In previous years. Maple residents were accustomed to hearing a siren in the event of fire. This was to call the volunteer brigade. Now. with five or six men always on duty at the hall, the call for volunteers is sounded only when more help is needed. . All regular Vaughan Firefighters are volunteers in their off-duty hours and respond to the call. The Vaughan Fire Department could conceivably be called to help with any fire in the Regional Municipality of York‘ if needed. They are called to help free accident victims from mangled cars and to wash roads of spilled gasoline or chemicals. They will respond to any emergency situation â€" provide assistance to a suspected heart attack victim until an ambulance can arrive. aid victims of drowning or conduct search and rescue operations. With the growth of industry to the south of Sherwood Hall, new and different hazards constantly arise. To be a firefighter is to be constantly learning new techniques. No two fires are quite alike. This is no job for the incautious man or for one who feels he can go it alone. The men need and depend on each other. Fear cannot be a part of a firefighter's makeup, but he has a healthy respect for the dangers involved. His job is. first, to save lives. And then extinguish the fire. How can you help these men who are ever-ready to help you? Clean your basements, workshops and garages.

The young folk at the Villa Hospitel, (in Bathurst Street are of special interest to these men. They entertain them from time to time with hayrides and parties. Finally. to clear up a popular misconception about firefighters, they do not sit around, play cards, ping pong or pool all day. waiting for the next fire.
