Proclamation
-HEREAS authoritative statistics compiled and publish-
ed by the Dominion Fire Commissioner show that dur-
ing the past ten years, 536,130 fires in Canada have
destroyed insurable property valued at 5475,000,000 and that
during the same period, 3„ti57 persons have lost their lives
and it is estimated that at least 12,000 others have been
seriously injured as the result of fire;
AND WHEREAS such losses are increasing year by
year;
AND WHEREAS humanitarian and economic considera-
Sons imperatively demand that human life and material
resources in Canada be so far as possible conserved in order
that the national prosperity may be maintained;
AND WHEREAS it is desirable that the attention Of
the public be directed to the extent and underlying causes
of the preventable loss of life and property by fire and to
the best and most practicable means for its control and that
a specific period of the year be set apart and properly
designated for the dissemination of such information;
I HEREBY DESIGNATE the week of
October 3 to 9
as,
Fire Prevention Week
('Signed) A. J. McIVIURRAY,
Mayor
Day and night, .mare dependable than ever
TODAY, telephones are four times> as free
from "trouble" as twenty years ago, and
there are twice as many of them!
Each Month 10,000 are being added so
that soon all may have dependable tele-
phone service and the security that goes
with it.
This is being done in spite of rising costs,
yet up to now there has been no increase in
the basic telephone rates established 21
years ago.
For you, this means greater value than
ever before; for us, the satisfaction of pro-
viding "the beet telephone service at the
lowest cost".
