Well it seems as if there is always
something going on at Wingham Dis-
trict High School, Very seldom do the
students spend an "average day,"
One day we all had our pictures
taken. Another day we had a debate
on the subject of the presidential
election in the States? Before the el-
ection, everyone wore buttons signify-
ing their choice for president. "I like
Ike" buttons were among the most
common. Nobody was able to persuade
Miss Heard to wear a "I go Pogo"
button. We suspect she is a secret
Democan or Republocrat,
Believe it or not, some studying
goes on at the W. D. H. S. The Christ-
mas exams start about November 20th,
or so. The Glee Club or some of the
musical classes are singing Christmas
carols already. Maybe it's closer than
we think!
By the way, will somebody please
tell Mr. Jackson that I would like a
baby turtle for Christmas. I am too
shy to tell him myself.

Isobel Dennis—"What's puppy love?"
George Hall—"Just a prelude to a
dog's life."
Mr. Jackson—"I like baby turtles so
much I keep my bath tub filled with
them all the time."
Visitor—"Oh my! What do you do
when your wife wants to take a
bath?"
Mr. Jackson—"Oh, I simply blindfold
them,"

dress was given by the Rev. W. R.
Tristram, of the Fordwich United
Church, who spoke from the text,
"Our hope is lost," Ezek: 37; 11, Tell-
ing of the hopes that were raised for a
better world at the end of the first
war, He stated that fulfillment of
these hopes was dependent on each
person's consecration to the task of
bringing about a better world.
Following the church service, mem-
bers of the Howick Legion and Ladies'
Auxiliary paraded to the Cenotaph
where Geo, Inglis was in charge of

bers.

It is said that the forests of any
land constitute a great economic re-
source, which, under competent man-
agement, need never be exhausted of
its wealth utilized on a renewable
basis, Forests are not merely a col-
lection of individual trees independent
of each other any more than London,
Kingston, Sudbury or Port Arthur, as
cities, are mere collections of individ-
ual, independent, men and women,
Like a city, a forest has a complex
community life of its own.
•A forest has its own soil and atmos-
phere, different both chemically and
physically from any other. It has a
temperature and climate of its own,
It has trees, plants and shrubs of a
kind peculiar to it. It has a resident
population, worms, insects, birds and
animals, Most important of all, the
members of a forest community live
together in an exact and intricate
system of competition and mutual as-
sistance which extends to and affects
all the inhabitants of this complicated
form of community life, just as hum-
ans must do in their cities,
Character of Own
Not only has each forest a character
all its own, because it is a community
of trees, plants and animals, but each
species of tree has its own peculiar
characteristics and habits, In a city
like Toronto, for instance, different
races of people like to concentrate
in different areas, In those areas they
feel close to each other because they
like the same things. In their chosen
sections, they live in accordance with
habits that distinguish each individual
race from all others.
Similarly, different species of trees,
pines and spruces, oaks and maples,
mature best in certain definite types
of locality. There they live in accord-
ance with definite 'habit patterns
which are as general and constant as
the characteristics that distinguish
different races of humans.
Many Varieties
Nature, in her great wisdom, placed
many varieties of trees on the land.
Perhaps she was not thinking primar-
ily of ultimate utilization by humans
but she could not have done better
had this been her design. In the for-
ests of Ontario are white pine, birch,
maple, oak and other trees suitable
for building homes, boats and other
recreational equipment, and making
furniture. Spruces, jackpine and other
species make pulp and paper; jack-
pine makes excellent railway ties. Ce-
dars help to make clothes closets
mothproof, they also make shingles
and other items. Certain trees contri-
bute to the manufacture of plywoods
and plastics, Even the by-products of
trees processed at the mills aro used
to make glues, vanillin and other
things of use to man.
Foresters of the .Department of
Lands and Forests take all of these
things into consideration in planning
the management of Ontario's vast for-
est areas. They know that an efficient
management policy must include; pro-
tecting the forest from fire and from
other abuses; improving the forest
by good management practice; the re-
storation of forests used up or de-
stroyed in the past; and the utiliza-
tion of forest trees as they mature. Of
further, and greater importance, they
must manage the Province's forests
on a sustained yield basis so that fut-
ure generations may also enjoy the
benefits that can be provided only by
forests.
