dorsed unique project Of the
WesternF Forestry and G Conservation
association TO supply 100000 pub

cup puzzle which shows a way to
avoid public drinking cups and
also teaches many lessons about
the forest fire evil. A square piece
of paper, printed on both sides,
with tumble of broken text and
pictures printed in bright colors,
when folded on dotted lines pre-
sents, in a series of four consecn-
tive completed pictures, the growth
of forest fire from carelessness
with match to scene of final
destruction. At the same time
are developed a set Of rules and

completed cup suggests learning
how to fold it out of any paper
