The British and Canadian population
of British Columbia was at that time
little over a quarter of a million, but
within very few weeks of the . sounding
of the tocsin, five and twenty thousand
fighting men had sailed for England or
were marshaled ready to march to war;
nearly 10 per cent of the allied popula
tion in the province, a record never even
approached before In so short a time, in
all the history of war.
It was not, however, quite as won
derful as it looked, because the total
was considerably augmented by hundreds
of keen eyed men from over the line.
men who when being attested and giv
ing their province as British Columbia,
pronounced it oddly, sounding like Ore
gon or Washington, or some other out
landish names.
So British Columbia marched to the
sound of guns and for four stricken
years their thirsty bayonets drank deep,
and' more British Columbians were al
ways forthcoming to fill their depleted
ranks.
Ail the World knows whose bodies
barred the gates to Calais -at second
Tpres, when the first poison gas of the
Hun rolled back the allied forces, and
all the world saluted the unbroken
ranks of the British Columbians when
those shattered bodies were found by the
reinforcements. And yet they were the
first to quit In this present world dry

The forest service has done a great
work in reducing the grades and making
