This Happen to You These Simple Suggestions, if Followed by Everyone in the Family, Will Make Your Home Safe From Fire ! 1—Put lighted matches and smokes out before you throw them away. Keep matches where small children cannot reach them. Never smoke in the garage, barn, or attic, nor in bed. 2—Remove rubbish, waste papers and all unnecessary combus- tible materials. Provide metal ash and trash cans. Burn rubbish only in a safety covered brick or metal incinerator. Watch the fire. 3—Examine all stoves, furnaces and smoke pipes to make sure they are safe and well away from woodwork or other burnable ma- terials. Have needed repairs made at once. • 4—Value the advice of your fire chief who says that many fires are caused by dirty or defective chimneys. Have the chimneys clean- ed regularly, and have all defects repaired. 5—Escape the danger of inflammable liquid fires and explosions by keeping no gasoline in the house. Do dry cleaning with safe liq- uids or send the work to the cleaner. Never start fires with kerosene. 6—Notify the electric company of electrical trouble and the gas company of gas leaks. Replace "blown" fuses with new ones—not pennies. Avoid home-made wiring jobs. Don't look for gas leaks with a match. 7—Teach everyone in the family to be careful of fire, to watch stoves, fireplaces, electric irons and all other possible fire causes, and every day to remdve old rags, papers and other rubbish. 8—Fireproof your home as far as possible by fire -safe roofing, fire stopping in hollow walls and partitions to stop the spread of flame and a non-combustible basement ceiling. 9—Inquire of your fire chief, when buying a fire extinguisher, to be sure of getting the right kind. Don't hesitate to ask your fireman whenever you have questions on fire prevention. 10—Remember always where the nearest fire alarm box is and how to send an alarm. If telephoning, be sure the address is clearly understood. Use a neighbor's phone rather than one lipthe burning building. 11—Explain to everyone in the house what to do in ease of fire, how to put out fire in clothing by wrapping in a rug or blanket, what to do when grease catches fire in the kitchen. 12—Save life and property from needless destructionby fire by keeping the principles of fire prevention always In mind and never taking a chance with fire.

VARNA The Late John Rathwell Mr. John Rathwell, of Varna, died early Sunday morning, Sept. 23rd, in Scott Memorial Hospital, Seaforth, following a brief illness, although he had been in failing health for some time.

He had always been inter- ested in municipal affairs and will be greatly missed by a host of friends.

