Wrong — says local Fire Chief Irvin Bowes. Unless special care is taken in the choice of a Christ- mas tree, he warns, a happy holi- day can turn in a flash through a blaze into terrible tragedy. The Chief urges district residents to follow these rules when choosing a natural Christmas tree: First, be sure the tree is green and fresh, To check this, test twigs and needles to ensure they are not dried out. Keep the tree outdoors or in an unheated gar- age until it is time to set It up .indoors. Then, cut one or two inches diagonally from the butt with a saw, and set up the tree in a stand which allows for immer- sion of the butt In water. Main- tain the water level to cover tho butt, Set up the tree away from any source of heat such as a fireplace, radiator, stove or TV set, Do not allow It to block access to a door or window, Never smoke near the tree, nor allow matches or candles nearby. Check strings of electric lights for frayed cords or damaged in- sulation wild' might cause short circuits, Only lighting sets bear- ing the Canadian Standards Asso- ciation label should be bought, and only non-flammable decora- tions. 'Flameproofing' of natural trees with chemical mixtures is not a safe substitute for Immersion of the butt in water, and is not rec• ommended. Candles should nev- er ewer be used as tree decorations, never anywhere in holders made from styrene foam, and preferably never at all. Though the safest tree is a fresh green one, with the butt immers- ed in water, if a tree is dried .out before it is set up in water, it cannot regain a safe moisture lev- el, If a test of flexibility of twigs or needles shows that a tree is drying out in the home, discard it, Even artificial trees present their own hazards. Afetal•lic trees, due to the danger of short cir- cuits, should never be illuminat- ed by strings of electric lights, Floodlights should be used, re- mote from the tree. Plastic trees are all made of combustible •materials, and the safest one is therefore one which would burn slowly. Gift wrappings should never bo left to accumulate near the tree en 'Christmas morning, or when- ever gifts are opened, Even a moist tree will burn if exposed to a ring of burning paper a- round the base. A dryer tree will burn furiously to a blackened stem in a few seconds, igniting all combustible furnishings near- by. Think about these things, says Fire Chief Bowes, and especially remember to keep an eye on little ,children at this time of year. Never leave thin alone for an Instant, no matter how strong the temptation to pay a short. visit to a neighbour, or make a last-minute purchase.

SUGAR and SP1cE By BW SllliI� ,, A SPECIAL CIERISTMAS GiFT Don't know how things are around your way, but there's little doubt. that we're going to have a white Christmas around here. Winter cane in like a polar bear with a toothache, and I went of to work on December 1st as though it was mid-January. Prayerfully. That is, wade through six inches of fresh snow, pray fer- vently as I try to start the car, breathe another little one of thanks when it goes, close my eyes and bomb backward down the driveway, muttering another supplication that I'll make the road, and then send up another few words of gratitude because I'd gotmy snow tires on the day before. One creature who despises the whole business as much as I is our cat, It was bad enough for iter before the snow came, Huge tomcats, black, white and piebald, littered the yard, and she'd sit on the picnic table, spitting and snarling at them with an air of chastity and virtue that is seldom seen these days. She was in command of that situation. But when I chucked her out into half a foot of snow, her first experience of it, she al- most went out of her head, Skiers are delighted, of course, and that other insidious new breed, the snow-mobilers, are beaming all over their big, fat, red faces. It's not enough that we should have our summers ruined by half-wits in motor boats and on motor cycles, tearing around polluting the %eater and the air, destroying the peace and endang- ering not only their own lives (who cares?), but those of everybody else within ramming distance. Now we have their winter counterparts. 1 can tolerate the snowmobile as a handy tool for work or for getting from one place to another under difficult conditions, But I haven's much time for those idiots who merely revel in the noise, the sense of power, and the stink, half -trained and often half -stoned, a menace to every- thing in or out of sight. I'll bet poet Rebert Frost is glad he's dead. Imagine try- ing to write a beautiful, haunting thing like Stopping By iWoods on a Snowy Evening, today. Some moron would come charging out of the woods on a snowmobile, frighten the horse; and the poet would wind up in a snowdrift. I suppose I mustn't get churlish, with Christmas approach- ing: But if any snow -mobile manufacturer thinks he can bribe me into reversing my stand by sending me one of these infernal ma- chines for Christmas, he's mistaken, I'd send it right back. In April. Hope you're in better shape with your Christmas prepara- tions than we are. Every year, at our place, the last week or so is about as organized as an Irish cattle sale, But I'll het you despise, as much as I do, those aseptic souls who buy their presents in September, have their colored lights out in November, and mail their cards on the first of December, There's something about people like that that irks me. They're of the same species as those who work with a clean desk, never lose their rubbers, and smirk, "No thanks, i don't smoke," when you offer them a fag. Perhaps the reason I can't stand them is that I hate myself, My desk looks like a (bargain counter after a sale, 1. lose gloves, rubbers, .hats, and important papers. I forget important things and remember trivialities. One of these is buying clothes, I'd rather go into the jungle than a clothing shop. I have one suit, for all occasions, one two•year•old jacket, ane pair of flannels with a hole in them. I have an old trench -coat about as warm as a silk nightie, somebody else's rubber boots, a pair of gloves with holes in both thumbs, and a golf cap for winter headgear. ,So f shall leave this column lying about ostentatiously until Christmas, Maybe my family will rehabilitate me, at least out- wardly. However, I'll 'have about the nicest 'Christmas present I can think of, and it won't he wrapped. I'll have rny dearly loved daughter home for the holidays, 9WUUIIIIIIllUGiIIIIIUIIIIIIIIU!Illl!!Illlllllllt'iIIIIIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIUWI�UUIIIIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIdh!111111111Y,UIIUIIIIIII149JIIliIIIUU!UVU'�U!LIUUIIUIUWU�IIIINt TME BLYTH STANDARD Douglas Whitmore, Publisher.

