YEason fOr each one of which is to make profits' for its owners. But he who has never glimpsed a deeper significance to business than this, 1s indeed a superficial thinker. It must be apparent upon the most fleeting second thought that the real interprétation of "business" is the service df mah in the interests of man. Paradoxically, people with a good "i" for business prefer to gpell it "'busy-ness." Commerce is but the expression of the needs of the human race. : To live, we must work. The harder we work, the better we can live. The obligation to work does not apply to a few, but to all.

The president believes the forth- coming conference will succeed in re- moving the reasons for war and put an end to costly armaments. The late conflict was so costly in treasure and human sacrifices that he has de- flared the world's people are resolv- ed today that warfare ought to come to an end. The President's invitation to the world powers, it is believed, | will be one fitting to take its place | beside the famous rescript of the | late Emperor Nicholas II., of Russia in'caling the nations together to at- tend the First Peace Conference at The Hague in 1899 to initiate meas- | ures looking toward "the mainten- | ance of the general peace, and the | possible reduction of the excessive | armaments which were burdening all-| nations." { Official and diplomatic Washington | are displaying great activity in antici- | pation of the. forthcoming interna- tiona] gathering. The resident am- | bassaflors . and ministers of the | powers which are to participate in | the proceedings are busily engaged in | frequent conferences among 'them- selves and in individual conversa- tions with the secretary of state, Mr. { Hughes. These conferences and con~ | versations take in the entire range | of the gatherings's activities such as the scope of the conference, the date | of the assembly, the time of the | meetings, the probable length of the | conference's duration, the place of holding the meetings, quarters for | the delegates and their staffs, and the like, The British ambassador, Sir Auck- land Geddes, is taking a leading part in thése activities. As has come to be the general practice in Washing- ton in recent years, or to bs more exact, since the outbreak ofthe world war, it is usually left to Great Brit- | ain's diplomatic representative to "blaze the trail" for the other diplo- mats in approaching the secretary di state with the various propositions. | Always he had the full and hearty | support of his diplomatic colleagues | in these matters, It was clearly evi- | dent that while the other diplomats | were not much concerned.in fhe fix- ! ing of the date for the international } conférence, though this was of in- | terest to Great Britain because of the desire of the Dominion premiers | to attend .it without saerificing im- | portant home engagements, the dip- | lomatic representatives of the other | powers stood solidly behind Ambas- | sador+Geddes in 'his efforts to shape | the arrangements of the programme { of the conference, and in other mat- ters of substance. ; { The fact that 'these almost daily confererices have been going on among the Entente representatives probably has lent color to the rumors that these powers are still intent upon securing a general conference in.

OUR co-operation--the co-operation of all the citi- zens of Ontario--is the biggest need in Ontario Forestry to-day. History shows t impoverishment and national decline fol- lows from the destruction of a country's forests, Most of the area of this Province is non-agricultural, suited by. Nature only for growing trees. This land remains yours but the Government sells the trees. Every summer in Ontario an average area of 425,000 acres of forest land is burnt over, equal to a strip 130 miles long by 5 miles wide. This yearly desolation at the hands of her own-pesple is gradually turning the northern part of the Province into a rocky desert. On thousands of acres, even the soil has been destroyed by fire! Save Ontario's Forests They're Yours The average yearly num- ber of forest fires in Ontario is about 1,275. The vigilance of Fire Rangers keep two-thirds of Ontario's forest fires down to an average size of less than five But the others are big ' enough to raise the total average the acres. to 350 acres.
