HOTTED over 100,000,000 acres of forest, 1,000 men, organized in the employ of the Government of Ontario, are, thiS'.summer,`passing back and forth over the canoe routes and along the railways, watching •out for the tell-tale smoke which is the sign of fire. Regardless of hot weather, black flies, mosquitoes, discomfort, loneliness or monotony, the Fire Ranger makes his rounds, preventing, quenching or fighting fires in Ontario's forests, paying his .own living and traveling expenses, and receiving $3.00 per day for his serviebs. All in all, the Ontario Fire Ranger is entitled to the help and co-operation of everyone. He deserves all the support the people of Ontario can give him. His work is of vital importance. Heed his warnings. Do what he asks. They're yours The Ontario Fire Ranger, during the • danger period of the dry summer, is constantly on patrol to catch fires while they are small. He cannot prevent them ,,.starting, as a ruler He is at the mercy of all types of care- lessness. Thanks to his vigilance, however, two-thirds of the forest fires in the last four years did not spread beyond five acres and of these, half did not exceed one-quarter acre. Most of Ontario's Fire Rangers are northern woodsmen. Contrary to common belief, only five per cent. of then- are students, and these are experienced Fire Rangers or returned soldiers. Rangers travel chiefly by canoe and in 'pairs over a definite.. "beat", the length of which varies according to the degree of danger from fires. Others travel up anddown the forestedrailway sections on hand velocipedes, following trains to put -out fires' set by Stearn locomotives. In all, 2,100 miles of railroad are patrolled steadily all summer. , Two men devote their whole time to examining locomotives to see that screens and ashpans will not permit the escape of sparks and live coals. In the clay belt, a large force of Rangers supervise settlers' fires in land -clearing operations. Don't blame the Fire Ranger if he asks you to be careful. Don't think he is too particular. He knows the risk. Ontario is poo'er by untold millions of dollars through forest fires in the past.
