A propopsal for a new Athletic and Recreation Complex to be built at the Fall Fair grounds was presented to the club. The Club appointed. three members to investigate - the possibility of building a Complex and indicated if the project is One of the most tragic realities thout fire is the fact that people i think it could never happen to hem. Each year over 1,000 Canad- ans become the victims of their. 'wit carelessness. Smoking in bed, storing gasoline indoors, and failing to warn children about the danger of matches arc the three most common causes of fires resulting in deaths. Canada has one of the worst tire loss rates in the world. 70% - of these tires occur in the home. In 1973, 1,268 Canadians lost their lives in household fires. This year the death rate will probably be higher. Between January and March of 1974. 16 citizens of a large metropolitan city died as a suit of fire. Last year there were 6 deaths in this same city over a twelve month period. Fire prevention should be. radised in every home, says St. ohn Ambulance. Most of the ietims would be .alive.. today had. he simplest of safety measures een taken. It is the. safety •onseious person who is most ikely to escape injury or death. I. John Ambulance recommends iat people pay attention to the !lowing advice. It could prevent fire and save a life. Don't smoke in bed. Keep matches out of the reach children. Keep gasoline outdoors in a nperly vented container. Never leave suacepans iattended when cooking with is or oils. 'People should learn from the istakes and misfortunes of hers but don't,' says R.H. rows, Director of the Toronto ire Prevention Bureau. 'The eading causes of fire today are he same as they were 10 years go.' Mr. Brown continued to ay: 'The majority of victims are died not by flames but by smoke nd fire gases. Your family will placed first in its division. This community service awards program was established to provide recognition for outst andina projects which fulfill the objectives of Optimist Int- ernational.

Cover the area with a clean dressing, even a towel or sheet. Do not apply salves or lotions. Do not remove burned clothing. Do not break, blisters. For the treatment of minor burns, St. John .Ambulance sug- gests that relief comes by immer- sing the burned area in cold water, When immersion is not possible, towels or clothes soaked in cool water and changed frequently may be applied to the affected area. A fire can happen, anywhere anytime, It takes only minutes for a fire to destroy an entire building and its contents. 'Only people can start a fire' says Mr, Brown, 'and only people can prevent one.' Hopefully Canadians will remember the tragic deaths which have occurred and from, them learn the need of practising fire 'prevention: Hopefully they will not think it couldn't happen to them.
