LET'S FACE IT
155,000 forest fire occurred in
the U. S. last year more than
400 a day!
The tragedy is that 9 out of 10
were caused by well-meaning
people who were careless.
This destruction ruined 10 mil
lion acres of forests and recre
ational areas, damaged valuable
watersheds and killed animal
and birds by the thousands.
Yes, and humans lost their
lives too.
Pledge yourself to be careful
with matches, smokes and
campfires. Help stop this
shameful waste. Remember
Only You Can Prevent Forest
Fires!
