THE DECISION ON CHURCII
UNION
Church Union has been approved
by an Overwhelming majority of the
Presbyterian Assembly., ' And while..
there was a minority opposition of.
about one to three in the Assemly,
the minority when, taking the three
churches into consideration would be
more like one to Len. Peli
ieali
Y
speaking,' a minority "that can only
muster one in ten is a neghgigie con-
sideration. But there is no Duni-
bering or measuring spiritual
strength. The 'opposition, if it; de-
cides to' maintain+ a :seperate exist -
ante, Inay prove a veritable, Gideon's
Band, achieving great things for God.'
And the majority, like Jesurum, may
.wax fat' and' kick, •or become effete.
By their fruits they will be known.
If the minority 'would .bear,. good'
fruit, it immediately purge itself
of all that frets; if the majority will
avoid the -evils that beset bigness and
power, it willhumble itself and be
very magnanimous and; tolerant, and
consecrate its measures of 'unity,
physical and spiritual, to the affairs.
of the Kingdom. Let both majority
and Minority factors remember, that
they may have all that is really worth
while in common, that they are heirs
of ,,the same ' promises, and that
though there be may be temporary
separation, they are in fact funda-
mentally -aligned in purpose. There -

Front time to time .there comes up
to woodusers of all descriptions, (that
is, to ,practically everyone) the quos
tion as to what constitutes a "hard-
wood" tree as distinguished from a
"softwood" tree. Can we call the pop-
lar a."hardwood" when its wood is so
soft? And, conversely, can we speak
of hardpine as a "softwood" when its
wood is so much harder than that of
the poplar?
This is a ease where a term, appar-
ently quite definate, has acquired, an
altered meaning in use. A. "hard-
wood", tree is not necessarily a tree
whose wood i's hard a "hardwood
whose wood is hand as "hardwood
tree. Poplar, basswood, and tulip, or
"whitewood," fob Yinsgtance, :are 'all
-termed "hardwoods," although their
wood is 'comparatively soft; and, on
the other '.hand, hard pines and. yew
belong with the "softwoods," although
their wood: is much harder .than, that
of the "hardwoods" just mentioned.
The usage prevailing„ in the forest
services both federal. and provincial. in
Canada (and the, same may be said of
those of the United•States) is to ap-
ply the term "hardwood" to a .tree
that bears leaves, such 'as the maple,
oak, and ash, as distinguished from
those trees having needle-like foliage,
such as the pine and spruce, or scale -
like foliage, such as the cedar, which
are termed as "softwoods."
These latter are often described as
"evergreens," thopgh the tamarack
which is ' a softwood, sheds its fol-
iage in the autumn, and the mandrona
,in British Columbia, which is a hard-
wood, keeps its foliage all winter.
Noris the term "conifer"' or cone -
bearing 'tioe, altogether satisfaetoy;
the fruit of the yew (another soft-
wood) has the external appearance of
a beer btl o

In ten counties in 'Ontario the work
,of clearing has been so thoroughly
done that only five per cent, or less
