u Save Canada Forests

Ottawa, Ont. January l0.-Of more
than usual interest, because Of its
representative character and the i'm
p~ortance Of the questions scheduled
for discussion, IL the meeting begun
In Ottawa today for the Canadian for
est congress, held under the auspices
Of the Canadian Forestry association.
The gathering. which Il 10 continue
In session until Saturday. was for
mally opened In the house Of com.
mons by Lord Grey.
The Official call for the convention
issued by Sir Wilfrid Laurier was
read. II outlined the objects Of the
congress to be as follows:
Canada possesses a Of the larg'
est areas OF virgin forest OF any
country In the world. and Is rated
by European experts first. or among
the first, Of the important sources OF
the worlds timber supply for the
future. The preservation Of the
streams In perennial and constant
flow. which Is largely controlled by
the forests on the watersheds. will
have an important influence on the
Industrial and agricultural develop
ment OF the Dominion. The expan'
sion OF our electrical and mechani.
cal industries will be regulated 10 a
great extent by water. which forms
the greatest source OF power In all
countries. and some OF u western
districts are dependent on irrigation
TO insure the ucces Of agricultural
operations. In all, the older provin
ces the clearing OF the soil has been
carried to such an extent that the
Ill effects on the water supply and
on agriculture are clearly marked
while ON the western prairies the
need OF sheltefing trees for houses
! and fields Is seriously felt by the set
tiers. The early construction Of the
transcontinental railway and Of othel
railways. through our northern for
ested districts and vhe consequent
opening Of those districts to genera
traffic. will increase the danger from
ire which has already been a great
active agent OF destruction.
The representation at the congress-
includes members Of the Dominion
and provincial parliaments. delegates
from the kindred associations In tht
several provinces and In addition
representatives OF the American For
estry association. e. G.. Jolly de Lot
biniere Of Quebec Is president Of tn.
association. and the secretary Is r

by the congress are:' National inter
est in the forest, the relations Of tn

on the backs of old envelopes or very
small scraps Of paper. which the author
ess carefully pinned together and num-
bered. Miss Bronte wrote so small n
hand that some of her manuscripts can
only be read by the aid Of a magnifying
glass. II is declared that on n piece OF
paper no larger than a playing card
she would write from 400 TO 500 words.
and after that would insert so many
corrections that the printer found il
well nigh impossible TO set il Up when
she wrote Jane Eyre" Miss Bronte
had read few novels but those by
Thackeray, whom she greatly admired.

on her great book. but complained that
