Air Photography in B.C. 



(Victoria Times.; 



Increased activity is noted from the 

 Jericho Beach B. C. Air Station. The 

 HS21, flying boat, which has made sev- 

 eral trips to Mctoria is now at Kamloops 

 Lake, in charge of Major C. MacLaurin. 

 superintendent of the B. C. Air Station, 

 who with a party is now engaged in tak- 

 ing aerial photographs of forest limits 

 in that neighborhood, for the Provincial 

 Forestry Department. 



The huge flying boat was dismantled 

 and shipped by train to Kamloops, where 

 it was taken to the lake and re-assembled. 

 It has been engaged on the forest recon- 

 naissance since Monday last, and it is 

 learned that excellent results are being 

 produced. ^lajor MacLaurin is accom- 

 panied by two riggers, and one engine 

 fitter, all from the British Columbia Air 

 Service. Major Basil Hobbs is in com- 

 mand of the British Columbia Air Sta- 

 tion in the absence of the superintendent. 



It was learned to-day that there was 

 some likelihood of a sub-station being- 

 formed at Kamloops to work in con junc- 

 tion with the coastal air station. 



Trees. 



I think tbat I shall never see 



A poem lovely as a tree. 



A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed 



Against the earth's sweet flowing 



breast ; 

 A tree that looks at God all day 

 And lifts her leafy arms to prav; 

 A tree that may in summer wear 

 A nest of Robins in her hair; 

 L pon whose bosom snow has lain ; 

 Wlio intimately lives with rain. 

 Poems are made by fools like me. 

 P.ut only God can make a tree.