Powell Morgan was "a swin- dler with a fantalistic and synical disregard of fair and honest deal- ing" and was solely responsible for the collapse of Atlantic Ac- ceptance Corporation in June, 1045, Mr. Justice Samuel Hughes says in his Royal Commisison Re- port tabled in the Legislature this week. Powell died in 1966, but was President of Atlantic Corpor- ation. Further prosecutions may be launched on the basis of the evi- dence adduced before the Com- mission Premier John Robarts told the -Legislature in tabling the four -volume report. The loss resulting from the At- lantic debacle is estimated at ap- proximately $70 million, and this figure does not take into account losses of other companies caught up in the Atlantic failure such as British Mortgage and Trust. The report contains 19 recom- mendations for legislative action to regulate provincially chartered lending institutions. Premier John Robarts this week opposed an appeal by municipal representatives that constitutional conferences be expanded to a three-level affair with municipal- ities as full participants.. At the same time the Premier said he is planning to convene a major provincial municipal con- ference next spring, at which time urban problems will be air- ed and ways sought to alleviate them. The controversial Animal Re. search Bill was given approval in principle, by a vote of 49.39. The Bill was introduced by Wm. Stew- art back in February, and, since that time, a great .public outcry resulted from the fact that many felt their pets could now be used for research, if by chance they happen to end up in a municipal pound. The Bill provides for pound seizure of animals for re• search purposes. WESTF I EED Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Verbeek, 01 Drayton, visited on Tuesday with Mr, and Mrs. 'Peter Verbeek and family.

We will commem• orate the first coming of our Lord and Saviour. Ills Christmas con, ing. In humiliation. IIe came into our broken world. To carry our burdens and to die for sinners like we are, Over the little Child in the cradle already fell the heavy shadow of the Cross. At the same time every Christmas celebration is a reminder of the second coining of Jesus, He will return in glory. We believe, that the very same Person who before has offered Himself for our sake will come as Judge from heaven, "Tell us—what will happen to show that it is the time for your coming and the end of the age?" the disciples asked. Jesus answered, "Watch out, and do not let anyone fool you, Because many men will come in .rny name, saying, '1 ant the Messiah!' and fool many people --Then it anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Messiah!' or 'There he Is!' do not believe him—No one knows when that day and hour will come Just as in the days before the flood, people ate and drank, men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the ark; yet they did not know what was happening until the Flood came and swept them all away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes." 11111,1111 !

IN MEMORIAM COOK -- In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grand- father, Charles Walter Cook, who passed away one year ago, December 22nd, 1968, He suffered much in silence, His spirit did not bend, He faced his past with courage Until the very end. The Golden Gates stood open One year ago today, With a good-bye left unspoken He gently slipped away, But he hasn't really left us, Nor has he travelled far, He has entered God's beautiful Garden And left the Gate ajar.
