FAGE 18 TERRACE BAY NEWS JULY 4, 1974 INFORMATION ONTARIO - By Bev Young A total of I,6I8 junior forest rangers, 188 of them girls, is being employed this summer by the Ministry of Natural Resources. Duties, which include a number of resource jobs throughout the province, begin July 3rd and end August 27th. ATTENTION FISHERMEN ... Each spring Ministry of Natural Resources staff have to extinguish many fires caused by fishermen. At this time of year the flash fuels on the ground are highly flammable ... Please be extra careful with your smoking material and if you must light a lunch fire select a safe spot and put it dead out before you leave. BY DOING SO YOU WILL HELP TO KEEP ONTARIO GREEN. BUYING A CAR ... People buy cars for many reasons, but one thing they have in common is that no one wants a car purchase to turn into a source of disappointment and unexpected ex- pense. And so, the Motor Vehicle Dealer Section of the Ontario Ministry of Consumer and Comm- ercial Relations, which registers motor veh- icle dealers and salesmen in the Province has released a pamphlet to aid prospective car buyers. ; If you follow the suggestions outlined in the publication you will probably be able to narrow your car-buying worries down to the time period when they are most productive - before you buy. For more information on this subject and many others dealing with consumer protection contact the Northern Affairs Office Peninsula Building, Marathon or phone 229-II53. Bat Fact The fishing bat of Central America and the Caribees use echo-location "sonar' to find food. When the bat locates small fish at the surface, it skims the water and spears its prey with strong talons. Fast Talkers Don't talk too fast--you might say something you haven't thought of yet.

Fond of music, he likes to sing at school functions. He joins whole-heartedly in youth activities at church.
