The 12-foot-by-13 and 1/2- by-eight Fire Safety House was 80% completed last week. "We're awaiting some material material to arrive," says Fireman Gary Oliver. The miniature house is the result of efforts by the station's station's crews -- full-timers as well as part-timers - who contributed contributed time, money as well as expertise into the project. Electrician Dan Butson of Mitchell's Comers worked on electric wiring inside the house last week. "He also contributed all the wiring equipment," OHt ver says.

The property of Durham Region will be based in Newcastle, Newcastle, but "exactly where no one knows yet," Oliver says. "Maybe someone has a bam where it could be stored." A circular to the Station's firemen says that the region's four education boards will print booklets on the Fire Safety Safety House, describing its chores, and that the board's principals have been appointed to a committee committee to help design "a workable workable program for tours" across the region. The part-time crew of the fire station was at the scene of a fire on a new sub-division under construction north of Bloor Street between Trulls and Prestonvalc roads on Wednesday night. An alert Courticean saw from his kitchen window "quite a big fire" in a field Hall and debated the issue of the Town of Newcastle name change. Since towns arc on a higher rung than villages on the ladder ladder of political infrastructure, perhaps it is not the Town of. Newcastle that needs to have its name changed.
