NO REST FOR FIGHTERS Forest fires purn hardest from early afterncon to abcut eight at night. But night means no rest for forest crews. While the fire is reasonebly quiet they must dig trenches, cut brush and timber slashways and suppress outl;ing spot-fires started by flying bark or branches, Until you have seen one you can't | imagine the incredible fury of a forest fire. They will burn over the space of a big city in an after- noon. A man on a horse can’t out- run one in rough country. They arrest people out west for throwing cigarette butts or match stubs out of automobile windows Many experienced timber men me- thodically tuck their spent cigar- ets back into a can, fo be dis- pesed of in a creek or spring. “Break your match befcre you throw it away,” is a sign found hundreds of places in the forests. If you break it the chances are you will make certain it is out. In spite of all such precautions, more than half of all forest fires are man-caused. But if all man- causes were eliminated there would still be forest fires, although not nearly so many. Lightning starts them. Sometimes they seem to start by themselves almest, so hard wre they to explain. You needn't get panicky and avoid the forests. They are safer than the public highways. But wxhen you leave camp, work over your camp fire until you can put sour hand in the ashes. e “Alaskana” by Marie Drake at all book stores, 50 cents. Daily Crossword Puzzle ACROSS 1.

From his pen the fnl- lowing year came “The Lions and| the Lord” and in 1904 he produced “The Seekers,” Writes His Plly Returning ‘to New ¥ork, Wilson met another young writer, Booth Tarkington, - with whom he sailed for Capri, Italy.. There they col- laborated in writing a play, “The Man From Home.” It was shown in 1907 and became a national hit, For six years William T. Hodge starked in the comedy, taking it to every sizable eity in. the country.| The automobile was still a myster- ious contraption to & big selection | of the publi¢'and a line in ‘the play —“You have sand in your gear box” —became a populpr by-word. Wilson remained in Europe for seven years, returning. 'in 1912 and| establishing his home .at Carmel Highlands on Monterey Peninsula in California. 2 Writes Favorite Novel The book generally regarded as| Wilson’s' best, “The Boss of Liftle Arcady,” ' was published in 1905. Jack London, whose realism was the antithesls of Wilson's work, ‘said | . it was his favorite all=~time novel, It helped make its author a mem- ber of the National Institute of Arts and Letters. The year 1905 also saw publication | Then came| of "“Ewirg’s Lady,” a lapse of three years, its finish being celebrated by the appearance of one of Wilson's most popular characters, “Bunker Bean.’' Four vears later he presented “Ruggles of Red Gap” to an appreciative pub- | lic and.in. 1916 followed this with “Somewhere in Red Gap.” “Merton of the Movies” a livilig. personage to many. after publication of the book of that title and “Oh Decctor” later helped to strengthen Wilson’s reputation as a humorist. Two Marriages ! The author was married first in 1902 to Rose Cecil Latham, who as Rose. O'Neill was originator of the Kewpie Doll craze. They were di- vorced. Wilson’s. second marriage was to Helen Cooke in 1912, They. had two children, Harry Jr., and Helen Wil- son. After 15 years of married life { the second Mrs. Wilson also obtained }a divofce,” charging 'desertion ahd i failure to provide. At the court proceedings, Wilson testified, that. his income ranged from nearly $100,000 down to $15,000 annually, Mrs. Wilson was granted £ $80,000 as a half share in their com- |'mon property.
