Sills & Sons Heating, Plumbing and Electrical Supplies Odds Drive carefully Dominion Day Dominion Day, our first holiday of the summer, is a happy time. Besides the Celebration of Canada's birthday, it means a long weekend on which most of us can do whatever we want to. We can drive to the cottage, camp in the trailer or laze around home, For the kids, it's a break after the long school year; for we adults, it's our first opportunity to really enjoy the warm weather. Our southern neighbours celebrate one of their biggest holidays on' the July 4th weekend. Tourists criss-cross the border, and highways become streams of activity. Many families pack their cars and embark on short trips. They plan outings, such as camping, fishing, boating, water-skiing, swimming and visiting tourist resorts. Their main objective is to have fun. Provincial parks are filled;privately- owned trailer camps are crammed; tents are pitched in almost any wooded area and beaches teem with Sun-worshippers. Camp outs, picnics, parties and dances are held. Everyone enjoys a holiday; to most people, it means happiness. Unfortunately, a holiday also contains some unpleasant aspects. Pleasure seekers usually leave litter behind, and overcrowded camp sites are common problems. Let's hope we don't experience a repeat of the Victoria Day weekend incidents. Littering and minor damage seem insignificant, however, when compared to the accidents that occur during a holiday. How many families will have their Dominion Day vacation marred by tragedy? On Tuesday morning, we'll hear the by Elaine Townshend statistics of how many people died - unless our names are on the list. We'll read the reports of boating mishaps, drownings, fires and carnage on the highways. What causes most accidents? Carelessness, alcohol, drugs and driving too fast - all these things contribute to accidents. All these factors begin with individuals, and only we individuals can control them. All of us share the responsibility of preventing accidents; we can't always blame the other guy. We can watch the children more closely, even though they complain that - we're nagging them. We can plan ahead; then hurrying won't be necessary. We can practice safety rules on the road and in the water. We can remain alert and use our heads. At a party, we can recognize our limitations. If we drink excessively, we shouldn't be too proud to call a cab. We can avoid unnecessary risks. -+) Sometimes we shrug our, shoulders and say, "I'll take my chances!" When we take chances, though, we jeopardize the lives of other people. We could kill or maim' someone, who didn't regard life as lightly as we do. Then, we would have our conscience to contend with. Some accidents seem unavoidable. No matter how cautious we are, they still happen. But that's no excuse for not trying to prevent them. I'll be travelling with you on the roads this week-end. I'll try to rember the safety rules, and I hope you'll practice them, too. Drive carefully; the life you save may be your own - or mine. We shouldn't restrict our precautions to the roads, though. Remember an accident can happen in any place, at anytime and to anyone. Lit's make Dominion Day 1975 a happy and a safe holiday weekend. Want to remember..... Seaforth's Centennial?
