Pags 2 RECREATION OFFICE HAS NEV LOCATION 'The smell portion of tho Recreation: Hall on the Bowling Alley side is now the Recreation Office. Some alterations were completed and with a couple of coats of paint it is difficult now to recognize the place. The new space has accommodation for an office, a sports equipment storage and issuing room and a dead storage space for out-of-season equipment, All in all it is worth dropping around to pay a visit where Ossie Dalzell will be err to see you and learn your views and opinions.

SEE YOU ALL THERE, GIRLS AND BOYS 0-0-0 ae DO OUR RESIDENTS SiT I HORST FIRES? WE HOPE NOT! But last year in the Thunder Bay District *" ' 116 fires were put out after 9,016 acres were burned. With the exception of those 28 caused by lightning, all of these could probably have been prevented, Timber operators, in co-operation with the Department of Lands and Forests, set up special rules for their employees. Citizens should also follow these rules: (1) Smoke hand rolled cigarettes only, No tailor mades allowed. (2) Stop and sit down to smoke. (3) Use safety-lighters only. No matches allowed, (4) No lunch fires - use vacuum bottles. If you are going for a walk in the woods, you should have a fairly good idea of the nearest camp or place with e telephone. Last year the general public were first to report 59 of the 116 fires. This is a very important duty.
