These forest fire prevention rules is- sued by the association are being sent by the hundreds along with Presi- | t Harding’s proclamation: | lighted matches or! Never drop king materials in the woods or s or along the roads without put- out the match absolutely or ‘smoke’ into the min- soil. “Never build an open fire for any e near the woods or fields when Drench it with water or cover it com- pletely with mineral soil. “Never pass even the smallest fire unnoticed. Put it out yourselt or see a fire warden, the owner or some re- sponsible resident starts for it before you leave. “Fire travels with the wind always. Stop its front and put out the sides and rear later. Sand or soil will smother it, beating will kill it, but water is always best. Flirt water or soil along the line, do not dump it in one place. Beat towardy the fire to avoid spreading it. “Always work slowly and deliber- ately in fighting fire so that every motion counts and your energy is not wasted.” The forest fire loss for the last five years reaches a_staggering total of $85,000,000, the American Forestry As- sociation adds, and measures to help stop fires are incorporated in the Snell forest policy bill now before Con- gress. To get to_the demonstration enter Rock Creck Park by the Park road en- trance and proceed to the open space along the creek just before Pierce Mill is reached. D. A. R. CHAPTER ELECTS.
