Sir Arthur declares that the

Spiritual warnings of other dis

STRESSES j. S. LOSS
BY FOREST FIRES
Lecturer Tells School Pupils
of Financial Sacrifices Due
to CareIessnesS.

The severe loss TO this country,
both financially and esthetically,
caused by forest fires was stressed
by H N Wheeler, chief lecturer OF
the United States Forestry Service,
in an address recently delivered to
the pupils of the Sidwells' Friends
School, 1911 l street. He pointed out
that 100000 acres of forest were
burned last year, and stated that
nearly all of these fires were caused
by the carelessness Of campers and
others, who did not take the trouble
to extinguish the fires while they
were still in small areas. To help to
combat the terrible loss of timber by
fires and careless cutting, President
Roosevelt authorized the establish
ment of national forests in 1905, of
which there are 149 at the present
time, principally in the Pacific Coast
States.
Heroism of Rangers Lauded.
Mr.. Wheeler mentioned the heroism
OF the forest rangers in combating
fres which may seem harmless at
first, but which develop into raging
furnaces miles long when famed by
high winds. Many rangers have lost
their lives when trapped by the ter
rible fires and dense smoke surround
ing them on all sides. Another sad
feature Of forest fires is the great
loss of animal and bird life through
fire. Deer. moose. bear. qual and
many other wild creatures are killed
by unnumbered thousands when Are
sweeps across forest. and, since
many OF these species are becoming
rare, he urged the public to protect
them by extinguishing fires whenever
possible and by always strictly OBJ
serving the game laws.
The Government does not hoard the
timber growing in its national for
ests. Mr. Wheeler asserted, but cuts
it judiciously, leaving the smaller
trees to reseed the forest. This meth
cd not only helps to supply the coun-
try with large Quantities Of wood
each year. but also. by keeping A
valuable reserve OF trees in each
tract it prevents floods by leaving
the ground spongy enough TO absorb
the excess moisture during heavy
rains.
Cites Striking Contrast.
He contrasted the water control Of
territory thus protected, with the land
drained by the Yellow River, in
China, whose banks have been de
nuded Of every stick of wood and
pointed out that the Chinese foods.
destroying millions of lives, were
largely caused by the lack of trees at
the headwaters and along the banks
of this river.
The growing popularity of camp
ing in the national forests was proved
by the fact that 10000, 900 people Wis
tied them in 1924. Mr.. Wheeler urg ed
that even more people should follow
the lure OF the forest many Washing
tonians finding especially accessible
the Shenandoah National Forest. only
four hours from this city.
