selves with this great task Of clearing the

sonq-birds Of our SUNNY South, and which
threatens to hush forever the CHEEKY notes
OF our sweetest and gayest Songsters OF the

Enthusiastic meetings have been held from
time TO time and the local committeeman
have been fortunate III securing some very
interesting data and some very eloquent men
to plead the case Of the little inScct-deStroy-
mo sone-bid. Among those who have spoken
recently is the Rev. Noel J. Allen OF Camp
Humphreys who is directing the crusade
against the pest in Virginia Prizes nave been
offered by the State for the greatest number

would be distributed in case of

that whoever took part in the ar
rest OF Morris would certainly
share in the money, he secured a
big supply Of food and returned
TO Greene.
The sequel was that Sheriff

Destruction of Indiana forests
through sheer carelessness' in leav-
ing burning camp fires, in the words
of Newman T. Miller, State fire mar
shall, has grown to such ar alarming
extent that the department is plan
ming immediate recourse to the law.
Thousands of dollars worth of
timber. property and structures have
been destroyed during the last few
weeks, reports received by Miller
show. Several thousand acres Of
Brown County timber, some of the
most promising virgin growth in the
State, has been consumed
Miller said he could not attribute
the unparalleled losses to criminal
intent, but to plan carelessness.
An official in MiIler's office today
reported the recent loss Of four
cottages at a lake near Rome City,
in Noble County, valued at nearly
&c., 400, caused. he said, by campers
falling TO extinguish a camp fire.
The department is investigating a
forest fire in jennings County in
which a twenty acre" tract Of timber
belonging to Charles w. Plough,
Roanoke farmer was completely dew
astated. Report Of the fire was made
to Charles c. Dean, State forester.
The fire is alleged to have been
caused by sparks from a brush fire on
neighbours farm. Dean, in let
ter to Plough. said he regretted In
adequacy Of the present State laws.
Prosecutions for carelessness in
building fires may be made under a
special law, Miller said. The law
creating the office Of State fire mar
shall also specifies certain penalties.
Fines for allowing fires TO spread to
adjacent property range from IS to
500. TO which may be added Jail sen
fences Up to $50 fine may be Inn
posed for carelessly allowing fires to
start in woodland and the person re-
sponsible may he held liable for all
damages.
The fire marshal is authorized TO as
slst prosecuting attorneys in pressing
cases. Miller said most fires started
from camp fires. cigarettes and pipes.
