Leishman & Sutherland, Publishers FOREST FIRES STILL BAD While the district of Temiska- ming has escaped the forest fire menace almost completely this year, great sections of the other northern districts have been swept over and the fires are still bad in many places. Continued dry weather has made it difficult for the men who are engaged in fire fighting and, while no esti- mate of the losses has been com- piled, these must be heavy. An unusual phase of the situa- tion this year is the number of claims made that fires are of in- cetidiary origin. From almost all the affected areas these claims come and it appears as though the authorities are accepting them as having some foundation. A reward of $1,000 for informa- tion that would lead to the con- viclion of anyone in this regard has been offered by the Ontario Government but so far there have been only one or two minor Seem, in town during the past week or | ° * wo, and it is expected that the } Haileybury in 1926 [nunbers will be greatly inerea LAWRENCE ROSENTHAL numbers will be greatly increas- }ed when the highway from North Bay is opened next year. |f Items from the Files of The 4}| | Haileyburian of Ten John R.

Extreme drought in many tions and carelessness on the part of those who go into the woods are the main factors, while light- ning has been blamed in several instances this year. sec-} The cure lies not in the offer- ing of rewards for information, but in a better realization on the} part of the whole people of the| true value of the forest areas, to-| gether with increased staffs in the forestry department. It is impossible, of course, to patrol every section at all times, but an example of what can be done is previded in the case of the Tema- gami Forest Reserve, where there | has never been a serious fire in many years. There is perhaps a greater realization of the value of the woods there than in many other places, but there are also! more people spending the sum-| mer months there than in any} other section of its size in On-| tario. | BOUNDARY "UNITES" | President Roosevelt coined a rather happy phrase when, at chautauqua a few days ago in New York States, he spoke of the boundary line which "unites" the} Republic and Canada. It was in much the same tenor as the} recent meeting between him and Lord Tweedsmuir, the Governor- General, at Quebec, and may be| taken as an assurance that there | is nothing immediately in sight} to spoil the "more than a century | of good fellowship" which has ex-| isted between the two countries Some other parts of his recent} speech, however, have been re- ceived in Canada with mixed] feelings. His statement that the| United States might be depended | on to intervene in our behalf} should we become embroiled with any outside nation appeals quite strongly, no doubt, to those with excreme pacifist ideas, but to others it seems a little as though he were reminding us that we are in no way able to protect our- selves in an emergency. Canada has always been more or less dependent on the Mother Country for her defences, and while the majority of her people| have no fault to find with this condition, it is just a little differ-| ent when the head of another| nation, even our closest neighbor, | hirts that we may some time find ourselves dependent on that na-| tion for protection. It is the view} of many, and perhaps the correct | view. that if such an eventuality arose, Canada would pay dearly in the end. At any rate, it is good to know that the friendship between this! country and the United States is to continue, and we all hope that there will be no need to worry about our defences for many years to come. }of points from which are applicable. a Tickets at these fares will be| = === on sale prior to, and during, the . . early days of each exhibition, and Special Ba rgain the return movement will be good to leave destination after EXC U R S | O N S the exhibition closes.
