A forest fire is raging today in the Birch Bark Lake district 23 miles east of Paddockwood, which is about 25 miles north of this city. According to forestry officials, the fire covers between four and five sections of young pine growth and dried slash where a fire swept a few years ago. HOLDINGS THREATENED The Pas Lumber Company holdings are being threatened. The fire commenced some days ago, and fire gang was sent out. Last night 15 more men were sent in to Pad-dockwood by truck from where they will proceed by wagon or by foot to the scene of the fire.

The fire started near t. settlement. A forestry plane from Ladder Lake arrived here this morning enroute for the fire-swept area, taking equipment for fire fighting. They will also go to the Candle Lake country taking in supplies and intend making a general survey of the fires. Three other government planes are today flying north to Lac La Ronge, taking up a government survey party headed by the Hon.

A. C. Stewart, minister of highways. Dr. Laird, of Yorkton, G.

Whitmore and McCallum of Regina and a photographer. This la in accordance with the provincial governments intention to make a survey of the natural resources in the far north. The party will call on D. A. Hall, M.L.A., for Cumberland, at Lac La Ronge, and consult with him in regard to conditions In the northern districts.

not by any accident, but by the grace of God. "He took the keenest kind of interest In sport. None knew better than he that all work and no play results in dullness. But he had no taste for unwholesome pleasures. He loved people, mingling with them freely hut in all things exercised that discrimination that compelled the most reluctant to admit that he was only interested in whatsoever tilings are true, honest, just, pure, and of good report.

'tie had reuiarkaoie feeling and consideration 'or the lower oruers of creation. One felt he would not needlessly set foot upon a worm. A few days ago while seated in his wheel cnair im tile lawn ne had one of luu giuoms bring to n.m some of tile colts. 1.1 the bays of his activity ue liked nothing better than to take little children to the big barns, show them the mammotn horses and the frisky colts. It was only, one expression of his genuine love for all life.

One hesitates with clumsy words to approach the portal of their home. What such a man Is as husband and father for the most part breaks through language and escapes. He was a companion and confidant of his children. He stimulated their true ambitions, and rejoiced in their successes and pleasures. Their friends were his friends, always welcome In their hospitable home.

Good books, good music, good pictures, typified his taste. Outside the house his love, of flowers was everywhere in evidence. On the occasion of my last visit with hlffl. He asked me to go to see the flower garden, and gave his daughter Dorothy careful instructions to pick a bouquet of pansies for me to take home to the manse. I walked among the flower beds and marvelled at their number, arrangement and variety.

He knew them all, had planned and prospered them all. When the most intimate of all companions part company, it is well that the parting rest with God. For Mrs. Rutherford there is all the comfort in Heaven and on earth. The measure of her grief is the blessedness of their life together.

They loved and wrought, they hoped and prayed, they laughed and wept, they planted and reaped together. Heu, too, are the sumptuous furnishings of the soul, the unsearchable riches of memory and of hope and faith. Hope? Aye hope. For the end of this man was peace. Is that not what we all crave? Not the peace of insensibility, but that which comes through being essentially square with life.

This is the secret or victory. It is knowing Jesus Christ, whom to know is life eternal. The little streams of Paradise Are laughing as they run, For all the tears we shed on earth Are chmged to lovely springs of mirth. There are no 'tears in Paradise, -For all our weepings done. 'The little lanes of Paradise With friendly flowers are Bweet, For all the joys we could not keep, Are there, like children put to sleep; And when we come to Paradise They blossom at our At the close of the service, the great procession of mourners filed by the open coffin and waited out side until the body was taken to the hearse, the minister led the procession up the aisle to the door, the following acting as pall-bearers: C.

M. Hamilton, Prof. A. R. Greig, Prof.

J. A. Sharrard, Dr. M. R.

Bow, of Edmonton; J. M. McKay, of Winnipeg, and John MacKay of this city. A large number followed the hearse to Woodlawn cemetery where the minister conducted a short committal service. Representative citizens of this and other provinces this afternoon Joined with the people of Saskatoon to honor the memory of the late Dean W.

