Eastern Canada was a forest, and the first thing to do was to clear land to grow wheat, potatoes and ha . The forest was the enemy to be routed. To ay, the people of Can- ada are {waking to the fact that the forest they once regarded as an enemy is Canada's second best asset, and furthermore, that it is a rapidly- disappearing asset. White pine was once the most commonly, used lumber in this country, and a generation ` ago it was comparatively plentiful and cheap. Not so today. The original stands of white pine are nearly gone. For saw-mill timber we now depend largely on spruce and fir. Seventy per cent. of the timber in Canada of saw-mill qua ity stands in British Columbia! Eastern Canada, once a forest, is now buying lumber from the Pacific slope.

This is mentioned as a reminder to Simcoe County Council` to get early to work on this year s exhibit. A good start `was made in 1927 but there is decided room for improvement. The Royal Victoria Hospital Board is indeed fortunate in having within a year two such splendid donations as those by Messrs. McCar- thy and Wright for the nurses residence. Much _of the success of a hospital depends on the qual- 1 ity of service rendered by the nursing staff and 1 gifts such as these, adding greatly to the com- j fort, happiness and efficiency of the nurses, are making a very fine contribution to the work of the Royal Victoria. The thanks of the directors, already expressed to Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Wright, are heartily endorsed by the large num- ber of people in Barrie and district who are in- terested in the welfare of this institution. In promoting the Just Kids Safety Club the Toronto Globe has undertaken a very praiseworthy work. The need of careful driv- ing has been often preached to the motorist, and properly so, but no matter how alert a driv- er may be he often has narrow escapes from serious accidents through` children running out on the streets, carelessly or in the excitement of play, _so it is afine thing to impress upon the little folk to remember to look up and down before you cross the street. In tender years they readily acquire habits and the general adoption of the Gl-obe s juvenile slogan will doubtless mean the saving of manyelives.

The accessible forests of Northern Canada today are chiefly valuable as sources of spruce pulp for paper-making. How long they will last, subjected to the present rate of exploitation plus the ravages of forest fire, has been calcu- lated, and the resulting figure is not at all reas- suring. ln twenty-five years, unless Canada wakes up soon, her forest industries, her lum- ber mills and paper mills and wood-working factories, will be closed up. Because her forests will be gone. . n....,..4:.... Emmet \l\/nnlz Milk aH*PnHnn tn this E DUVVII. LU;-ct wvuvvuunv as there is in Camada.

If we can prevent forest fires, the natural growth from year to year, forestry men say, will provide for the demands of axe and saw. The Canadian people as a whole must realize the great and in- creasing value of the forests of Canada which remain, and each individual must do his or her best to prevent forestfires. Carefulness and good management will save Canada's forest industries in perpetuity. "Ans r`1....~ elaum.-+ Minictpr nf the Interior.
