The secretary of the Canadian For- estry Association suggests that a num- ber of forest fire protective associa- tions should be formed all over the country to co-Operate guarding against tires. The limit holders in the St. Maurice valley formed a co-operative fire protective association last year. ftaxing themselves one.quarter of a cent per acre to raise funds with which the rangers were equipped with canoes, tents, gasoline speeders for use on railway lines besides makin possible the cutting out of trails and the erection of telephone lines. Look- out stations are to be erected next year. on the highest points throughout the territory. These will be connect ed by telephones so that a force of men can be sent instantly i! a fire is discovered. Similar co-operation on the part of lumbermen throughout the country would prevent waste of both labor and valuable property. The Canadian_ Forestry Association will take up the linking together 01 the provinces of Ontario and ‘Quebec in the cooperative fire protective scheme and hope to produce good results. Rogers found financial recognition slow in Canada, and went to New York to sell his wares. At the time (he wrote a little poem entitled, ”The Poet Bidden To Manhattan,” explain- ing his removal. This is one verse: “You‘ve piped for those who will not pay ~, Till now, I trust, 'your wits are riperâ€" Make no delay â€"â€" come while you may-â€" And pipe for those who pay the piper.” Then turn to Lampman and list to his answer: ”What do poets want with gold?â€" Cringing slaves and cushioned ease? Are not crusts and garments old Better for their souls than these?” Who wins? ! In going over the poetical works of the late Archibald Lampman, and of Charles G. D. Roberts, a careful stu- dent will note a. wide divergence of views on the topic of poets and their payâ€"the divine afflatus and its rela- tion to coin of the realm. Doctors are noted for disagreements, lawyers likewise, but the poets eclipse both professions _in this respect: The, finishing touches consist of a smearing, inside and out, with fish- oil, together with artistic decorations in brilliant colors. The sides of the canoe having been brought to the desired curvature. the water is then emptied out and the shell allowed to dry thoroughly, but without hacking. The builder‘s attention is now turn- ed to the adjustment of cleverly fitting sticks in it transversely along the gunwale, increasing in length from the ends to the middle. By reason of these stretchers a cedar log of. say, two feet and a half in diameter will furnish a canoe of three or four feet in beam. The width of the canoe var- ies, of course, with the length. When the interior and the exterior of the canoe have been finished to the liking of the builder, his next step is to "stretch.” Without this 0 l eration the craft would be entire y, unseaworthy. To make the canoe seaworthy it is set level on a firm? skid foundation and then filled with water. A fire is then built and stones at a red heat are thrown into the canoe until the water boils. This boiling is maintained until the walls! of the canoe, which are more than? an inch thick become as pliable as! sole leather and capable of being! stretched a foot or more beyond: their normal width. 3 Since the coming of the white man the Indians have, for the most part, felled trees for their canoes with axes; but in the old days this was accom- plished by burning and by stone im- plements, the fire being so handled as not to in] me the portion whereof the canoe was to be built. The log is turned over, with the hollow side down. A slow fire is em- PlOYed to shape the exterior and once more the surface is neatly worked until the sound timber appears. The log is hollowed by burning and chopping. A fire is built on the top and is so carefully watched and so skillfully directed that when the burn- ing is finished the big piece of timber is neatly hollowed, 8with wonderful symmetry from bow to stem. The whole concave surface is left so evenly and nicely charred that when the surface is worked down to the sound timber by the use of a buck- horn adze there remains but little al- teration to be made.

Next the log is turned over and the outside fashioned. ‘ “ m: mmii‘ciiii A Merger In Gloves. Poets and Their Pay. .

Nor are many of his fellow Italians at all backward in advocating his banishment from the streets, one prominent profession- al man declaring that the existence of the Italian piano grinder gave the entire colony a reputation for lack of industry which was not at all do- served. Taking the groas earningg of the For this increasingly profitable in- dustry, the city of Toronto charges no license fee. Indeed, according to some oficial interpretations, the hardy- gurdy man is breaking the law every day he plies his trade.

Chil- dren are naturally sensitive to what other youngsters may remark. Hence it becomes a matter of “the proper thing“ to see that the "poor old Ital- ian" is given a penny or two before he moves along to a neighbor's house. That is one of the triflin points 0! ride in a ten-year-old. at he be- ieves necessary to keep up his caste. Presuming that twelve visits were made in an hour and from one to ten cents received at each. the profit of a twelve or fourteen-hour day is not hard to realize. As was noted above. from four to ten dollars is the average daily earning povver of a well-manag- ed_h1irly.guzdy. . Two places the piano grinder visits ‘ with untiring patienceâ€"the hotel, and the district blessed with numerous children. At the former he reaps a plentiful harvest from that sympathe- tic fraternity suspended from the bar rail, who become so helplessly trans ported with sentiment when a pretty little lady holds out the tamboureen and murmurs: ”Something to help?" Of course there’s something to help. “Here, Joe, give me two halfâ€"dollars for a bill. Don’ t mention it, Signor- ina; it was because your lovely face recalled a memory of by-gone years. And the little lady of the tamboureen takes her toll of pennies and quarters from the rest of the gentlemen, some of whom plead earnesz with her that father should ietchy his hurdy- gurdy inside and play "The Old Oak- en Bucket." Systemâ€"plus a curious grasp of human natureâ€"lies back of a success- ful career as a musical mendicant. Thus, the Italian handle-artist who possesses a “papoose” knows quite well that when seated in a basket on his street piano. it has a faculty of exciting feminine sympathy, which in turn means the loosening of purse- strings. It is not so much an ace:- dent of their occupation that Baby Antonio accompanies the parents; he has a very profitable knack of “look- ing cute" just at the moment the "rich ladies” are hurrying by. Michael Angelo Dicicco is king of the street piano in Toronto. Gifted with a large and industrious family. Michael Angelo took pattern by the bank and bread amalgamations loom- ing up in every direction. One day be increased his rolling stock from one to four, appointed his sons and daughters to branch managements. and himself became general manager of his hurdy-gurdy circuit. So to-day four street pianos pour into Michael‘s treasury a ready stream of copper and silver. Fellow Italians like to guess at the fortune of Dicicco; but Michael himself shakes his head and matters that “a man must make a living some way.” “How to earn money and be gen- teel: My correspondence course in the ‘ manipulation of the hurdy-gurdy puts y 1 in the way of making ten dollars ‘a day. Positivel the :best paying {branch of the usical Art. Don’t 'waste hundreds on counterpoint and harmony when you can get results by iturning a handle.” As is true in every branch of enter- prise, however bnmble, some organiz- ing genius steps to the front and makes a merger. It. applies even to the hrurdy-gurdy. Eleven Italian families devote their entire time to such musical adventur- ing and possess an average of two street pianos each. Usually the hue- band and one daughter accompany one machine. while the wife and an- other child take charge of the second. This is not the exaggeration it sounds. The hurdy-gurdy industry in Toronto has reached a. bosis where it is making a profit for its disciples of from four to ten dollars daily, says The Star ’_th;kly of tyat qity.
