THE TRIBUNE-NEWS, CARTERSVILLE, GA., JUNE 28. 1923.
by forest fires, it behooves the naUonai
government to maintain vigilance, and
for every state to keep careful watch
on this terrible element, which now,
when heat, dry weather, and electrical
storms cause so many forest fires, is
particularly menacing. It is part of
everyone.s patriotic duty to protect the
state by avoiding carelessness himself,
as well as extinguishing accidental
fires in their incipiency whenever pos
sible, perhaps to dismount from a
horse, get out of a ear to stamp out
the fiames started by a heedlessly
tossed match or cigarette.
An instance of the extreme danger of
unchecked forest fire come to my mind.
One summer a number of years ago,
Mr. Edward M. Saunders, president of
the Northwestern Fuel Company, of
St. Paul, went on a vacation trip
among the beautiful takes of northern
Minnesota, taking his family, consist
ing of his wife and several children,
and servants, in his private car. He
also insisted on taking his 10-year-old
nephew, the son of his dead brother,
whose mother lived across the street
/rom my grandparents, and was a par
ticular friends of our whole family.
The party was having a delightful
time, fishing and living the simple life,
far from business and social cares,
newspapers and knowledge of the out
side world, till a cloud of smoke be
came visible above the giant forest
trees, grew denser, more acrid, and
flames threatening on every side.
Knowing the region, the heavy tim
ber for miles and miles, Mr. Saunders
realized the great danger, but was pow
erless, till a rushing train approached,
and was halted long enough to couple
onto his private car, then flew over the
track, hoping to beat the fire to a
clearing sufficiently large to afford
safety. On and on they sped, ever pur
sued by the lelentless flames that
greedily licked up everything they
reached. Engineer and fireman were
almost too blinded by smoke to see the
smokestack, their hair and eyebrows
were singed off, their faces and hands
blistered, while within the train terror
and suffocation reigned.
But the intense heat so warped the
rails that the train could go no farther
and came to a halt by a tiny lake, into
which the people plunged for safety.
There they stayed for hours upon hours
—perhaps more than a day—till the
fire consumed the surrounding forest
and cooled sufficiently to allow them
to lift theri faces out of the water
more than just enough to catch a
breath and prevent drowning.
Meanwhile, special editions of the
city pa]>ers told of the devastating fires
that were raging, consuming town after
town, farm after farm, with loss of
property exceeding all previous years.
They told of Mr. Saunders and his
party in the danger zone, the almost
certainty of their destruction.
The anxiety was almost unbearable
for poor Mrs. Saunders, who, well-nigh
distracted about her only son, her little
boy, spent hours with grandmother,
who was always a well-spring of com
fort to the neighbors in their hours of
trouble.
At last rescuers, venturing into the
burnt district, came across the Saun
ders party in their perilous situation;
runners were sent to the nearest tele
graph station not out of commission,
and the message flashed to the anxious
mother and to the press, for Mr. Saun
ders was a man of great wealth, and
prominent in big business throughout
the northwest.
Minnesota, Wisconsin and other
states are frequently visited by these
forest fires, that destroy millions of
dollars worth of our fast-vanishing ]
timber supply, as well as many lives, j
More careful watch should be kept, l
laws with teeth in them should be rig- i
orously enforced to protect this source
of national and state wealth.
While Georgia has no forests of such
extent as those of the north and west,
those already standing should be cared
for, cut wisely instead of indiscrimi
nately, and replaced, in order that suc
ceeding generations may possess their
just rights, the trees, and with them
the controlled streams.

Bartow Leake
Sends Check For
Jones Memorial
Appreciating the efforts being made
by friends of his native county to raise
funds with which to erect a memorial
drinking fountain to -the memory of the
late Sam P. Jones, Bartow Leake, from
his home in Orlando, Fla., sends a
check for $lO, accompanied by the fol
lowing letter:
Orlando, Fla., June 21, 1923.
Mr. M. L. Fleetwood,
Cartersville, Ga.:
My Dear Sir:
A friend of mine and a subscriber to
your good paper handed me a copy
dated May 23, which paper elecits the
information that my fellow r townsmen
and townsladies propose to erect a
memorial fount to the memory of Kev.
Sam P. Jones, that incomparable friend
and matchless gentleman-—the great
est preacher that to my mind ever
graced a pulpit, excepting perhaps
Bishop George F. Pierce, now deceased.
It was with a feeling of peculiar pleas
ure that my attention was directed to
the article in The Tribune-News con
cerning this memorial drinking fount,
which to me seems the appropriate
thing to do.
I love Cartersville, her people, and
her institutions just as much as I ever
loved them, and pray God's blessings
the movement you have in hand.
I gladly contribute my mite towards
ti.e furtherance of the cause. I regret
the check is not for a greater amount,
though perhaps I may be able to help
the cause with an additional check
later.
High regards and best wishes to you.
Yours sincerely,
BARTOW LEAKE.
