PATRIOTISM AND FOREST FIRES
AV ith a three-day holiday in sight for most of our
citizens, many will be planning to celebrate the Fourth
of July by camping or fishing trips into the forested re
gions which are so inviting at this time of year. In addi
tion to seeking pleasure and recreation, it is well to re
member that this is a day for patriotic thought, and for
a consideration of our national greatness—past, present
and future.
Forest economists have impressed upon us the fact
that our abundant forests and forest industries are one
of the foundation stones in our national greatness; that
reforestation is necessary if we are to continue this na
tional greatness; and that forest fires are the greatest
enemy, both of the forest resources and of reforestation.
Statistics show that from 70 to 90 per cent of our forest
fires are man-caused—unnecessary. Foresters tell us
that the woods are abnormally dry and the fire hazard
great this year.
Every visitor to the forested regions can make Jiis
patriotism practical this Fourth of «inly by preventing
fires—by putting every camp fire absolutely out; by
breaking every match and pinching out every cigar or
cigarette stub. All fireworks should be left at home.
There is no place for them in the woods—the hazard is
too great, and the risk unnecessary. Better than all the
noise and temporary brilliance of pyrotechnical dispalys
are the woods preserved, green and alluring, for present
and future enjoyment.
TAKING JOY OUT OF VACATIONS
V\ bile the ultra-careful and the pessimists tend
take the joy out of vacations tor those who will listen to
them by issuing warnings against not only every possible
danger, from poison ivy to rattlesnakes, hut also all the
evils they van imagine, prudence nevertheless will rec
ognize that there is demand for reasonable care when so
journing in the country. Although one should not go
forth on a vacation equipped or fortified as if to tour
jungle for ferocious beasts or venomous reptiles, over
looking that the main purpose of the trip is rest or to
free the mind of ordinary care by a change of scene and
occupation, there is nothing like carelessness to take the
joy out of an outing.
It is not necessary to suspect all water when 011 .
trip. Confidence can he placed in the supplies of reput
able hotels or hoarding houses and in the average spring
recommended for a camp site. Where there is the least
ground for suspicion, however, no risks should he taken.
Better put in the time necessary to boil the water than to
come home with typhoid.
There may be times when warning taxes patience
but the real enemy of the vacationists is the spirit of care
lessness that neglects every precaution.
After all, William Jennings Bryan is a liancly man
to have around a national convention.

A female butterfly has only one

love is not of her own choosing
however, for the males will have
nothing to do with a female who
has once mated. No m atter how

cannot a ttra c t new lovers after

loves but once, then dies.
