WF SUBSCRIPTION RATES °S. tf One year (In Advance) ...-.-------------------+-$3.00 Fh Coie Month ee rs ee es ec ices 80 cents —, GUARD AGAINST FIRE Ce More than ever’this year, Californians should be on guard against fire, whether in the home, place of business or the outdoors. Firefighting takes men, money \and equipment, and the things which the nation needs most now in its fight against the Axis are thoce three things—-men. money and equipment. : Manpower, both in the armed services and at home, has become one of our most valuable assets, and it behooves everyone to conserve that asset as much as possible. We are snending billions of dollars td, prosecute the war and every dollar that can be diverted to thé war effort will help bring victory and peace. Our factories are all beinc devoted to production of war equipment vitally reeded on the battlefronts, and the people at home should see that present equipment, such as that used in firefichting. be made to last as long as possible. Add to these factors the pressing need for building materials in military construction and there is additional reason for protecting and using existing structures and for protecting our tmber supply in the forests. Neither the existing structures nor the forests protected by carelessness. Let everyone tale the utmost care about fire and see that children are not a!lowed to handle inflammables. Such action is just as vital to the war effort as that of the man who is engaged in actual combat. 10-DAY SHIP . Henry T. Kaiser. the Parl Burven of the shipbuilding industry. has created more bad news for the Axis. One of Kaiser’s shipv=rde kas launched a 10,500-ton vessel 87 rer cert comnlete 10 davs after the keel was laid. Not only that Kaiser vromises that the ship will be complete and ready for sea by.Sunday, two weeks from keel-laying time. And. the douchty shinbuilder continues, he intends to build ships in less than 10 days. This is the type of action which will seal the doom of Hitler, Hirohito and their satellites. os With American ships comin off) the ways like bullets from a machine gun, the enemy's U-bdats will be at a distinct disadvantage. For every ship they sink or damage, two more will anvear to take its vlace. as Hitler has stepped up production by making slaves out of everv citizen of his own land and of those lands’ he has ravaged. Americans have accepted the challenge. A free people, they are not only meeting Hitler's records but are outstripping them. The war of production is iust as vital as the war of bullets, of tanks, of men. Men like Kaiser are seeing to it that we don't lose the war of production. JUST WONDERIN’ I] wonder when fair spring returns, > With eager heart and smiling face, To robe in olden loveliness, ha Fach dear and well remembered place, f she will mourn each ruined shrine, Each marred retreat, each flame swept hill, t And strive with patient artistry, Her tasks of mercy to fulfill. I wonder if autumn walks disconsolately today across the ‘flame swept hills of home, grieving for all the wealth of life -and beauty. so wantonly and needlessly destroyed. Does she can be it ee id » a4 { —_ miss the little lost towns with their simple, unpretentious homes and does she mourn for cherished landmarks which can never be replaced? Do her light fingers fall with pitying tenderness upon shriveled vines, charred shrubs and blasted trees which she can never, never again adorn with ‘rich autumnal hues. of gold and bronze and crimson? Winter rains will bring refreshment to the scorched and bleckened earth. Deep underground. seeds ‘and rootlets will hear the call of life and make their glad response. Spring will come with healing in her wings. Soft green grass will carpet the denuded hillsides, blue lupines will bloom in rare profusion in many a spot made desolate by the red demon as he passed. Demeter the earth mother will begin her gracious tasks of restoration, beauty will live again triumphant over the powers of devastation; but the forests have suffered sorely and trees are not quickly replaced. At this time, they stand with, gaunt, accusing arms uplifted as though in protest against the fate ‘which overtook them and forever robbed them of life, beauty and symmetry. while autumn passes by with sorrowful eyes and troubled heart. Is all this a bit too fanciful? Well then, Jats he practical. _ . wonder, in view of the regret felt by citizens of Nevada County for the tragedy of the San Juan Ridge, if steps will be taken to avert like catastronhies. What can be done to rationalize the hunting season? Oregon has solved the problem by closing areas to camvers. fishermen and hunters until after the first drenching rain. Will California follow suit? A friend writes: ““Why should there have been a hunting ceason this vear?’’ Well, hunters are entitled to their annual season of life, liberty and the pursuit of wild life in the great out of doors; and it must be remembered, that considering the number of hunters who enjoy the seasonal outing, the fires traced directly to them are negligible. Other groups, other indviduals are, all too often culpable. Even the sweet young thing, rambling romantically along a woodland trail may, if inclined to thoughtfulness, speed the red demon on his way. Every man, woman and‘child who visits the forests of the state at this time of the year, should be on the alert. Smoking’ is a deadly occupation unless the smoker knows and rigidly observes the rules of conduct prescribed by the laws of his state. Camp fires left burning are sources of ill.
