In Ontario in 1969 21 paseengere under the age of five were killed, and 1,514 were injured. Many of these continuing tragedies could be avoided by the use of proper restraints, but few parents make - a real effort to protect their children from the effects, of a possible crash. Same parents, through ignorance or indifference, actually expose children ,to extra danger in a car. E.g. by allowing a child to stand on the 'front seat, from which he could be thrown and seriously hurt simply by sudden application of brakes; or by holding a baby on one's lap in front, where he could be crushed in collision by the adult's body. Automotive accessory stores sell various types of child restraints, sometimes under the dangerously misleading description of "child safety seats". These have some safety value in ordinary driving conditions, since they can prevent restless toddlers from distracting or impeding the driver, or playing with door catches. But in a crash most of the child seats are practically useless. In fact, some of the seats that clip on the back of a bench seat "tee up" the child to a position where the risk of injury may be greater than if he had no restraint at all. To be effective, CHILD, RESTRAINTS MUST BE ANCHORED TO THE FRAME OF THE CAR; with recommended models this is done by using the regular seat belts. W have a leaflet, available On request, ---Cl'eaCiibing —itrions- .recornmended restraints and listing the prices and retail outlets where they can be bought. We are working to improve the protection given to children in cars, and if any of your readers who have knowledge of an infant or, young child who was wearing a child restraint at the time of a car crash would send us any relevant particulars as to its -effectiveness, or otherwise, we would be grateful. Even brief outlines would be very helpful. If possible the information should include: approximate date; description of child restraint in use; type and severity of the crash; type and extent of injuries to the child,'if any; injuries, if any, to adults in ear (say if wearing seat belts); type of car. Yours truly, F. H, Ellis General Manager Ontario Safety League. The Editor: We are seeking former personnel of No. 6 S.F.T.S.

No doubt there are readers in your area who are unaware of this annual get-to-gether and it could be suggested that those who have not received an invitation may contact me. Yours very truly, Frank Scholfield Chairman. The Editor: Much as we enjoy reading Mrs. Lucy Woods' column, we should set straight the reason the members of the Pioneer Park Association voted assistance to the Bayfield Agricultural Society. It was not to bail Premier Roberts out of his difficulties, which Mrs. Woods wrongly ascribed to Mr. Trudeau's feeling "it no longer necessary to have such competitions and showings." The fair grant was a provincial New appointments at CFB /rent, until the Axe thie year, It would. be ext remely regrettable that a fair that, has been a major event in the area for the past 114 years should succumb due to a Whim of the TrovIricial '00yerarrnent., In recent years the Park Association has had assistance from the Fair Board, members, .and this small return we hope may win time to make other financial arrangements „ to continue the operation of such an historical event.

FARM MAN SAYS CANADIAN SWINE RESEARCH AHEAD OF U.S. "Canada is in front by a country mile," said long John Wiley, new manager of the Canadian National Exhibition's vast Agricultural Department and a still youthful graduate of the Ontario Agricultural College at Guelpli. "Take triehinosis," said the man with responsibility for a square mile of C.N.E. exhibit space. "It's still around the U.S.A. Here, thanks to alert government and university researchers and tough legislation, trichinosis has been dead for years, "Canadian swine are leaner tharf their :U.S. counterparts. Canada began by breeding bacon-type hogs, while the Americans got going with the lard hogs. They're the real fat porkers. Research apart, that's why you see so many restaurant signg in the U.S.A. • advertising Canadian bacon. It's popular down there because the people recognize that it's better. "And that's why 'the C.N.E. puts up $11,000 in prize money at its Swine Show this year. The 238 hogs entered will undergo many tests. For example, the animal's backfat mutt not be more than 1,1 inches deep. "Our judges are appraisers trained by a lifetime 'of hog farming . and study. Marcel Sylvestre of St. Hyacinthe, Quebec, will judge Yorkshires, and R. G. McMillan of Seaforth, Ont., will judge the Landraces, and Also the 'Any Other Breed' 'class. These include Hampshires, Lacombes and one nitres." Swine •judging is a fascinating rite conducted in hypnotic silence. The judge strong about the huge relaxed enthrals. He Is expressionless, Watehing• farmers nudge each other if his face moves a muscle. City folk, sensing something unusual happening, trail on the fringe of the thtong. Every year there are mote of them, eyeing the judge With awe and listening fiat the deft witticisms of the farmers. The Swine Show rtths from August 26 to September CAPTAIN H. W. LEASK Captain H. W.
