Entertainment is provided by the sanitorium's own orchestra and, by moving picture shows. The pictures are all selected and of real educational value. And to be up-to-date in the latest form of entertainment: there is being installed a' wireless concert re- ceiving station, the gift of the Knights] of Columbus. The power station not only lights and heats the institution, but Nghts| the town of Kentville as well. Protec- tion from fire is afforded by a system and equipment including a watertank of 50,000 - gallons capacity. . The grounds of the sanitorium include 32 acres and the annual cost of upkeep of 'the whole institution is approxi- mately $290,000. Money spent for a better or more praiseworthy object cannot be imagined. The efforts of the Province of Nova Scotia to care for tuberculous patients are worthy of the highest commendation. Forestry Branch has planted trees at Petawawa, "Ontarlo, forest experiment station and on a number of its forest reserves in the Prairie Provinces to a total number of about 150,000; several of the big pulp and lumber companies have dome considerable planting, and there has beem a forward movement in" the municipal forest plantations in Quebec and Ontario. In the latter pro- vince the scheme of county and town- 'ship forests devised last year was put into active operation. In Simcoe county the first tree in the county for- est plot of one thousand acres, near Camp Borden, was planted by the War den with appropriate ceremonies. It is expected the whole plot will be planted in ten years. In the same planted plots of ten acres each, and in Norfolk county twenty thousand seedlings as a beginning were planted on the municipal forest. Other town- ships set up trees and the countiés of York, Ontario, and Durham, are out nurseries and getting Twudy to start next year. ee fevers The imprudent man reflects on what he has said; the wise on what he is going to say.--0'Connell, " Put your energy into achievement | to-day rather than into regrets to- strength og! the occasional use of Dr. Williame' Pink Pills.

Si he gi Identification. The teller of a bank in a Texas town was trying hard to be polite to a very trying woman at his window. "I am sorry to trouble you, madam," e| he said, "but you will have to be identi- fled." And he pushed the check across the slab toward her as he spoke. "Identified?" repeated the woman. "What does that mean? Isn't the check good " The bank man did not smile, for this was the thirtieth time he had been asked the qustion that day. "I have no doubt that it 1s," he sald, | "but I.don't know you. Do you know anybody in the bank?" "Why, I am Mrs. Waters!" exclalm- ed the woman. "Didn't you see my name on the check. See--here it is." The teller shook his head wearily, "You must be identified," he insisted, "You must bring somebody who knows you." The lady drew herself up. "That check," she sald with dignity, "was 'given me by my husband, 'There's his name on it. Do you know him?" "I do; but I don't know you." "Then, I'll show you who I am. My husband is a tall man with reddish laying | to get thig check." The teller waved bis hand. '"f guess it's all right," he said. "put your name right there--no, on the back, not on the face." a nite outcrops of over five feet in thick- ness have been discovered.

The question of forest fires has just been approached form a new angle. The trapper is the latest individual to add his testimony to the damage forest fires do to the great. fur industry. The fact fe forest fires injure every Cana- dian interest and benefit no one. Such being the case, and as 90 per cent. of all forest fires are started by human agency, Is #t not foolish and criminal that we allow fires to ravage our : | forests?

Changing the thickness of the root may not seem Hke a particularly handy way to keep the temperature of the house uniform. Certainly no one would think of doing it in that way in this country. But in the Arctic "shaving off the roof" is the regular thing, Mr. Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the polar explorer, explains in his book, The Friendly Arctic, just how the Es. kimo does it. If, says Mr. Stefansson, the snow house we were camping in was built at fifty degrees below zero, each block in the wall was then of that tempera- ture and contained what we may un- scientifically speak of as a great deal of "latent cold." To neutralize the cold it was necessary to keep the inside of the house for a considerable time at a temperature of perhaps 60 deg. F. Snow 'is so nearly a nonconductor of heat that, once the "latent cold" has been neutralized, the heat of Sur | bodies kept the temperature well ¢ the freezing point, even when hole in the roof was open for venti- lation. But'if the weather became a little warmer than it was when we | made camp, the heat of our bodies or nite to shave it any- tour to two inches thinner 'cold from outside would snow blocks and stop ARSE SALT LANDYSALT Bulk Carlots TORONTO SALT WORKS © 4 CLIFF .
