Enthusiasm was very evident

activities ' appreciated- the
splendid co:operation given.
The number of traffic accidents
'is eight, with fifty-five charges
laid.
Here's an important reminder
to pedestrians from your OPP
detachment. When you walk where
there are no sidewalks, day or
night, always walk so you're
facing oncoming traffic. iDon't
turn your ba`c1 on a 'drivel who
might•not see you in time toavoid
hitting you. Walk so you're facing
oncoming cars and be ready to
step aside • to •s,afety whehever
necessary. R'member, you: can't
avoid trouble if you can't see it
coming! -
-Anc, here's a °" recreation tip'•
. from theOPP. A lifejacket is the
most important piece cif_ safety
equipment aboard any pleasure
boat. In a situation of extreme'
hazard afloat, a 'lifej,acket -could
well be the only means of, ,,wing
your life.
The efficiency of any lifejacket
depends on its condition. A worn-
out. water-logged lifejacket could
act more like an anchor than a
lifesaver. The Ontario Provincial
Police strongly advises checking
all lifejackets at.the beginning of
the season to be sure their
buoya'ncv is still good and the
jacket ack
is
c performing its function
•properly.
• Here is a good method to test
either adult or children's
lifejackets:
Put the lifejacket ,on making
sure that the side marked front'
is over the cheFt and . that ' all
fasteners and tapes .are secured;
firmly. Then lie face down in the
water, perferably off a• beach
where you are not beyond yorir
depth; acrd let the body golimp in a
'deadman' float. If the jacket is.
properly designed and still
retains its brioyancy. the wearer
should he automatically tur%ed on
hi's•back with the face held out of
the water. If this does not happen,
•disca-rd the• jacket and buy new
• �ns.i e �'i
Its'
one. �I'tis "� l�expe
insurance. •
Test the coverings and
fastenings of the .jacket to make
sure they are strong enough to
sustain the weight of a. person if -
jumping into the ,water' from • a
dock or a boat. Deteriorated
coverings or fastenings will allow •
the material to tear ' and the
wearer will stiddenWfind himself
without a jacket as it is ripped off
by the force of hitting the water.
Check kapok -filled jackets to be
sure the vinyl inner lining is still
intact. Squeeze'the jacket and if
there is a sound of air escaping,
the vinyl has been perforated and,
the floatation device should, be
.discarded • as • kapok becomes
useless 'when�ater-soake��-" :', _
The Ontario Provincial Police
strongly stresses the 'importance .
of fitting children with the proper
size jacket according to, their
weight.
