Extinguish Fire Before Damage After the disastrous fire which completely destroyed the Lucan Public School on March 12, the people of Lucan were doubly panic-stricken to hear the wierd sound of the fire siren last Tues­ day forenoon when Mrs. Hunn’s chimney took fire. Fortunately the ones in charge were able to put out the fire before serious damage was done. Those who are superstitious and believe, where there is one fire, there will always be three, are wondering where the next will be. Most Lucanites are satisfied with the two.

It prob­ ably worked better than usual, recently, when Greek mule-driv­ ers had to transport into the isolated interior, roofing materi­ als needed for the construction of refugee shelters. The government purchased 2,000 tons of alu­ minum for the purpose — and incidentally licked the transporta­ tion problem. Another nice thing about alu­ minum’s lightness is that a given poundage goes two to three times as far as with other metals. It often means that aluminum, with all its advantages, actually costs less, too. Aluminum Company of Canada, Ltd.
