the United States against the Regular Army and Navy Union of the United He decided that bylaws of organisations must always give way to the laws of the land and that bylaws are of binding force between the mem bers until they are called in question in which case the courts determine the va- lidity of these bylaws The complaint was that the Regular Army and Navy Union was incorporated- by act ef Congress and that it had subor- dinate branches called garrisons who received their charters from the national body and were subject to its constitu- tion and bylaws It is declared that the William F Barry Garrison was one of the subordinate garrisons and that on September 27 1909 at a special meeting K motion was adopted to secede from the Army and Navy Union and Join the Reg ular Army and Navy Union At this meet ing it Is claimed the Barry Garrison mem bers were into the new organi- zation thereby ceasing to be members- of the other garrison The complainant contends it was the duty of these members to turn over nil the money of their garrison to the Army and Navy Union which they however declined to de The Army anti Navy Union In consequence asked the court that the Regular Army and Navy Union bar restrained and that the Barry Garri- son be required to turn over its funds to the Army and Navy Union Chief Justice Clabaugh stated that a higher body cannot confiscate the prop erty of one of its subordinate orders or garrisons and that the complainant hiss no right to continents the property of Barry Garrison by requiring It to turn over its funds to it Wolf Rosen berg appeared as

International Society To Standardize Experimental Work Generally nail Discuss Subjeotn of Mutual Interest Te standardise experimental work aen- eraBy so that the methods of investiga- tion in each

Other countries represented m the association are Germany France Austria Italy and Swltaertand the leading countries in the practice of scientific forestry A part of the plan of cooperation te the mutual exchange and dteeusston of forest publications and the conventions of the association will give opportunity- for the discussion of international problem for personal contact with for- eign and for promoting the feel- ing of fellowship among workers in a common field Official recognition of the progress achieved to experimental forestry in the United State was made in the invitation extended to the Forester by Dr A Buhter director of the Royal Wurttemberg Forest Testing Laboratory at Tubingen Ger- many In his letter Dr Bahier said In inviting the United State to Join the I am but expressing the gen- eral desire You have accomplished so much and have taken so capable a bold on Investigations that the work of the association would be furthered by your membership The Foresters letter of acceptance ap- proved by the Secretary et Agriculture te in part as follows The Forest Service has always been deeply interested in the admirable work of the European experiment stations which have been such an Important fac- tor In raising forestry from pure empirics to the position of a true science Our own problems though exceedingly vital to us have until recently had only a local interest and for this reason I thought best to refrain from participat- ing in the general scientific work of the international association Now however a number of woodtesting stations are well organised other laboratory work te well under way and the 1270011090 acres of forest reserves with whose management rLs Forest Service is charged offer op- portunities for many investigations which may contribute to the progress of our science- I shall therefore be very glad to have the Forest Service of the United States Department of Agriculture become a member of the International Association of Forest Experiment Stations and promise a active participation la Its work as circumstances will permit Jlloclcru Maccabees of District An event of special interest to the Knights of the Modern

by Chief Justice Clabaugh yester-day in the case of the Army and NavyUnion of the United States against theRegular Army and Navy Union of theUnited He decided that bylawsof organisations must always give wayto the laws of the land and that bylawsare of binding force between the members until they are called in question inwhich case the courts determine the va-lidity of these bylaws

The complaint was that the RegularArmy and Navy Union was incorporated-by act ef Congress and that it had subor-dinate branches called garrisons whoreceived their charters from the nationalbody and were subject to its constitu-tion and bylaws It is declared that theWilliam F Barry Garrison was one ofthe subordinate garrisons and that onSeptember 27 1909 at a special meeting Kmotion was adopted to secede from theArmy and Navy Union and Join the Regular Army and Navy Union At this meeting it Is claimed the Barry Garrison members were into the new organi-zation thereby ceasing to be members-of the other garrison

The complainant contends it was theduty of these members to turn over nilthe money of their garrison to the Armyand Navy Union which they howeverdeclined to de The Army anti NavyUnion In consequence asked the courtthat the Regular Army and Navy Unionbar restrained and that the Barry Garri-son be required to turn over its fundsto the Army and Navy Union

Chief Justice Clabaugh stated that ahigher body cannot confiscate the property of one of its subordinate orders orgarrisons and that the complainant hissno right to continents the property ofBarry Garrison by requiring It to turnover its funds to it Wolf Rosenberg appeared as counsel for the defend

tional Association of Forest KxpertmentStation Other countries represented mthe association are Germany FranceAustria Italy and Swltaertandthe leading countries in the practice ofscientific forestry

A part of the plan of cooperation tethe mutual exchange and dteeusston offorest publications and the conventionsof the association will give opportunity-for the discussion of internationalproblem for personal contact with for-eign and for promoting the feel-ing of fellowship among workers in acommon field

Official recognition of the progressachieved to experimental forestry in theUnited State was made in the invitationextended to the Forester by Dr A Buhterdirector of the Royal Wurttemberg ForestTesting Laboratory at Tubingen Ger-many In his letter Dr Bahier said Ininviting the United State to Join the

I am but expressing the gen-

eral desire You have accomplished somuch and have taken so capable a boldon Investigations that the work of theassociation would be furthered by yourmembership

The Foresters letter of acceptance ap-proved by the Secretary et Agriculturete in part as follows

The Forest Service has always beendeeply interested in the admirable workof the European experiment stationswhich have been such an Important fac-tor In raising forestry from pure empiricsto the position of a true science Ourown problems though exceedingly vitalto us have until recently had only a

local interest and for this reasonI thought best to refrain from participat-ing in the general scientific work of theinternational association Now howevera number of woodtesting stations arewell organised other laboratory work tewell under way and the 1270011090 acres offorest reserves with whose managementrLs Forest Service is charged offer op-portunities for many investigations whichmay contribute to the progress of ourscience-

I shall therefore be very glad to havethe Forest Service of the United StatesDepartment of Agriculture become amember of the International Associationof Forest Experiment Stations andpromise a active participation la Itswork as circumstances will permit
