Forest Fire Fighters
Hold Maydelle Meeting
Over thirty-five forest patrolmen,
lookoutmen, smokechasers, their as-
sistants and fire guards of the Texas
Forest Service, A. & M. College, met
September 14th at Maydelle State
Forest with their supervisory and
technical personnel for a one-day
fh-e control training course, accord-
ing to J. O. Burnside, chief of the di-
vision of forest protection. The per-
sonnel assembled from Anderson,
Cherokee, Houston, Nacogdoches,
Rusk and Shelby counties.
The meeting held here was one of'
seven similar meetings scheduled
throughout the Texas timberbelt
within the forest protection area. Mr.
Burnside said that these training
meetings were being;, held in order to
train new personnel in the forest fire
fighting oganization. Many personnel
changes have been made due to war
time conditions.
"Protecting the timberlands from
fire assumes an extremely important
place in prosecuting the war effort
because of the enormous demand for
wood products, pulpwood and lumber
for our armed forces," Biirnside stat-
ed.
Various phases of the training giv-
en iby trained technicians included!
telephone line maintenance, use anil
care of fire control tools, effective
fire fighting methods and control

damage appraisal procedure, fire
prevention measures, woods pacing,
and fire fighting equipment repair.

tures and actual demonstrations were
used in the training.

Washington wept in his heart for his freezing troops—
And saw blood on the ice where shoeless feet had trod.
"A strong nation is not born of indulgence,and ease."
Oh, heroes of America, who are abroad in the earth today,
Enmeshed in the hot and unreasoning machinery of war—
We would not have you know how we cling to our dollars—
Our cowardly, slacker dollars, while you die for us.
Franklin, Jefferson, Hamilton, Hancock, Henry—
"If a people hate war too much to risk all for freedom
At the drop of a hat—freedom will be taken from them."
Forefathers of America, who carried the fearful weight
Of a rebellion and a whole nation on your shoulders—
Who dared to face complete destruction—turn from the
* Of our swollen bank accounts, and our little ideas
Of how few bonds pay the price if our rich inheritance.
Liricoln .., with the great rugged soul of you suffering—
Risking the life of the Union to save it,
Help us to be a credit to ourselves—and to our children,

Ws E&SY to Buy BOM PS Whose War IS This?
It's as easy to buy bonds as to bay shitts or socks. Go into
*pv store or place that's an^ssuing agent. Hay your money—
-Witi; while the bond is typed out with yout own name and
tddress—and take the bond away with you. You pay 118.75
for a bond you cash in for $25 in 10 years—537.50 for a $50
bond. $75 for a $100 bond, $750 for t $1000 bond. If you
need your money before the bond matures you can get yout
n.ui. , - wiih earned interest, l.tnd now for jtur future.
This isn't the soldiers' and sailors' war. It's yours and
mine. It's America—and all we stand for—that the Avis
is fighting. That's you and me. We don't have to go to
the front to fight—we can send our money. If we don't
do that, we're coasting while others carry the fight at the
front mi at home. Everyone is either "motive power"
or a drag on the wat. Do all your share. In honor«... a
fighter you know—or know about—buy * bond toa'ay/

American heroes! Boys and men from farms and towns,
From stark cities, from plains and woods and mountains,
) Who are laying your lives at our feet for our freedom-
Wait now . . .for the impact of this successful hunt
\ Which beats out from corners and vaults, m
From dark and secret places, our dollars—too decent
To remain in hiding when lending them is our duty, •'
Our PRIVILEGE—and your due.
"jHf If yoo POSSIBLY can...you must buy a bond
TODAT...else shame the collective heart of America,,
For today, all over the country, we all buy a bond
in honor of a man or woman at war. Get tough
with your money. Whip it out and make it buy
bullets and bombs. Only slackers nurse slacke. dollars.
Send MORE of your dollars to war, to fight.
Do it today, for this is AMERICAN HEROES day.
