THURSTON, - E'l't"" SAVE THK FORESTS Rivers Overflowed Almost eveybody thinks that the other man has the easier and better job. There is a general tendancy to ascribe succes to luck. In the same way, many communities excuse their failure to secure health for their constituents because of some local difficulties and, at the same time at- tribute the success of other commun-" ities to "just luck." It is true that every place has its own problems and difficulties. It is equally true that the healthy com- munity has succeeded, not because of luck, but because its members did what was necessary to overcome their local difficulties. Throughout Canada you will find a great variation as to health cond- itions between places that may be I fairly compared with each other. (There is of course, a reason for this. I This reason is not hard to find; it / is a simple one. Where the best health work has been done, there health conditions are best, and so on, down the scale, the health of the community corresponds to the health work done by the community. •Every citizen should| enquire as to the health standing of his town or j country, find out how it compares with others, ask these questions of (the local or the provincial depart- ments. Every citizen should then ask himself whether or not I he and his fellow citizens are pro- Ividinp: the money and other support necessary to enable the health depart- ment to pave the health road of the community with sound preventive measures, so that the citizens may travel alon?? in happiness, free from the biiiv.ps of disease, the ruts of ill I'.culth, the sudden, unguarded "'â- ossings of epidemic and the unpro- tected precipices of nreventahle fat- al illnesses. Questions concerning health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical Asso- ciation, 184 College street, Toronto, will bo iinswered by letter. Questions ".s t') diagnosis and treatment will not bo answered. It is appalling to learn that since the arrival of the white man in Can- ada, forest fires have destroyed GO',; of her primeval forest wealth. Four or five times as much timber has been burned in this country as has been cut for the uses of man and the requirements of commerce. Dissipat- ion of our accessit)le timber supplies within a period of twenty-five years is forecast. To bring home to the minds of Canadians before it is too late, the tragic loss that will result In this country if our forest areas are tot- ally destroyed, Canadian Korest Week has been ret asi<le. In the press, in the schools, in clubs and public gatherings, the imporUnce of Canada's forest industries will be drawn to public attention. If every body in Canada realized that thous- ands of familie.-^ r.nd millions of dol- lars of capital are dependent upon the Canadian forests, everybody would think twice before throwing down lighted matches or cigarette Btubs. or lighting fires in dangerous places or leaving them to spread on or below the surface of the ground Carelcssnef'S * has destroyed 00", . The axe has taken Ut'. . Only care- fulness will save the 27'^ of our for- est wealth that remains. Hon. Charles Stewart. Minister of the Interior, has to do with Canad- ian forests, and it is encouraging to note his activity in arousing public â-  opinion as to the situation and the imperative need for the care in per- venting forpst fires. AN ADVERTISING PUZZLE. Here is a puzzle to do with adver- tising which the Fourth Estate places before the public to solve. Two non- advertisers manufactured practically the same kind of rat traps costing 15 cents each, which were sold to the trade at 20 cents, the purchaser pay- ing 30 cents. One of the producers decided to advertise. His increased Kales enabled him to make the traps for 10 cents each. He then sold them to the trade for IB cents. The pur- chaser bought them nt 2h cents. Who paid for the adertising. Not the maker of the rat traps because he made no more money nolling more traps. Not the retailer, for he made the same profit, on ler<-< outlay. Not the purchaser, because he bought for five 'â- ents le»><. Who paid for the ad- vertising? Now argue that out; but better stil'. le«- those neople who do not advertise try It out and see from experience whether it does not pay to advertise. Thcv will find it docs ' and won't bother much in ronnequp ee ebout solving the puz7le â€" Kin?: 'on Whig. The snow practically all disapneaar- ed the past week with heavy thunder .showers and warm weather, which made the creeks and rivers rise to a height not seen for many years. Water in the big pond was so high on ihiiLsday that H. A. McAuley. the owner, expected to be forced to cut I hole in the side of the pond in order to save the dam, as he had all aven- ues open for the escape of the water which was rising steadily. Fortunately the peak was reached .it that time and .ill (lunger was passed The .Sau- feeen Hiver at Priceville carried away the north jiart of the mill dim owned l)y the Wright Bros., and it will mean â- luite a loss to them, as they only had the mill in operation a .shoit time. On Friday the Provincial highvvaj north and .south of Fle.sherton was opened and many took advantage of this to enjoy a cruise for the firsff^ time this spring. LETTER FROM W. L.

Canada was discovered over 400 years ago, but was not r:rn>ane"-l'''y settled for over a centur.v after tl»e discovery. Canada was very active in the great war, and since that time she has taken a leading part among the nations of the world. By ! joking over the past and present welt -.re of Can- ada we can easily imaginj the future greatness of our country. Agriculture is the mos; important industry. The value of ;\gricultural products is very great, ex eeding two billion dollars every year. These fig- adjacent to the coasts, one in the realize the advantage of living in a north Atlantic and one in the north Pacific. Practically all the great lakes and rivers of Canada teem with fish.
