e t l One of the most encouraging indiâ€" cations that the Red Cross is a vital and immensely important factor in the communities in which it strives to be of particular service, is the manner in which the small settlements in the isolated parts of Ontario, where Outâ€" post Hospitals have been established, are working to raise money to help the Settlers‘in Outl "‘“‘”""?g Districts Civing CGenerously Campaign for Funds for Peaceâ€"Time Work of oY Anyone can sell poorer tea cheaper. avy â€"Ssibda . \ .\ Ondbdi Car | actumemenctume 4 e wroughly cooked, and made easfly igestible because every food cell has ‘Serve tl; fruat fresh or cooked on xcecream ormwholemxlkorcream At an meal or between meals when the apperite s light refreshment. appeute As a change from common plzce Snz.ker Pufl'ed Wheat or Qnaker Puff â€" They ‘~are just whole WV hen hot weather weakens the digesâ€" tive system, you long for simple foods which are easily assimilated.

The Womens‘ <Institutes have also ‘been generous contributors. Thorold and Seaforth have held sucâ€" cessful campaigns, and many other centres are still to be reported. â€"â€" Another source of support has been the County Councils of Ontario. Many are still to be heard from, but. the results to date indicate that they are familiar with the work of the Red Cross in this Province, and that it meets with their approval. . The County of Bruceé and the (County of Kent contributed $200 each. The County of Haldimand gave $100,.00, while the County of Ontario made a donation of $25.00. Private camâ€" paigns are also taking place in seveâ€" ral sections of the Province, and money has. been received in several instances from clergymen, â€" who through a request made for moral â€"supâ€" was the first community in Ontario taking part in the National Campaign, to report its objective: reached. â€" The little village of Apsley has reached and gone uver its objective of five hundred dollars. .

"® We must render an acâ€" counting of thls trust. to those who come after us.‘ The situation as regards the Porâ€" cupine area applies with varying force to all other parts of Ca.nada Accordâ€" ingly, it is not surprising that the National Committee for the Celegbraâ€" tion of the Diamond Jubilee of Conâ€" federation should pay special attenâ€" tion to the question of the ‘‘Consesvaâ€" tion of Canadian Wild Life.‘‘ An articles by the committee quotes as follows from the Sportsman‘s Code of Ethics :â€" game will be practically unknown. The big need in this immediate disâ€" trict at present is a game warden with the authority of the Government and devoting all his time and attention to seeing that the laws designed for the conservation of wild life are enforeâ€" ed. _ There is an active agency at present at work in the interests of fish and game and ‘birds in this districtâ€" the Porecupine Rod and Gun Club.

Mr. LeH.eup does not believe that, Canada‘s potentialities in minâ€" ing and other lines have been exploitâ€" ed to any where near the extent they deserve. * ""When asked about the disastrous fire which â€"swept the north five years ago and the possibility of ‘the recurâ€" rence of such a fire, Mr. LeHeup said that there were very exceptional circumstances in connection with that fire, such as the withdrawal of the fire rangers and indiseriminate burning of scrub. brush which are not likely to ever recur. The fire patrol â€" had been greatly improved and while he could not say that the government had done everything possible to preâ€" vent fires the service was much more efficient than in 1922.‘‘ Canadians have excellent reasons for being proud of their national parks, which comprise a total area of nearly 9,000 square miles, and are absolute preserves for wild life; huntâ€" ing <being totally prohibited within their borders, sand fishing allowed only under strict regulations. _ Banff is especially an ideal spot for the aniâ€" mal lover, as excellent natural padâ€" docks have ‘been constructed in this vicinity where buffalo, wapiti, mounâ€" tain sheep, goat and deer are confined for those who wish to see these aniâ€" mals in ideal surroundings. An exâ€" cellent motto for every ‘hunter and sportsman is :â€"‘‘No species of animal should be destroyed at a greater rate than it can increase.‘‘ It is impossible to even approxiâ€" mately estimate the value of our wild animal life in dollars and cents, but it is well to remember that moose, for example, not only furnishes our Inâ€" dians of the northern woods with meat but provides them with clothing as well.
