Damages For Merchantable

Young Growth Is Precedent

GOVERNMENT IS LEGAL VICTOR

Establishes Expectation Value of

Timber In South Dakota Case FoFirst Time In America Though Practice Is Common In European Forestryand Insurance

In nn action for fire trespass on theBlack Hills untlonul forest brought bythe United States against the MissouriIllvcr nUll Northwestern railroad tinJury has awarded damages to the government not only for the loss of marIchnutablo Umber but also for the de-

struction¬

growthThisIs regarded ns establishing an

Important precedent So far ns Iis

known at the department of ngrlculture It Is the first time that any courthas recognized what foresters call tinexpectation value of young growth

as furnishing n basis for the award ofdamages

Hard to Prove LossThe difficulty In tho way of such nn

awnrd In the past has been that therewas no way to prove to the satisfac-tion

¬

of the courts the money value ofthe loss suffered

The nwnrd In the South Dakota castfollowed the presentation of evidenceas to the cost of work In reforestingwhich the government Is actually do-

Ing In the niack hills The amountclaimed for the young growth burnedwas 512 an nero and the claim underthis Item was allowed In full by theJury The total amount of damagesclaimed was 37288 of which 2

BIBLE SILENCED OBJECTORS

In My Fathers House Are ManyApartments Quoted Pastor andCongregation Abandoned CriticismEight Room Flat Only Inconvenienceto Butchers Boy Who Has to Climb

In Greenwich village the quaintestsection of New York city there Is alittle red brick church Upon Imobroad stone steps of tho church isgenerally n group of children withtheir playthings Not InfrequentlyJust inside the doors of the church isanother pile of toys roper skates andperhaps cushions for use upon thostone steps-

Occasionally a grocers boy or abutchers boy approaches the steps ofthe church but ho does not pass byInstead he enters the front doors andascends by n stairway to the east thatusually In churches lends to the gal ¬

leryAndthen the secret Is out Tho

home of tho children and of theirparents ns well Is In the church Tothe Rev Ezra T Sanford pastor ofthe North Baptist church belongs thecredit for this solution of one of thoproblems of the downtown churcheswhose finances are necessarily re-

stricted by the movement of populn ¬

tion from the old residence districtsConverted Gallery Into Home

Pastor Sanford surveyed the largegallery of the church auditorium proper and decided It was too much to ex-

pect¬

In a downtown church that It

would ever he tilled by the congrega ¬

tion So he cut the gallery In two timid

moved the rein wall forward eighteenfeet This gave him a space runningfor seventylive feet across the front oftho church and eighteen feet deep Inthis he built an eight room apartmentwhere he now lives with his wifethree children and two young relativesof Mrs Sanford-

I think I have a china closet tlnrIs unique among the china closets uwomen said Mrs Sanford When I

cannot go to church and I am lonelyI go Into the dining room nail hew myhusband preaching through till chint1closet and that Is company for mo-

On the level of the gallery In theSanford apartment arc kitchen hathlining room two large bedrooms andtwo living rooms A stairway leads tothe former attic of the church and thebell tower In the nttlc Pastor Sunford Uua built two large bedrooms onefor his son now a sophomore In Car ¬

nell and one for his daughter RuthOne drawback which Mrs Snnford

who Is n practical housekeeper findswith her church apartment Is thatunlike her neighbors on the oppositesloe of the street she has no dumbwaiter Grocers and butchers musttramp through tho main door of thechurch and up the two flights of gill ¬

lery stairs with her suppliesWhen I wanted to have this apart ¬

ment built said Mr Sanford therewas considerable opposition in thechurch They seemed to think It wasbeneath the dignity of a church tohave living rooms for Its pastor In It

Quoted Words of JesusBut I quoted to them tho words of

Jesus when ho fed tho multitude outho loaves and fishes Gather up thefragments let nothing be lost AndI pointed out to them that hero in themidst of downtown New York was achurch that needed conservation if itwere to endure

But some of them wore still ob-

durate Then I showed them a newreading for an old text

In my Fathers house are manyapartments I said to them Theythought I was scoffing and said thatJesus hadnt meant to build flats In achurch I answered them that In thetemple at Jerusalem there were manylittle apartments for tho priests andrabbis and that Christ hall been re-ferrIng to tho temple and of courseby analogy to heaven when ho saidthat there wero many mansions or asIt may bo translated apartments Inhis Fathers house After that therewas no moro trouble

A year ago little Anna had measlesThen came a problem for tho healthauthorities At one time it wasthought that the whole church wouldbo quarantined and services ended fora time but when it was realized thatthe church apartment could bo completely Isolated from tho church properonly tho apartment was quarantined
