Page 7 The recent issue of Bush News carries a comparatively large proportion of news items on the forest fire menace, it is meant to convey a message aimed at all citizens who use the forest- lands - either for work or for re- creation and sport. A tiny spark is . sufficient to transform a peaceful forest into a fiery inferno which not only destroys the trees but damages the soil and brings a scorching, horrible death to all living things in the area which are unable to escape the flames, Probably, there is nothing short of a war which is as awesome and terrible as a savage forest fire, which, given the right conditions, can turn aside all the efforts of man and machine to suppress it, Fire is a useful thing to mankind when it is harnessed - but when it gets out of hand, as in the case of a forest fire, its usefulness is turned into awful destruction and death. It is hoped that this message will help in some way to con- vey to its readers the tragedy and far- reaching impact caused by forest fires. LET CAUTION BE THE WATCHWORD IN THE WOODS THIS FIRE SEASON. 0-0-0 ONE DOLLAR WILL BUY 10,000 MATCHES ---~- ONE MATCH WILL DESTROY $1,000,000,
