Have you ever thought about the i'm
portance of wood? Did it ever occur
to you that if there was no wood. the
articles manufactured from wood
would have to be made of some kind
OF metal, brick, etc? If some one were
to ask: What are most of your sur
roundings made Off" what would you
! do? You would look around you and
note: "All the houses in this town
are made of wood that piano there is
wood, so is this chair and that bed
About all the furniture is wooden,
guess; the windows are glass but the
castings are wooden this mat is of
straw o,-wood fibre, and as you

self is made of wood. This beautiful
little basket is made of birch bark. and
as the fire in the little heater before
you crackles and sputters and then
bursts into flame you realize that the
stove is filled with wood.
'Why, I never noticed how import
ant wood is" you will say. "And
there's the mail train''-that reminds
YOU that there are millions of feet of
lumber made into railroad cars, ties,
ships and even 9eroplanes every year.
There's sister sitting in the shade of
that big tree. Guess I'll go, too, but
first l must answer that question
about what my surroundings are made
Of. Oh, we'll, I'll just put down
WOOD in big letters and let 'er go at

balls are much lighter than metal ones
would be--or rest in the shade of the
big fir in the yard.
1t is hard to realize how essential
wood is and how are we going to have
wood if we let our forests burn up
or in any way be destroyed? The best
and only way to have a quantity of
wood is to preserve our national for
ests.
Trees that have taken hundreds of
years to grow can burn in a single
day or night. The fire-fighters might
took at some towering tree that is all
.ablaze and say:
mighty fine tree-shame to let It
burnt" But do they realize the number
of school desks. fence posts, telephone
poles, etc, that is burning up in that
one tree and hundreds of others like
it? They probably don't. If they but
but could, they would renew their eff
forts at fire fighting and presto: the
fire would be out.
When a lighted match a burning
cigarette or cigar, or anything of the
kind is thrown carelessly away what
is liable to happen? That match will
light on some dry leaves or needles.

Mr. Wind and fans the smoldering log
into flame; then a nearby cedar or
fir will catch on fire, and soon thous-
ands of dollars worth of valuable
timber is burning
Now, think of what you owe to wood
and then make a resolution. a firm
resolution to-not to throw awav
burning matches or tobacco: put out
all of your camp fires; and be sure
to put out all fires you find unmatched.
