Timber Haste
In the past (|uarter century, much
has been published from the pens of
deep thinking men warning the pub-
lic of the dangers we are setting up
for flit iii generations by necessary
consumption and criminal wasting of
loro.-ts without ample replacement.
Some results have been obtained by
this continual preaching, but the dan-
ger has not been averted, only post-
poned. Present estimates are that
with a continuance of present ratio of
trees cut and de troyed against new
timber growth, North America will
be almost treele- in fifty years from
now. Great improvements in refores-
tation have been made by frightened

max ploeglr fatally
iiuht in coi lislon
Dinner was ready, the cake had
been baked and was resplendent
with its sixty-nine candles, await-
ing the arrival of "the guest ,>f
honor.' That guest, however, was
never to arrive, as Max Ploeger Sr.
on his birthday Saturday sustained
fatal injuries resultng in death
Sunday morning.
Mr. and Mrs. Max Ploeger Jr. of
4524 Worth street Saturday could
not understand why Mr. I'loeger's
father, for whom th«< birthday
party was being given, did not ar-
rive. They waited and waited.
Mr. and Mrs. Max Ploeger Sr. of
HOC Elsbcth street had started from
their homt. in ample time. At 4:M0
p. m. Saturday and they were head-
ed toward his son's home In their
auto. As they nearcd the inter-
section of Zang Boulevard and Heck-
ley avenue there was the crash of
colliding automobiles. Mr. Ploeger
was thrown to the pavement. Ten
hours later he was dead at Baylor
Hospital with a fractured skull.
The candles 'were never lighted,
the cake was never eaten, there was
no birthday party.
Instead there will be a funeral
services at p. m. Monday at the
home. Instead there will be a fu-
neral ernion preachedi by Dr. B.
P. Fullcrton, pastor of the City
Temple Presbyterian Church. And
those who were to have attended
the party will follow a funeral cor-
teg. to the Oakland Cemetery.
Mr. Ploeger came to Dallas from
Bastrop County when 17 years old,
started as delivery boy for a gro-
cery store and, after saving his
money, bought his own store. It was
on Elm street between St. Paul
and Ervav streets until he retired
several years ago.
Mr. Ploeger was married forty-
two years ago, his first, wif.. dying
in 1H'.)4. He remarried three years
later. He is survived by his wife,
three sons and four grandchildren.
His sons are Max, Leon G. and

will ambasador extraordinary, Presi-
dent Coolidge will leave Washington
next Frday on a trip to Havana,
which, he hopes, will demonstrate
the friendly feeling of the I nited
States for all the republics of th«
western hemisphere.
The immediate purpose of th«
journey, the first outside of the
United States for Mr. Coolidge since
he became president, is to inake
the opening address of the Fan-
American congress. In the back-
ground. however, is the desire to
impress upon the representatives of
more than 20 nations who will greet
him that the United States holds
no imperialistic designs in its
lationship with the countries
of the Rio Grande.
In addition to two members of his
cabinet—Secretaries Kellogg and
AX'ilbur—the president will be sur-
rounded at Havana by a delegation
of Men whose names have for years
been well known in American pub-
lic life The delegation, which will
