The only safe way . o
Never touch a fallen Wire!
' Wind, snow and sleet break down electric wires sometimes in spite
of every precaution. Shock or severe burns can result from touching
such a wire. Nevertouch a fallen wire.
Warn children not to go near fallen wires ::: but do not risk a
demonstration by trying to move one out of the way. It can be fatal!
Remember these three things if you discover an electric wire on the
ground or dangerously low:
I. Do not touch the wire under any circumstances)
2. Stay on guard and keep everyone away until
Hydro men arrive.
3. Have your nearest Hydro office notified at once:
Everything possible is done to keep Hydro wires safe in your cem=
munity. Some ... winter storms and human folly ..: ars beyond
control. When these things occur, Hydro asks your co-operation In being
careful and in warning others. By doing so you may save a life.

Our men and women back from the
world battlefields often tell how the
Red Cross was there to aid and com-
fort them—oftentimes to save their
lives. Now the Red Cross asks those
who extended such solid support
during the war years, to help keep the
Red Croons strong in peace.
Today there axe thousands of sick and
disabled veterans who need the con -
tinned help and friendship of the Red
Cross. Isolated frontier communities
need Outpost Hospitals and nursing
service—their only medical aid. Crip-
pled children's hospitals must be
maintained and expanded. Mea,
women and children across Canada
need the Blood Transfusion Service
the Red Cross has started to supply.
Will you continue to lend your help
to sick and suffering humanity? The
Red Cross work is your work:

that more would be required to re-
place the7-year-old building. which
was only partially covered by insur-
ance. It was one of the oldest land-
marks in the village. Mr. Kerr made
a futile attempt to dash into his
church to save prized memorial gifts
and records. Smoke and flame were
too much for him. The origin of the
fire is undetermined. G. R. Morrison,.
relievingg station agent for the CNR
at Brussels, saw the fire at 6.15 as he
was getting up. A west wind lessened
danger to the rectory, 70 feet away.
Firemen kept the fire from spreading
to nearby buildings.
