During the past week, a Maintenance Department employee working in the Woodyard narrowly escaped serious injury during a pulpwood slide on one, of the block-piles. By quick thinking on his part, he was able to get behind a cement fire monitor tower Just as the sliding pulpwood reached the area where he had been. One of the recommendations which resulted from the accident investigation was that all employees working in the woodyard area should exercise caution when near block piles, particularly where there are overhangs. The heat of the sun and warm winds can easily start a slide during this mild weather. BE CAREFUL - THE LIFE YOU SAVE LUY BE YOUR OWN. O~O0=0 LADIES' AUXILIARY The Terrace Bay Community Church Ladies!
