As ther '14th annual national Christmas Good Turn, a coast-to-coast chain of Scout- Guide Toy shops once again provided Old Santa with approximately 100, 000 toys, dolls and story books, re- conditioned and practieally as good as new, and many thousands of new wooden toys and soft dolls produced in Scout toy plants and Guide studios. In many centres the Scouts and Guides had the co-operat'on of mov- ing picture theatre managers, who gave Saturday morning Toy Shop Matinees, at -an admission price of one toy. Local distribution of gifts was made in association-with service clubs, the Salvation Army and other welfare organizations, The special Scout-Guide effort this season 'was the bulk shipment from toy shops in the. other provinces to. Saskatchewan, to assist the Saskat- chewan 'Seouts (in doing their part toward providing gifts for the ap- proximate 50,000 children of "Santa Claus" age who 'otherwise would have been missed. For - this work the Scout Association divided Saskatche- wan Intc eight toy distribution areas, and; the toy shipments were allotted these areas ag called for, The shipments were provided by the toy shops at Sherbrooke, Mont- real, Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton, London, Winnipeg and Calgary. The Scouts of Medicine Hat, in the dry area .of southeastern Alberta, were helped in meeting their demands by the Scouts of Calgary, Cardston and Kimberley and Powell River, B.C. Details of ths heroic first aid and other. relief. work done by Chinese Boy Scouts at Shanghai and other Chinese cities bombed by the Japan- ese have been hinted at in press de- spatches and news reels. The Inter- national Scout Bureau in London re- ports more fully as follows: Despite the grave danger of con- tinued bombing in and 'around Shang- hai, Chinese :Boy Scants carried out their Scout: obligation toglhelp other people at all times." Their services in the hospitals and; other places can be looked upon as, nothing less than hero'c, and under the inevitable 'dan- ger they still persist in carrying on, Immediately after high explosives had been dropped on Shanghai, young Sconts 'began searching for the dead, dressing the slightly injured. with bandages improvised from blood-spat- tered piles of material, and act'ng as : _} stretcher bearers. One of these young boys performed a task from which. many a grown man would haye shrunk. A lift in a -bujlding had been halted between the ground and first floors as the ex-: plosion cut off power? Blood stream- ed from the cage, the door of which _had been partially opened by some "injured person before death had in- tervened. A ladder: was run up to the cage, but the opening was too small for an adult, A Scout went up, hesitated before what he saw, then threw down a pith helmet filled with blood, and performed the gruesome task of removing the dead. An early morn'ng bombing raid, raining deaah on Per-hsin-ching vil- lage for twenty 1:inutes was another scene deseribed in which Boy Scouts, police and other. workers rushed to rescue the wounded. The destruction covered a wide area, and up to a late hour scores of wolunteers. were still busily engaged. in extricating bod/es pinned: beneath the debris. Simultaneously, bombing was going on in. Chowkachiao, in the Jessfield | district, and 'many civilians were |- killed, ' Shortly after the raid every; available fireman, policeman and Boy The Age o of Talk It is ona' of "the © tragedies of the post-war era that we have had much talk and 'little: action.

Officials of the French Concession Service Sanitaire found Scouts ex- tremely useful, while st'll other Scouts were called upon to help look after the crowds of frightened re- fugee children. When a group of journalists were being shown through the hospitals in the Chinese territory, and were taken to the Vienna Garden, a dancing hall turned into an emergency hospital, they discovered more Bey Scouts at- tending the wounded, Indian Rights Being L Defended If those whe. writ write hunting laws made new year's resolution, Philip H, Godsell, Fellow of the Royal Geo- graphic Soclety and - author, hopes they remembered the forgotten red man whose hunting grounds are slow- ly being robbed: by the white brother with his ingenious. ways of earning a dollar, 'The tall, broad-shouldered wanderer of Canada's frozen frontier who came to the Dominion from England thirty years ago because he wanted a war bohnet and peace-pipe, today scanned records of. northern -éxperience and found -one jarring note in songs he could sing of those who live in the land - of the snows. And the white man's airplane hummed the most dis- turbing tune. Godsell said taith has not been kept by those. who signed the treaty with the Indian and swore hunting and fishing would be for as long "as the waters fan and the sun shone." Through numerous hunting licenses given to white trappers the Indian is steadily being pushed into low mor- ale, poor health and impoverishment, Godsell,- who. has .trekked from Labra- dor to Alaska and learned to speak six native fdlalects, declared, Now Destitute "I know of Indian families thirty years ago- who took pride in their ability to derive a living from forests and the stream and be as:they thought independent of white mem" Qodsell sald. "Today, I've seen those same families brought to utter destitution by inroads of white trappers and de- pletion of areas in which they hunt- ed." Godsell explained the 50,000 Indian men, women and ohildren up north had 15,000 bread-winners whose prim- itive mode of hunting could not match the white man's mechanical bird nor his other. tricks of obtaining a living from animals of northern woods and the fish-lined streams.

