BUNT Furniture Dealer - FLESHERTON : ; Jt MEN and women of Ontario -it is time that we should all realize the terrible com- pleteness of the fire calamity that devastated Northern Ontario in the early days of October. Fires and calamities we have had before, but never such complete destruction as this. Over 1 ,200 square miles laid desolate, town after town nothing but a bleak expanse of ruins, hundreds of farms swept bare, thousands of your fellow citizens "cleaned oufc" and thrown abruptly back into man's primeval struggle against nature and her grim forces: fire, hunger, ice and the stark northern cold. Give 1,800 families a fighting chance to get on their feet. Temporary relief must go on. We must not fail the North. Winter the relentless foe Coming as this terrible fire did, in the autumn, with the harvests in, with the townspeople already preparing for the rigors of winter the complete destruction wrought is the harder to overcome. Thousands <5f people at first had li-N.-rally no place to lay their head, little to wear and nothing to eat. They hud to be taken care of at first. somehow, and then, desperately p.s the days \\t-nt by, and the cold grew more intense, rough but serviceable standard shacks, 16' x 20', have been replacing tents, old street 'cars, packing boxes und sheet iron a ... regular food supply has been es- tablished, anrl rouch clothing id bring distributed. What can a man do with his house a blackened hole in the ground, his barn a charred heap, his vtork shop a twisted pile of rubbish and a northern blizzard raging over all? Temporary Relief Until Spring In the name of humanity we must see these fellov,' citizens through until Spring opens up the land and general business activities are resumed. Money must be forthcoming from the citizens of Ontario, from municipalities, industries, soci- eties, public bodies, lodges, churches, etc. not for rehabilitation or re-cstnblishmcnt. but for the supply of bare necessities, "temporary leliof" in fact, to the stricken North. The Brighter Side of the Picture Everywhere throughout the fire swept district one hears only a strong, manly note of confidence, of resolution to go forward, to "stick to the country" if body and soul can be held together, to make good once more, to restore the hundreds of burned faims, to rebuild the eight or ten destroyed towns -And it will be done if the htrcani of temporaiy relief from Old Ontario does not dry up! All for One One for All Here is a portion of our Province in ruins, and for the sake of the whole Province as well as for its own sake, this gection must be restored to prosperity and happiness. We need the North, \ve need its vigorous, pioneering spirit so one and all. let's "give a hand into the saddle" a.nd do it NOW. Money is needed. The Relief Com- mittee can buy in large quantities, get big discounts, and often free gifts or merchandise from the many manufacturers who are generously co-operating with the Committee. The exact needs are now known. ! The Northern Ontario Fire Relief Committee has been enlarged and now is thoroughly represen- tative of the Province of Ontario. The Provin- cial Government is co-operating to the fullest extent and is doing everything that a Govern- ment can properly do to assist in temporarily relieving the (ire sufferers. To give immediate relief the Committee must secure actual caah without delay. If each municipality or county would devise some means of raising an amount equal to one half mill on the total aasetsment the relief can be continued. The raising of relief funds could he undertaken by public spirited citizens, clubs, churches or councils and provides n most deserving cause for Christmas giving. Now it is up to every community in Ontario to help a neighbouring district in its -hour of trial.
