Judson commented, glancing a- bout. I have never seen the woods so dry, and this is just the time when there are the most campers and_ tourists in the reserve. It would be the worst possible time for a fire tostart, with the strong winds we are having. and we have been warned to be particularly alert. People are amazingly careless or ignorant about al- lowingbrush and forest fires to get started, . and despite all the -Forest Service can do, ' millions of dollars' worth of time and some livesvare lost every year." - ` f When-the slope became too steep for the ponies. the buckboard~was left and the journey completed on foot, the final hun- dred-yard climb taking them out of the forest growth and to the summit of the bare-topped peak. where was perched `the F snug lookout cabin. The man Judson was . to relieve hurried down the mountain. anx- ious to reach the. buckboard and get out of H the woods before total dark_ness. V _ With delight Harry took in the view 5: t from the mountain top. On two sides were I range after range of wooded hills. while on .the other two sides the valley country c [stretched to a line of hills, which showed V hazy blue .in the distance. The green H fields were" divided into what seemed squares f by glimmering and flashing lines which h` Harry knew to be the main irrigation W ditches. The white lines were roads. and t` the specks moving `uponthem were automo- biles or teams. A dark line that cut across bt the valley and disappeared into the moun- tll tains was the railway. For thirty milesin every direction every detail of the country` Pl 'was_clearly revealed by the late afternoon I8. sun. and Harry studied the scene with 81} eager interest.
