OUR NATIVE FORESTS
DANGER OF FIRES
During the summer holidays many thousands of picnickers will be spending hours in native forests. They are requested to take every possible precaution against spreading lire in the beautiful woodlands. Many warnings have been given, year after year, about the need of carefulness in the lighting of (ires for the boiling of billies or for cook ing, or the complete guarding of embers, and the extinction of glowing cigarette butts and pipe dottles, but some persons have continued to be careless. Visitors to the forests are also asked to respect the ferns and other growth. There is a law against desecration of native forests, but it lias been broken by plenty of vandals.
