all motor vehicle owners using the
highways of Arizona. The Automo-
bile Club of Arizona has logged and
signed hundreds of miles of Arizona
highways, using a standard road sign
on which the information concerning
the road is plainly printed. These
road signs are to be found in the
towns and cities of Arizona direct
ing the strange motorist the best
route through the community. They
are found in the desert, where a di-
version point creates a need for cor
rect information; they are found in
the mountains, giving warning Of
dangerous curves and steep hills; the
motoring public use these Club signs
without thinking of the cost and
trouble involved in their erection,
and the non-club member is served
just the same as the member of the
Automobile Club of Arizona, whose
cooperative assistance has made the
erection of the signs possible.
Another phase of the projection
given members by the Automobile
Club of Arizona is it's legal depart
ment, the Automobile Club has re-
tanned the best legal talent in Ari-
zona to look after the interest of
Club members should trouble arise
when motoring in the state. Over
thirty Of the best lawyers located
in the principal towns and cities of
Arizona are ready to defend the Club
members rights when needed, give
advice on many questions arising
from ownership of automobiles and
Arizona. This legal service often
proves of much value to members
having accidents in strange COM
munities.
The Automobile Club of Arizona
has an insurance department through
which members automobiles are in
sured in reliable mutual companies
at a considerable saving to the own
er members
The Automobile Club of Arizona
has contracts with sixty-odd garages
and service stations by which the
showing of membership card of
the Automobile Club Of Arizona will
insure prompt, efficient service at
reasonable charge The Automobile
Club of Arizona has contracts with
thirty-twO towing service garages
over the state, by which the motor
ing member whose car becomes dis
abled can summons help and know
It will be forthcoming If the me-
chanic can make repairs that will en-
able the car to proceed within thir-
ty minutes there is no charge to
the Club member with a paid up
to tow the disabled car to a repair
garage, the first five miles is free
service If a longer distance is COW
cred, the cost to Club member is
computed at $1.50 per nour instead
of the usual charge of S1O0 or $15O
per mile.
Another feature of membership in
the Automobile Club of Arizona is
that the Club member falling into
the hands of police, or highway pa

 Five smokers fires. Five men, as the writer has yet to see woman smoke in the woods, were careless They threw their cigarette butts into some moss or dry grass and went mer- rily on. If these five had staid home or had used chewing tobacco, many acres of trees would be green today.
 Then three farmers burned brush and the fires got away from them. Perhaps little foresight would have prevented these fires, such as a cou- pie of pails of water handy with a sack or two for beating out the flames.

FOREST FIRES
 TOO NUMEROUS

During the forest fire season of 1924 there was a total of SS fires reported by Forest Service agents within the bounds of the Chugach National For est. Seventy-one of these were fires on or near the right-of-way of the Alaska Railroad and six were of un- known origin. Six were started from camp fires. Five were started by smokers, and brush burning increased the number three more.
 The fires on or near the right-of-way of the railroad were caused chiefly by sparks from locomotive stacks. As the season progressed the employees of the railroad improved the spark ar resters and toward the end of the fire period there was a notable improve ment Further improved arresters will be used this season and carefully watched As defects show up they will be corrected This season will show a marked decrease in this type of fire
 Six fires were caused by abandoned camp fires. This means that six campers at least walked off, leaving their camp fire burning. They did not put it out with water or scatter the coals. They were absolutely indiffer- ent as to what might happen, as they were through with that part of the woods few buckets of water would have put them all out and the sorry

Territory of Alaska, Office of the Gov ernor, Juneau
 A PROCLAMATION
 By proclamation of the President of the United States and in conform ity with the action of the Governors of various states, the week of April 27 to May 3, inclusive, 1925, has been set apart as American Forest Week, , when all patriotic citizens are asked to give thought to the forests and unite in the common task of forest conservation and renewal"
 The President wiseley says:
 "Our forests ought to be put to work and kept at work. l do not minimize the obstacles that have to be met, nor, the difficulty of changing old ideas and practices. We must put our hands to this common task. 1t is not enough that the Federal, State and local governments take the lead. There must be a change in our national attitude. Our industries, our land owners, our farmers, all our citi- zens must learn to treat our for ests as crops, to be used but also to be renewed. We must learn to tend our woodlands as care fully as we tend our farms"
 Alaska is blessed with an abundant timber supply. Here "the rich and magnificent gift that nature bestowed upon us," has not been "too freely spent" as in the States. Here, too our forest reserves, thanks to protective climatic conditions, have been singu- larly immune from the devouring ele- ments of fire. But in less favored and unguarded regions of the interior, countless acres of valuable timber are annually laid waste and the present and future supply thus seriously inn paired and jeopardized. To this and kindred dangers Alaska should give timely heed.
 Therefore, a proper observance of American Forest Week, with thought full consideration of pending and pros pective problems and patriotic coop eration for their safe solution, is ear nestly enjoined upon all citizens of the Territory.
 Given under my hand and the seal of the Territory of Alaska, in Juneau, the capital, this fourth day of April, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred twenty-five and of the independence of the United States of America the one hundred forty-ninth (SeaD Y SCOTT c. BONE,
