We have often heard of prayers
being offered up for rain. But

the tap turned off? |.

We have heard a number of
sermons of late by different
ministers on '‘The Needs of the
Chureh.’”” It struck us that the
fundamental need i.e., *‘ecommon
honesty of purpose, of action and
of though?’ *haye been overlooked.
Straightforward honesty is the
first requisite of any institution
seeking to gain suecess.

In many lines of endeavor
specializing has proven a fallacy.
Especially has this been proved
in the agricultural and horticul-
tural world. It is equally true
in all other walks of life. The
day of the efficieney expert and
the specialist expert is on the
wane. As it requires more than
one variety of produce on the
farm to keep up the land and to
feed the farmer, so it requires
more than one line of thought to
keep a man normal and sane, A
balaneed ration is needed -for the
stomach and for tie brain and,
varied crops are needed for the
land.

Prize Essay on
Forest Fires is
Good Reading

About one-hundred years ago,
a playful little breeze was _ blow-
ing through the boughs’ of a
great tree, standing by itself otf
the side of a hill, and as the
breeze sang and danced among
the branches it blew the little
cones off the tree and they drop-
ped to the ground one‘ by one.

For many months -the little
seeds-lay there, and they sent
tiny roots down into the ground,
and little shoots grew up into the|’
air. For many, many years the
little plants grew and after over
a hundred years, instead of.one
solitary tree there wasa mighty
forest. . Now, after a century
these treeg were ready for the
people, to use.

This forest | was, very beautiful

nan representing ‘one of
greatest railroads—and as he
looked at the trees, he saw rail-
road ties, enough to aetretth
across the Dominion, and he also
thought what a wonderful forest
it was, . oe.

For many months men carpe,
men representing aeroplane man-

"| ufacturers, railroads, builders and

contractors, lumber _companies,
great papermijls, men from all
over Canada; and during these
months the great trees waited
patiently to learn how they were
going to help the world.

Then, one afternoon, a happy,
-|heedless party of young people
came to the forest and built. a
eampfire, and after a lovely after-
noon they went awav leaving
their smouldering fire. That
evening a breeze blowing through
the forest fanned the embers
into a bright flame, and the fire
grew greedily and licked up the
dry grasses, then ran up 4 near-
by tree, and in only two days all
that was left of the mighty
forest was a smoking mass of
charred wood and cinders.

This is just one little forest fire,

and very valuable,so many people.
wanted to procure it, and many|:
\]men came to look at it.

thought. what a: wonderful forest :
. it was, iia

and yet a great deal was lost by
it. Think of the loggers that
would have been employed, and
no matter who used the trees,
employment would have beer
given’ to thousands. Our pro-
vince would have been enrichgd,
and great good done by the
product of the wood.

Last year there were over
twenty-three hundred just such
fires. Think of the awful de-
struction done by: them: millions
of dollars were lost by these fires;
men were put out of work; fami-
lies were made homeless.

If those trees were protected
and saved, think of the good
that would acerue. Men wobld
be provided with work, more
pulp and paper mills would be
built in British Columbia, more
lumber mills would be built,
more people would-come and new

towns would spring up; there-

fore, British Columbia would
prosper in every way.

I think this is a sufficient rea-
son why we should protect our
forests, for by so doing we would
bring in anew era of happiness
and prosperity to our province,
the best in the whole Dominion,
