Letter to the Editor 614 BiiuitOur Street, Peterborough, Ont. San. 31st, 1032 The Post, Brussels, Onit, Dear Sir: With this, I am enclosing postal note to cover subscrip:run for 1938. t That is the important pant of this , letter: It is not worth your while • to read the rest if you are busy. In a recent lesue of The Post, meference -was made •t0 an old sub- scriber who was renewing for the fiftieth time. May I be permtitel to remark that I have him beaten by a good margin, baying been a subscriber since I removed from the home of any , boyhood, near Brussels, in January 1331, In addition to that I have been a reader of The Post from its begin- nings, Indeed, I was present and stood by, with a number of others, in open eyes wonder and admira- tion, when the very first issue "Came off the press,' some 65 years ago. I am not just sure that, like your other old subscriber, I could not have got along without The Post, for it Is wonderful how muoh we can get along without, but the fact of my having clung to 1t all these years would indicate thee, at least, I felt that way, probably, however, it was, in lily Case, as 'much a matter of sentiment as o8 nece5'Sity. It was my good fortune to be hull. mutely acquainted with the people who gelded the destiny of the paper • for a good part of els history. I knew well the elc(till icudy boys and counted the late W. H. Kent' among the moo, intimate friends of my early years. Besides•, for shot periods, at verlc(1 114611 v'als, 1 worked 1u The Post Anielleg house, Did I sty worked?

Winter Hazards The loosening of ,bricks' and stones in copings, Parapets and other pants of buildings' by the action of freezing and thawing Is one of the less conspicuous winter hazards. Parte' of masonry, as a result of the action of frost, may becanne dislodged and in falling Cause serious injury. Periodic inelpection of walls, particularly cop- ings and parapets, should be made whenever possible, especially after a thaw. Fire-flgiti,tng equipment, such as sodaa,aoid and foam extinguishers, sprinklers and all equipment likely - to freeze, should be Ipt'olected from low temperatures. Care should be ',liken not to over- load chains, Slings or rod's. It is a fact that frost makes, metal brittle, Under such condstions it is not ad- visable to impose a loath abruptly on holeting equipment, . Overloading is always dangerous', but St becomes lemeasingly so in cold weather. When pane and walks become slippery. sand or a similar abrasive should be liberally applied. Another method fig to mix ealciratt chloride (cmmin0n seat.') with defiers or eared, When Spread over any icy placer... this cn04445 mel' -'.ng of the ice and forms a non -slip surface on w•hit'h to w- lk.

After this Is thoroughly mixed, pour it over piles• of cinders or sand being careful not to waste it by pouring more than the cinders or sand will take up, 2—Prepure a solution of brine by dissolving 50 pounds of salt in 18 gallon;) of water. This will make 20 gallons of solution. After this soluteon is uniformly nilxett, pour as much of 1t over the cinders or sand as can be obsotbed and mix thoroughly, avoiding an excess, Mix an additional 5 pounds of Baht vette the cinders or sand for each 10 gal - lees of brine used.
