One of the major ob- jects of IBC is to pro- mote better public un- derstanding of the in- surance industry. An equally important ob- jective is to provide the public with material which will assist in pro- moting loss prevention and loss reduction. The IBC has produced a series of pamphlets and films, which is avail- able to the public. These are excellent publica- tions covering fire pre- vention, arson, and road safety. Anyone interested in alternate heat sources would enjoy the book- let entitled "Stoves and Heaters". It contains in- formation on the types of stoves, chimneys, ventilation, fuel, ash- es, conversions and cer- tification. Another pam- phlet, which should be of interest to everyone is of style of your home, you should be aware of the dangers of fire. You should take steps to prevent fire in your home. This pamphlet points out that three out of four fires are caused by: (1) matches and care- less smoking habits (2) faulty wiring and apparatus (3) heating and cook- ing stoves (4) carelessness. This pamphlet pro- vides an illustration of a typical home and a checklist of sixty poten- -- tial hazards. } The loss of property and lives is very ser- jous. How safe is your home?

By August of this year, On- tario will host 133 of those projects with about 1,600 participants province-wide. From its beginning, Katimavik has chosen to put its objective of in- creased environmental awareness for young people into practice by taking part in forestry related activities when- ever possible. Participation in the "Tree Project" also al- lows participants to meet Katimavik's ob- jectives of personal de- velopment, service to Canadian communities and understanding of the country. A young resident of Terrace Bay, Paul Barry, joined Katima- vik about a month and a half ago. He has kept the "NEWS"' posted on his success with the programme and he will be writing to us about this fine organization in the very near future. _
