This should havex~conveyed its lesâ€" son, but unfortunately'it has not done so; therefore nature‘s giftsg are still vi¢ewed by most of us from theâ€"aspect of supply and «demand and conseâ€" quently‘ utility, posterity and beauty become subordinate to that rigid law of ecofromics in which sentlment holds no place while we are ahle to total our standing timbers and forests in bilâ€" lions of feet,~or choose a camp fire practically anywhere within our borâ€" ders, I be considered sacrilege to destroy a single tree and back of that preservâ€" ing sentiment lies well directed eduâ€" cation which we, as a nation, might well profitably follow. In the world‘s history it has ever been a feature that Nature‘s gift be ruthlessly destroyed, leaving posteriâ€" ty to practise conservation with the remaining fragments; as witness the wanton destruction of our national and historiec animals, the remnants of which are now cared for in our game preserves. gentmxent in Europe is the greatâ€" est ally of Forest Protection, for the rare visits of the general public to the forests are so enjoyed that it would Foreign countries ~are not faced with this problem of Forest Fire Preâ€" vention to such a marked degree ag ours; because the activities of the average individyal are restrained and though their logging and slashing will not bear comparison with ours,. the activities in our areas are neutral unâ€" til rffan with his camp fires, etc., arâ€" rives, 9 ( A review of ours and the whole of Canada‘s forest and other fires for the current and past years must, even to minds unversed in these losses, emâ€" phasize the qppalling national loss. Publicity has probhably been greater this year than in the past, yet the Red Enemy‘s tril has seared its way * through the best of our forests holdings towards its terminus, viz.: â€"Destruction. To improve the consérvation and protection of a God given heritage should (be unnecessary, nevertheless when confronted with the appalling fact that fire has destroyedâ€"the cream of our forests, the plea of Forest Fire Prevention is of paramount importâ€" ance and should bé heeded by each and everyone of us, from this, our beâ€" loved District of Temigkaming, to the far borders of ‘the Yukon.

Fire Chief Chas. Juék@ch, of Schuâ€" macher, was. President last year of the Temiskaming Firemen‘s Associaâ€" tion, and in that position won general high regard for his publicâ€"spiritedâ€" nes§ and his fhility in fire protection work. At the last convention of the Association, held recently in Haileyâ€" bury, President Jucksch gave a paper that is of very timely interest at presâ€" ent. This week being ‘*©Save the Forest Week‘‘ in Canada, Fire Chief Jucksch‘s paper is very appropriate for reproduction and accordingly is given below :â€" THE REMEDY IS OURS IN OUR FAIR NORTH Forest Fire Protection of Paramount Inportance Fire Chief Jucksch, of Schumacher, Gave Paper at Recent Temiskaming Firemen‘s Convention, That is of Special Interest This Weekâ€""Save the Forest" Week in Canada. seript:ion that vom ‘‘My suggestion is ~that each man who ‘went overseas is entitled to an equal share, widows or next of kin or those we had to leave behind. iIf this money was handed to us individually it would not amount to much.

Thousands of our best citizens are united whole heartedly in an effort to preserve and save our precious forests â€"a gift from our Almighty Father and a heritage to be passed on to the next generation and so on until the end of time.

HUNT IRREE THOUSAND CLAIMG REGORDED AT RED LAKE Department Carequly <â€" Considering Question of Recording Office at Sioux Lookout Recently the matter of necording offices has been seriously considered by the Ontano Department of Mines. There Jhas, been some clamor for a mining recording office at Sioux Lookâ€" out. is a mining recordmfli office already established at Red Lal\e. but it is claimed that this is not conâ€"| venient for the prospectors, there being so many claims now being staked at points a considerable dis tance east or west of Red Lake. The! statement is made that on account of | the larger staking east and west of | Red Lake a mining office at Red Lul\efi is not asyeasy of access for a majoriâ€" ty of prospectors as one at Sioux Lookout would be. Representations| have been made to the (Liuvernnwntf_ to remove the Red Lake office to| Sioux â€" Lookout. Others have helid that the office should be continued at! Red Still others hold that it would be a good idea to havé offices at both places. The Department is giving very careful consideration to all viewpoints and no doubt will setâ€" tle the question with the idea of the greatest benefit to, the greatest numâ€" ber in mind. There has been a regular oldâ€"time rush in to Red Lake and a still greatâ€" er rush may be looked for in the spring. It is well, hoyever, to reâ€" neat the warning recently given by Premier Ferguson in this matter. Those inexperienced on the trail and in prospecting work should hesitate before going alone into the. Red Lake country. For the oldâ€"timers, of course, it is a holiday trip so far as hardships are but those inexperienced in travel on the trail are liable to find it far otherwise. Several â€" parties â€" of ‘*greenhorns"‘ have ‘been tglking about going to Red Lake just like they would. go on a hunting trip to Muskoka.~ The two are not related and those inexperiencâ€" ed in ‘the work are liable to pay a bitter price for experience on the trail. Everybody should make a special note of the fact that full supâ€" ply of food should be taken on the trip. purchase of food even at Hudson and Red Lake is not always possible and of course there are no halfâ€"way houses or stores on the 125 miles between the new camp and the railway‘ line. The Reéed Lake rush is a genuine one to judge by the number of claims recorded in that district, the number now exceeding three thousand.
