Mana- ger of the Lower Ottawa Forest Protective As- sociation, have resulted during the month of May in the erection of a 42-foot lookout tower and a ranger camp on Devil's Mountain in the township of Robertson. Telephone lines were constructed to the extent of 51/2 miles and connect with the Lievre Telephone Company, which in turn meets the Bell at Buckingham. This will give the man- ager quick connection from his Ottawa office with the lookout tower, and will also link the rangers together in an effective way. The tower is built on the highest peak of Devil's Mountain and furnishes one of the most commanding positions in the Laurentians, over- looking the watersheds of the Gatineau and Lievre rivers.
