'Phis "fall- out' is radioactive material harmful to thebody that is carried about in air currents Allowing a nuclear explosion. The booklet advises that the best way to combat the fallout is to have a fallout shelter already constructed before the attack since there is only 30 minutes from the time of the explosion to the time when the fallout occurs. The best fallout shelter can be built in the basement since it is less exposed to the air than anywhere else in the house. The walls of the shelter should be of ample width to ward off the deadly radio- active particles. Some of the materials and their. widths seg. gested by the booklet are 15 inches of solid brick, two feet of packed earth, five inches of stel, or three feet of water. If there is no fallout shelter available, the booklet states that a closet or similar small room should be used. This room should be in the centre of the house and should have a fairly high reef to keep the radioactive dust at a distance. Although these booklets are informative and helpful, only one has been ordered through the local post office. This would seem to indicate a complacent attitude toward this danger yet it is a real one. Also available at the post office are post- cards that are intended to de- termine the whereabouts of everyone in the country after a nuclear attack. The post- card has a space for the ad- dress of a family before and after an attack, Each post office has a sup- ply of these postcards to use if and when a nuclear blast oc- curs. 11112se.sesell 11(1 FFMAN Ampruknce ervice DASHWOOD 3 Ambulances 2 stationed at Dashwood 1 at Grand Bend Drivers holders of St. Johns' Ambulance Certificates Properly Equipped ALSO PORTABLE OXYGEN Phone Dashwood 70W or Grand Bend 20W 11.ntnUIN61.31.1.511,01,012MISTIOW 1 The. 171T1Ps9A0Yogatee.,'4Viv,' g9.r. 1941 11 We Are Agents For SUNSHINE ST aFFICE t 4.
