In-a letter to The Nugget, Kenneth I. Fulton, director of natural resources, states: E The war confronts California with the toughest over-all fire problem to be found in the United States. It intensifies the already dangeous. fire hazards within our forests and watersheds, not only because of acts of sabotage and incendiarism by enemies but also through the acute and growing shortage of manpower and the difficulties of obtaining muchneeded additional equipment. . The California. State Council of Defense, Division of Forestry and the State Board of Forestry and cooperating agencies are trying to meet this shortage in, various ways: ; 1—By building up an auxiliary force, for use in emergencies, of high 'school and college students who will ibe trained in fire fighting techniques. . 2 By onganizing farm workers as . volunteer firemen. . 8—4By using prison labor. . 4—-By recruitment from /other sources. The California Division of Forestry asks you to help acauaint the-public with the need not only for being extra careful with cigarettes, camp fires, and automobiles, but also with the necessity of reporting fires to the State rangers or other constituted authority. ‘The Division of Forestry must rely wpon the press as the chief means of educating and urging the any people to help in preserving their own natural resources.

You can buy War Bonds at your Bank, Building & Loan Association, Post Office and -'S.F CIVIL ARMY TO AID HARVESTS Against the growing cry for food and more food to serve American civilians and fighting men alike, seven San Francisco agencies today will begin the task of registering San Franciscans for wartime harvest work. Participating in the united wartime harvest effort are the Agricultural Committee of the San Francisco Chamber of .Commerce, the San Francisco Junior Chamber of Commerce, the municipal Aegional Service Committee, the YMCA, and the San Francisco Co-Ordinating Council. ; Actual registration will be handled at two convenient locations — the (Civilian Defense Council at 532 Market Street, and the United States ‘Employment Service, 1690 Mission Street. A corps of expert clerks has ‘been organized at each point to speed registration. Sponsors of the San _ Francisco Wartime Harvest Program have warned that the work will be hard. Balanced against that, however, is the fact that such activity will be a manifestation of patriotism by. all ‘who volunteer T.here is an added attraction in that the work will be healthful as ‘well as profitable, since voluntteers will be enabled to. take part in a ‘“back to the earth’’ movement at prevailing wages. While adults —individuals and families—will register with the CDC of the USES, sturdy San Francisco school youths 16 years old or over have already volunteered to aid in the. vital work. The San Francisco public schools have launched a registration campaign and new names are daily being added to the list cf those who feel that food will play a vital role in winning the war. And requests for nearly 700 students have already been received by school authorities. They will be carried to the fields or orchard where work is to be done, and there cared for under the direction of the YMCA which has volunteered to aid this phase of the program. Expert counselors will watch over the boys, safeguarding morals and health as they aid their country. FAGS BAGS, NEW DEVICE FOR FIRE PREVENTION . Tahoe rorest officials are appealing to all housewives in this area for the donation of empty flour, sugar and muslin sacks to be converted into ‘Fag Bags’’—the ‘‘fag bags’’ are small red sacks fitted with a draw string. One is given to each motorist and recreationist by foresters in which to place their cigarettes, pipes. matches and other smoking paraphernalia when they enter the forests. Thus when a person smokes it becomes necessary for him not only to remove the smoking material from his pocket but from the bright red “fag ibag’’ too, and in this way becomes a check on thoughtless smokers who might otherwise become careless with their matches and cigarette stubs. Mac Edmonds assistant supervisor of the: Tahoe National Forest in charge of fire control stated that the “fag bag’’ idea was first used in Southern California where it has become a very popular fire prevention measure. Edmonds intends to send the donated sacks to the Angeles National. Forest iwhere the Girl Scouts will dye the cloth and make the bags.

MdMath and Mrs. Wild of San Francisco and Mrs. Edith Wood of Napa spent Memorial. Day weekend visiting ‘with Mrs. ‘Ida Guenther and Mrs. Will Jeffrey. Mrs. MeMath and Mrs. Wild are sisters of Mrs. Guenther and Mrs. Jeffrey.

Mr. and Mrs. Davis are always harlpy. to return to Nevada ‘City, which they consider one of the beauty spots of the world. ". Nevada City — as Nugget — Monday, June 1, 1942 dust Wonpersne I wonder at the artful ones Who practice to deceive, And also at the artless ones Too ready to believe. And I applaud the truly wise Who stop and think and analyze. on. . Not long since, the leaders of a cult who Ounfed their gullible followers by the thousands were indicted by Ri ita government convicted of fraud and punished accordingly. : Thé fanstastic theories expounded by the proponents of this particilar cult, were too absurd for credence iby any thinking jperson, but yet they were accepted and supported ‘by many sincere and presumably intelligent people, who paid out their hard or easily earned cash for ‘books, pamphlets, icons, edicts, et.c, etc. Strange, the leaders of the cult lived in costly hotels, traveled extensively and always de luxe and wore large and very bright dia.monds. The humble. neophytes were promised great wealth, happiness and possibly diamonds in the world. beyond—pbut isn’t that the usual way? A modicum of gnalytic thinking should be potent protection from the wiles of avaricious persons who trade upon the credulity of those whoseminds. and money théy seek to captivate. But the more improbable the bait offered, the more readily is it taken. Why? Perhaps because so many purveyors of menal nostrums caution their victims, by telling them, not to think, not to analyze but to let the great flood of mumbo jumbo flow into their receptive souls and take possession once and for all. If the theories of a cult, inseed of any faith either religious or political are unfit for the open minded investigator, it is unworthy of any one’s adherence. If its ¥ leaders are afraid to say, ‘‘come, let us reason together,’” we may regard them as predators, seeking whom they may exploit. The theories they ad‘vance are sure to be to the mind what strong dring is to the body, and of them it may well be said, ‘‘he who is deceived thereby is not wise.” Just recently a student in one of:our eastern colleges was acclaimed by his mates as their most talented under graduate. In accordance with pre laid plans, he trecked to a distant city to make his debut upon a popular radio program. It was, ‘Am An American Day, and the song selected and sung by the talented one was titled, I Don’t Want to Walk Without ES You, Balby! Now, what had that song to do with with I Am An American Weék? Oh well, the singer couldn’t have been thinking of ‘Schickelgruber as he sang, and it maybe that depreciation of music is fast ‘becoming a fine art which may, in time, be added to the list of high school and college extra curricular activities. Uncle Silas says: “If Mussolini was as tall as The Leaning Tower of Pisa, you wouln’t be able to tell ’em apart.’’—A. Merriam Conner. » 5 ‘ DG an — pees ee . = eB ad ~~ T [Se i We A NER is he .
