Serving th INCOME TAX FORMS TO BE MAILED he massive mailing of six-and-one half million income tax forms direct to taxpayers is scheduled to begin on January 8th. This is a new method of distributing tax forms according to an announcement from the Department of National Reve nue. In addition, farmers and fishermen, for whom a special "Farmer's and Fisherman's Guide" is printed, will be receiving these about one week before they get their tax forms. Every taxpayer who filed last year will receive a "personalized" tax form with his own name, address and identification number, together with an extra copy to keep for his own records. Included will be a tax guide, a brochure explaining the new pro- cedure and a return envelope. Taxpayers should begin receiving their forms in Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick beginning January 12; in Newfoundland beginning January 15; in British Columbia, Alberta, the Yukon, Saskatchewan and Manitoba beginning January 18; in Quebec beginning January 15 (Montreal area beginning January 18); and in Ontario b eginning January 19 (Toronto and Hamil- ton areas beginning January 25). In the past, employee taxpayers got their forms from their employers. Self-employed people, in- cluding farmers and fishermen, picked up their forms at post offices. New taxpayers, taxpayers who spoil their "per- sonalized" returns or who do not receive them because they may have moved during the year, may get extra forms at their local post office or district Taxation offices. MR .& MRS PAUL ROCHON HAVE NEW YEAR BABY Mr.and Mrs.Paul Rochon are the proud parents of Terrace Bay's "New Year Baby." The infant girl arrived on Sunday, January 3rd and is the ninth child in the family. The baby will be named Elizabeth Irene. The Rochon Baby was not the first child born in Terrace Bay Private Hospital in 1965. A son was born to Mr.and Mrs. Bergeron of Mobert on Satur- day, January 2nd. However, the Kiwanis Club and donating merchants stipulate that the child entitled to recognition by them should be born to local parents.

"All citizens of the province should join together to help bring the development of this major, inter- national zoological park for Ontario to successful fruition," said Mr.Auld, who has emphasized his own personal interest in the project by accepting an appointment as honorary patron of the Society. "It represents the kind of unique and exciting attraction that is so important to the tourist industry in this province,' he stated. "It will be a great new addition to the tourist and entertainment facil- ities of the province, to say nothing of the park's priceless contribution to wildlife conservation and the study of the life sciences." The Upper Canada Zoological Society, which includes leading citizens from all parts of Ontario, is developing as its Centennial project a park which, when completed, will comprise over 150 acres and feature one of the world's largest collections of wildlife, exhibited in a natutal forested setting. HUNTING FATALITIES NEW LOW RECORD Reports to Dec .5th indicate th at hunting fatal- ities in Ontario may set a new low record in 1964. With the same number of hunting accidents at this date' in both 1963 and 1964, there were 14 fatalities in 1963 and 10 in 1964. This is in sharp contrast to the situation in 1960 when there were 154 such accidents, including 36 fatalities. The trend has been steadily downward since the Hunter Safety Training Program went into full opera tion. Accidents in succeeding years drop to 126 in 1961 and 1962 and I18 for the full year 1963. Fatal accidents dropped from 36 in 1960 to 22 in 1961, I7 § in 1962 and |5 for the full year 1963.
