Work on the new dam was started in Septembey, 1946. With the Queen is the lord mayor of Birmingham, Ald. W. T. Bowen, In background the Duke accompanies the lady mayoress and lord of Breceshire, Major G. T. Raikes. The dam will provide Birmingham with extra hydro-electric power.

It would have more point if there were joined to it this other slogan—"and get liquor out of Christmas." That would be quite an undertaking seeing that a writer in McLean's magazine estim- ates that Canadians will spend 55 millions on liquor in the two days before December 25th, Canadians are guilty of other wasteful extravagances at Christmas but none of them are comparable to this sinister liquor bill. The wasteful expenditure is its least odious feature. The real case against this inordinate use of liquor is that it destroys the happiness of so many families, Beyond that there is enough decent sentiment left in Can- adian people that it is an offence to them when they see the holy season of Christmas turned into the season of the big debauch. "Get liquor out of Christmas and put Christ back in." HUNTING CAN BE SAFER Ontario's wealth of wildlife is hunt ed by thousands annually, a number of these people are killed and more are injured. Careful study shows that most of these accidents can be avoid- ed. How do these accidents happen? Surely the fellow with a gun must realize he has a lethal weapon. He certainly will not shoot at something he cannot see clearly and he couldn't be so stupid as to lean on a gun with the barrel under his stomach. Yes, he could. Here is what the National Rifle Association found after studying 832 accidents reported during 1950. There were 173 fatalities; 304 hunters were within 10 yards of the gun that injured them; and.aceidents caused by victims themselves totaled 229. Of 168 accidents to deer hunters, 55 were fatal, Most accidents were caused by per- sons having 6 to 10 years experience, yet 86 persons were killed because they were mistaken for game and in 14 7deaths the victim was unseen by the shooter. These figures show that carelessness and thoughtlessness are the real causes of hunting accidents, and these simple rules are suggested: (1) Always consider a gun loaded. (2) Before you shoot, be sure of What you are shooting at and where the shot will go. (3) Never point your gun, except 16 shoot. (4) Remember that a gun itself can- not cause an accident, it always needs help from a thoughtless person. Attention Farmers!

Starting off in the first period with four tallies the Mohawks were never in danger from the slow-moving lake- siders. Johnny Crewson, ex-Mohawk player, was in the centre slot for the visitors and showed plenty of drive. Kincardine scored twice in the open- er, twice in the second period and once in the final, Everybody scored for the Mohawks, Roy Wilson had a field day and potted four goals. Biggest period for the home towners was the last with five tallies. Freddie Temple- man and Roy Dewbury were flying and netted two goals apiece. Coach Roy Bonner mixed his lines up and it really paid off. Absent were Sharpy Seli and Bill Lockridge. Dew- bury, Templeman and English were outstanding as were Wilson, Murray Stainton and Morley Chinn. Johnny Crewson had the doubtful honour of being the first man to be knocked out of the rink when Jack Pym blasted him through the door at the end of the arena.
