BILL SCOTT WILL RETIRE ON FRIDAY ,;- DEC. (Continued) Bill as might be expected has served his comunity well. He was Reeve of Schreiber for three years.

Mr, and Mrs. Scott have their daughters, Mrs. Doug Reynolds living in Schreiber, Mrs, Skinner and Mrs, Thomp- son living in Terrace Bay; sons George Scott is a Locomotive Engineer with the C.P.R. at Schreiber, son Jim is Office Manager with Pauline Chambers in Winnipeg. Bill Scott and his wife Ada will continue to live in Schreiber, Bill may be seen at any hockey game the Schreiber Lions are playing, particulary he can be seen in the goal judge post in the Schreiber Arena, and on occasion some added life is injected into the game when Bill and a certain re- feree start a discussion??? So on Friday, December 9th, 'Bill will have completed another chapter of a color- ful and varied life, He will be missed by us all here at Terrace Bay, most particularly perhaps, by his fellow employees who re- ceived a word of encouragement or a reason to smile, when they visited the tool crib. When we asked Bill for some appropriate remarks on his retirement he typically replied that he wished Freddy MacMillan, his successor, the same fine cooperation that he had received. Good luck and Best wishes are extended to Bill Scott from all of us here at Terrace Baye 0-0-0 CHRISTMAS IS THE TIME TO BE EXTRA CAREFUL Every year, from a few days before Christmas to the week following New Year's a plague of fires rages up and down the country. Many of these fires result from the extra hazards which exist only during the holiday season and from carelessness that would not be tolerated at any other time. Little careless acts -- that seem so unimportant at the time -- cause these holiday fire tragedies, A Missourian lights a match with his thumbnail; the burning head flies into a Christmas tree and a mother and three children die in a fire that destroys their home....A neglect- ed toy electric train ignites a Christmas tree in a New Jersey hotel and four people (Cont. on next col,) Page 5 CHRISTMAS IS THE TIME TO BE EXTRA CAREFUL are burned to death...,.in Hartford, Con- necticut, the simple replacement of a frayed cord would have saved 47 patients in a convalescent home -from injury and death, all victims ofthe faulty wire that short-circuited and touched off the combustible decorations: around their Christmas tree. o-020 MEN'S TEN PIN LEAGUE ~~ - Standings December 8, 19556 Points Team Prev, Last Night Total GP Warehouse ~ Lyd 50. 27 Royals ie edhe 4 Ri Engineers 32 6 oo.