J. Rutherford of the College of Agriculture, University of Saskatchewan, and pay fitting tribute to his worth as a public servant, a foremost agricultural authority, a sportsman, a man who in his daily life followed closely his deep religious convictions and devoted much of his thoughts to the welfare of others. Dean Rutherfords long service to Saskatchewan and the Dominion, shortened possibly by his strenuous efforts as a member of the Royal Grain Commission six months ago, came to a close Sunday evening, when after a lengthy illness he passed away suddenly at his home on the university grounds. HIS GREAT SERVICE RECOGNIZED Recognition of his outstanding of vanished hands. They assure us they still live.

And in the perspective that opens up to the soft advance of memorys feet, so many things we thought big, dwindle to pettiness, and many we thought insignificant tower before us as the only ones that really matter. Some fear to walk the ways of memory. They are afraid they will be humbled, afraid that the recall of past battles will open old wounds. Not so the perfect man. For him the hour of memory la fellowship with Gods goodness great.

It brings us near the daily symbol of Sleep is one of the sweetest ministries God gives us. But it is a gentle lesson in parting. In a real sense we leave our friends when we embark in this strange world. We lean on the Eternal care. "And it Is a symbol of hope.

A new day Is coming. There will be food and raiment, strength for toil, comradeship, victories. There Is no hour more revelatory than sunset. The harness we wear for the days work is laid aside. What we appreciate then is what we are really attached to, what we really think it is worth while to have and to enjoy.

That reveals what we are. From time immemorial men have found God in the cool of the day. But it is fatally easy to miss or Ignore His presence, to esteem tawdriness rather than real beauty, to give keen attention to the jargon of greed and neglect the music of childrens play and prayer. "At the evening hour the perfect man revealB himself not by complete strength, beauty, intellectual power, but by perfect obedience to the essential purity, rightness, wholeness of Gods approved character. It is no fulsome eulogy to say that Dean Rutherford was essentially square with life.

There is no higher praise than this. Other and more sonorous voices than mine have acknowledged his services to the province and the country, indeed to the world wide interests of our great Industry agriculture. These utterances are very impressive. The citizens of this city and province will, however, claim him as their own. In a singularly appropriate editorial by which the local press paid tribute to his worth, it was service and the esteem and respect accorded him everywhere was given by prominent public men during the week and the great gathering In Knox United church this afternoon, where the Re J.

A. MacKenzie read an eloquent eulogy, was further evidence of this. Among those who were present to pay their last respects to a friend and colleague were the Hon. Chief Justice J. T.

'Brown, Regina, who was chairman of the Royal Grain Commission; A. Medley Auld, deputy minister of agriculture in the provincial government, representlifg the Government of Saskatchewan; J. H. Evans, deputy minister of agriculture for Manitoba, representing the Government of Manitoba; C. M.

Hamilton, former minister of agriculture In this province and now on the Board of Grain Commissioners; the University faculty, headed by the president, Dr. W. C. Murray, and a host of others, including leaders in the business and professional life of Saskatoon. There was a private service' attended by members of the bereaved family and the pall-bearers at the residence at I oclock, the public service being at 2 o'clock.

The coffin, banked in an array of flowers, stood beneath the pulpit. The minister read from Psalm 37:37, Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright for the end of that man Is peace. He spoke of death as sleep, one of the sweetest gifts of God, and a symbol of hope, for sleep preceded a new day. He spoke of Dean Rutherford's personal life, his love for the church, his regard for his fellow man, his taste fpr all that was good and beautiful and said humanitarianism was rooted in the mans religion. The full text of the address follows: At eventide, on the first day of the week the soul of William John Rutherford left his earthly home and passing through the gates of sunset, entered the Father's presence.

"There Is no time of the day when heaven and earth meet so naturally as the sunset hour. Childhood knows this. remainder of the semi-macadam program, now under construction, is being built on the local improvement basis. The curbs are in connection with the above work. Electrical distribution system will be Improved and extended to meet rapid expansion taking place as a result of the city's growth.

Certain amount of replacement and bringing to date, is also required. Sewer and water house connections, and water meters, are just the ordinary expenditures that have to be made every year to provide for connecting up of new houses built. These connections are not a charge on the tax rate. The cost is borne by those receiving the connection. The proposed concrete bridge is to replace the wooden structure across the ravine in central park.

