Forty years later the Fire :Marshall's Association of North America started "Fire Prevention Week" and in 1922 President Harding officially pro- claimed the entire week of Oc- tober 9 "Fire Prevention Week." Since then all children in schools are instructed how they, too, can prevent fires, This year Lucan was fortunate in being one of the places in Ontario to try out the Junior Fire Marshall program, through the assistance and co-operation of their representative Mr. Don Ranting. Each child in Grades 2, 3 and ▪ were given a "Home Report" of 18 duties to be performed at home to prevent fires. When comlileted and signed by a par- ent these were returned to the school and the child was thea eligible fora junior fire mar, shal hat and badge and his or her name placed on the honour roll. Each of Lucan's three rooms competing received a silk banner also. On Friday afternoon, an out- door program and presentation of hats and medals, was held. Speaking on how even children can prevent fires, Fire Chief Alex Young was the guest speak- er. Mrs. Art Black who was MC read the names of Lucan's 67 children who qualified for rewards. Mr, Don Basting pre- sented the medals and Mr. Young, the red plastic hats. Other invited guests were Con- stable Erle Young, Reeve and contractor Cecil Lewis (who un- fortunately could not be present) and \iiss Lina Abbott as press reporter. After the program the children were given the opportunity of viewing Luean's new fire equip- ment which the Fire Chief had brought to the school. The chil- dren needed no 'second invitation. Soon they were crawling all over the engine like red capped ants.
