Page Six. Friday, March 20. This Is Carolina Forest Week; Give a Thought to Forest Fire Prevention Great Work Done by Fire War> den^ and Public Cooperation is Sought TODAY IS ARBOR DAY Just what do the words “Carolina. Forest Week” mean to you? To the men who go to make U5> the persBhnel of the State Forest Service it means a week of special prepardedness, a week of public service when much or all of the time put in by the for est wardens is donated by them for the good of the community in which they reside. It means too, to them the one time above all other throughout the year, when they request the co operation of all, in the protection of the greatest natural resources in the State—our forests. They have done their part to in sure for our citizens of the future some of the recreational and econo mic advantages connected with our forests, with which we of the pres ent generation have been so bounti fully blessed. They have carried their program of education to the children in the schools, they have visited the sawmills and have asked and, in nearly all cases, received the fullest possible cooperation from these users of our forest resources; they have cooperated with the section crews of the railroads and of the State high way forces and have received in turn the full approval and. cooperation of these guardians of the traveling pub lic; they have visited the farmer, the tenant, the landowner ,the teachers in the public schools and have asked their cooperation in preventing the needless destruction of our few re maining stands of merchantable tim ber and of our immense areas where the young growth is taking the places of our forests of the past; they have talked with the hunter, the fisher man, the lover of the outdoors and have let them know that they were the guardians of their interests; thay have literally been tried with ^ire and as a rule |hey have come thi’u with colors flying, and incidentally many times with singed hands and eyebrows, scorched faces and arms and blistered hands; they have con stantly tried to present the useless waste, which always accompanies the burning of our forested areas both by precept and example; when it has been found necessary to tic so, they have secured evidence, prosecuted and convicted many of those w'ho have no conception of the property rights of others; those who have I'utbiessly destroyed by fire, the forest wealth that they could never hope to re place and which they had no inten tion of repaying, even in part, they have been diligent in the perform ance of their duties and they have at all times been fair. Wardens Do Their Part There is no question in the minds of the fair minded public or in those of the public officials who have the best interests of their state and of Jes ’a -Wishin’ Th’ other day I wuz a-walkin’ Through de woods of pine An’ all de time I wus a-wishin’ Dat dem trees wuz mine.

' —ELIZABETH HARPER. their county at heart that the forest wardens have done their part. They are now requesting the help of all in the great work they are doing. The week of March 15th to the 22d will be observed as Carolina Forest Week in the state. Arbor Day will fall on Friday, the 20th, and special exer cises in observance of this day in all the public schools have been advo cated by Governor Gardner, Dr. A. T. Allen, Supt. of F^iblic Instruction, Colonel J. W. Harrelson, Director of the North Carolina Department of Conservation and Development, and State Forester J. S. Holmes. It is hoped that the j^eneral public will co operate to the fullest extent in the plans to discourage the useless de struction of our forests by fire and to aid in obtaining proper observance of our conservation laws. Thousands of dollars are lost to the landowners each year on account of carelessness or cussedness on the part of others or for lack of warning on their part in telling their tenants to take proper- precautions to prevent the spread of fires to forest land, when fields, hedgerows, tobacco beds, and other areas are being burned in connection with farming operations. All land owners should consider it their duty to impress upon their tenants and caretakers the great loss entailed in the destruction of forests by fire and to ask their cooperation in the elimi nation of this great economic loss. Governor Gardner says: “Having a deep interest in the i*ural dweller and his problems, and realizing the vital importance of trees and birds to the North Carolina landowner and THE PILOT, a Paper With Character, Aberdeen, North Carolina farmer, an avera|r<B of one-half of his farm is best adapted to the production of a timber crop; and knowing the value of our wood-using industries to the well-being of our state, and following the precedent set by for mer Chief Executives since the estab lishment by law of Arbor Day I urge all schools, women’s clubs, luncheon plubs and other civic organizations as well as all individual citizens to encourage and take part in such suit able celebrations as tree planting, school exercises and other activi ties which will enforce the lesson of conservation on Arbor Day.” Coiinty Forest Wardens Listed below are the Forest Fire Wardens of Moore county who are asking the cooperation of the pub lic in the prevention and suppression of forest fires within the County and State: Alex Fields, County Forest War den, D.
