KEEP CLOSE GUARD
OVER THE FORESTS

The season Of the year is at hand
when there should be an increased
vigilance to prevent forest fires. The
forests lands are beginning to dry out
and fires at this season are moro
serious than at any other time Of the
year. In recognition Of this fact the
Conservation Department is increas-
ing its number Of rangers, and citi-
zens generally are asked to render
them every assistance in their power
not only in putting out fires, but in
guarding against their occurance.
Fires in the forest not only destroy
the trees, which are becoming scarcer
and more valuable yearly, but they
also destroy or permanently injure
the ranges, destroy the nesting
places Of birds and squirrels and
other small animals, and do an in
finite amount Of injury otherwise.
In increasing its force of rangers
the Conservation Department hopes
to minimize the injury done by these
fires, but it cannot hope to succeed
to any extent unless it has the earn.
est cooperation Of the people Of the
neighborhood. The deliberate setting
fire to forests by ill-informed persons,
for one purpose or another, is now
prohibited by law, and serious penal.
ties are attached to the custom. This
setting fire to the woods for the pur.
pose Of improving the range, or Of
destroying ticks, was some years ago
not uncommon, and heavy price is
now being paid for the illadvised act.
Forest fires injure, they do not i'm
prove the range, and they do not kill
ticks. There is no benefit to result
from their occurrence in any case.
Their effect is always bad, and no
valid excuse can be found for their
practice. They annually destroy mill
ions Of dollars worth of property and
at times are destructive Of human
life. Fires in the forests should be |
fought as vigorously as those in
settled communities, for while they |
are not as common they are usually
more injurious. the property loss in
each case being generally greater.

IN lS47 play by an American author was
produced in New York theatre. 1t was the
custom then. as long since, for Americans
themselves to believe that that which repre-
sented purest culture must come from over
seas.
Before the curtain rose on this new play. the
leading actor stepped before the footlghts and
read poem-prologue which scoffed at the idea
that an American could write drama, and
then rebuked the sneer by emphaticaly declar-
: that an American can. The audience
greeted the patriotic plea and the play with
cheers.
Since that day many Americans have written
many great plays. An American culture has
expressed itself as we'll in the field of fiction,
poetry and philosophy; in art. music and in
science.
Culture is just as much crop as corn. 1t is
the refinement of the product of the cultivated
field. Growing great crops, producing great
bulk we have refined our output into the best
makes of food and clothes the world has ever
known. From the earth we dig both gold and
iron ore, and through the refining processes
we produce the delicately intricate watch.
The genius that can dig out the hillside and
convert it into watch can find the melody Of
the brook in the string of the violin.
An American pianist who had acquired inter
national note went abroad to play With the
skill of 1922 she had the frai faith of l847, and
had to go abroad to discover America.
