A MESSAGE TO BOYS AND GIRLS. School Children Urged to Help Protect Forests and Protect Birds. I would like to visit the schools and see every boy and eirl in the State. Since I cannot do this, I am sending each of you a message I trust you will remember. I want all the school children to help Governpr Craig and all good citizens to preserve our for. ests and protect our birds. How help ful our teachers could be if they would plan to observe "Arbor Dav" and organize Audubon Clubs in every school. If every boy and girl' would plant a tree and protect a bird, lum ber would be cheaper and homes less expensive and our little feathred fam ily will again form th rainbow colors in our forests. It is claimed by those who are in vij knowttha fire, is -the- "worst-enjemy to euf1 mrtlrHJarolina forests, and -that the largest part of these firw are caused by careless ness. Our children must not only be taught the value and beauty of forests, but also must be trained t be more careful about the use of matches and fires. A most helpful and impressive illustrated leaflet, enforc ing just these points, in language which the children can understand is being distribued by the Carolina For estry Association free of charge to all schools, in sufficient quantities for every child to have one. A simple ap plication to the secretary of the Asso ciated at Chapel Hill, N. C.,-will se cure these. . . MRS. LAURA J. INGRAM. Chairman of Conservation of Woman's Clubs. Wadesboro, N. C.
