ELLIOTT MERCANTILE HAS I MODERN CLEANING MILL About 100 men who will comprise the forest guard fo-ice of the Mt. Hood national forest started Wedf nesday night at the Bear Springs for est camp on the Wapinitia highway about 25 miles from Government camp to attend a three day training course which started Thuisday morn ing. The training is in general charge o f assistant foiest supervisor Foster Steele while junior forester Max Becker is in actual charge o f the training progiam while veteran for est guard Dave W alker will be in ac tual charge o f the camp looking after subsistence and transportation re- quiiements. The guards are given training in the spotting o f fires from lookouts and in smoke chasing which means being able to find small fires after they have once been located by tri angulation methods. Training is also given in actual fire suppression me thods and a special course is given to men who are likely to be called upon to act as foremen, sector bosses, straw bosses, etc, in the event of large fires. An important part o f thi instructions deal with public contacts in whieh the various fire laws a r i explained and instructions given in how to apply them. Experienced guards are used to a large extent as instructors under the guidance o f the various district ran gers. For the benefit o f inexperienced men there are demonstrations o f var ious fire fighting equipment such a:; tanker trucks, pumps, etc. In addition to the Tegular fire guard force which will be employed this season there will be 5 stanby fire suppression crews comprising a total o f 45 men will be engaged and assigned to stretegic locations on the west side o f the forest. When not en gaged in actual fire suppression du ties these crews will work on various projects such as road construction, falling o f snags along roads, clean7 up o f dead material along roads, etc. In case o f need their services will be available fo r fires on other fo r est units. In endeavoring to prevent the ec- currence o f man-caused fires 8 addi tional so-called “ prevention guards” will be employed who will maintain a careful check on industrial opera tions and on tiavelers in the forest.
