Repetition Unnecessary. 



Kingston "Whig," Aug. 3, 1916: 

 According to A. C. Clark, a manu- 

 facturer of lumber and wholesale 

 dealer in it, the Ontario Government 

 is largely to blame for the holocaust 

 which has recently swept over 

 Northern Ontario. Mr. Clark said 

 that educative campaigns should be 

 conducted among the settlers in 

 these regions. The government is 

 busy in carrying relief to the set- 

 tlers. The point is that it must 

 get busv in another way and by its 

 vigilance guard against a repetition 

 of the disaster. 



Detect the Fire Early. 



Cobourg "World," Aug. 4. 1916: 

 It is evident that some system will 

 have to be established whereby to 

 detect and to fight forest fires before 

 they assume dangerous proportions. 

 The resources of civilization must 

 be put under levy to protect the set- 

 tlements.

 leges and scientific institutions of high 

 standing, and, under exceptional condi- 

 tions, to men who have had three years 

 of collegiate training including certain 

 prescribed subjects. Men who are not 

 candidates for the degree may enter the

 Dendrology, Silviculture, Forest Man- 

 agement, Forest Technology and Lum-

Opinion in Dundas. 



Dundas "Star," Aug. 3 : No man 

 cares to take up land and make im- 

 provements while constantly under 

 the risk of having everything swept 

 away without a moment's notice. 



There will always be forest fires 

 so long as the work of prevention is 

 left in incompetent hands.