There are some, it ig true, which are regarded as weed trees in a stand, because less desirable than others which might oe- cupy thelr space. The Manitoba maple is a fast growing tree, but rather short-lived and not otherwise superior to many other native trees, has fre- quently been over-planted, and to that extent is a weed tree. It is llable to and fs subject' to undightly damage by neects and browsing animals. It is, more- over, objectionable on account of its free seeding habits, Cut Down One Kind Only When a large seed 'tree is growing in proximity to a garden or other cul- tivated land an annual crop of seed- lings has to be destroyed, and if not taken in time is soon so well anchored that some effort {s required to uproot the 'young saplings. low for a season have been seen as thickly covered as if sown to a crop of grain and have become in a few years a dense thickét worthless for anything. Even the thin sod of road- sides is soon invaded by clumps which are kept deformed by the ravages of passing livestock, Fortunately it is not usually neces- sary. to sacrifice 'more than a few of the trees in order to secure immunity from such trouble, The Manitoba ma- ple i8 one of those species in which pistillate (female) flowers are horne on one individual, and staminate (male) flowers on another, By cutting down the former:only, the nuisance is avoided, because only those are secd trees, After flowering to poMinate the pistillate trees, the staminate trees bear only foliage, free of the untidy, bleached seed keys which keep the others looking asd though clothed in rags all winter long, Known As Dox Elder The Manitoba maple, also known as box elder, is a native of the Prairie Provinces where it is common along water-courses and lake margins, but also stands drought well when planted away from water, While not originally growing in the East, it has been ex. tensively planted, escapes freely, and even near the Atlantic coast has beon seen to have colonized river banilis as in its prairie home. Traffic Policemen Taught Manners New Type-of English Cop is Be- ing Instructed -- Must Have Perfect Road Conduct An entirely new type of traffic pol- Iceman is being trained in England, where two metropolitan police inspee- tors are teaching the first batch of 100 men to becomg motor-drivers, traf- fic experts, and patrol workers. The course these men are taking in. cludes fnstruction on how to discrim- inate between dangerous behavior and what {3s merely a breach of good man- ners, These men are to undertake duty quite distinct from ordinary patrol or police work, the aim being to improve the standard of road con- duct among all users of the King's Highway. Punctiliously observing good man- ners themselves as they patrol the congested roads typical of. week-end - traffic to and from the favorite beau- ty-spots of Lancashire, Cheshire and North Wales, these new police-motor- ists are to give advice to cyclists, pri- vate automobile drivers, taxi-drivers, truck-drivers and pedestrians, Advice will be given to those whose road con- duct falls below a certain standard or whose road manners involve others in difficulty or risk, Says Everest May Never Be Climbed Member of Expedition Which At- tempted to Scale the Peak Is Doubtful if Mountain May Ever Bé Conquered Major John Morris, who twice was transport officer for expeditions geek- ing the peak of Mt, Everest, said this week at Hollywood, Florida, that the dizey heights of the world's highest mountainimay never be attained. Virtually the only way to reach the 29,002-foot roof of the Himalays is by painfully, slowly, toiling upward afoot, he said. . Major Morris hag retired from the Indian Army. During nearly twenty years of service in India he was ac- tive in scionce and writing. He is vis. iting his brother, E. M. Morris. Reached 24,300 Foot Level Last year an expedition of which the retired officer was transport offl- cial reached the 24,300-foot level of Everest. It took six weeks to cross the Himalayan and Tibetan plateau from Darjeeling, and then the expedi- tion had reached only the base of the great mountain at an elevation of about 18,000 feet, At that height, the Major said, every move Is an exer. tion. Breathing is, dificult. Two expeditions will attempt te fight their way up to the peak nex{ year, Gardens Jeft fal-
