EN and women of Ontario—it is time that we should all realize ,the terrible com- pleteness of the fire calamity that devastated Northern Ontario in the early.days of October. Fires and calamities we have had before, but'never such complete destruction as this. Over 1,200 square miles laid desolate, town after town - nothing but a bleak expanse of ruins, hundreds of farms swept bare, thousands of your fellow citizens "cleaned out" and thrown abruptly back into man's primeval struggle against nature and her grim forces: fire, hunger, . ice and the stark northern cold. Give 1,8 families Temp • nary relief m Winter -the relentless foe Coming as this terrible fire did, in the autumn, with the harvests in, with the townspeople already preparing for the rigors of winter—the complete destruction wrought is the harder to overcome. Thousands- of people at first had literally•• no place to lay their .head, little to wear and nothing.. to eat. They had to be taken care of at first, somehow, and then, desperately as the days went by, and the cold grew more intense, rough but serviceable, standard shacks, 16' x 20', have ~been 'replacing tents, old street cars, packing boxes and sheet iron -a regular food supply has been es- tablished, and rough clothing is being distributed. What can a pian do with his house a blackened hole in the ground, his barn a charred heap, his work shop a twisted pile ' of rubbish -and a northern blizzard raging over all? fighting chan ce ` to get it ` their feet. st o a r. , e asst not f}. the N rth. Temporary Relief Until Spring In the name of humanity we must see these fellow citizens through until Spring opens „lip the land and general business activities are resumed. Money must be forthcoming from the citizens of Ontario, from municipalities, industries, soci- eties, public bodies, lodges, _ churches, etc.—not for rehabilitation or re-establishment, but for the supply of bare 'necessities,. "temporary relief" in fact, to the stricken North. The Brighter Side of the Picture Everywhere throughout the fire swept district one hears only a strong, manly note of confidence, of resolution to go for ard, to "stick to the country" if body and soul can be held together,' to make good once more, to restore the hundreds of burned' farms, to rebuild the eight or ten destroyed towns—And it will, be done if the stream of temporary relief from Old Ontario does not dry up! All for One—One for All Here is a portion of our Province in ruins, and for the sake of the whole Province as well as for its own sake, this section must be restored to prosperity and happiness. We need the North, we need its vigorous, pioneering spirit so one and all, let's "give a hand into the saddle"— and do it NOW. Money is needed. The Relief Com- mittee can buy in Large quantities, get big discounts, and often free gifts of merchandise from the many manufacturers who are generously co-operating with the Committee. The exact needs are now known. The Northern Ontario Fire. Relief Commit tee has been enlarged and now is thoroughly represen- tativ,e of the . Province of Ontario. „The Provin- cial Government is co-operating to the fullest extent and 'is doing everything that a Govern- ment can properly do to assist in temporarily relieving the fire sufferers. Togive immediate relief the Cornanittee must secure actual cash without delay. ILeach municipality or county 1would devise some means of raising an amount equal•to one half mill on the total assessment the relief, can be continued. The raising of relief funds could be undertaken by public spirited citizens, clubs, churches or councils and provides a most deserving cause for Christmas .giving. Now it is -up to every community iii' Ontario to help a neighbouring district in its hour of trial.
