Of course Madly and young Jeff got married. As the ext.enj sion workers unwound the foui reels of rnotion"pictures with the help of the little portable motoi and projector Forester Barreto brought, the people learned that fires destroy the game of woods, the organic matter and fertility ol the soil, tue little treee that grow iuto wood to be used by by man from the time lie enters "the cradle until lie is sleeps for the last time in his cofin. That forest fires kill trees on thousands of acres and in¬ directly cause floods at one time of the year,and dry streams and wells at other seasons because nature’s reservoirs and ruined.
