In 1895, ne- gotiations were 'begun between the two countries but broke off after pro- tracted and bitter sessions, The issue had remained fairly dormant until a little more than two years a go when Joseph Robert (Joey) Smallwood, 48, took up the cause, and, almost single- haudedly, workin g 18 hours a day, he democracies soy tmg Newfoundland to confederation.

H. Zavitz. The problem has been exer- cising forestry experts increasing ly of late, and some have felt that they could virtually seta date by which the hard maple would have become a tree of the past, as seldom seen as, the black walnut. The hard maple has a every special, place in the hearts of Canadians and its leaf is our national emblem. Apart fro m its commercial value it would , be a national disaster if our hard maples become extinct. Our beautiful and shady maple trees are a vital part of both town and country landscapes.
