CARS RACE FIRE TRUCK
PO LOCAL GRASS EWE
The fire siren. sounded last Friday
afternoon just as factory men were
coming from work at 5, and the bri-
gade was called to a grass fire near
the home of Mr, Angus McAllister at
the north end of town when it threat-
te get out of control, Four or
five cars raced to the fire ahead of the
truck, and various citizens remarked
that this is a. dangerous procedure, :as
they might easily hamper the work of
the firemen. The regulations are that,
pars and trucks must pull to the curb
and remain there until the fire truck
has passed, rather than dash up the
street ahead of the truck, and that car
owners who follow this practice should
be checked up before something hap-
pens that might have serious conse-
quences.—Chesley Enterprise,
The Women's Institute held a sepc-
ial meeting on Tuesday, when mem-
bers from Brussels and Cranbrook
were also present.
Mrs. Hewson of Toronto, was the
guest speaker, her subject being "They
Call It Huinan .Nature," The speaker
covered an extensive ground in human
relations, beginning with the child in
infancy, and tracing his development
through childhood and adolescence.
She explained the problems parents
have to deal with and indicated how
they might be met. In infancy the
child's interest is only in himself, lie
must be taught gradually social be-
haviour and interest in others. Child-
ren learn best when they are happy.
Mistakes Should often be overlooked,
Home should be the centre of the
child's life, at all ages. Top virtue for
parents is patience.

cured free from The Community Pro-
gram, 206 Huron St., Toronto.
Refreshments were served following
the address. The president, Miss
Emma Johnston presided at the meet-

Hydro Launches New
Niagara Construction
A far-reaching program providing
for additional generating capacity at
Hydro's new Niagara project, crea-
tion of a water storage reservoir and
pumping plant, widening of part of
the power canal now being excavated
and other construction at the site, has
been authorized by Ontario Hydro,
Chairman Robert H. Saunders an-
nounced recently. The initial stage of
new construction will cost an estimat-
ed $5,000,000.
Designed to provide additional peak
resources in the most economical man-
ner to meet estimated load growth in
the Southern Ontario System and the
Northeastern Region, the initial stage
of the program will begin immediately
at the open-cut canal section of Sir

"The new plan provides any ad-
vantages in the way of increasing our
Power Supply," Mr, Saunders said.
"Through the use of the reservoir, we
are assured of an adequate supply of .
water to provide the maximum out-
put of our 1,200,000 horsepower plant,
which is scheduled for opera-
tion next year, When water flows from
the reservoir back into the canal as
needed, the pumping equipment is
operated in reverse—thereby acting as
a turbo-generator, In this way we re-
ceive a maximum generating capacity
of 225,000 horsepower over and above
the installed capacity of the 12-unit
plant now being built.
"By widening the canal at the pre-
sent time, and with the reservoir
available," Mr. Saunders added, "pro-
vision is made for sufficient water to
operate four additional generating
units, to be installed as required, at
the new power plant. This phase of
the work has been considered in the
design and construction of the over-
all project."
Outlining details of the plan, Chair-
man Saunders pointed to several fac-
tors responsible for the Commission's
Authorization of a "stepped-up" pro-
gram at Niagara.
"The decision to expand and inten-
sify our present work at Niagara has
resulted from a continuing study of
Ontario's whole power picture in the
light of rapidly-changing events," Mr.
Saunders stated. "Soaring power de-
mands and indecision regarding the
St. Lawrence Seaway and power pro-
ject, are major factors in launching
our new Niagara program at this
time, We cannot 'hold back the on-
rushing flood of progress that is
sweeping across this Province today,
Hydro must do everything possible to
safeguard Ontario's position, from an
electric power standpoint, for many
years to come."
