Protection Plan
Makes Big Gains
The expanded forest fire pro
tection program for Georgia, ad
vocated by Governor Herman
Talmadge during last year’s
campaign and to the 1949 Gen
eral Assembly, is rapidly being
put into full effect, according to
an announcement by G, Phillip
Morgan, of Savannah, Chairman
of the State Forestry Commission.
Chairman Morgan stated that
an additional 3.263.210 acres of
Georgia timberlands have been
placed under the state's forest
fire protection program since
January 1, and that 23 additional
counties have signed up with
the State Forestry Commission
for protection under- the state
wide plan.
Also, he added, 16 more coun
ties are now negotiating to join
the program, which would mean
the addition of still more millions
of acres under protection.
In explaining the commission's
plan of forest protection, the
Chairman said that counties are
now required to furnish only one
third oi the cost of operation, and
it is hoped that plans now de
veloping will reduce the county
support to only 10 percent.
The expanded forestry pro
gram has had the close and ac
tive aid of Governor Talmadge
The Legislature, at the Gover
nor's request .appropriated $750,-
000 for this important work. This
amount, matched by Federal and
county funds, makes the expand -1
ed program possible. It is the goal
of the Governor and the Com
mission to have every county in,
the state participating in the pro
gram by next year.
Members of the State Forestry
Commission, besides Chairman
Morgan, are: K. S. Varn, of Way
cross; H. O. Cummings, of Donal
sonville; J. M. McElreath, of Ma
con; and C. M. Jordan, Jr., of
Alamo.

Parent Problems

YESTERDAY we dilated with
enthusiasm over the companion
ship we parents might cultivate
through enjoyment with our chil
dren, of the growing plants and
trees and flowers and birds and
lowly creatures all about us. We
observed the values to parents
and children, gained from taking
hikes together by the streams
and through the fields and woods.
We also cautioned parents while
strolling with their children to
keep in mind the value of teach
ing these children to respect the
ownership of the property over
which they hike. Whether we

over public property such as a
park or over fields and forests be
longing to individual persons,
this moral obligation to our chil
dren is very important. When
one or both parents are strolling
with one or more children, the
setting is about ideal for good
moral teaching by example and
by percept, in respect to the
rights and possessions of others.
Respect Rights
Easily then the child can be led
to see that if the property over
which he is hiking belongs to the
public, he should respect the
rights of all the other people of
the public to whom this property
(Largest Coverage Any Weekly In The State)
belongs. Early, too, he can be led
to see how he would feel toward
anybody walking . ver his fields
or woods, who would harm or
destroy anything thereon. But let
us parents always remember that
when our children harm, destroy
or carry away other people’s pos
sessions we not only do wrong
to the owner of the property, but
what is worst, we do harm to our
selves and our children inside—
we do moral harm. On the other
hand, when we always show in
the presence of our children due
regard for the rights and posses
sion of other people, and rein
force our good example by well
chosen words, we build good
moral stuff in ourselves and our
children. Let us remember, too,
that while material things may
easily be restored or bought with
money, good moral fiber isn’t got
ten this way. It has to grow for
weeks and months and years,

Os Home Grounds
In 4H Program
One of the most, popular 4-H
programs in Georgia this year is
the national 4-H home grounds
though in a moment it can be'
destroyed.
Think of all the families of our
nation within easy walking dis
tance from wide open spaces; of;
all other families who with the
aid of common transportation or
the family car might have access
tc such places.
Worst Offenders
But if you owned fields, woods,
streams, lakes and the like on the
outskirts of a village, town or
city’, you might feel exasperated,
at the amount of harm and de
struction to your property by
strollers over it—leaving gates
open, breaking down fences,
tramping down crops or marring
trees, shrubs or other growing
things. Adults are among the
worst offenders and some of these
adults are parents having their
own children with them.
Begin as soon as your tot can
toddle, to educate him in proper
care of his own things and prop
erty about the home and neigh
borhood. This I discuss in detail
in a stamped enelope sent me in
care of this paper.)
When you go strolling over
fields and woods with your child
let him see and hear you ask
permission of the owner. Let him
practice with you at closing gates
and avoiding to tramp on crops
and the like. Practice with him
the highest respect for the rights
and possessions of other people.
