Any use you can make of these will be greatly appreciated. Accompanying the letter is a list of American Forest Week sloeans that are suggested for use in advertisements for the week. They are as follows: Prevent forest fires it pays. Keep the forest green prevent forest fires. Kill your camp fire then bury it. Protect the homes of our wild life. The solution of the timber problem is not to use less timber but to grow more. Every industrial nation in the world la importing timber. Cut-ovland is more dangerous than green timber. The future of the lumber industry hinges on protection of young growth from fire. Idle timberland reflects on the foresight of the state. Forest protection means less silt in reservoirs and ditches. Fires destroy wild life. Harvest the mature trees before they rot, but protect the young trees left. Keep our forests producing. Keep our watersheds timbered. Timbered mountain slopes mean clear streams. Clear streams mean good trout water. Green forests mean good hunting. Green trees mean shady camp grounds. We need a sfnokeless summer. Lets have it in 1927. Ashes build no homes. A campfire is your servant. Dont let it become your master. A country without forests is like a child without clothes. No forests, no schools no woods, no homes save the trees. A clean camp is a safe camp keep your camp clean. This massive tree. A tiny seed, a hundred years; nature to produce it. A fool and his flame, within a day, to ashes may reduce it. Give your campfire a bath. Time waits for no man. Neither does a forest fire. No forests no wealth. No trees no health. Be sure your camp fire is dead then bury it Forest fires, easy to start, hard to , stop. A personal pledge of service, per-veforest fires. You rob children of education if you are careless with fire. School funds come largely from timber. BT jut- Tt week. In order to help emphasize the si !; the forests.
