The week oi’ October 1.9 has been set aside by Royal Proclama- tion es Fire Prevention Week ior the Purpose oi! impressing upon the public consciousness the en- ormous waste of liie end property occasioned by fire end the means to be taken to reduce this tragic and unnecessary wastage.

When it is considered that Can- ada's loss by fire in i942 wee m lives and over $1,000,000 property dflmflie. it is easily apparent that something must be done about it. Fire is a disease that annually saps our national wealth and every citizen should resolve to do his bit to wipe out this menace to our happiness and prosperity.

Every citizen can be a soldier in this campaign by simply being careful with fire, by disciplining himself in his smoking habits, by seeing that every fire hazard in his home, store or factory ie re-

This week, in the press, over the radio, in theatres and Irom the platiorm, John Q. Citizen will be exhorted to use every cars with fire, not only during Fire Pre. ventlon Week but every week in the year. It would be well for him to take this advice to heart and to make Canada a. tire-sale country in which to live. We need only to call to mind two holocaus which heve occurred during the past year in order to show the tragedy which can rollow in the wake o! lire. These are the Cocoanut Grove Night Club tire in Boston in which 491 people lost their lives, and the Knights of Columbus Hostel fire in 5t. John's, Newfoundland, in which 99 lives

were snuffed out. WE CAN'T BE TOO CAREFUL WITH FIRE.
