... and help

oolcouts, posted in high towers
keep watch over much of our forest
land.
But the best they can do is to spot
a fire after it has started. They know,
that that first wisp of smoke may be!
a conflagration within minutes.
But a far better way to protect our
forests is to prevent fires before they
start. Most of them can be prevented
because carelessness causes most of
them. Be sure your cigarette or match
is out before you throw it away.
