Excerpt from A Forest Fire Prevention Handbook for School Children California has wonderful forests that adorn the mountain regions. They are the playgrounds of hundreds of thousands of the people; they are the source of much building material; they contain the springs of great rivers that make the plains fertile. They must be preserved not only for the sake of future generations but also for the present generation. Destructive fires sweep over great sections of the forest each year. Many of these fires are due to carelessness. The teaching of fire prevention in forests is a great public need. I appeal to the teachers to give this matter earnest attention during each school year, especially during American Forest Week, and I know that this appeal will not be in vain.
