The Young Men's | “Forestry rain-
ing Plan is again under way with a
total of 500 men in 28 camps. ‘This
plan this year will have a similar ob-
fect to previous years, namely, to give
the young participants a rudimentary
knowledge of forestry by-letting them
werk under actual forest conditions..
Their time will be divided into three
parts. Work, which: will -eonsgist. -of
building fire trails for forest protec-
tion; education, which will impart 1
knowledge of forestry and forest pro-
tection; and, lastly, recreation which
will follow the line of organized sports

In previous years, the plan’ ‘Was-prov-
ed very satisfactory. The men have
the opportunity to spend a few weeks
aut of doers, they acquire enough
knowledge , to aid them materially in
obtaining employment and most impor-
tunt they come back to town with A

men heave ‘been, placed in the offices
of the Forest Rangers as Rangers’ as-
sistants so that.they may gain a work-
ing knowledge of the duties of forest
officers. About 100 men have been so
employed this year,
