Sur- face conditions were extremely high and browning of vegetation was very noticeable. Special pre- cautions were taken by the Lake Simcoe District Staff to alert all persons to the fire danger and warnings were issued to trav- ellers in forest areas. Depart- ment of Lands and Forests staff at County Forests and other field offices were kept close to headquarters to meet any emer- gencies.» Most children like to have small res onsibilities and to help around t e home. While the small daughter wouldn't be al- lowed to dry Mother's best dish- es, there are lots of less import- ant duties that can be relegated to the small fry. And a little praise for the way the job is done, with plenty of tolerance for mistakes. will help the child to enjoy a part in the home pro- gram. A serious situation developed on Indian Reserve Lands on Georgina Island in Lake Simcoe, south of the Fire District, as a result of a fire breaking out July 13. Aided by strong winds the fire covered a considerable area in the central and northern parts of the island and for a time threatened Indian families liv- ing on the western shore. Men and equipment from various De- partment headquarters including Vivian, Uxbridge, Midhurst For- est Station. Angus Seed Plant and Zone Office at Maple active- ly assisted volunteer fire fight- ers. Royal Canadian Mounted Police and Ontario Provincial Police in taking control meas- ures. Two of the Conservation Officers also gave help. Fire Departments from nearby towns and villages, Hydro Electric Power Commission crews and others also fought the fire.in efâ€" forts to bring it under control. Considerable credit is due to Regional Forester Addison, Zone Foreman Hollidge and other Forestry stafi who fought the blaze day and night for many hours. Department equipment used included four pumps, 11.- 000 ft. of hose, relay tanks and 25 hand fire pumps. Fire Fighters Busy In Lake Simcoe District With the highways enticing the motorist out to the country. it is a good idea for drivers to read up on traffic and driving manuals. Even the good driver of long experience can often do with a refresher on the subject of courtesy. signalling and speed hazards. After years of driving thousands‘ of miles. a driver may automatically drive well but it pays to check up once in a while and not be overconfident. Industrial accidents are usu- ally due to someone's careless- ness or neglect, often on the part of the employee who does not avail himself of the protect- ive devices designed for his job. Goggles and guards for the eyes are intended to prevent injury from flying particles or from too intense glare. Regulations are planned to make the worker conscious of dangers in his job and to prevent him from being injured. If gloves are advisable they should be worn. If the fe- male worker is advised to wear a cap when working around ma- chinery, it is for her own protec- tion.

Hours after fire fighters had been withdrawn from the Island and the Provincial Police boat, used for transportation, had returned to Barrie, Depart. ment officials were still looking for the two men who had been fighting the blaze during the night. A ’phone call to Chief Lorenzo Big Canoe resulted in a search by the Indians who found Bruce and Meint still Working in the middle of the Island gath- ering up equipment and looking for smudges.

Concession IX. N. Orillia Township. The outbreak, prob. ably caused by blueberry pick- ers, had a good start and spread rapidly in the tinder dry scrub and marshy terrain. Rangers from Severn Falls and Coldwat- er with extra fire fighters had fire lines around much of the area when showers fell the fol- lowing morning, effectively checking any further danger. During the week Department staff at Severn Falls, Honey Har- bour, Midhurst Forest Station, Angus, Hendrie and Vivian fought a number of smaller out- breaks on private property which threatened forest areas. For- tunately prompt action kept ar- eas small and hazard was tem- porarily eased when showers fell July 15. ' The fire had burned over ap- proximately 500 acres and was particularly dangerous lying a few miles west of Sparrow Lake and numerous surfimer cottages. It was the first taste of fire fighting for some eight Junior Rangers who were rushed over from their summer base at Six Mile Lake with Deputy Chief Fred Atkinson.
