Army PLANES Wanted

Unable to buy aeroplancs because
of insufficient appropriations, the for
estry bureau of the Department of
Agriculture is planning to obtain the
co. cooperation of the division Of mill
tary aeronautics in establishing an
aerial fire patrol for the protection
of national forests. This was indi-
Gated in letter from the bureau

to the use of aircraft in fire patrol
Of the national forests" says John S.
Hall. acting forester, in the letter.
"I believe they could be used to ex-
ccllent advantage. The forest service,
however, is not prepared to purchase
and operate a sufficient number of
aircraft. We should like to have the
cooperation of the division of military
aeronautics."
Men outside the government service
who are interested in timber con-
servation believe that vast acreages
could be safeguarded from re if the
government would turn over to the
forest service some of the military
aircraft which it is now planned to
auction off.
1t is further suggested that air.
planes manned by experienced mill
tary pilots could also be transferred
TO the weather bureau and that metc-
geological work would be materially i'm

Carriers Are Lucky

EDMONTON, Alberta. Jan. TO-
There will be no premature peace cele-
bration at Fort Mcpherson, Canada,
seventy miles south Of the Arctic
Ocean, for Fort Mcpherson will not
know that the war is over until Janu-
ary 26 or thereabouts.
The news Will reach this trading
post in the semi-annual Arctic mail
which left Fort McMurray, proposed
terminal of the Alberta & Great
Waterways Railway, by dog team on
December /. The news is included
in 250 pounds of mail carried by two
sledgcs, pulled by ten dogs each, and
driven by veteran "mushers."
The distance is 1900 miles as the
crow fies> but considerably longer
over the frozen Athabasca and Mac
kensie rivers.
The hardened drivers will rest a
week at Fort Mcpherson. then begin
the long trek bacE to civilization
The territory traversed includes the
great barrens deep under snow that
begins falling in September. The
barrens are known for bizzards which
sweep from the frozen sea across un-
obstructed leagues of snow covered
and uninhabited wilderness.

LONDON, Jan. Buying homes is

Der of Yankee fighters who were con-
valescents at Romsey Camp. England.
"A How to Buy Home" lecture,

stuff about real estate purchasing, has
been one of the most popular drawing
cards in the Red Triangle programme.
not only soldiers but American nurses
having exhibited q keen interest in Mr.
Jefferys exposition Of the home buying
problem.
This series of lectures on real estate,
lnaugurated by the educational depart
ment of the American Y. NJ. G.. A., has
proved surprisingly popular in the
hospital at Romsey. The convalescent
soldiers learned not only the theory
and practise of rent. profit and in
terest, unearned increment,' and all
about deeds, leases, liens and the vari-
Gus systems of taxation, but they got
lot OF history along with their realty
igations
They were particularly interested in
the Y. Nj. G.. A. teachers views on
feudalism from the time of William
the Conqueror and learned to compare
national systems of land tenure. When
the soldier reaches home. the "only
glrl' is going to hear lot of high
brow talk along with the more practical
matter OF acquiring a home. And our
soldiers are going to be more of a
