FOR SALE
If
you toss a burning match into the woods, you’re a fire
bug, just as surely as though you had set fire to a house.
Most of the houses in America today . . . and most of
the houses of tomorrow ... started as growing trees. Trees
destroyed by forest fire don’t build houses, or make paper, or
the thousands of other products we make from wood. They
don’t create jobs or pay taxes.
It’s up to every one of us to prevent needless forest
fires . . . for most of them were caused by us in careless
moments. One blazing match can destroy thousands of acres
of growing trees.