" nadaan HOMO*" Sii#eve„v by the lir#'.. main geographic regioAs,. Level^lfior. tilers Limited have revealed how lily«. ing eonditipns in ,moderate and I.,qw cost homes compare with each other. in different parts of Canada and with the country a$ a whole, "Food, Clothing and Shelter — the three basic needs of every human be- ing -•=Should be available to everyone, at a price which they can afford to pay and of a standard which makes. for healthy, happy, comfortable liv- ing,” iving," said C. A. Massey, Lever Presi- dent, speaking to the Kiwanis Club of Montreal recently, "This has al- ready' happened with food and cloth- ing. Why has it not happened with housing?" continued Mr. Massey. Women researchers visited homes throughout Ontario and the rest of Canada 'and interviewed housewives to find out how their homes meets basic household needs in terms of Shelter, Feeding and Cleaning. They found that Ontario houses are amongst the poorest planned in Can- ada from the standpoint of getting sunshine indoors. Equal to the na- tional average of 27 per cent of Can- adian city homes which need arti- ficially • lighted rooms during the day, Ontario city figures are exceeded on- ly by Quebec with 39 per cent. In small towns (29%) and on farms (11%) Ontario figures for gloomy rooms are the worst in Canada, and exceed the all -Canada average by 12 per cent and 4 per cent respectively. An but one per cent of Ontario city people have running water laid on in their homes. Less well off and 8 per cent worse than thenational average are small town homes, with 36 per cent deficiency. Half of all Ontario farms are similarly handi- capped, .although they outdo their fel- low Canadians, two-thirds of whom must pump water from a well, stream or other primitive source. The hot water necessary for . so many household tasks is not always conveniently obtainable from taps. More people have it in winter when furnaces are lit. In summer time, just over a third of Ontario city peo- ple have plentiful supplies at all times. Another 42 per cent have it by lighting gas, electric' or coal heat- ers, and 19 per cent must heat it 'in kettles or other containers on top o . the stove. This inconvenient method is also' used by 69 per cent of small town people and by 80 per cent of farmers' wives: • In the matter of bathroom equip- ment this province is a little better than average. Regular bathtubs are lacked' by 13 per cent of Ontario city people, by 60 per cent of small town folk, and by 66 per cent of farmers. The comparable national shortage is 18, 54 and 75 per cent. Wash basins, the other most common. bathroom piece, are to be found in four out of five city homes, almost half the small town homes, and almost a third of farm homes. Showers are rare amongst the homes surveyed and in Ontario they seem to be no more popular than in any other part of Canada. The prevalence of unhealthy and outmoded outside toilets in rural ar- eas is well known. In cities, where crowded living conditions would tend to 'multiply their effects, a national average of 4 per cent of moderate and low-cost homes are still dependent on these antiquated and unsanitary things. More significapt are the Lever regional figures, which show that Quebec alone has succeeded in ban- ishing them from her cities. Next best is British Columbia with 2 per cent, followed by Ontario with 3 per cent. Worst of all are Prairie cities, 15 per cent, with the Maritimes 10 per ce`ht a little better, though still bad en- ough. , Overcrowding, avhich is Canada's worst housing headache, has • not missed Ontario. Aggravating it are boarders, lodgers arid hired help, who live in one out of every five city homes, every eighth village home and more than a quarter of farm houses. To add to the crush, near relatives— married daughters, sons, parents, grandparents, etc.—are living with 9 per cent of city families, 7 per cent of village families and 18 per cent of farm families. This overcrowding is not all due to wartime shifts in pop- ulation, as investigators found no sur - 'plus of living accommodation any- where in Canada. A result of this convention is to be found in the number of Ontario peo- ple who report they. have •no bed- rooms to sleep in. In Ontario cities 11 per cent, in villages 12 per cent, and on farms 2 .per cent have to bed down in living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, or anywhere a cot or a couch can be made up. For a great many foods cooling is lust as important as heating is for others. Ontario leads all other reg- ions in ownership of refrigeration facilities. Grouping mechanical and ice refrigerators together, Lever's found that 93 per cert of urban dwel- lers; three-quarters of non-farm rural people, and almost half the farmers questioned have such equipment. Washing machines—more ' plentiful In Canada than in any other country —are in better supply in Ontario than in most other provinces. Laundry tubs—the stationary built-in kind— are missing from three-quarters of city homes, nine -tenths of village homes, and farm homes don't have any Most of these women use the less convenient movable metal kind that have to be lugged around, filled by hand and tipped or baled out af- ter each rinsing. In a general observation of the state of Ontario house interiors, Lev- er investigators found that more than half are cracked, discolored and in need of paint, paper and general re - ,finishing. More than one in every eight houses in Ontario cities and small towns are so ruts down that only major repairs or replacements will restore the original apli'earanee of walls, boors and ceilings. In equal- ly unsatisfactory condition are almost a gluaxtter of °Mails farm houses. • WINTUROP. Mrs. R. K. Davidson and Ronnie, Kennie and Jackie •spent the week- end in Monkton.

Canadian Homes Survey Houses crammed end to end in poorly planned ribbon development deprive householders of sunlit rooms. Over a quarter of the homes in the cities and small towns of Ontario need artificial light in some room of the house during the daytime. On farms one would expect spacious sur- roundings to ,allow sunlight indoors. Surprising, therefore, is the finding that 11 per cent of Ontario farm- houses need lights on during the day. Clustered outbuildings added to the main building are reported as the reason.
