The methods of forestâ€"fire fighting have been revolutionized along with those of detection, and today instead of the rangers being dependent upon backâ€"firing and ordinary equipment, such as axes and shovels, the Departâ€" ment of Lands and Forests has introâ€" duced the gasoline portable fire pump, equipped with linen hose, which can reach fires at great distances from water. These mechanical fireâ€"fighting units have given the rangers contfidâ€" ence, and have engabled the organizaâ€" tion to reach and put out many fires which a few years ago would have been uncontrollable. The department at the present time has some 270 of these units, with more than half a milâ€" lion feet of linen hose connected therewith. Methods of Detecting Bush Fires Have Been Revolutionized Within the Past Few Years. In the earlier years the ranger, on foot or eanoe patrol, with only a limitâ€" ed vision, was often unable to locate incipient or early fires before they reached dangerous proportions. Today the 125,000,000 acres of Ontario‘s forâ€" est regions are under daily observvaâ€" tion, either from aircraft or lookâ€" HOW ONTARIO AGATS FOREST FIRES THEaF DAY3 ti0on, either fTrom AircralIt Oor 100Kâ€" out towers.

With the solution of the problem of quick detection of forest fires comes the problem of suppréssion and fireâ€" fichtine. Methods of detecting forest fires have been revolutionized within the past ten years.

The ability to take advantage of quick detection methods in reaching fires quickly is of vital importance. In the last few years numerous fires have been overtaken and controlled which in the earlier years would have reached disastrous proportions. Fire records show that, while the| total number of fires does not vary| percepitibly, the percentage which do not develop ‘beyond a few acres is greatly increasing. More than 99 per| cent. of the fires do not attain beyâ€"| 1 ond 100 acres in extent.

It is estimated that the department has at the present time upward of threeâ€"quarters of a million dollars‘ worth of major equipment. such as tire pumps, motor boats, auto trucks, railway velocipedes, etc. Upon the detection of forest fires, one of the first problems is that of transporting equipment and men to the seene of action. sBâ€"3 ‘* Whoever wishes to see gold quartz h(.mg made need only go to _ a . hot sprinw near Boulder, Montana, which is depositing goldâ€" bearing quartz that differs in no particular from the gold quartz that is found in the vicinity.‘ says Allan L. Benson, in his recently published book, ‘*‘The Story of (Geolâ€" ogy."‘ *‘*‘This process happens to be taking place on the surface where it can be seen. _ We may be sure thai the sorting out and the accumulation of metal materials is continuing below the surface. We are prone to regard the earth as a finished job, yet nothâ€" ing is more definitely established than the fact that it is not. _ The earth is changing now probably as rapidly as ever it did since its early days. Only the brevity of human life prevents us from noting the changes.‘‘ The geologist would st at least one “'G()lOf"lbt ar now there are many m the making. This theory startling to the ordinary the sfudent of geology it so. ‘*Metals are accumulated in ores in a number of ways. Where fissures penetrate rocks far enough to enâ€" counter sufficient heat, the heat conâ€" verts the metals into gasses and sends them swirling upward where they are deposited upon the surfaces of the fissures. When molten rock burns its way â€"upward through sedimentary rocks, mineral bearing gases also find their way upward, and water is heated to become a solvent of rocks and a colâ€" lector of minerals. Perhaps the precâ€" ious metals are mostly found in mounâ€" tainous regions because molten rock, coming up from below with its gases, has put them there. Hot water is a great carrier of minerals. Such water flows into fissures, deposits its metals, together with other matter for w Invh we have no present use, and forms what we call veins. When water bearâ€" ing gold flows into a pocket in the rock, a nugget is formed. Mines usuâ€" ally “g'lve out‘‘ after they have been carried to a certain depth, because the cracks that contain the ore go no farâ€" ther. Below is solid rock."‘ There is a common tendency to con siderâ€" the formation of the metallic ores of the earth as a job fully comâ€" pleted. The average man thinks that pleted. The average man thinks that so ftar as metallie ores are concerned it is all a matter of finding the deâ€" posits of them ; it would create astonâ€" ishment and disbelief to suggest that suech ores are still in the making in this earth. Generally speaking, when anyone speaks hopefully of a continâ€" ued supply of gold for the world, it is with the idea of new deposits being found of greater extent than imaginâ€" ed. To the question, ‘*Is the world‘s supply of gold limited?" the average ". man would be inclined to say **Yes!

There is nothing like music to stir the soul of humanity and create harmony, satisfaction, and good felâ€" lowship. Why do they have bandsn the army? Why do they have bands in the navy ? It is for the express purâ€" pose of keeping the morale of those organizations. Very well, the same should be true then of keeping up the morale of a town or city. Public band concerts are beneficial in _ various ways, not only in keeping up the morâ€" ale, but in keeping people out of misâ€" chief. Persons who really music are about the last ones to get into trouble. They are not looking for thrills of the adventuresome kind. They reâ€" ceive their thrill from the satisfaction they have in interpreting the vibraâ€" tons of others‘ soulsâ€"so to speak. There is no denying the fact that muâ€" sic is the poetry of the soul, and every musician is a poet at heart, whether he can write a quartrain or not. There is nothing that stirs the sensitive soul of mankind more than music, and that accounts for people whose ears are out of tune to harâ€" mony being shocked when a Bâ€"flat is played, and it should be Câ€"sharp. Freâ€" quently, writers in metropolitan citâ€" ies take a ‘‘shot"‘‘ at the country band. That is just where they show their igâ€" norance. They do not know what muâ€" sic is. All they can do is to grind out, in the vernacular of the sports writer, a bunch of ‘*dope.‘"‘ Municipal bands are a necessity, and every town and city should be proud of its municipal orgeanizations."‘ . In an editorial article a couple of weeks ago The Perth Expositor says: Take one large grassy field, one half dozen children, two or three small dogs, a inch of brook and some pebbles. Mix the children and dogs well together and put them in the field, stirring constantly. _ Pour the brook over the pebbles and sprinkle the field with flowers.

Kane, whose home is at Mileage 104, was about 150 yards from the sohool at the time, and he had gone down for the second time when Brooks, who lives nearby, went to his rescue and without waiting to remove any of .his clothing. He found he could not handle the boy alone and called for help, Baird responding fully dressed. Between them, they got young Kane ashore and brought him around.
