HE'LL NEED. FORESTS TOO!
stir
THE HYDRO - ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION OF ONTARIO
If you look to the bush country for recreation or business, you'll
realize how much it will mean to the youngsters of today if you help
to save the forests for tomorrow. Above all, protect the forests from fire.
Ontario has been abundantly blessed with natural resources,
which, if not properly protected, can be quickly exhausted. Every
year, for example, thousands of acres of trees are destroyed because
Someone is net careful with fire,
Forests mean much more than a pleasant place to holiday :
an attraction for tourists . . shelter for game animals and fishing
haunts. They mean more than a source of lumber and paper products;
andlobs for thousands of people, vital as these are to national welfare;
Climate is tempered-extremes prevented-by forest areas. They
store Water too-help to kee rivers pnd streams from dangerous and
costly flooding in spring time. They spread the flow Of water more
evenly through the year. That meant they help to ensure a year-round
supply of Hydro power for you.
Protect the forests, They serve you well.
SOME WAYS TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT FIRE
• Break each Match in two before you throw it away.
• Be sure your discarded cigarette is really out.
e Keep tamp grit small, and always Ina safe place; a Before you leave, put the fire DEAD our with twofer.`
