Page e TERRACE BAY CURLERS DO WELL IN LAKEHEAD BONSPEIL The Terrace Bay rink entered in the recent Lakehead Bonspeil gave a very good account of itself. Skipped by Rune Ostling (President of the Terrace Bay Curling Club) other members of the rink were "Angie" Marcel, Bert Dyck and Ernie Schritt. By gaining victories over rinks from Superior, Wisconsin, Red Rock, and Kenora, Terrace Bay reached the semi-finals of the main events, where they suffered defeat at the hands of a rink from Hibbing and also lost to Frank Sargent's Lakehead rink - ultimate Bonspeil winners, The five victories chalked up out of seven games played against such stiff opposition is indeed a credit to Rune Ostling and his Terrace Bay rink, As it was, the boys came home proud possessors of all wool sport shirts, won in the Kam Lumber event, OOo PUT OUT CIGARETTES . by Fire Chief George Maitland The other day a group of men were standing at the Snack Bar. Some were smoking, Very soon, one left the group and his cigarette, about two-thirds smoked was thrown down on the wooden floor, The smoker walked away meee a thought of the dangerous consequences which might have followed, Fortunately, an onlooker who appreciated the potential danger of such actions, put his foot on the burning stub and snuffed out the venemous little ball of heat, which, if left alone s2uld destroy a whole building or a whole block of buildings. And here and there in Canada, 17,427 such little balls of heat did destroy property worth $16,275,816. in 1947, Most fires from this canse originate in the homes, but frequently they happen an ar ornes, stores, warehouses and other mercantile buildings, where the loss occasioned may be very serious, Fires caused by smokers! carelessness constituted the Ait aint proportion of thirty per cent of all the fires from known causes in 1946, and the amount of loss entailed was more than 11 per cent of the total loss from unknown causes, The remedy for this growing evil is very simols, First of all, making sure that your cigarette, cigar or match is out before disposing of it is a good habit, especially in'a factory, warehouse, bunkhouse or office. Break a match in two before throwing it away, Never make a practice of smoking in bed, The daily press frequently carries accounts of fatal results which so often accompany this habit, Do your smoking before going to bed, Canada's fire losses could be materially reduced by the application of the foregoing simple rules, They are worth a try.
