It's a fact: "Seat belts save lives", and the only way to protect yourself in case of a col- lision is to be properly belted up ... adults in seat belts and children in the appropriate child restraint system. It's a fact: "Around the block can be more dangerous than freeway driving", as people take more local short trips than long distance ones. With the above facts in mind and in the in- terest of public safety, the Huron County' OPP Detachments at Exeter, Goderich, and Wingham will continue to place emphasis on both road and marine safety through the RIDE ( Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) and Marine Awarenenss Program. The Strict is Fair program has proven to be an effective method of reducing ac- cidents and death, and patrnl nff'errs will he paying special attention to impaired driv- ing, excessive speed, seat belt use, and bad driving habits with RIDE spot checks and radar units. It's a fact: The number of fatal motor vehicle accidents in No. 6 District, Mount Forest ( including Huron County) this year to July 1987 is 21 fatalities, and of these, 19 persons ( none of whom were wearing seat belts) were ejected from the vehicles involv- ed resulting in serious or fatal injuries. These deaths were attributed to excessive speed and the lack of seat belt use. It's a fact: Child safety seats reduce deaths by 90 percent and crippling injuries by 70 percent. You never know when a crash might happen or even a sudden stop. therefore, the key is to use these restraints, but use them properly.

(Anne Narejko photo) Guard your credit card number The Ontario Provincial Police is warning all credit card holders not to reveal their caro numbers to telephone solicitors offer- ing xotic vacations at bargain prices. Po,ice forces across Ontario have recent- ly been flooded with complaints from people who have received telephone pitches from Houston, Texas based travel organizations, some of which are currently being in- vestigated by American authorities. The caller, claiming to represent one of the numerous travel firms, begins the pitch by saying you have been selected, because you are a preferred bank customer with a sound credit rating, to take a trip anywhere in the world for as little as $369 (US). All you have to do is give him your credit card number and wait for a vacation package to arrive in the mail. The caller will deceptively recite the first three digits of your credit card number and you confirm it with the remaining 10 digits. Some people fall for this ploy not realizing the first three numbers are merely a regional code contained on all cards issued in your area, and the caller really has no knowledge of your credit rating. What the card holder doesn't realize until funds have been debited from the account, is that the package sent by mail contains a Purchase Acknowledgment Agreement stating details that were not mentioned over the telephone. In the event you wish to travel with so- meone, the agreement states that a second "Days of 1837" This year is a special year at Ciderfest, sponsored by the Van Egmond Foundation. It is the Days of 1837 and they have added the Feast of 1837 as well as a time capsule. On September 27, everyone is invited to join in at the Van Egmond house and par- ticipate in a day full of events marking 150 years since the rebellion. Bring a tiny item to be included in the time capsule which will be buried at 1:30 p.m. Then take a wagon ride before joining the Feast of 1837. Foods similar to those prepared by the first settlers in the Huron Tract will be served. Spits will turn all day with roast pork and turkey. Try caulcannon, a potato, cabbage and parsnip dish. Fill up flight ticket will cost considerably more, must be booked within 18 months and that your money is non-refundable. A legitimate travel firm will mail all necessary travel details free of charge without demanding your credit card number. If the offer seems too good to be true, it probably is. at Ciderfest on baked beans simmered over an open fire, old fashioned coleslaw, biscuits, almonds,oranges and raisins. Quench your thirst with cider and coffee and finish with a tempting fruit pasty as pies once were called. Come early to enjoy the now traditional events of Ciderfest.
