LONELY VIGIL
Girl Has Task of Guarding
Forests From Fire.
Parmer Newspajnrr Woman Has Spent
Twe 8umm«rs in Quiet Lookout
on Top of Mountains.
Denver.—Following two tti nesful
seasons, during which pretty Miss
Helen Dowe of tills city, in her ca
pacity of forest lire lookout, has dis
covered more than a score of incipient
blazes, officials of the Natioaal Forest
service are convinced that women are
equally ijiialitled as men In the art
of chasli* down the tiny wisps of
smoke that sometimes lead to serious
conflagrations in the thickly wooded
districts of the Kocky mountains.
Miss Dowe is the only member of her
sex In the West who holds the posi
tion of forest fire lookout.
From June until lute October Mist
Dowe Uvea on the summit ef Devil's
Head peak. 9,300 feet high above sea
level and ft5 miles southwest of Den
ver.
From sunrise to sunset Mlaa Dowe
scana the horisoo, sweeping the thon
grinds of acres of forest land beneath
her powerful glass, constantly alert
for the least sign of nmoke. which
often means birth of the terror of the
timber country—the forest fire.
There are no .Sundays or holidays
for Miss Dowe. Occasionally, after a
heavy downpour of raiu or when
clouds obscure the earth below, she
gets a brief respite. Going to the
flre lookout station early in summer,
she must cook her own meals and per
form all the work necessary to keep
her cabin and lookout station in re
pair. She must chop her own firewood
and carry her own water. Previous
to nKxunilng lier duties as forest flre
lookout. Miss Dowe was a D«niver
newspaper woman.
