by the government and for that purpose there are many nurseries in germany that are tended as carefully as the most valuable hot-houses from an economic standpoint it was pointed out that forestry is an important factor instances were given where land rented for agri cultral purposes yielded 2.50 an acre and there was even trouble in collecting that whereas when the same land was given over to for estry each acre yielded 10 net over and above expenses one of the pride stands in the black forest was worth 2600 per acre for the timber alone later views showed the well kept roads through german forests which made the forests easily ac cessible the thick growth of well kept forests keeps them flourishing without extra work in that the ex clusion of the sun and wind keeps the ground moist and fertile the views of american forests were shown in such an order that no one could help seeing the enor mous contrast between neglected forests and forests in those parts of the country where some effort had been made to maintain them the forestry question has taken such a hold in portions of the country that nurseries are kept and trees are given away prof roth then spoke a little for the lumbermen who have been se verely criticized for the destruction of some forests whereas the de struction has been due to fire start ed by some slight carelessness the lumbering has been made continued on third page the brown and white lehigh university south bethlehem pa tuesday february 14 1911 no 30 dr roth lectures on forestry lehigh loses at
