DePauw Daily SCHEDULE OF MATCHES TRAIL RANGERS HOCKEY ‘‘Chief Wilson, of South Poreuâ€" pine, read an interesting paper on fire prevention and protection as applied to public buildings. Dealing chiefly with hospitals and schools, Chief Wilâ€" son urged the necessity of regular inâ€" spection of all buildings and fire apâ€" pliances, instructions to, those in charge and regular fire drills. In gonâ€" nection with> this address, Chief Mathieson, of Cobalt, said that a new kind of mattress for hospitals was being made at New Liskeard and it was expected that a sample would be delivered for the corvention, but it had been delayed. He described the way they are built, with four handles so that they can beé lifted with the patient and bedding and carried ‘out."‘‘ The patient in ithe asylum sat fishâ€" ing over a flower bed. _ An affable visitor inquired: â€" ‘‘How many have you caught?"‘ In is report of the receent convenâ€" tion of the Temiskaming Firemen‘s Association at Hatleyhury, last week‘s issue of ‘The Hailceyburian |says :â€"â€" ‘"Fire Cliie?

What a vast number of people in the busy cities long for the countryâ€" side and its charm? What a erowd of country !people seek the bustle and the life of the city? The appreciaâ€" tion of the country given by the ocâ€" casional visitor from the city is only equalled by the enthusiasm with which rural folks enjoy an oceasional trip to the city. The fact seems to be that mankind is rather slow to appreciate the everyday surroundings. The inâ€" terest and the busy life of the city lose their charm, and the peace of the countryside becomes a tale that is told. The advantages become a matâ€" ter that is accepted without thought and the disadvantages loom large. It is certain that men who live the greater part of their lives within call of the forest, for example, forget oftentimes the wonders and the beauâ€" ties of the bush. An occeasional reâ€" minder is needed for the proper apâ€" preciation of the natural beauty= of the forest that is close. Such a reâ€" minder is given by an editorial writâ€" ten by the late Mr. Wright, editomal writer for The Toledo Blade. ‘Mr. Wright‘s editorial, as reproduced reâ€" cently in The Pas Herald, is as folâ€" lows :â€" Another important item before the meeting on Thursday evening was the report of the local superintendent. This report will ‘be found elsewhere in this issue. THE BEAUTV OF TRE WOODS AND THE CALL GFTHE NORTH The Peace and Charm of the Forests in Every Season of the Year. ‘*What is it in the Northland strain that makes us a people of the forests? Perhkaps it is a spiritual throwâ€"back to the ages when we gave trees myâ€" steriouns Godâ€"like attributes. This we did because of all the children of Naâ€" ture in the lands of the Aretic winds, trees alone gave us shelter and warmth. < As â€"we built the naves of our cathedrals in the semblance of the arched forest and fashioned their pilâ€" lars like the trunks of oaks, thus also we took to ourselves the spirit of the woods in an inborn love of the woodâ€" land such as some hamadryad might have stirred in pagan breast. ‘‘We of the Northland strain find: peace in the forests. **We go to the god of the wood to fetch his word to men.‘‘ Winter or summer if one be of the race, the woodland will arouse in the heart the sombre joyousness peculiar to the Saxon at his happiest, a spiritual sense of being part of it all. We fear the wood with a: priâ€" maeval instinet, but we love it beâ€" cause it was thence we ceame. ‘‘*Go into the woods in winter if you would test your northern heriâ€" tage.â€" Follow no seashore trail, stick to no road through fields and meadâ€" ows, but strike for the forest. Among the bare trees or amid the gladdest sight of winter, an evergreen copse, test yourself. If that silence, which always seems to forecast a tremendâ€" ous crash of sound that never comes, does not quicken your pulse or stir emotions you cannot understand, you are not a child of the Northmen. You come from those whe~â€"#followed the tropic seas, or threaded the desâ€" erts or lived in the jungle where the oak grows not and the pine is far aâ€" way. ‘ FORMER HAILEYBURY LAD # HEADS BOYS‘ PARLIAMENT ‘‘In the spring the forest has the joy of a child, in summer the glory of a beautiful woman, and all the wistfulness of the world in the autumn, but the woodland paths of winter are peopled with the lineage of mighty men.‘‘ _ The Haileyburian last week says :â€" ԤRonald Fredenburgh, of Perth, who was elected as Premier of the Older Boy:s‘ .Parliament. of Ontario and will take his seat in the House on Saturday, is a formert Haileybury boy, the nephew of Mr. and Mrs. 4. Fredenburgh, who were residents here for about fifteen years.
