This is the time of the year when the danger of forest fires is at its height. From‘now until the fall rains come those who have occasion to go into the woods, whether for berry pick- ing, camping, hunting or fishing, or who travel along woodland trails or who traverse highways through the woods by auto should be on their guard against fire. Officials are anxious that those who seek the guiet of the forests and who like to visit | quaint dells or to linger along creeks and brooks and_ rivers should enjoy themselves to the fullest extent. They have no ob- jections to camp fires and only ask that fires be kept under con- trol and that every party build- ing a fire see that it is fully ex- tinguished before leaving. It is a simple request. Neglected camp fires are one of the worst sources of danger. Smokers should not throw | matches carelessly to one side. The simple rule of breaking a match in two before throwing it aside will do much to prevent) fires. No lighted cigar stub or cigarette butt should be tossed away. They should be put out before being left. Surely these are not intoler- |able requests in return for the privilege of enjoying the great outdoors. Each individual can do and should do his part. Let those who go into the woods practice a few simple precautions and human lives and thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of property will be saved. INFLUENZA COST. That the influenza epidemic | took a toll of ten lives for every one lost in war and that is cost the big insurance companies $100,000,000 and made Ameri-} | cans realize they are mortal are | the rather startling statements | made before an eastern gather-| ing of life insurance leaders. The | loss of war to America was ter-| rifie yet these experts say that} influenza regarded in many cir-| cles in various parts of the coun- | try, more or less of a joke, de- | manded ten lives for each Ameri- | can that the gods of war requir- | ed in battle. | Such a_ tremendous total} shows that it is necessary for each person to care for his or her | health. When epidemics take} place then it is that the public} officials act. But if individuals would be on guard, take precau- | tions to maintain their personal | heath, the disease epidemics | would be more rare and when they did sweep over the land the loss of life would not be so large. | | KEEPING AT IT. While most people regard the} matter as more or less of a joke nevertheless the persons who are} interested in things scientific continue to try and get messages from other planets, and Mars in particular. On dates that are| considered favorable because of ! operators, accordine to reports, are sitting for hours at their in-| struments trying to catch unu- sual signals. In August it is claimed Mars will be closer to the earth than| it will be again for the next 500 | years. Then a great attempt will | be made to receive and to send sort of an exchange with Mars. | The whole thing sounds fantas-| tie and perhaps it is, but man’s attempts to accomplish what) seems to be foolish and impos- | sible have in many instances} brought forth facts that have} greatly added to the store of} knowledge for the world.
