Citizenship Day" and IS looked upon
as an opportune time to instil the
meaning of citizenship, not only in

ters. are pointed out as appropriate
subjects for the citizenship campaign,
upon their attainment of voting age.

bare hands, he said. But il they try
TO run I sic Jack my bulldog. on
them He always catches them.
Sometimes he just plays with them
until I slip my net over.
Stewart admits he is probably the
most hated man in the city. He would
forsake his vocation, which he has
followed by a short time. If he were
not trained as a prize fighter Daily
he receives threats from irate dog
owners but he does not let that worry
him.
The average number OF dogs caught
by Stewart is thirty a day. Evening
IS the best time to catch the dogs, &C
cordinE TO Stewart When the sun
Eoes down the children believe the
dog catcher is in bed and SO turn
their pets loose. AS a result they are
often captured.
The dog catcher is paid 50 cents a
head for each dog after the first four
captured. Stewart has made as high
as s2S in one day. The dogs are held
in the pound for forty-eight hours. II
they are not claimed at the end OF
that time they are painlessly killed.

directed. A flight over the Cana
dian Pacific Rockies was made in

tude Of their observations and the
value Of the air service may be
CLEANED from the following rec
ords. The patrol that covers the
country west of Revelstoke in the
Canadian Rockies--including VAN
couver Island - embracing the
Fraser and Lower Thompson VAL
leys as well as the Shuswap Lake
region, spent 438A hours in the
air last summer and flew $4,000
miles, using four HIS 81 Flying
Boats and one F3 Twin Engine
Boat. By means of these craft it
is possible to travel swiftly great
distances and over sections mac
cessible to the fine ranger who
must depend on his canoe and own
sturdy legs to cover his beat.
Air patrols make reconnaissance
Of the country over which they fly,
which are Of inestimable value.

! Fire is the greatest menace to
Canada's 100000 square miles of
forests, a menace that has baked
mans puny fighting efforts until
today. Now the Canadian govern
ment has added an aerial fleet and
force to its army of fire rangers
and the dreaded devastating de-
mon Forest Fire" is in a fair way
to be checked.
These air patrols are under the
supervision of the Forestry Branch
of the Department of the Interior
which has divided the country into
sections and allotted to each an air
patrol. The flying machines are
equipped with wireless apparatus
for reporting new fires and the
progress of old ones, they also
often assist the fire fighters by
bringing them supplies.