Proposed air harbor improvements include establishment of a ilgnting system permitting planes to land at night, in addition to other needed improvements including seeding of the field to grass, levelling and similar work. Night flying is to be started as soon as the lights are erected Certain amount of double tracking and completion of some work started last year in improving tbe street railway equipment is provide for by tbe street railway bylaw. No new cars are to be purchased this year. The largest proposed expenditure is for the City Hospital. This amount, $350,000.

will build a new wing, urgently needed and a portion of a nurses home which nas been required for some years. The carrying charges, according to present plans are to be met out of revenue from the hospital. This will mean that the building is to be done out of profit and not as a charge against the taxpayers. The proposed expenditure of $25,000 for barns at the exhibition grounda, provides for tho moving of some barns from their present location to a new site near the winter fair building. These barns are to be rebuilt and some others may be erected.

This will make possible holding win- ter fairs with the stock housed conveniently near the arena. The Improvement will mean much to the success of winter fairs here, it is stated. 1. Semi-macadam on Avenue from Eleventh Street to Victoria Street 2. Curbs 3.

Extension to Caswell Hill school 115,000 In urging the support of the ratepayers of the fourteen bylaws, the mayor points out that there 1b not a tingle proposed improvement that la not urgently required. Further, by the passage of the bylaws considerable work will be provided for clti-sena now unemployed. This applied particularly to the water matnB, electrical distribution system, barns at the exhibition grounda, and the erection of buildings at the city hospital and the extensions for the schools. In view of the fact that aeveral hundred citizens are now out of employment the provision of work Is an Important consideration. While some might argue that conditions were not the best, the mayor considered that from the standpoint of the city It was In keeping with principles of sound finance to make expenditures of the nature proposed this year.

In the case of the majority of the proposed expenditures the amount which had to be repaid next year was comparatively small. In some Instances the repayment period waa over 30 years. This applied to the proposed Improvements at the lilt)' Hospital. Further In this particular case the repayment would not come out of the pocket of the ratepayers, but from the revenue of the hospital. The semimacadam bylaw for $8,400 Is the only proposed stretch of roadway to be built this year as a charge against the city as a whole.

Tiny echoes, wondrously sweet, which we missed in the hurry of the day, things that escaped our notice, long vistas fading into ineffable loveliness, the breath of God on the waiting soul. Small bird voices, the casual ripple of flowing waters, little sighs of wind about the eaves like gentle protests against being hushed to sleep, tiny stars in the great sky, wisps of perfume released by dew from flower beds beneath the window, little signs of weariness on mothers face as she stooped to kiss us good night. Sunset brings heaven close to us. It is a symbol of memory.

No action was taken by the tail Merchants' Association as body on the question of organizing a system of retailer-owned wholesale supply houses.

A committee wa4 appointed, however, outside of the association at the R.M.A. convention in North Battleford today to in vestigate ways and means of secut ing for the retail trade a more advantageous system than they now enjoy by purchasing by means of co-operative retail-owned wholesale supply system. This decision was arrived at after one of the most lengthy and keenly debated discussions of the convention, and came after representatives of wholesale organizations had placed before the convention plans for assisting ie independent retailer to meet chain-store competition.

That is, it was an experiment as far as Canada was concerned. The convincing success It has attained is due in no small measure to the far-sightedness, the minute attention to detail, the patience, the ability, not only to im-. part instruction but to inspire students, that our friend brought to his task.

SCHOOL ACCOMMODATION NEEDED BROTHERLY HELPER IN GOOD WORK Referring to the Caswell Hill school extension bylaw today, Superintendent Oulton, of the Saskatoon public schools, stressed the need for school accommodation In the Caswell Hill district.

He had a special fondness for psalm tunes. Their stateliness appealed to him. When in Guelph he was a member of the quartet that gave leadership to praise for several years in Chalmers church. His attitude was always that of the hum-ble, reverent worshipper, and the brotherly helper In every good work. He lived In a real sense for his day and generation.

He was no narrow egotiBt lashed by unsleeping ambitions to lustrous goals. He strove for those achievements that would bless the many rather than the few. Even in his Illness he spoke to me several times about the concern he felt for the nurses in training. He was certain they should have more liberty for recreation, to enjoy fresh air and sunshine, more opportunity to attend church services. It was not the talk of a busybody trying to set forth certain matters in an unfavorable light to the prejudice of certain people, but a genuine concern for the welfare of a body of great public servants.

This was characteristic of the man. His humanitarianism was rooted in his religion. May I say that the country will greatly protit by a large increase of such men. There are many in positions of responsibility and in-tlence who have little or no place for the church in their scheme of things.
