General John Jacob Pershing will join the loiifr, illustrious lust of former comnmnderg-in-chief of the army of the United States. This nation should pause for a moment 011 that day and, while paying a small meed of tribute to a great Amer ican while he still lives, consider what this generation of Americans owes to the men who more than any other class made the United States of today possible. : What would this country be todny if there had been 110 'Washington, .no Grant, no Miles, no Pershing? True, perhaps the places of all of these could have been filled " )y;othcrs.i JSut it was Washington who led the colonial trohps to victory, Grunt who headed the Union hosts in iiity-five, Pershing whom the American crusaders fol lowed in France. ' . Pershing: commanded the largest army that ever fought under the Stars and Stripes. Companies, regiments, divi sions, armies they marched upon the enemy in France until more than two million troops were at Pershing's com mand, while more than that many were in camp on home soil. ' f "Illackjack" is beloved by Americans today as a great military leader who served the nation most faithfully and vaiorously whon the call came. Like Grant, there was little of the professional soldier about him. He has abun dantly earned the right to spend his remaining years free if the responsibility of official duties. Canadian Conservation 'That the lumber industry in Dritish Columbia is ex periencing a phenomenal boom is good news ; but still more gratifying is it that while the sawmills are working over time culling timber for shipment to all parts of the world foresters are on guard to see that the woodlands of the province arc not recklessly devastated. For the first time in the history of lumbering in North America conservation is being practiced while there is still time to make it ef ftctive. It is true that Conservation of timber resources is also being practiced in Alaska, hut Die situation there is somewhat different from what it is in V.ritish Columbia. In the Canadian province lumbering is an important busi ness while in Alaska the forests are in the possession of the government and there has been comparatively little cutting of the timber. ' ' The lumbermen of lliitish Columbia are treating the forests as a cixip, which, after having been harvested, is to be replanted. Heretofore lumbermen have handled the forests as if they were a mine; they took the position that the timber should be removed as quickly as possible, ji.st as one removes the minerals from a mine with the least delay, and that once the woodland was exhausted of ni' i(s tree growth its usefulness as a producer of timber was over. The consequence of this practice has been that forest lands have been swept bare anil the saw-mills de pendent 011 them have gone out of business. In liritish Columbia they are proceeding with the as sumption that there is always to be a timber supply and that lumbering is to lie n permanent business. Kventually all countries will have to preserve their forests in the same manner if they hope to escape a timber famine. Ilussiniis niv permitted to l.uwH item stntes.
