And so, preventing accidents con- tinues to be the responsibility of each LongLac employee, Committee members are anxious to learn about any hazards and employees who note hazards are urged to report them, Let's keep in mind too that accident hazards appear in many forms apart from the mechanical type, AS a matter of fact the "human hazards" of carelessness, hurry, failure to wear protective equipment and violation of safe practices account for about 85% of all industrial accidents, For the information of all concerned, members of department safety committees are as follows; Wood Handling Safety Committee - Beggie Thorsteinson, Chairman; Ron Faust, Rune Ostling, Joe Marcella and Joe Desaulniers, Pulp Conversion Safety Committee - Thor Olsen, Chairman; Mason Dixon, Fairfield Vanier, Scott Mann, Don Husband, Jack Brooks and Alex Chisholm, Engineering Department Safety Committee -- Monty Paget, Chairman; Ray Wood, Don Brearley, Malcolm Craig, Carmon Woodworth and Tony Fedun.

Les came here in August, 1947, when the Bay Store was then in the building, now known as the Community Hall, across from the Post Office, It was a happy day for Les when the Bay moved to its classy new quarters in the Shopping Centre.
