Sherman both spoke to the assem

Tperation and that of his em
ployees.
NO TIME WASTED
One of the outstanding things
impressed on the guards was the
i:,rd and fast rule of being away
're;r: their station within five
•,unities after an alarm came in;
hat there could be no excuse for
guard delaying longer than this
jeriod from being on his way to

the scene of the alarm with all >
equipment. “You men are picked
men,” stated Sherman, “and when i
you leave here you are entirely on
your own and must rely entirely
upon your own initiative. You!
must have that inborn pride to
know without a shadow of a doubt
that when a fire has been extin- 1
quished that it is black-oua, and
rotil you have this assurance,
you must remain there; and above
/■ 11 things, know for a fact you.
have dug out all smoldering
roots. No snap judgements can get
by on this job for upon you alone
rest the responsibility of protect
ing these millions of dollars of
magnificent timber.”
Ranger Sherman, during his
lecture touched on many other
subjects, aside from those men
tioned above, which included the
necessity of remaining with a fire
day and night; when a guard
should rest; splitting crews, the j
initial action of organization to
combat a blaze; the reason for
, a kindling fire; why every person;
is a potential fire risk; the ne
cessity of becoming acquainted
vi h every individual in the
guard’s district, relative humidity |
of their regions, why fires are re-j
ported by the minute, and then I
i Sherman called upon former.
I guards to describe to the new ones
previous battles with fires. These
! descriptions were extremely inter
| esting and drew many comments.
A bad fire at Moose Pass was des
cribed in detail as was one at
Bird Point and an old burn fire
Inear Gull Rock when a strong
wind carried the fire one-rhalf a
mile and where 50 men were em
ployed.
NOT POLICEMEN
i “You are not policemen,” Mr.
Sherman continued, “but servants
;of the public. Always bear that in;
mind; get along with the people!
and solicit their cooperation.”
Sherman then read extracts
from the Federal and Territory
statutes protecting the public do
mein and reserves and penalties
K>r infringements thereto, which
are quite severe. At this point Mr.
McDonlad impressed upon the
crew that they can accomplish j
far more by talking to an effen- ;
der and pointing out errors, than
by taking drastic measures imme
diately. That most fires are
caused from pure carelessness on
the part of campers and smokers I
who do not extinquish their fires
nor are careful where they throw
their “butts” or ashes from a pipe. |
Mr. Ramsey then described an
underground fire which burned
all winter, in the Interior; other;
fires of this nature were also re- !
ferred to.
Small, but compact high-speed j
pumps, weighing 80 pounds, were i
then taken down to a nearby I
creek where a 100 feet of hose
was strung out and a stream of !
water, with a 90-pound nozzle j
pressure, was flung high over j
and into the distant trees and;
shrubbery. ;
A visit to the Lawing station |'
will prove a pleasant surprise to j
the public and the rangers will
always be very happy to show
