Five hundred. thousand trees gre to be planted throughout Italy, and each is to have a tablet ‘bearing the name of a soldier killed in the war. Trees: throughout history have been the natural emblems of strength and courage, and it was a treeâ€"the laurelâ€"that twentyâ€"five hun dred years ago gave the wreath that crowned the victor in the Greek Olym pic games. .

Timming can thank the Medical Health Officer, Dr. Moore, that neither such an order nor such an epidemic need be feared here. Some years ago Dr. Moore‘s fore sight and interest resulted in a chloriâ€" nating plant being installed here. . It may not add to the flavour, but it does add to the safety.
