Navy To Recruit Men For Emergency List

When the Navy's recruiting team visits the Island ne'xt week. they will be looking for applicants for the R. C. N. (R) Emergency list.

The Emergency List of the Royal Canadian Navy Reserve is open to ex-naval personnel. fishermen, and those who follow the sea as a profession. An emergency list man does not have to attend regular drills at the Division and thus men living anywhere in the Province are eligible. He may apply for naval training however, at any time of the year. Training is given in H. M. C. Ships and shore establishments.

The navy gains of course by hav- ing at its disposal in case of an em- ergency a number of seagoing men who have been trained in navy ways. The men gain by being able to trike naval training at full rates of naval pay during the off rea- sons when they would not other- wise be gainfully employed. Men from the ages of 16 to the mid forties (depending on rank and ex- perience) may enroll.

In-. '1'. A. Oungibell. the Pro- vincial Fire lluuhel. has announc- ed that the the loans throughout the Province were considerably lower in 195! than in 1952. Losses in 1952 amounted to M75,2M.50. In 1958 the loan was 02ll,dl8.il), - a decrease of 325,648.50. Two per- ecns lost their lives from flu in

Figures released by the Fire Mar- shal's Office show a total of 30! fire: reported in the Province in 1953. of these. 105 were in Char- lottetown with a property ion of 850,557.00. The largest fires in the Province in 1954, to date, were the Hall and School at North Run- tico belonging to the Roman Catho- lic Episcopal com. with a property loss of approximately 388.000. which occurred on July 10th. also a. fire in Murray River which originated in the restaurant owned by Mr. Milburn Buell. destroying stores and dwellings nearby, resulting in a. property loss of approximately 530,000. on May 16th.

In Summerside the property loss amounted to 3l5.'Il9.(X), with thirty-six fires reported.

One hundred and six farm fires throughout the Province showed a property loss estimated at 3105.715.- 00, caused by sparks on roofs, de- fective or overheated chimneys also defective and overheated cook- ing and heating equipment, sparks from gasoline motors. careless handling of kerosene, gasoline and other flammable liquids. and in some cases lightning. In recent years we have had many serious farm fires caused by threshing machines with blowers which blow the straw into the loft. The fire starts in the blower from overheated bear- ings, or metal to metal con- tact which causes a spark to be blown into the loft filled with loose straw, resulting in a sudden fire and a complete loss to all crop and equipment. In a fire like this. the rural Fire Departments. which are equipped for small fires only, are practically heiplus. and can do nothing other than to save the surrounding buildings. at which they have pro- ven most efficient in many such fires.

been answered quickly and effec- tively, states Mr. Campbell. It has long been the accepted idea that the fire.-man's responsibility to the community is to put fires out when they happai, but a great many of us should feel that an equally important lob is to prevent fires from happening. We note from our records that the greatest num- ber of fires take place in the months of April and November, during clean-up time when people are raking up dead grass and burn- ing up old rubbish and leaves. Thme fires many times get out of control and are the cause of many calls to our Fire Department, re- sulting in great damage to pro- perty.

By a Dominion Proclamation the week of October Iird to 9th. across Canada is "Fire Prevention Week" and dates back to 1911. Since then it has been widely and faithfully observed. In 1911, the fourtieth an- niversary of the great Chicago Fire which occurred October 8th. 1871. the Fire Marshals' Association of North America suggested

As Fire Prevention Week is sim- ed at bringing the lesson of Fire

fore the Fire Marshal has asked the local Assistant Fire Chiefs and all others in the Fire Service to live up to this years Fire Preven- tion slogan:- "Let's grow up - not burn up!"
