Did you know there is a real
~mokey the Bear? I usually ask
campers this question during my
visit to each of our Mason County
youth camps. I explain that Smo-
key now lives in a zoo in Wash:
ington D.C. and I always leave
Smokey comic books, telling his
true story.
Many, many youngsters have
sung his song and yet neither the
tune nor the words seem to grow
old. It would be difficult to esti-
mate the extent to which his im-
age reminds everyone about "Keep
Green" and using caution in our
forests. The idea of a Smokey,
the fire prevention bear, has en-
joyed the greatest amount of suc-
cess of any "gimmick" of this
type.
The idea of having a Smokey
tahe Bear was first born in the
mind of an artist in 1945. How-
ever, the real Smokey did not
come into the picture until 1950
when a small bear cub survived
a 17,000 acre forest fire in Lin-
coln National Forest in New Mex-
ico. The fire had destroyed the
small cub's home, family, and
friends. He was found clinging to
a tree by fire fighters who res-
cued him and treated his wounds
and burns. The forest fire received
much publicity, but not nearly as
much as the baby bruin who had
escaped the disaster.
SMOKEY HAS not only cap-
tured the hearts of all Americans,
but his message has been carried
to Mexico, Australia, Venezuela,
and Canada. In 1952 Congress
passed the Smokey Bear Act
which protects Smokey from mis-
use and authorizes the manufac-
ture and sale of commercial Smo-
key items provided they are in
good taste and carry a fire pre-
vention theme.
Smokey is now a grown bear,
but he is still the greatest single

contributor in the fight against
fire.
Smokey's message is directed
mainly toward the young folk, but
adults can also help Smokey by
being cautious in every type of
weather, by being an example for
their children--putting out camp-
fires properly, taking care of cig-
arettes and matches to be sure
they're out. Won't you please
help ?
Follow Smokey's ABC's.
Always hold matches 'til cold.
Be sure to drown all fires.
Crush all smokes dead out.

I have a mire cure for you folks
who are having problems with
yellow jackets nesting around your
homes. This method is definitely
not for the faint hearted. First,
you take a can of insecticide in
one hand; a large hammer in ti~e
other and head for the prey. When
you find the place where they are
entering and leaving, you bang
it as hard a,.~ you can several
times with the hammer and start
spraying immediately. This will
:get rid of every single one if you
really stick to it. We HAD such
a nest under one eave of the
house, and this was the metttod
employed by Pete Kruger last
week as he was working on the
roof. He was never stung and we
no lonqer are pestered by yellow-
ackets.
A reminder to all you parents
)f school age children; school will
;start Sept. 8 for a full day. The
same bus routes as last year will
