bush uied to be and what did we find nothing but acres nnd acres of bare land with hundred tree stumpi dotting the landscape like tombstones for the trees which hid fallen here and there were huge brush piles what else but funeral pyres gone uerc the flowers and fern completely dry were the erstwhile swampy places the silver stream hud lest its sparkle there were no trees left ghe it undulation of light nnd shade more wholesale destruction never saw but lis ha seen many like it flnce then dont know who owned the bush and of course dont know why the timber was sold all do know is that sktt

encouraging their men la to use the axe sparingly to save joung trees plant new ones whenever and wherever possible to make use of the free distribution of trees and evergreens by the government we can even help bv being economical with the wood we burn and not grumble unduly at the quality and quantity of what llnd in the woodshed if ue belong an organisation we can suggest that resolution be
