come to be the most dangerous
foe of conservation. What it would
take avaricious man generations
to accumulate for selfish ends, de
mon fire eats up in an evening.
While laws and regulations look
ing to the conservation of natural
resources should go on a pace,
these would seem to have but
academic value in comparison
with the crying need of some com
prehensive and effective move
ment which will make the annual
devastation by forest fires less
seasonable certainty.
